Have the number place names been increased?
What is the limit on place names? (and where is this written in the manual?)
Section 17.1
Danke. Well, I see why I din't find it. I did the totally illogical thing of searching for place names instead, of, obviously, named locations. [:D]

Yeah, I shouldn't have even asked. I have trouble playing scenarios with the current maxed out map size. :) Although an increase in the max number of units could be nice to break down units in TGW 14-18.
To repeat history in a game is to be predictable.

You kept the old Opart300 limits for map and units? [&:]
300x300 and 2000 units per side. I need to rework the code that figures out how to get from point A to point B before expanding the map size, otherwise supply and other calculations will take even longer.[:@]
Now that the supply calcs have been sped up, is there a plan to increase the map size?
Yes, I think I can speed them up by between 10 and 100 times by using the new pathfinding code in a future release, but how did you know about that?

Well, I'm smarter than the average bear.

Sorry. There are occasional advantages to being a rabid capitalist hyena.

I'm coming around to this. 300x300 hexes is enough- but doubling the number of units would help in some situations.

Of course in TGW you could just jump into the editor and delete some of the nonsense or ant units...
"What did you read at university?"
"War Studies"
"War? Huh. What is it good for?"
"Absolutely nothing."
