Supply Dead Zone in North Africa 1941 Scenario

Post by RocketMan »

Why is there this supply dead zone for the British in the North Africa 1941 Scenario?

Has it just been captured that turn? If so, it will convert (for lack of better) word in time for your next supply check.

If captured previously, might be a bug.

Those hexes have been controlled by the British since the start of the scenario.

The previous turns supply levels:

The supply calculation for that whole area is screwed up. Red numbers show what supply should be in the areas that actually have supply.

Is there an HQ in range? That would explain the difference between white and red. An HQ bring the hex supply level by 1 to all hexes that have 7 or less (including zeros).

Yes there is a HQ there. That would explain all the differences except for the 1/4 and 1/5 in the leftmost row on the bottom.

I got it. This is going to take me a bit to figure out why it is doing this. Never had this happen before. That supply depot should extend the main supply out

Naw I recreated it with a new scenario. Very strange. The code looks right. Something I am missing. I will modify the save if need be and send it back. Give me a few days. Looking at this now and it should spread it out.

It does it for the Axis the same way crossing the desert with those 3 depots so no reason it shouldn't do it here I can see.
