mjk428 -> Sending TFs Off-Map (8/4/2009 6:16:21 AM)
|
Hello,
When I send ships to Cape Town from Columbo it shows a distance exactly double what the hex distance should be when both the destination and home ports are set to Cape Town. Ships sent from off-map to on-map show the correct distances. The same has held true for any other off-map port I checked.
If instead, I set the destination to an empty on-map hex and keep the home port as Cape Town, the distance shows correct for the complete trip. It also works fine if I send them to Diego Garcia as the destination with Cape Town the home port. The distance reported is then 109.
At first I thought it was a glitch that would work itself out once the TFs were underway but I checked some TF a few days later and the distance was still twice what it should be. I didn't know if things would sync properly once the TF went off-map but I don't want to chance it should it actually take twice as long to make the trip.
So this happens every time I set a TF to home port "Cape Town" and then click the "Return to Cape Town" button. The actual distance is multiplied by two. Then when I set the destination to anywhere else along the route, the distance changes and is correct.
Thank you.
