Simple Scenario Creation Questions

Post by springer »

I've been playing around a scenario design in AT.

I'm sure these are answered somewhere in the tutorials, but I somehow seem to be missing them.

1. How does one save a masterfile?
2. When creating reinforcements, can a predef unit be assigned a particular headquarter unit.

Thanks

Here are my 2ct:
1. Masterfiles are denoted by *.ptmaster so saving in this format will create a masterfile.
2. I think the unit gets automatically assigned to the closest own HQ. Ties goes to the HQ with the lowest number (i.e. those created earlier). I do not think this can be overridden or reassigned except manually. But I admit this answer is more an educated guess...

Thanks Lunaticus!

It's funny how the answers can be so obvious once they're explained: I don't think I ever pulled own the file options in the save menu.

Your explanation on the HQs makes sense to me. I was looking over the code in one of the games and it looked like it was based on a nearby HQ. Since I'm playing with the HQ being part of the reinforcements, I should be able to set it up so that I put down the HQ first and then hope the units default to it.

Thanks so much for the quick feedback.

By the way, I think the idea of having multiple AARs for the World at War is an excellent one.
