quote: ORIGINAL: asdicus quote: ORIGINAL: michaelm quote: ORIGINAL: asdicus I have a query rather than a bug regarding the ease of moving large amounts of supply between distant bases via very poor terrain. In the opening release of ae it was near impossible to move supply by land from india to burma and from burma to china. This seemed very realistic as in reality the terrain between burma/india is thick jungle with just a few muddy tracks. Supplies and goods were shipped by sea to rangoon. The more recent patches have allowed supplies to flow automatically from india to burma and then from burma to china - in very large amounts eg tens of thousands of supply points. This means I never have to ship supply by sea into burma very unrealistic and in china I can supply all my troops and bases quite easily. You can see this in my current pbm game. Chunking has recently gained around 50k supplies drawn from rangoon. save pbm attached. Is the supply draw system working as planned and if so is it allowing supply to flow too easily over impassible terrain ? Also are too many supply points being allowed to move in this way ? This is the resource/supply movement between bases for that turn. I don't see that movement. 1 Chungking receives 13 supply from Neikiang (99), store = 70736 req = 5623 1 Mandalay receives 24 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 1052 req = 351 1 Meiktila receives 11 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 737 req = 246 1 Prome receives 100 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 257 req = 53 1 Taung Gyi receives 18 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 770 req = 257 1 Toungoo receives 13 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 800 req = 267 1 Pegu receives 4010 supply from Rangoon (100), store = 20598 req = 3182 2 Magwe receives 500 oil from Rangoon (91), store = 10000 req = 1000 3 Rangoon receives 3000 oil from Magwe (91), store = 7000 req = 1000 The path for resource movement from Rangoon to Chungking can be traced through the rail/road network mainly. It's length is not affected by any of the beta patches. The only patch change was to extend the supply length for resource movement once every 7 days to go one or two hex to cater for a path tracing hitch. michaelm thank-you for looking at this. I have gone back over my save games for the last month and I think I have a better example of the growth of supply stocks in china. The first save is for the 16 May 1942. The second is for the 17 May 1942 Supply stocks changes - Bombay 201k to 175k, Calcutta 134k to 164k, Rangoon 76k to 72k, Chungking 46k to 70k, Changsha 36k to 37k. 16 may save attached My concern is the increase at Chungking from 46k to 70k. This supply is not coming from within china so it must be coming from burma or india. 24k increase in supply at Chungking in 1 day. Over time this soon adds up.

With disruption gained while troops are at sea, a invasion TF probably should NOT start from an offmap base, but be delivered to an on-map base to recover from the long journey.

[1108m3] Tweaked Show the supply path as black dots in a PBEM rather than actual suppply numbers [MEM] Added Mine count on TF list [MEM] Tweaked TOE upgrade in order for it to retain any the same weapons even if they have moved slot [MEM] Changed the 'turret hit' to show what weapon mount it is [MEM] Fixed Moonlight and Turn were mixed together on top line of some screens [MEM] Fixed Mines were not being removed from sub properly if TF wasn't docked. Allowed for base in hex if not docked [MEM] Tweaked Increased required oil/resource by a fraction of the load capacity of any TFs in hex wanting a load [MEM] Tweaked Stockpiling resource/oil creates a small 'need' for such [MEM] Changed Removed Ledo from Burma Road consideration [MEM] Added 'Get xx pilots' will appear to allow over-fill once group has pilot operational level [MEM] Tweaked Suppress some 'get pilot' buttons if not applicable [MEM] Changed Stop ability to overfill fragments [MEM] Added Show group or pilot stats on the group list screen [MEM] Changed Made current TOE upgrade delay show as -1 on LCU list so it can sort this cases [MEM] Tweaked LCU rebuilt in order for it to retain any weapons could upgrade to TOE weapon [MEM]

I have to select the same operation mode to get units to recombine. Take a look at Pegu with the 4/14th, 4/8th and 9/11th Bns, and Canberra with the 14th, 5th and 8th Bde. The 14th is in move mode and the Rebuild Unit button is grayed out. Select Combat mode and then you can rebuild the unit. Thanks Daryl

Combining units now need to be in the same mode, unpack time and travel distance. Units with diferring values could cause funny situations when trying to 'average out' these, so it is best for them to be the same.

Everytime I open the beta it will NOT open in full screen. I still see the min/full/exit symbols at the top and half of the bottom is cut off (goes outside of my screen) and can't see the base info at the bottom... If I need to post a screenshot I will...just let me know how. Thanks. Beta shortcut contain only -w switch (windowed mode). You can delete -w switch from beta shortcut for full screen mode, or copy switches from normal WitP AE shortcut and beta game will be start with your previous setting. More information about switches contain WhatsNew.pdf in WitP AE folder. That went right over my head and out my office door....

In the example above Pakhoi may be sending supply to Chungking but where is Pakhoi getting the supply from ? I still think that china is drawing large amounts of supply from somewhere outside of china - india and/or burma. However if you think that things are ok or working as designed then that is fine for me. I just play and enjoy the game as it is. If you do want me to post any more save games let me know.

It's good that the wrong part of the Burma Road is now out of the game but I would also like to have the possibility to make the Ledo Road. Any idea how that could be achieved? Maybe a check in 1945 what bases are held by the Allies and if sufficient(Ledo, Myitkina, Lashio & Paoshan) again some XXX supplies would flow into China. Also I check if they are held long enough would be fine so that the road doesn't instantly pop out if the bases are conquered in 45 by the Allies.

