Even for Wasttime Games that is not so good.

So--- Time to get to work playing what we have.
I would not mind that if the editor worked but of course it does not.

Even if Wastelands wanted to stop updating the game with 1.04 (and that hotfix) then it would be the best WWII game available. Hopefully they won't stop, and will give us some changes in convoy routing, etc, but anyone who plays this game as is has gotten their money's worth bigtime.

Fix for air units stuck due to supply bug.

In the consts.ini file (found in each scenario folder) change the following using a text editor:
from>>>
[AirUnitsRebase]
SupplyToRebaseUnitType20 = 15
SupplyToRebaseUnitType21 = 15
SupplyToRebaseUnitType22 = 15

to >>>
[AirUnitsRebase]
SupplyToRebaseUnitType20 = 0
SupplyToRebaseUnitType21 = 0
SupplyToRebaseUnitType22 = 0

Wastelands is a pretty small shop (I infer but have no direct knowledge) my guess is well under 10 FTE (full time equivalent) serving what is (unfortunately for us enthusiasts...) a VERY small niche market. Within those constraints I have found Wastelands to be pretty responsive to the customer base on the forums.

Status: offline 		Reading Doomtrader's previous posts on the 1.04 beta update tells the story, it seems to me that the attempt to introduce player suggestions into 1.02 and 1.03 caused many problems and the objective now is to get a stable official version 1.04 and stop the flow of problem betas.

The supply issues have consumed a lot of time and firefighting the problem betas took more time, I guess the concentration is now on getting back to a solid version of the game, which we last saw in 1.01.

Most probably we will focus on next games on this engine (SWiE, Fall Weiss, "Project Stalin"), but we are not going to abandon the game.

Worlds of Magic is completly different technology settings, etc.

Really Facebook is a place worth to check.

doomtrader,
If you expect me to spend my money on any other Wastelands products then you'd better forget those future games and work to make Time of Fury work properly. I could care less about the AI, just make sure all the game functions work properly without us having to hotfix anything. Ironic that SWiE works better than ToF yet has been out only half as long.
