Status: offline 		Hey,

I've been going through PE and adding missing Chinese air force bases. Yesterday I tried just adding one base and it worked fine. I went into SE and I was able to add the new base. Since I thought I had it worked out I went into PE and added another 40 missing bases. After I export non of the new bases show up in SE. I've gone over the new data over and over again and I don't see any errors.

Here's the database with all the missing Chinese air force bases (some of the training/cargo bases left out). I would like to get this sorted since I spent hours working on this.

You can see what I've added under edit installations then sort by ID AthruZ and the last 80 or so entries are the new bases.

Thanks!

You did nothing wrong. there´s a limit for Annex entrys.

Status: offline 		What constitutes an annex that the 2047 limit applies to. Is this just bases; or bases, subs, ships, and aircraft; or all of those plus missiles, sensors, loadouts, and any other records in the data base?

Does this mean that we should not be adding new items to the data base (ie. it is full) ?

TIA,

Smitty

You´re right

Some versions ago you needed 1 installation per side. This was changed when the neutrals were introduced. So in theorie nearly 50% of the bases could be deleted. But this would break 100% of the scens containing bases, written before this change. And some of the newer ones too.

Regards René
