Small bugs in v208

Post by Gribeauval »

Hi,
I have played a full scenario with version 2.08 and I have noticed these things.

1)The AI has fired minelets in an hexagon that was occupied by some of my units. I lost 1 tank during this attack. But, at the end of the phase, no minefield symbol appeared on the map.
During the next phase, I got a message warning me that the reminding tanks had cleared the minefield in the hex and a cleared minefield symbol appeared on the map.

2)When an helo is resupplying, I get a message (in the message log at the bottom of the screen) without any estimated end time.
For instance, I can read "2/2nd GTA Attk Helo new orders : resupply in 3771 starting at 1039hrs and with estimated finish at hrs".

3) I can't plan a "circular" move : I want to order a recce unit in hex A to move in hex B (1st waypoint), then in hex C (2nd waypoint) and then in hex A again (3rd waypoint).
I get only two waypoints (B and C).

4) The R&W tab is not updated : a plane coming in 20 minutes is still listed as coming in 150+ minutes (150 being the value at the beginning of the scenario).

5)I don't see in the player tab : 0[LSA:8], but 0 of 8 (when I play with limited staff order rule).

Anyway the game is excellent and very hard to master. Thanks for your work.

#1 and #2 we will need to look at.
#3 Try clicking off the edge of the unit in the hex. Clicking back on the unit completes the order.
#4 Those times are minutes elapsed from game start and do not update. Once the fight has gone 150+ minutes the plane will be on station. We are looking at both ordering the list and maybe even having an active countdown for 2.1.
#5 Working as designed. You only get the LSA:x is you are NOT playing limited Staff Allowance. If you are you get the X of Y display already.

Thanks for the post. We'll look at the first two and see what is up.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
