Supply question

Post by elmo3 »

See the attached screen shot taken in supply mode. Not sure why the rail line hexes are not green like the rest of the hexes? Is it a rail conversion issue? It's all German controlled territory. I see other rail lines in German controlled territory that are green. I don't see any way to convert rail lines in the editor. Is rail line conversion implemented?

If you send me the files, I can take a look in the advanced editor, and see what is going on?

Of course you can also wait for Vic :)

Whats the actual supply AP cost on those rail hexes?

It might well be 0 hence the different color. White = 0 AP cost.

Best wishes,

Supply cost is indeed 0. I notice other rail hexes not directly connected to AGC are green but also show as 0 points when I mouse along those rail lines. So I guess only the directly connected hexes are white even though others are also 0 points.

That is because what you are seeing is the "cost" of supplies reaching a destination. The hex color indicating the cost is within what range. When something has 0 cost, it accumulates to nothing, but, you still will have accumulated what was before that point.

OK, I see what you are saying. I guess that 0 rail line from AGC is not really pure white because of the off green plains background color. The other hexes are all green as you describe due to accumulated cost.
