I think there is a display problem with search sectors. I indicated a problem with Hudson III (LR)'s earlier and now I'm looking at a display of PBY-5's from Canton Island. I've set the range to 21 hexes but the display goes all the way to 23 hexes.

I'll try a few other types of aircraft squadrons to see if this seems a consistent problem.

In this new beta, the loading procedure has somewhat changed;

1.) In 1106i you could form a TF, order to load whatever (be it troops or cargo), and leave it without setting a destination.

Doing it this way was my trick to ensure a whole LCU gets loaded without any bits and pieces left behind.

Now with the new beta, the TF, if not given a destination, automatically sets its home port as such, loads the stuff, and when complete in one turn, unloads the whole lot the next turn still in its home port.


I can still do it in my old way as described above, but I also have to set the TF to "Remain on Station" and "Do not Unload" to prevent it unloading at home port as soon as it has completed loading.

WAD?

Is that some sort of IQ test? [:D]

If find some, send me a save and location to look at.
Due to the map's hexagons, only the horizontal or vertical axis count the correct number of hexes.

1. Bug in that the button isn't showing. Fixed in new build.
2. The on-map routing upsets off-map movement. I see it showing when TF is in waiting box to enter map.
3. The unload/load toggle isn't always changing. Seems to depend on individual circumstances at time of showing TF. Added extra test in new build.
4. I'll see what I can do.

I don't know if alt font is officialy supported but it seems that the Mitsubishi engines are too long to appear correctly on the screen. Now their last digit is cut... showing only Mitsubishi Ha-3 instead of Mitsubishi Ha-33/34/44 etc. as it is they're not sorting correctly.

B5M1 Ha-33 then...
B6N2a is Mitsu Ha-32
D3A1 again Ha-33
although I sorted by engine type.

There is only so much space in these columns. The sort does work on the actual columns contents, but I have added hooks in some sorts to use the data content instead of the column text (eg some sort by rank use the the rank number rather than rank name to get the 'ranking' order).
I can try moving left and cutting back on the plane name.

Just commenced a new campaign as Allies vs AI (scenario 6 ) Two day turns.

My combat, operations and sigint reports are all blank. However if I look carefully at them I can just see the outlines of some text. Can't read it as it shows as white text on a white background.

I know that a similar problem has already been reported but this additional information might assist with resolution of the issue.

Also wanted to express my appreciation for the wonderful support michaelm has been providing. Thanks in particular Michael for sorting out the search arcs problem---one of the coolest features of the game.
