krb3 -> Sub Mine Laying (3/25/2017 3:17:03 PM)

Just a couple of questions regarding sub mine laying. For surface ships there is a toggle to "Lay Mines/Do Not Lay Mines", but for subs I do not see where there is that option. I've created TF for sub to lay mines, replentished at port and a message comes up stating the sub is already loaded with mines, but I do not see them on their weapons screen. How do subs lay mines if the option does not exist to "lay mines". Is the displacement determined by their detination hex and it's automatically done? Are sub mine laying bascially used as anti-submarine tactic or is it for ships as well. New to WITP and not sure exactly how this works.

You didn't post a screenshot, but make sure you have created a Sub Minelaying TF, and not a Sub Patrol TF. A proper Sub Minelaying TF does have a Lay Mines switch.

Not sure what you mean, since he options are there on my screen. I'd check 3 things:

1. Game version. If you just downloaded it, the download I was directed to when I first bought the game waa very old version and I had to update. All kinds of stuff people talked about were not in teh game when I was using 1.0.something instead of 1.7.11.24. There are higher versions out than the one I am running, but I think this is still the latest GA version. The other new ones are Betas afaik.

2. Verify the task force is Sub Minelaying

3. Look for the Lay mines / Do nto Lay mines toggle as shown in picture.

You have no available mines.

Check the pools that you do have them and that they are not being stockpiled.  Once you have available, non-stockpiled mines you will get a message telling you mines are being loaded when you select a sub and the TF screen which show the "lay/do not lay" toggle.

Thanks for the responses. I do have that version 1.7.11.24. So, I did something wrong and when I do have this issue again will take screen shots and post.

How big was the port ? In small ports and/or with low nav support mines cannot be replenished
