Status: offline 		This is probably related to a previous read error, it is trying to compare the airpool lists, but is finding one smaller than the other.

Now some Q's:
How many turns have you loaded without errors ? Are you sure you are loading the correct savefile (same scenario) ? Are you using the latest version of Tracker ? I only ask cause I think Floyd fixed this earlier.

Solution: Delete the DB and try for a fresh load or Floyd might ask for some files.

I assume that turn 2 is the initial turn you initialized WitPTracker AE with, right?

Can you send me turn 2, turn 4 and your witptracker.properties file to witptracker@gmail.com?

Thanks.

Floyd, I checked the campaign, and SW Pac is a top level HQ there, so it's probably just a quirk with the Guad Scenario.  Now, if I were able to assign an Inf LCU to, say, I US Corps, which is subordinate to SW Pac, would the Inf LCU be displayed if filtering by HQ or not?  If not, then there is something to fix.  I suspect this is what you already addressed with the Air Group HQ filter. 

Great tool, getting better and better all the time. 



This will be fixed in the next release. I added all of the subordinate HQs, just like for the Air Groups HQ filter.

WitPTracker Map - 12/16/2009 11:24:21 PM

Status: offline 		I have been toying with a map panel for WitPTracker.

So far what I have is really not very useful (IMO). It scrolls, shows flag icons for control of bases, scales (100%, 75%, 50%, 25%) and will tell you what base you clicked on the map. It also lets you select a base using the menus and it will scroll it into view and "select" it. The downside is that this functionality requires about double the memory to build the map image, but it builds and scrolls quickly. The map comes from the official ART folder, so it's the same map as you use in-game.

Here is an example.

So, I'm looking for suggestions on what useful data I can display and useful functions to perform on the map. Obviously I can't do it all initially, but I'll do what I can for the next release.

SigInt and OpReports on the map. This is probably a great amount of work, I think I heard somewhere there was a tool for this alone in the original WITP.

I'll look into the search arcs.

I second this suggestion. Bodhi's Utility and it's ability to make intel reports actually useful is the only real functionality that is not yet available from any tool with AE.

Yeah, I'd think this is the main reason for a map, apart from quickly locating clickable tables location information...which I think will be a long way off, if ever and would probably take a bit of a GUI redesign.

[edit]Maybe there can be a filter for alert locations that turn too ?

If you're getting the error about APL comparison, then I'm guessing turn 1 didn't really read in okay. Can you send me turn 1 and turn 2 to witptracker@gmail.com (along with the witptracker.properties file) and I'll give it a try?

Thanks,

Floyd

I reinstalled Tracker and after some fidling I managed to find and load turns 1-2-3!
Looks fine now :-)

Status: offline 		While stuck inside as the snow piles up here, I finished off a first pass at search arc display.

You can choose to show naval search vs. ASW search (I tried showing both at the same time, but it was a mess). Then you can choose to show only defined search arcs (blue and green), random search (yellow) or both at the same time.

The sample shows the area around Pearl and southwest (zoomed out to 25%). The darker areas are where stuff overlaps.

Comments?

Any hope of getting a fix for this error? I doubt it, since I'm trying to run Tracker on Windows XP running within a VirtualBox OSE VM. WitPStaff works fine, though.

Edit: Looks like it's trying to force 32 bit colour? Is this really necessary?





Hurray!

Here's the fix:

Change the WitPTracker.bat file used to start Tracker as follows:

java -Xms128m -Xmx256m -Dsun.java2d.d3d=false -jar "WitPTracker.jar"
pause

Thanks for the solution Jones944, I had been thinking it was my fault with the 32bit colour chart ... glad you've found something workable though

If it wasn't your chart, the new map may have triggered it as well.

It does seem like a good fix, though (http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/guide/2d/flags.html)
