Weather forecast

Post by tyronec »

Under the latest patch, the weather forecast is apparently for last week and this week !
The game is on 30th November.

The lark, signing its chirping hymn,
Soars high above the clouds;
Meanwhile, the nightingale intones
With sweet, mellifluous sounds.
Enough of Stalin, Freedom for the Ukraine !

This is not new in 1.04.05, and in fact has come up several times on the forum. The reason you see the dates you see is because the weather changes at the start of the Soviet turn. So the Germans are actually looking at the weather as it was reset during the prior Soviet turn, thus the date displayed. The forecasted weather is what is expected to happen after the German ends his turn. Yes, confusing, and maybe we should have coded it to display differently for the German player, but it's WAD.

I would like to take this opportunity to point out that the map is difficult to read. What I sorely miss are prominent landmarks such as large cities or perhaps regions. The coastlines are not enough to get a quick overview of the weather. In particular, I find it difficult to estimate where my main battle line is and what kind of weather there is.
It would be ideal - if I may express this pious wish - if you could see the course of the frontline on the weather map. That would be perfect, but it will probably remain a wish.
Thank you very much for your understanding.
