1108r5d Fixed Use Manchuko + Korea hex ownership to determine garrision [MEM]

As the original garrison value covered NW control zone, have changed the garrison check to match same as original but is concentrated to units in hexes that belong to Manuchuko and Korea (as per pwhex).

Updated 1108r5e - earlier version only counted garrisoned bases rather than any hex

Just install the beta. It replaces the EXE and runs. Not that it creates its own shortcut on desktop but without any proper switches. You will need to add your preferred switches (like -f -cpu ...) to it.

Status: offline 		Would it be possible to have the British carriers and other combat vessels that arrive in Colombo via the reinforcement track moved to arrive in Aden instead in one of your future updates? As things stand now, if Japan takes Colombo they basically sink those ships since they’ll never arrive in game once the port changes hands.

Thanks for all your hard work, it's greatly appreciated.

Jim

Is it possible to do likewise with the SHIP withdrawal units?.......At present, to withdraw a ship, one must write down the ships one needs to withdraw, leave the "Intel" button, and manually track all those ships down indiviually..

Just seems the "man in charge" might be able to disband them by radio/teletype as quick as withdrawing/disbanding those planes??

46 hexes is pretty far for 20 DDs..and those DDs drink fuel a lot..repeat, a lot. Especially if they are short-range ones.

20 dd need 50 000 tons extra fuel for 46 hexes?? sorry but that way too much i think. i expect there is a bug somewhere in the fuel use system. or should it be that way: japan can´t move ships anymore unless you storage million tons of fuel for a 1 month fighting campagne with its fleet ? if that is wanted the japanese can´t move more than 20 hexes away from there bases so an attack is not possible not e defense nothing goes anymore !!!

My first thoughts are a little different than Sardaukar's. First off, the fill-size CVs and the BBs drink fuel at the fastest rate. You've got 13 of those plus another 10 CVLs/cruisers. The DDs will need to refuel a lot because they have small fuel tanks, but they use far less per mile than the big boys. 46 hexes is 1,840nm certainly a long distance but not exactly clear across the ocean.

So my questions are, what speed was the TF running: Full Speed or Mission Speed (which means Cruise Speed most of the time)? Were all ships fully fueled when they started out? Did any other TFs wind up in the same hex with them at any time (those TFs could have refueled from this TF)? Anything else going on in that area you might mention?

and more then 50.000 t extra full in the Ao´s.
After the 41 hex the Ao´s was empty and the  other ships at ca 20 %.

Status: offline 		This is not making sense to me. The numbers under "Endurance" on the TF display are in nautical miles. So, if that TF (as you describe it) had full bunkers it would not have even needed the fuel in the AOs. The DDs would have refueled, but they could do that from the larger ships.

What date did the TF leave Truk? Is it possible that it did refuel other TFs, especially say at Truk (which tends to have lots of traffic)?

Yes, but my request is specific to the "Scheduled Withdrawal" List..I am asking if there might be a way to allow withdrawing those ships while I am there, within the withdrawal list. Otherwise, I need to go to the "Ship Withdrawal list", write down what needs to go, then locate the ships, then back out of that list to go to the ships list, etc.

Don...You know I feel you are the font of all Known Wisdom....the Master of Space and Time........and I sure approach you with a true hung dog look, but I still feel my request is worthy of some considerations?

Then again....maybe the Wizards of Wargaming have less talent than I believe?..(Say it ain't so, Joe)!!!!

What version are you using? [Edit: looks like 1108q?? so is a beta]
Nothing has been changed in regard to fuel expenditure in the last round of betas as far as I can recall.

Status: offline 		This isnt strictly related to the beta, but I thought I would ask anyway on the off chance that it is possible...

Would it be possible to extend the length of the name field for devices? Its currently limited to 19 characters in the editor, however I think 20 might be possible by setting it in the CSV files. Would it be possible to increase this at all? Even a few more characters would go a long way, although something like 25 would be incredible. There seems to be enough space in the ingame interface.

Well they might, but that's related to the size of their bunkers/fuel tanks. They still should not use an astounding amount of fuel over that distance at cruise speed.

And even though, as Michael said, there are over 60 ships or whatever in that TF, the report is they all had full tanks at Truk and all the AOs had full fuel cargo. It really sounds like there is something that the player notice see - other TFs refueling from it at sea, or something.
