Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

Having just drove my tanks over a minefield, I also think 3.4 is enough losses: a unit would realistically stop dead in its tracks before losing more than 33% of its combat strength in a minefield. Yep, while western tanks had usually adequate radio communication, eastern tanks usually lacked them ...

Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

February 5th, 2023, v10 Fixed the submarines' battery-recharge DL in post#1 as always. That was a silly oversight of mine that the game still added the left-over charge to the base value. The subs always recharge now to their base value no matter if you let them resurface manually or when they are ...

Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

I've made enough notes about my code changes, so no problem. There are tools to compare files, so it's even easier for game files as long as you make backups of each version. If you want to compare an old csv/txt with a new one, you can use this: https://text-compare.com It should still be enough fo...

Re: [Allies Victorious] Remagen

The trigger checks for > 5 land-units that completes if you gather 6+ units on Turn Start there. I've rebuilt this trigger on my test map out of curiosity where it can complete fine enough.

Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

I see this "Start Briefing" tooltip with the active button possibility on the looped animation in a very old game version, but the whole UI code was revamped someday, so it's not really possible to copy over some old data (if you actually know which one what is another story). This looks t...

Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

Bru, the solution is possible within the TC_UnitCount class, but if you take a look at all of this yourself then you realize like me that it's best not to touch anything there. :lol: TC_UnitCount.jpg Like with so many other issues, I wouldn't even know where and what to start changing something.

Re: OoB v9.2.5 - Fixes & Tweaks

Tested the F & T-version in a current multiplayer game. The mp-server does not complain about edited files. Hoho, so much about cheat-security! I could possibly disable the Multiplayer-button, but as long as at least half of these fixes, excluding my changes, aren't officially patched, maybe so...

Re: [Gameplay Bug][Mines reveal concealed units][1.0.0+]

The word "enemy" is missing in front of these sentences to make it clear.
Otherwise, enemy faction mines prevent upgrading units and also prevent flanking, like regular enemy units.

Re: [Mapper Bug][Campaign Scenarios][Reveal Mines for AI triggers][Serious!]

It's okay now, I revealed this as cheat now.
I'm going to rename the topic and let's be done with it.
I'd still like to keep this floating around as information reminder.
I don't think you really want this topic to be moved to the main forum either. :lol:

Next time add a sticker to your DLC advertisements: Warning: AI is heavily cheating due inability of the game developers! Buy at your own risk! This is not about a particular scenario. All three Soviet campaigns are pestered with that cheating! I don't want to know how often this was done in other c...

Re: [Gameplay Bug] [US Pacific, Pearl, spawn error ] [v9.0.0]

I'm afraid this issue is becoming an X-file. Spawn-Bug.gif While I could reproduce this on the Pearl and my tiny test map, I couldn't on my other regular test map. I've removed all land units below just to be sure. While the plane can spawn anywhere on a free hex on my regular test map, it can't any...

Good idea with the transports ordering, also I have also created a couple of transports based on recon units, which can easily be mixed up.

Re: WINTER UPDATE ?

As next step, you could better sort these newzealand, south_africa, some German, and other allied units that were thrown lazily at the bottom of the csv file with the latest Allied DLCs. Someone was fed up of the game, as it seems. The order in the csv is also the order you see in the purchase scree...

Re: [Gameplay Bug] [US Pacific, Pearl, spawn error ] [v9.0.0]

No idea, but I can't get this reproduced. I ran the scenario from the editor. It's my modified one, but I'm pretty sure I have absolutely not touched these triggers. I set all AITasks to Idle and placed a jap recon plane above each of these three airfields for a test. These allied planes seem to spa...

I don't see anything wrong about the plane triggers.
I have also definitely gotten this Volkssturm event when I played this scenario lately. I remember the picture well.

Re: Allies Victorious/Bulge missing event text

I ran the Buldge scenario with my fix from the editor without deploying any units. The jeep crashed right into an occupied settlement during turn 1, but not sure if this is possible in vanilla mode. The event popped up when the player finally could make its turn after some minutes of boredom. Geezus...

If you like to see the ultimate confusion here in the Red Storm Berlin scenario: So the Rail bridges trigger handles the mine revealing once at scenario start. Hooray, it's correct (by mistake)! And the infinite Ger reveal trigger lets all the bridges on the map blow up every turn. Someone must have...

Re: Allies Victorious/Bulge missing event text

Removing the Check Turn condition and changing the Trigger Event from Turn Start to Move Event should work better for such visibility conditions. It's always possible that the player can detect and annihilate such weak unit within the same turn before a new turn starts to trigger such event. Decepti...
