May be minor. But it is a bug.

Large ATR with no Para drop symbol allowed to Drop Para unit.

.I ran into a similar situation, but discovered the right option was not on or off to enforce the icon that paradrops are not allowed with that type of ATR. Can't check that at the moment, but you could check that yourself.

I don't see any option that negates the "no Paradrop" symbol found on a ATR air unit.

Here are the options in play.
Maybe I am not reading something correctly?

You actually need to add a option in order to "activate" the "no paradrop" symbol. You need the option bomber and no paradrop ATRs on. Without that option on the "no paradrop" symbol has no function.

Thanks Orm. At least you made it clear.


(Pretty damn confusing and annoying. Having a symbol on the ATR that only exists for a single option.

Being a computer game its not possible to create a counter to fit the option. Lots of other options look to be coded that way.)

Considering that counters can change when units are captured or Territorials change sides, the ideal fix would be to remove the symbol when the option is off.

I suggest that be added to the list to be done right after the AI (or maybe right before). [;)]

I'm thinking you need two counter sets with this mod. One for when the option is on, and the other for when it is off.
