Sometimes air ground attack with friendly LCUs in hex wouldn't rebuild list of units in hex to get the enemy ones.

Latest patch, Aug. 1942.
I think the carrier was either the Wasp or Hornet in a single carrier TF.

Any chance for a filter that shows idle(no loading or unloading) task forces on the TF list?

The IND is in charge of Wasp and thus that seems to be the controlling factor in regard to the TF leader.

Changing the Wasp to a US leader, makes the TF leader list pop up with many choices.

The initial issue would have been why IND leader was made the captain of the Wasp!

"He who combines Semi-modern CV's (Wasp) with slow old Battle wagons ( pre War BB's) and slow CVE's ans Semi modern CA's deserves it exactly the way it goes."


No american Commander really wanted to reign this crappy combination of forces and thats why the IND took over sayin' "Hey, I'll do the job".

Status: offline 		Thanks MichaelM!!! I never put into a foreign port with Wasp, so I'm unclear how the situation arose.

My friend Oliver, the task force was for viewing pleasure as I was trying alot of stuff to figure out why I had an Indian Admiral.

Status: offline 		Another thread reminded me to ask: When making an amphibious landing, I may deploy capital ships with the landing forces, but in so doing, also commit their fire power to enemy land suppression, therefor, I like to keep a friendly surface force in the same hex to ward off enemy suface raiders and neutralize most air intruders.
Problem:Once a friendly suface force is engaged, the force commander allows his force to sail away, leaving that hex weakened. Might there be a way to keep that force in that hex?
Thank you michaelm for your consideration.

Status: offline 		One interesting thing brought to my attention on the Industry Management screen.
[ No change is being made. This is just for my information.]

1. The Engine column shows the total production as the total number of active devices. Which would equate to the likely number of engines for the 30-day month. As a result, the HI required total is for the same time period.
The actual production would more likely be 1/30 of that total, and thus 1/30 of the required HI.
2. The Air column doesn't show the required HI for production. Again both these figures are (or would be) for a 30-day period.

As it has been this way since the introduction of the screen, no one obviously has any issue with this.

But should it really show this (the required HI) as a 30-day total when all the other totals basically show as a turn requirement??
Or are players using the 30-day totals as a guide to ensuring that they keep plenty of HI to support the continual production of engines and aircraft.

[edit]
The other thing I just noticed is that even when production is turned off, the 'required' totals are still updated with them.

[1108r9]
Changed Added device type filters to the Industry/device pool [MEM]
Changed Highlighted 'HI required' numbers on Industry Screen for Air and Engines [MEM]

Just realized that there is a change I made for myself that has made it in to the last build.
Clicking on 'Carrier aircraft' in a CV TF will give a list of groups (instead of the first carrier group) in the TF similar to the hex list for land based planes. I got tired of click on CV TF groups and trying to remember what was what, especially with setting missions for the carrier groups. The usual next/previous in the group screen will just show the groups in the TF.
Sorry about this. Hope it doesn't upset too many people.
I don't want to do another rebuild as it affects my trying to get this final patch out.

excellent additions, thanks Michael.
Maybe add one small adjustment - show CV groups before CA, BB... float planes groups.
