Here are the last few items to check before getting out the next patch. Features: 1) The targeting routines have been rewritten. Fires onboard no longer increase the chances of a ship being selected as a target in the day time, as much. This should reduce the over targeting issue. 2) Motor Torpedo Boats (PT Boats) are now much more likely to attack and be attacked by screening ships, than the ships being screened. This should take care of the PT boats killing off your BBs and CVs all the time. 3) Anti-submarine warfare (ASW) routines have been rewritten. Allied ASW vessels should not be quite as effective before the middle of 1943 and American submarines should be a bit more resistant to Japanese ASW attacks after the middle of 1943. What can I say you talked me into it.[;)]

Twotribes -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 5:17:26 AM)
Sure wish I could have seen the super PT boats and the super ASW before it gets redone. I am up to April 1942 and can say I have seen no such creature. I have lost more ships on ASW patrols then I have sunk subs with them.

steveh11Matrix -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 4:37:14 PM)
Goldarn it, I'm going to have to wait until this comes out before starting a new game...and the question is, will I want to continue my current one, knowing that this is coming? Oh, the dilemma! [sm=00000436.gif]

Nikademus -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 4:49:44 PM)
Since these are changes in the executable and not the OOB, it would be possible for you to continue a current game with the upcoming patch. [:)]

If so, not only am I amazed that I remember details about an episode of the Flintsones, but equally awed that someone else remembers it too. [:D]

dday -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 7:06:20 PM)
I think Ron spent more time watching cartoons than playing WITP, so there!

dday -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 7:29:36 PM)
Hate to ask, what's the timeline for 1.3? [:)]

Nikademus -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 7:33:07 PM)
Dont have a definate timeframe i'm afraid. We are still testing some of the bug fixes and the new features. There will probably be a couple more tweaks (i.e. release versions) before it's certified for an official patch. We are moving along at a good clip though.

dday -> RE: Almost there (9/21/2004 7:38:57 PM)
ok, thanks and keeping us posted. Ron, keeping watching those cartoons (watch out for Betty) hehehehe. [:D]
