Various Scenario Event/Action/Trigger bugs - 8/4/2014 8:49:06 AM

As promised I went again through all scenrios I played so far (using V. 1.04 Build 554).
See below what I consider to be bugs.
(there might be bigger issues in the simulation but on the other hand this stuff should be quite easy to fix)

"Edit Event" Window

Bug: When clicking the "Cancel" button, changes to the event definition are *not* dismissed.
Reproduce behavior: Open any event definition, add a 2nd trigger to the triggers list. Click Cancel.
Reopen "Edit Event" Window and the 2nd trigger is still there.

(I guess I don't need to mention that many other dialog windows are missing Windows standard Save/Ok & Cancel buttons
:-)

Scenario "Maria & Victoria"

Bug: Event "Arg player loses 500 points for having San Luis sunk" does not have any trigger defined.

Possible improvement: End the scenario when the San Luis sub is sunk.

Scenario "Operation Trident"

Bug: In event "PNS Muhafiz Sunk", trigger "PNS Muhafiz Sunk" (=sink Pakistan "M 160 Adjutant") results in Action
"Pakistan MCM Sunk" which grants Pakistan +100 points. Action should be changed to Side *India* gains +100 points.

Scenario "Operation Market Time"

Bug: The type definition "PC1" of trigger "Armed Junk Sunk" is wrong. I sunk 6 enemy ships and didn't get any points.

Bug: Scenario ends at a specified point in time. Then you get 2000 points (Triumph!) for having done nothing.

Improvement: Completely revise scoring & evaluation system.
=> Grant proper points for sinking enemy ships.
=> Possibly deduct points for losing own assets.
=> Remove the "2000 point" gift at the end.
=> Present a proper scencario evaluation when time has run out based on the points gained/lost.

Scenario "The Shark"

Bug: The event "Indian Ship Sunk" should be defined as repeatable, otherwise it is not possible for Pakistan to gain
1000 points (and trigger the event "Pakistani Victory, Two Indian Ships Sunk, Scenario ends").

Scenario "Choking Halifax"

Possible bug: There are 2 triggers named "RCAN Navy ship is sunk" defined. One defines a target subtype, the other one
is more specific with a target class. Currently only the more specific trigger seems to be attached to event "Soviet
player gains 300 point for sinking RCAN warship". Maybe it was the intention to add both triggers to that event?
Renaming one of the triggers would be also good idea.
In the current setup sinking an enemy ship patrolling close to the sub doesn't yield any points which seems illogical.

Scenario "First Contact 1973"

Bug: Event "Kildin Class Sunk" doesn't have any action defined. As there aren't any Kildins in this scenario, delete
this event.

Bug: Event "Osa II Sunk" doesn't have any trigger defined.
=> Add trigger "Osa I/II Sunk" to this event.

Improvement: Make event "Kanin Class Sunk" repeatable and give only 250 (instead of 500) points in the related action
"Kanin Class Sunk". This way Norway gets points for each enemy ship sunk and needs to kill all of them to reach 1400
points (=Triumph).
