@numetalfan yea I think you can do what you want. I Think there's a few maps that have a similar mechanic. Slightly different . Can't think of any off hand.

Maybe you could buy units for a certain price and place in a Capital and when the right amount of units are present they activate the trigger ?

@lafayette To firstly have to access the download list to be able to download from an URL. I think one should not be obliged to receive that list to be able to download from an URL, also since this means the feature will be likely visually marginalized.

@torpedoa Sadly, that doesn't fit my intention because of the interaction with IsDestroyer & the fact that there's no way to limit it to a single unit/round. It would actually be as-intended if I could dictate whether units retreat ("withdraw") to the same SZ/territory or retreat to a neighboring one.

@ubernaut Definitely.

@wirkey said in Display Standard Deviation in Battle Simulator:

4.11 ± 2.58

Std deviation can be tricky. 4.11 would be the average outcome, the plus min 2.5 means most other results were clusted within that distance from the average. It could be the case that most results were clustered much more closer with a few very extreme results, or the clustering was pretty tightly grouped (no way to tell based on std deviation alone).

Hence, IMO we probably really want percentiles if we are going to add more statistics.

@waxfingers said in Unit Option When Damaged Change Into Different Unit (Weakened Battleships):

Hi @rogercooper

OK I will check that out. I am not sure if it does exactly what I am proposing though. Would removing IPCs mean a single bombing run takes away so much IPCs for that turn only? Or does the damage and consequence persist if not repaired?

My idea is more of a continuous drain if not dealt with and repaired. Also, I wanted the major territories to be a little bit resistant to it (would need like 3+ planes or separate bombing runs to do enough damage to have an effect). That is why the math was territory value less bombing value is the amount of IPCs lost. So if territory is 5 and bombing was only 3 then nothing happens to IPCs.

It would not be persistent. If you want persistent damage, just make damage to factory capacity unrepairable.

@anton-hengst Unfortunately, unitSupportAttachment only gives combat bonus. You could use "givesMovement" but that his no limitation on the number of units assisted. "isLandTransport" only works 1:1 and is ignored by the AI.

@beelee Thx

You can do that well enough by simply ignoring the in-game results of the battle and using Edit Mode to set the units and such after the battle. It won't display in the history, but it will otherwise work fine.

@Cernel
I agree.

The improved Production Panel is available in my test build v3.5.1-bu:

@butterw As I already said in the past, instead of Ctrl+A and Ctrl+D, I suggest having Ctrl+X and Ctrl+Alt+X, where X is any natural number. The number defines that only the units having that mobility value or more are added as long as they can attack ("fire"), respectively, as offenders or as defenders (so, Ctrl+0 would act the same as Ctrl+A).

The main advantage is that, when adding offenders, you use Ctrl+1 for adjacent zones, Ctrl+2 for zones which are not adjacent but are adjacent to an adjacent zone, and so on.

When adding defenders, you will probably almost always use Ctrl+Alt+0.

Of course, the feature can be limited upwards to the number 9.

@raziridium again i dont want to cause a problem, but maybe we should vote if we "want" to change the logo before we vote to change it.

@butterw Cool, hard decision how to proceed. Removal of common hotkeys that allows for greater game play efficiency vs mitigating a rare but impactful mis-click due to chat. Maybe there is another option here..

@rogercooper I haven't used the feature firsthand as of yet. But I was under the impression that a place marker (typically 48x48+dmz) is still on map. If so ,then in a small territory that space is very valuable real estate.

But perhaps I'm mistaken.

There are multiple cases to consider but the relevant code to modify looks like this.

final String transcriptText; transcriptText = player.getName() + " collect " + toAdd + MyFormatter.pluralize(" PU", toAdd) + "; end with " + total + MyFormatter.pluralize(" PU", total); bridge.getHistoryWriter().startEvent(transcriptText); endTurnReport.append(transcriptText).append("<br />");

I think adding a variable final String transcriptTextMod; with a modified formatting would be possible.

@rogercooper The simplest way to do upkeep (with integer PUs) would be to have a fractionnal rule (ex: 1 for X Infantry units, rounded down) rather than multiplyPUs (x10).

Having a german fighter cost ex:105 instead of 100 is unlikely to have a huge impact on the game . Keeping regular PUs and a base cost of 10 and using a higher upkeep of 1:9 instead of 1:10 would achieve a similar result.
