EUREKA! You are a genius Damien, and a very helpful one to. Now I have to learn how to crop it. My icons & prompts are not the same as in your video. Thank you so much!
It's not just learning to crop, but also how to resize the canvas as I did in the video - that's why you're leaving a load of white space (canvas area). I realise you're on an older version of windows, but you should be able to do similar in your version of paint.

Now, back to the original questions:
1. Should I try to move some of these lesser damaged ships to other nearby ports in order to speed up the repair process?
2. Should I raise the Priority Catagory above Normal for any ship which will put the Priority Adjusted Tonnage [PAT] in the red?
3. Raising the BB NC to High, e.g., shortens the time from 97 days to 59 days but increases the PAT to 86,834, Red. Paradoxically, changing the Priority to Critical yields 97 days, the same as Normal, & is not an option.
4. Raising the Priority Level of the CA SF, the other ship in Shipyard category, would shorten the time from 5 to 3 days freeing up Shipyard 2 days earlier for another ship, probably CA Australia, but raises the PAT to 58,834 tons - Red. Raising it to Critical doesn't shorten the time - also 3 days, not an option.
5. Removing the CA SF from Shipyard [as an example] & replacing it with CA Australia yields the following for the Australia: Normal 21 days tonnage <50,000tons; High 13 days, PAT 58,674 tons; Critical 9 days, 68,544 tons. I plan to put the Australia in Shipyard once the SF is done.
What I have done next is to see of I can put any of the above ships in a TF if I [we] decide the answer to #1 above is "Yes" so that I can move them. I have, therefore, tried to put them in a Readiness" state & will show the 2 screenpics below. Bottom line is that the only one I could get into a TF was DD Dunlap. I tried many different Mission Catagories.
quote:
Basically, The "Low Refitting" Ships which I couldn't get to classify as "Readiness" are
1. DD Dunlap - which shows no damage, but will take 6 days yet I can get it into a TF.
2. DD Corngham - which shows no damage, but will take 12 days to refit
3. DD Cummings - which shows no damage, but will take 6 days to refit
4. AO Kaskaskia - which shows only sys damage of 1 but will take 6 days to refit
Refitting (upgrade),gives a min.time for that to occur, not just sys damage. Corningham is in shipyard.
quote:
Those I could classify as "Readiness" yet couldn't get into a TF are:
1. CA Canberra - which shows only Sys damage of 1, 2 days
2. xAK Steel Maker - serious damage, 85#days
3. AP Harris - serious damage, 18# days
4. AP Pres. Bowen - serious damage, 82# days
5. AP Monrovia - serious damage, 33# days
6. AP Little - serious damage, 1# day
well you've got to place them in readiness mode. Pierside means they are tied up with engines off ... Change to readiness and in a few days they'll be available to place in TF.
quote:
To sum up, I plan to leave the BB NC & CA SF in Shipyard, & move CA Australia to Shipyard in 3-5 days when SF is done. I plan to leave all 6 seriously damaged ships at Sydney. I have already moved DD Dunlap into a TF. Now that I have broken things down this way, it may be that the remaining 4 ship only need refitting & can stay at Sydney. So, would it be helpful to try & move a couple of the seriously damaged ships [#2-5 above] to a nearby port & if so how to get them into a TF?
Actually, I wouldn't be moving any of the badly damaged ships as they are likely to sink...more when I make that video today ...
