Hi
A few questions/queries.
1) I have been trying to export a CSV of a filtered LCU production screen however the "Use filter..." tick box does not seem to work as my exported CSV does not contain the same data as whats displayed on screen. E.g. no 'Planning for' field amongst others.
LCU Production screen is different to LCU screen. LCU Production does not have Planning for ...[edit] So you've got to select LCU not LCU Production for the CSV generation...
2) Is it possible to copy and paste chunks of data from tracker?
Some you can by selecting the fields and then using Cntl + c (copy) and Cntl+v (paste). The LCU area's cannot.
3) Slightly off topic as its related to the info in your economic primer document - i think the bits below in bold is tracker specific.
With PDU 'on' and Realistic R&D 'off' how exactly do Factory Upgrades for Airframes work? Does the factory ALWAYS upgrade to the airframe type shown in tracker (i'm just looking at the turn 1 data) regardless of what you may have changed the factory production too, in this circumstance is the tracker factory upgrade info just not relevent? I have read the info in your economic primer document but can't get my head around how the process works. Please could your document include a little more detail on this?
Sure I can flesh it out more...PDU is for airgroups, R&D is about aircraft upgrades NOT groups(mostly). The factory does always upgrade to the one shown in Tracker NO exceptions (unless you manually change it - which means loosing all the repaired factories).
OK - I'll write more if I can get more of a handle on what you don't get... PM me if you like.
[edit] Having read your message again - Do you mean that what ever you do to a factory it will upgrade to the factory designated in Scen design? No - it is not that intelligent. What I mean is that the factory will upgrade to the next production factory (if there is one and 'keep' is OFF) from the present factory.
So if I change it from the M2 ( which would upgrade to the Sen Baku) to the D3A2 the factory would eventually upgrade to the Myojo.
R&D is different; you can change the factory at any time but unless you work along the upgrade path you'll lose your repaired factories (must be fully repaired). These factories don't auto-upgrade but using realistic R&D will become production factories which can upgrade, unless you change them to a future R&D aircraft.
4) I am thinking about trying to pull off LCU info filtered by Army to help me get my head around what units i have and what they should plan for. Would it be helpful for tracker to have the TF info in a column of its own rather than included in the 'Location' column to aid sorting data?
Probably - but we probably won't do it. Remember you can also extract csv info for first turn data by using witploadae in the SCEN folder.
5) As a final thought, and after reading your economic primer any news on 1.9 yet
Many thanks
Closer than you think, but further than you might want [;)]
