Getting tired of these awful dice

[Jeff28]

Not that crummy strategy isn’t playing a major role.

@Jeff28:

Getting tired of these awful dice

–Jeff

You have not been lucky this game
I look in my e-mail and see my infantry hitting, and even a defending sub hit…

[gamerman01]

Oh, OK, yeah now I’m looking at the game.  Got it working on this computer now…
You took a lot of big hits in Java and the sea zone around it, but otherwise everything went very smoothly…

[gamerman01]

How did you move a destroyer back from Z43 after attacking and sinking my sub?

Why did TripleA let you move it?

[gamerman01]

Well I hope that’s just an unusual glitch, like when a destroyer attacks a sub, because that’s disturbing.

I’m editing it back to Z43 from 36.

Do you want to change any noncoms as a result?

[Jeff28]

i just used the control button as usual to move air stacks, don’t know

doesnt matter your zillion lucky hits screwed up my non com plans anyway

[Jeff28]

I don’t have the time to recreate the board post combat so just change whatever it is.

If there is a triple A bug, maybe we should submit it to Veqryn for correction? How we do that?

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

i just used the control button as usual to move air stacks, don’t know

That’s what I thought.  Actually, you probably used “shift” and it grabbed the destroyer and you didn’t notice it - all understandable.

Yes, this is an alarming bug, and Veqryn should be contacted.  I think I’ll run a test on it first.

Like I said, yes, I just edited the destroyer back to the Borneo sea zone where it has to be.
Sounds like you’re saying to proceed, then, so I will

[gamerman01]

I reloaded R6 and re-did the attack on Z43.  Shockingly, when I shift-click the fighter, tac, and destroyer in Z43 it does indeed select them all and allow me to move them back to Z36, much like you did.

I will test it in another situation.

[gamerman01]

Tried Java sea zone, with destroyer having one MP left.  It properly didn’t let me move it in noncom (and yes the destroyer and sub conveniently missed  :-))

Perhaps it’s only when you attack subs only - will do a 3rd test.

[Jeff28]

You think super subs has somehting to do with it? Like it’s a different unit he didn’t code into some non com rule or something?

[gamerman01]

Yes, it did it again.
I attacked the German sub in 125 with a destroyer and 5 fighters.  The destroyer had spent 2 of 3 movement points.  After sinking the sub, I was able to move the destroyer a 3rd space in non-combat.

I’ll PM Veqryn

[gamerman01]

@Jeff28:

You think super subs has somehting to do with it? Like it’s a different unit he didn’t code into some non com rule or something?

Good thought, but no, I’m sure it has to do with programming the engine that you can ignore subs during movement.

[gamerman01]

I’ll be moving, I think, in about 20 minutes.

To be sure - you’re saying it’s fine for me to proceed and you don’t need to make any changes, right?

I’m not asking because I see some juicy target or opportunity as a result, I just want to make sure that you’re still OK with your non-coms and purchase placement, because there IS a change from the way you thought it was going to be (Destroyer in 43 instead of 36)

Thanks

[Jeff28]

its fine

[gamerman01]

OK, great - I’m about to pull the trigger on combat

[gamerman01]

@Veqryn:

ya that’s a bug alright

will be fixing

sounds like it only happens in a very very limited situation, so you won’t have to be on the lookout all the time at least
