Total World War: December 1941 3.0.0.6

Ondis

Of course they were more effective, but that is on the attack, not on the defense, so two different subject matters entirely. You've not limited their attack capacity in conjunction with other ships but their defense.

On the issue itself I'd suggest keeping the removed AA defense that they had before vs Destroyers but letting them defend at least at 1 and 2 respectively, regardless of situation, or 1-3 if you prefer that. Maybe even 2-3.

Still like the direction as I said, but without fog of war of some sorts ambushes are just too unlikely and they will find themselves hunted into oblivion in the high seas as it is now, not being able to be rescued by the main surface fleet in any effective manner due to their inability to contribute significantly to any fight.

Did I miss something and there is this new feature that the EA don't get to produce anything? Doesn't seem right..tww ladder wirkey vs chewbaluba.tsvg

EV 1.9.0.0.11612
MV 3.0

redrum

@wirkey Not sure quite what you mean, could you describe the issue a bit more? Also you should probably upgrade TripleA to the latest stable version 1.9.0.0.13066.

wirkey

@redrum EA doesn't have any production phase

chewbaluba

@wirkey @redrum I opted out of buying anything round 1 of EA but was not given the option of buying for EA in subsequent rounds. By design? It looks like game is subtracting PU for nat'l objectives, is that right?

chewbaluba

@wirkey @redrum Reproduced on 13066 in Round 1. EA skips Purchase Units in Round 1.

wirkey

@chewbaluba @redrum @Hepps yeah, EA don't have any money in rnd1, but still can't produce in later rounds with PUs

Ondis

Im not sure about the issue overall but the subtraction is probably due to the occupation/protectorate status of certain provinces, no?

They should still be getting a few PUs, but just a few. For a couple of provinces in Africa and the one in the UK.

redrum

@wirkey Ah I see. There is a bug in 3.0 causing the Exiled Allies PUs to be set to 0 at the start of the UK turn. And then since they have no money, it skips their turn. If you edit back in their PUs after the start of the UK turn then it should work fine. I'll look to put a fix in for 3.0.0.1.

redrum

@wirkey @chewbaluba This is fixed and will be in the next TWW release.

@redrum When will the next release be available? I jist started a game and now I have to wait, until release is ready - right? Or can I do a manual repair by myself?

redrum

@LovePlayingAAA Probably this week. You can use edit mode to get around some of the issues but there isn't anyway to fix existing save games when the new release comes out.

Here is what will be included in the next release so far:

v3.0.0.1 (in-progress)

Fix some missed HeavyDestroyers by removing isDestroyer
Fix StrategicBombers and HeavyStrategicBombers by removing defensive AA (not used and simplifies tooltips)
Add trigger for converting any vichy and exiled allied units to major in sz42, sz48, sz61, sz62, sz64
Fix technology tab
Fix unit icons
Fix Vichy and Exiled Allies Occupations and Protectorates income deductions that were firing twice

Thanks for the feedback!

redrum

3.0.0.1 is now live. Please update and provide any feedback here.

Hepps

@redrum Thank you sir.

wirkey

@Hepps is it intended that the Vichy ships, that were being saved from scuttling can't move?

redrum

@wirkey They can't move that turn but should be able to move the following turn similar to how inf gained by conquering certain territories work.

redrum

Appears there is a bug with North African territories turning back to Vichy owned after the Protectorate falling. Here is a save game showing that it being captured by UK2 and then turning back to Vichy owned in Italy2: test.tsvg

And here's a save right before it happens that you can see it turn back to Vichy after Italy's tech phase: test2.tsvg

redrum

The bug is fixed now and will be part of v3.0.0.2 release.

LovePlayingAAA

I am just playing 3.0.0.1, just at the beginnng of turn 2. When will axis or allies have the opportunity to get or scuttle the vichy ships? In turn 1 nothing happens regarding these ships.
