Matrix Games Forums

I have attempted to use the Chance of Occurrence option several times and regardless of whatever percentage I enter, the unit ALWAYS appears. It doesn't matter what scenario I'm playing. If you use the option, the unit always shows up---even at 1 percent.

Just so that we are clear, I go to the EDITOR and Add A Unit on the map. Next, I go over to UNIT ORDERS, and scroll down to SCENARIO EDITOR, and slide over to CHANCE OF APPEARANCE. I then enter the desire percentage for the unit and click OK. (NOTE: The program WILL NOT allow me to merely type in the desired number. I must start with 1 and click UP all the way until I reach the desired number. Perhaps this has something to do with the issue.) I then SAVE the change under a different name, and reload the scenario. In any case, upon reloading the scenario, regardless of how big or small the percentage number, the unit ALWAYS appears. Regardless of the scenario selected, the unit ALWAYS appears.

Is there something wrong, or is there something that I am not doing properly?

Thanks in advance.

A save file would eliminate the need for the following question.

Are you opening the scenario in editor mode? If so, chance of appearance is ignored--otherwise you would have phantom units that are there sometimes and not others when trying to edit scenarios.

Apache,

There is no need for the save as your explanation resolved the issue.

As indicated, I was using the Editor to play the game, therefore each unit always appeared, regardless of the listed percentage.

I verified what you said by going through the Game, rather than the Editor, and the Percentage of Appearance worked perfectly.

You may close the ticket as it obviously works as designed.
