Has the strategic bomber movement been looked at? Currently I can't move strat bombers with strategic movement points.
Thanks

[gwgardner]

I'm disappointed that the feature for showing where commanders are located hasn't been added (showing unit name AND hex coords).

Otherwise, kudos for all the improvements.

[Magpius]

F5=thanks

Please also include Bleck's change for moving the text order in the GUI, (he'll know what I'm gabbling about).

ETA?

[Razz1]

Yes, please fix the strategic bomber re-deployment.

I'm waiting for the ai5.cpp:835 to be patched.

ai5.cpp:835 is fixed [:)]
Could you direct me to the thread where strategic bomber re-deployment problem was mentioned? I'm not sure if we already fixed it and would like to check it.

[vonRocko]

The thread was titled " How do I transport air units?".

[Razz1]

Here is one link and GWgardner confirms this problem too.

tm.asp?m=2506113

tm.asp?m=2505081

What about the Attu and Nikoleye amphibous landing? That should be fixed and in the read me file.


EDIT: here is a new snap shot. I think the table is mixed up. I can not fix it, I've tried.

[Bleck]

Strategic bomber strategic moves bug is also fixed.

[Anraz]

Gary if something has slipped unnoticed... well there will be another and another patch... This one should be within a few days as a beta version. Maybe even faster. I can almost feel it

[gwgardner]

What does it feel like?

[Scott_WAR]

edit- nevermind, answered in another thread.

[Anraz]

It feels like a step int good direction!

[jomni]

Any big change that will make playing an old saved game unstable?
I'm planning on doing the workaround for this.

[Razz1]

Yes, you have to have two installed games folders if want to play the old one.

The map has changed for the Pacific Campaign.

[doomtrader]

@jomni, we have added new locations to the map, so if you wish to continue your play, you have to keep your old Pacific Campaign folder.

[Razz1]

umm.. today is Wednesday and no patch.

[Anraz]

We are working on it.The last remaining action for us is to track down one bug and eradicate it....

BTW Have a look at the screen:

[Razz1]

That's very nice.. I was hoping to something aggregated like all the BB's and CA's listed togeather.

What would be nice is to use the last column with the type of ship and the ability to click on the header and sort it.

This way when you know there were 8 BB's in Pearl harbor you can do a sort by type and easily tell how many have been sunk and how many are still in the game.

Those bugs are nasty..

Here's some good luck [&o]

A great first step.
But I noticed there is some space left for more columns like Air & Ground Combat Losses. [;)]

Would be a great addition to the game in a future patch imo.
