v1.03 Release Candidate thread

[thewood1]

So I am dense...does the accel setting matter at all. I am not sure what each stage of accel means in non-impulse.

So I am dense...does the accel setting matter at all. I am not sure what each stage of accel means in non-impulse.

With pulse mode and hi-fi off this is what is going on...
1:1 - 1 tick = 1 second
1:5 - 1 tick = 5 seconds
1:15 - 1 tick = 15 seconds

That goes all the way up to 1 tick = 30 minutes. Hi-fi changes 1:1 from a tick every second to multiple ticks per second.

If you try to play a large scenario on 1:60 or 1:300 things tend to slow down a bit because a lot more stuff is going on under the hood per tick. The pulse mode makes it easier to run your game at higher time acceleration factors.

[thewood1]

"That goes all the way up to 1 tick = 30 minutes. Hi-fi changes 1:1 from a tick every second to multiple ticks per second. "

This is the part...how much does each change in the level of accel in the drop down effect the actual time in the game.

btw, I have played the game since release...I know how the standard accel works. That is why I explicitly stated non-pulse.

Excellent update - thanks a lot.

Out of interest, where are you heading for by including the World War II-era platforms? Is the plan to flesh this out into a full World War II/pre-1945 database?

This is the part...how much does each change in the level of accel in the drop down effect the actual time in the game.

Well the normal acceleration factors are already there, and that's based off one tick a second. The devs tell us:

"Enabling this option leads to two changes:
* At any time acceleration setting, the map & UI do not refresh every second but every 0.1 sec.
* The sim engine executes each turn not in "pulsing" mode (to emulate Harpoon's presentation), but as fast as possible."

So instead of a once a second it's ten times a second, so 10x the time factor. At least that's the way I see it. I'm fully aware that I may be wrong though, one of the devs will have to confirm this [:)]

[thewood1]

OK, while I appreciate your trying to help...telling me how the previous system works and repeating what the devs have already said isn't getting me anywhere. I have been hoping to hear something official.

Hi mikmyk
One Country from 1971 -Abu Dhabi can be deleted from DB3000
Abu Dhabi and UAE both have ships. aircraft, facilities and weapons in
DB3000 (funny not identical)
Barny

Thanks, wil fix that [8D]

[ComDev]

Have created a new ticket on the u-boats and assigned to Paul [8D]

Will have a new look at the Su-7 as well when time permitts.

The F-16 and F/A-18 single and two-seaters habe identical range for the sake of simplicity.

ORIGINAL: rafale

Thanks for so big update
I checked few new things and have questions:

U-boat type 7c:

surface:

CMANO DATA
creep 5kts - time/range: 1m 2d
cruise 8kts - time/range: 1m 2d - why the same in different speed???
full 15kts - time/range: 15w 1d - impossible

should be: cruise speed 10kts - time/range: 1m 6d (because 8850nmi@10kts)
max speed 17kts - time/range: 8d 11h (because 3450nmi@17kts)

submerged:

CMANO DATA
creep 3kts - time/range: 1d 2h
cruise 6kts - time/range: 6h 40min

I found 4kts@80nmi and 2kts@120nmi, it gives
creep 2kts - time/range: 2d 12h
cruise 4kts - time/range: 20h


U-boat type 9b:

surface:

CMANO DATA
creep 3kts - time/range: 1m 2d
cruise 5kts - time/range: 1m 2d - why "oceanic" 9B has lower travel speeds than "coastal" 7C???
full 9kts - time/range: 3w 5d - why 9kts is the max speed for 9B??? how can I pursuit cargo ships and tankers??? max speed for 9B is 18kts

should be: cruise speed 10kts - time/range: 1m 20d (because 12000nmi@10kts)
cruise speed 12kts - time/range: 1m 5h (because 8700nmi@12kts)
max speed 18kts - time/range: 8d 11h (because 3800nmi@18kts)

submerged:

CMANO DATA
creep 3kts - time/range: 1d 2h - why the same as 7C???
cruise 6kts - time/range: 6h 40min - why the same as 7C???

I found 4kts@80nmi, it gives
cruise 4kts - time/range: 16h


and
U-boat type XXI:

surface:

CMANO DATA
creep 2kts - time/range: 1m 2d
cruise 5kts - time/range: 1m 2d - why "oceanic" XXI has lower travel speeds than "coastal" 7C???
full 10kts - time/range: 3w 5d - why 10kts is the max speed for XXI??? how can I pursuit cargo ships and tankers??? max speed for XXI is 15kts

should be: cruise speed 10kts - time/range: 2m 4d 14h (because 15500nmi@10kts)
cruise speed 12kts - time/range: 1m 10d 2h (because 11500nmi@12kts)


submerged:

CMANO DATA
creep 2kts - time/range: 1w
cruise 5kts - time/range: 8h 40min - with this speed XXI could go nearly 3 days (340nmi) not few hours !!!
full 10kts - time/range: 2h 30min
flank 13kts - time/range: 1h

I found this:
4kts 420nmi
5kts 340nmi
6kts 280nmi
10kts 110nmi
12kts 60nmi
15kts 30nmi
17kts 11nmi, it gives:

creep 4kts - time/range: 4d 8h
cruise 6kts - time/range: 2d
full 10kts - time/range: 11h
flank 17kts - time/range: 40min

thanks for everyone who reed all above, I will be very happy if some u-boats data will be corrected in future

PS: still have hope some days Su-7 will be corrected as I wrote before
*400liter for ferry - why??? 600 or 950 only
*su-7b and 6xfab-100 - su-7b NEVER had 6 hardpoints, only su-7bkl and later also on older su-7bm/bmk
*F-16C and D the same ferry range and fuel capacity - how its possible?
*F/A-18C and D the same ferry range and fuel capacity - how its possible?

thanks to all for keeping CMANO up to date, its hard work but I never seen before so good and fast customer service

if you will found

If I want to download and install v. 1.03 Candidate 2, do I have to first do the same with candidate 1? Or can I just skip it?
