traemyn -> First Winter Rule question (6/17/2011 11:11:10 PM)

The manual states:

"The following rules impact the Axis player in the section of the map area delineated by
coordinates X>72 or X>54 AND Y<95 during Blizzard turns in any scenario that includes the
months of December 1941 through February 1942
"

The last part seems to imply that the first winter rules only apply to Dec through February, however this is not explicitly stated anywhere that I can find.

Can someone clear this up?

Thanks!

Yes, this is true, IIRC, that the first winter rules are only for those 3 months.

Thanks Joel.

Seeing that you can have blizzard in Oct and Nov with random weather, it seems like it would make more sense to tie the first winter rules to the weather type and not those months. I know if it hasn't been coded for this that's easier than it sounds, but any chance this will change?

Just replace:
If(month >= Dec && month <= Feb && year==1941)

With:
If(weather == blizzard && year == 1941)

Done! (kidding of course...)




Joel Billings -> RE: First Winter Rule question (6/18/2011 1:33:52 AM)

No plan to change this.

Both wrong mate.

if ((month == Dec && year == 1941) || (month <= Feb && year == 1942))

and

if ((weather == blizzard && (year == 1941 || (year == 1942 && month <= Feb))))

See? No simplification. [:'(]

EDIT: Oh btw, kidding as well.
