Pokie's new map

[Roscoroo]

hey Pokie on ur new map .

I came in when u were afk .. I have a simple request "Could u up the down time some in ur arena " pweeze or turn on the goonie bird on the cv .

I like the map layout .. are u gonna add some of those "bridges " u guys have been working on ?  and perhaps 2 more small AF's on the isle's next to the center one ?

Well keep up the great work .

[BenDover]

which map?

I have a simple request "Could u up the down time some in ur arena " pweeze

My apology Roscoroo

Man I goofed up there.
 
Completely forgot about the default downtime settings of the field items with Guns, Radar, Fuel etc with downtime of 2 hours.   that toooooooo long in the h2h form.

I had just started the game and then went to bed.

Anyway, that's where it gets interesting for the h2h.  
My guest would be to set it at .25 ( 1/4 downtime ) which would shorten the 2 hours down to 30 minutes.
Now that opens up new problems.

Field Targets like

Primary Ship go from 10 minutes to 2.5 minutes
Hangers       go from 15 minutes to 3.75 minutes
Towns          go from 45 minutes to 11.25 minutes
Fields supplied by Trains/Convoys/Barges would be repaired in 10 minutes.

Country Targets for the most part won't be too bad with them going from 3 hours to 45 minutes.

I'll post here in a bit what I think I'll set this up as.  Some times will be needed to be changed in the TE.

P.S Roscoroo, I didn't have problem with radar but then again it was set at 500ft.

hey Pokie,
  I noticed ur radar was set at  15   for each country (the 3 places) mine is at  511  and 1000 feet alt .  

I'll try setting mine the same way ,  befor this patch/verson   mine was  at 511  and   500 feet alt  and it worked fine .

[pokie]

Ya Roscoroo  Jimboy hosting H2H last night and the Radar wasn't working for the game.  It was set at 500ft.

May get around to see if I can see why.  If I find out anything I will post it here and make a new Post.

Jimboy had Hosted a H2H game Sunday night and had set the radar as:

RadarAlt = 500
RadarMode[0]=11
RadarMode[1]=11
RadarMode[2]=11
TowerBasedRadarRange=63360

This was working great.  
Enemies above 500ft were spotted as long as they were within 12 miles ( 63360ft / 5280ft which is a mile = 12 miles ) of any Tower.
Enemies below 500ft were not spotted.
All friendlies were spotted due to the Full Friendly box being checked.


Note!  If Full Enemy box is checked then the enemy dot will be seen all the time reguardless of what Altitude.

Now the funny thing is, just ran a H2H just to finish off some testing and the settings of
RadarAlt = 500
RadarMode[0]=11
RadarMode[1]=11
RadarMode[2]=11
TowerBasedRadarRange=63360

didn't work   aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh hhhhh.

ok thanks Pokie , i'll try that .i just have to find the full enemy box  .  i'll host today sometime and see if it will work .

im gonna try the "radar mode" in different places 11 ,, 15 ,, 27,, 511,, ect and see if that will make a diff even though i think that number has to do w/ how many radar sites are on and searching for each country  .correct????

[pokie]

When you open the
RadarMode[0], RadarMode[1] or RadarMode[2] in the arena settings, you can check mark the box of the settings you want to use.

Full Friendly                        =      1                      ( 0 )  if not used
Tower Friendly                   =      2                       ( 0 ) if not used
Full Enemy                         =      4                       ( 0 ) if not used
Tower Enemy                    =       8                       ( 0 )  if not used
Disable Friendly Counters =     16                       ( 0 ) if not used
Disable Enemy Counters   =     32                       ( 0 ) if not used
Plane Counters Only         =     64                       ( 0 ) if not used
Counters Above Radar      =    128                       ( 0 ) if not used
Range Based Counters     =    256                      ( 0 ) if not used

Total up all the points, and that's the number that gets entered.

In my settings of 11

RadarMode[0]=11
RadarMode[1]=11
RadarMode[2]=11

these what were set:

Full Friendly                          = 1 ( box was checked )
Tower Friendly                      = 2 ( box was checked )
Full Enemy                            = 0
Tower Enemy                        = 8 ( box was checked )
Disable Friendly Counters     = 0
Disable Enemy Counters      = 0
Plane Counters Only            = 0
Counters Above Radar         = 0
Range Based Counters        = 0
                                            ______
                                   Total = 11

P.S If you ever get the

You must have CM PRIVS to use this command.

message even though you are the H2H host, then just type in the message box .country # ( # = 1, 2 or 3, you can use the number of the country that you already are so you don't change to different country ). Now try changing the settings in the arena settings.
