Timetable question


Fhechene

Recommended Posts

Hi!
This is a follow up question to this and this.

The setting is Berlin. I added some squadrons with the master file.
Some PLM's (the Soviet-Polish) squadrons start in English Airfield. Some RNZAF, RAF and USAAF squadrons start in Myedricz Airfield.
As a workaround I tried adding and moving said squadrons with timetable.dcg. The issue is that if I use a date before the start of the campaign, nothing happens. If I use a date after the campaign starts, it works perfectly. What can I do?

 

 

Edit: why do I always miss this? I'm using beta 3.50#2
Edit2: previous 3.50 didn't have the PLM's issue, but 3.49 did, I remember.

I'm surprised that this problem is still happening.  I'll take another look at it when I can.

Transfers only occur on the date so if your Berlin campaign carries over from another campaign (so doesn't have a set start date), it's pretty much impossible to use the time table to transfer them.  However, if you are starting the campaign on a set date, just transfer everything on that date.

It's super weird because you did fix the issue with the PLM's. I tested it and everything. It's like it defixed(?).

 

While we are on the topic of timetables, what does and doesn't work setting it before the start of a campaign? Setting escort? Paintschemes? Creating and removing convoys? What else?

I'd have to look at the code to remind me what works on the day and what works after the day....

Meanwhile, I have an idea of how to fix your issue and that's by using the airfieldrestrictions.dcg file.  Just restrict USAAF/RAF planes in your campaign from Myedricz Airfield and PLM one's from the English_Airfield.

Worked perfectly. I also had to restrict USAAF/RAF planes from Swiebodzin_Airfield, which is the other Airfield under Allied control at the start of the campaign. At campaign creation, they start at Unknown, but from the second mission onwards they go to English_Airfield. So, solved, I guess. I suppose I'll have to go checking when I capture an airfield if they transfer to that airfield, and then adding it to the airfield restrictions, but that's nothing.

By the way, what does work before the start of a campaign? Because it's nuts watching a Bf-109 trying to catchup with an Arado jet.
