dprathbun -> Truk to Brisbane? (10/7/2002 1:49:04 AM)

While playing scenario #1 against the AI, every now and again an air strike will be sent from Truk against Brisbane. The details escape me (rum induced?) but nothing comes of the strike. No combat report, &c, &c, &c.

Since this is an “Eastern Solomons Only” scenario, it strikes me as a bit odd. Not to mention the 75 hex one-way trip. What are these guys on?:confused:



BPRE -> Units in Brisbane (10/7/2002 5:08:16 AM)

dprathbun,

I guess you are talking about scenario 2. 1 is Coral Sea.
In the first versions of the game there were both ships and air units located in Brisbane even though the base doesn't exist. You could even form TFs and have the B-24s bomb Truk.
To see them you had to List all ships or List all landbased air units and check the location.

For some reason Brisbane ended up at position 0,0 and that is within range from Truk so Japanese bombers used to try to bomb Brisbane and caused a crash of the game.

I just checked secnario 2 in v 1.40 and I can't find the units anymore. Did you start your game in v 1.40 or an earlier version? I think there was one in between where only the ships or the air units could be found in Brisbane.

Regards
BPRE



BPRE -> Fixed 1.50? (10/7/2002 5:26:57 AM)

I just noticed this fix in the list of fixes for 1.50:

[QUOTE]15) A phantom mouse hotspot reporting a non-existent base in the upper left corner of the map has been eliminated.[/QUOTE]
Maybe that will sort out the problem since it seemed to have something to do with that corner earlier at least.

BPRE -> Units in Brisbane in sc 4 (10/7/2002 5:51:13 AM)

Did some more investigating and it was actually scenario 4 that had the units in Brisbane and they are still there in v 1.40.

Sorry,

The list is on the first page in a reply from Joel Billings.