In the example above Pakhoi may be sending supply to Chungking but where is Pakhoi getting the supply from ? I still think that china is drawing large amounts of supply from somewhere outside of china - india and/or burma. However if you think that things are ok or working as designed then that is fine for me. I just play and enjoy the game as it is. If you do want me to post any more save games let me know. I had originally in one of the betas put a cap on how much resource/supply moved between bases, thinking that this was reasonable as the supply network must have some sort of limits. However, that then raised complaints about ports not having enough to load. If you have a save a few turns before, I can try to determin who is supply Pakhoi.

I found something strange yesterday (1108m3). All parts of the 1st Burma Division prepared for Pegu but stayed in Rangoon, besides one part being in Moulmein. Moved the last part to Rangoon, unpacked and rebuild and the 1st Burma Division was prepared for Rangoon (~50), not for Pegu. I didn't keep the saves as its just a fun game against AI and not take serious, but maybe someone else noticed something like that, too. :)

viberpol -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/10/2011 10:55:44 AM)
At the base screen there are some switches that make starting/stopping of industry repairs possible. I wonder if there is a way to make similar switches that stop/start repairs of the damaged airfield/port? Repairs of bases cost supplies, right? If there is an isolated base, pounded every turn by the enemy bombers, wouldn't the commander rather prohibit repairing the facilities and save the supplies for troops?

quote: ORIGINAL: michaelm quote: ORIGINAL: asdicus quote: ORIGINAL: michaelm quote: ORIGINAL: asdicus quote: ORIGINAL: michaelm quote: ORIGINAL: asdicus I have a query rather than a bug regarding the ease of moving large amounts of supply between distant bases via very poor terrain. In the opening release of ae it was near impossible to move supply by land from india to burma and from burma to china. This seemed very realistic as in reality the terrain between burma/india is thick jungle with just a few muddy tracks. Supplies and goods were shipped by sea to rangoon. The more recent patches have allowed supplies to flow automatically from india to burma and then from burma to china - in very large amounts eg tens of thousands of supply points. This means I never have to ship supply by sea into burma very unrealistic and in china I can supply all my troops and bases quite easily. You can see this in my current pbm game. Chunking has recently gained around 50k supplies drawn from rangoon. save pbm attached. Is the supply draw system working as planned and if so is it allowing supply to flow too easily over impassible terrain ? Also are too many supply points being allowed to move in this way ? This is the resource/supply movement between bases for that turn. I don't see that movement. 1 Chungking receives 13 supply from Neikiang (99), store = 70736 req = 5623 1 Mandalay receives 24 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 1052 req = 351 1 Meiktila receives 11 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 737 req = 246 1 Prome receives 100 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 257 req = 53 1 Taung Gyi receives 18 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 770 req = 257 1 Toungoo receives 13 supply from Rangoon (99), store = 800 req = 267 1 Pegu receives 4010 supply from Rangoon (100), store = 20598 req = 3182 2 Magwe receives 500 oil from Rangoon (91), store = 10000 req = 1000 3 Rangoon receives 3000 oil from Magwe (91), store = 7000 req = 1000 The path for resource movement from Rangoon to Chungking can be traced through the rail/road network mainly. It's length is not affected by any of the beta patches. The only patch change was to extend the supply length for resource movement once every 7 days to go one or two hex to cater for a path tracing hitch. michaelm thank-you for looking at this. I have gone back over my save games for the last month and I think I have a better example of the growth of supply stocks in china. The first save is for the 16 May 1942.

BigDuke66 -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/10/2011 7:12:42 PM)
Is that really for repairing AF & port? I thought its for industry that's also what the tooltip shows, besides that at the base itself I can't see an option to stop repairs for AF & port only for industry. I would like to have the option to stop AF & port repairs because they suck up the engineering capability and fortification doesn't go ahead, I see that quite good at Clark Field that base is pounded again & again by planes and despited having a bunch of engineers it just doesn't get going with the construction of fortifications because they are repairing again and again.

witpqs -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/10/2011 10:00:00 PM)
Repairs of Port/Airfield Service/Airfield Runway require no supplies but do have to be done before base construction (Port/Airfield/Fortifications) can proceed. In WITP I believe those repairs did require supplies (hence the confusion) but they do not in AE. Repair of the other stuff - factories, etc. is separate and AFAIK takes 1,000 supply to repair 1 point and only 1 point can be repaired per day. You can control repairs of this "other stuff" on the screen for each individual item (click on the icon at the bottom of the screen when the base is selected), or in the screen brought up by the "j" key.

I guess it should use supplies but then you also should have the option to "repair" or "do not repair".

BigDuke66 -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/11/2011 8:27:56 AM)
I would like to have it no matter if it uses supply or not. When I just hold out on a base there is really no need to repair facilities that aren't and won't be used by me anymore

beppi -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/11/2011 10:20:17 AM)
Michaelm some quick feedback from the newest beta patch: 1.) There is a problem with the replacements in combination with splitting a division/rebuilding it. The current delay is deleted/removed when a unit is split/rebuilt. Leads to a possibility to draw more replacement than allowed. 2.) Would it be possible to change the color of the dots for the supply path to lets say yellow ? Black is a little hard to see especially with jungle/mountain hexes.

BigDuke66 -> RE: Two problems with 1108m2 (5/12/2011 6:52:50 AM)
I wonder if the movement of resources, oil & fuel should be limited like it is for supply for some bases. Because if the change made to the resource movement a short while ago Pakhoi(my only port left) drew 36920 in a single turn what is almost as much as whole China produces in one turn, pretty overkill I would say. And even before that I can see some weird fuel movements, Pakhoi has just a level 3 port so 3000 points of fuel are requested, I don't think WITP tries to double that like it does for supplies but despite that I had days where fuel ran over 10k points and that at a base with no heavy industry. I alos wonder if it wouldn't be better to let the player also set values for resources, oil & fuel like he can do it already for supply, so if he wants something there he simply raises the requested value and waits for the base to draw it.
