Problem with properties of units in editor?

Post by kROOTki »

Hi everyone.
In editors (PDE, WAW and PT) can't get property informations (properties) when clicking right mouse button on unit.
When I choose "Properties" I get empty info about ID, owner, controller and combat values or sometimes get informations about another unit - not about highlighted.
In old battlefront's versions it's works fine but in new from Matrix Games i have this problem.

Very odd... is this for a default campaign or a custom campaign? If you try it a few times in a row, with different units as well, does it eventually work? Or is the issue consistent no matter what is attempted?

I have the same issue. In the default campaigns, when you click on properties for a unit in the editor, there is no information visible. The issue is consistent. In the 1947 Russians are Coming campaign, all of the US information is blank and the Russian information has data. In other campaigns, all the information is blank.

I have this problem in default and custom campaings.
For example in 1941_42 Philippines:
coordinates [37,13] 11th Division - no informations
[37,16] 21st Division -> informations from [38,18] 71th Division
[38,19] V Interceptor Cmd Fighters - no info
[39,19] 26th Cavalry - no info
[40,20] Provisional Tank Group -> properties from 41,21 Wainwright HQ
etc.
For naval units:
[20,7] -> properties from [20,8] but not always[&:]
Strange.

The help desk said I should ask the forum? They said they don't know enough about the games? What's going on with the great service? What is the fix for this problem?

Maybe more information is needed?

Yes, it is with the Production team at Matrix and should be available hopefully soon as an official update.

Great news! It's amazing to see a 12 year old game still get worked on. Thanks Hubert.
