I followed your advice on Ramon's Trenches thread for a negative supportAttachment but it's not working. Has no effect.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

@beelee
Code, it looks OK, do you have another supportAttachmentABomb in the xml ?

[beelee]

@TheDog

No that's the only one. Some units are player specific and some are the same for both sides. Idk if that's messing it up. I guess I could remove them and try one unit at a time.

Edit
Hmm ... maybe because ABomb has no attack value or it's zero. I'll try and give it attack 1 and see what happens

Edit 2
That didn't work either

@wc_sumpton any ideas brother ?

I shoulda practiced on Moscow lol

@beelee
check your javaclass is
javaClass="UnitSupportAttachment"

@beelee

Is the " ABomb" attacking or defending? 'side' is which side the 'attachTo' unit is on. If 'attachTo' is attacking side=offense. Defending side=defense.

Cheers...

@wc_sumpton

heh heh I'll give it a go

I thought defense since the defenders should be affected by the attacker the ABomb But will try as I didn't think to

Edit
and wc comes through with the obvious solution lol

The 2 hitters are at 1 now. Just a testing stage but I hate being stupid lol

Thanks Brother

Ramon got me to thinking and I tried to alter how my Marines work. The way they're supposed to work is they are A1 D2 unit that gets boosted to A3 when a Artillery is present.

Artillery also boosts Infantry and a pile of other units +1 on the attack.

I had the Marine at A2 and get boosted +1 on the attack with all the other units in the same supportAttachment. But then you have to switch to a MarineA1 unit that only attacks at 1 when no Arty present.

So i made a separate supportAttachment for the jarhead and gave him +2 on the attack when paired with the Arty as he is now just a A1 otherwise.

I gave it the same "bonusType" name as the one that supports the Infantry. When I attack with 1 Inf and 1 Marine and 1 Arty, the Arty gives +2 to the Marine and +1 to the Inf.

We want it to just give +2 to the jarhead and no bonus to the Inf. Is that possible ? It seems I tried when initially doing it but couldn't get it to work, hence the two different types of Marines.

I thought the same bonusType name meant the Arty would only support 1 unit but then which unit was a bit of a problem too but you did say something about which order their listed in gets the support.

I have to dig that one up but anyway, I think I already tried this and there was no solution but ... I'll ask again anyways

Updated to 2.63

I'm considering adding Naval Task Force Boxes to the South Pacific and Atlantic in 66 and 67 SZs. 1 Kriegsmarine and 1 USN in 67 and 2 each for IJN and USN in 66.

One wouldn't have to use them obviously but I don't see a downside to it, so I most likely will. Saved Games won't be compatible, so there will be a little back and forth between Game Versions until the old ones are completed.

Anyway, probably won't be happening anytime too soon but one never knows. Have to remember how to do it first lol

I guess I'd need a couple OverFlow Boxes too. Well, there aren't that many Units involved, so should still be plenty of room

Edit
I see Undrgs don't have repair option. I think I know why. I'll try and get a fix out before anymore games start as it'll be an xml change.
