Sicily Rules!
Hats off for a nice setup Wotan.
-
Thanks Ghost
I hope everyone enjoys it.
-
Can someone look into the airfield resupply settings? At least for the LW, I have no clue if it's the same for the Allies.
-
please clarify.......?
are you talking rebuild times?
-
Wotan,
I'm not entirely clear on what is going on. But last night, a few of us resupplied on particular LW base 3 times (well, 4 times, but one was with the wrong cargo) and that did nothing. Someone made a comment that it may take up to 6-8 resupply trips to get a base going again. With four of our bases out of commission, the last thing I want to do is play UPS man. I come online to fight. It takes one goon to capture and I can't see why so many goons to resupply, if this is the case. Just a couple goons flying around is really a large percentage of the populace of the CT at times.

wotan it might be the rebuild times as the southern sicily bases remained 'fuel down' for almost the entire time i was online.
This proved very frustrating as every time i had to fly from A14/15/16 to get to a fight at a8/a7/a10/a6 etc which was a real pain.
eventually it started to respawn the fuels but this was literally hours later.
i think we need to up the fuel resupply or respawn if thats possible? acks and hangers seemed fine but the fuel just stayed at 25%.
btw on setup, it was fun when i got to the fights but like i said flying so far every sortie was too much and it seemed many LW left.
numbers were 25 to 7 at one point! :(
cya up there

I ended up rebooting the arena. I am sorry about the rebuild times.
Heres what happened
Downtime was at 1.00 multiplier. Folks were trying to cap a depo and said the buildings were rebuilding really fast.
After adjusting the downtime some stuff that was killed prior to the adjustment would not rebuild. So I rebooted the arena.
-
FYI Wotan....coming from a someone who is familiar with the setup tools.
Anything the gets destroyed is affected by the downtime multiplier that was active when the object was destroyed. Adjusting the downtime after something is destroyed or even bumping the clock up doesnt make it rebuild quicker. Also, each objects rebuild time is dependent on its default rebuild time. For example, acks stay down 15 min default and hangars are down for 30 min default....if the mult is set at 2.0, the acks will stay down 30 min and the hangars will stay down 60 mins. As far as I know, there is currently no way to set everything to rebuild at the same times.....Hitech adjusted them server side for Invasion Sicily I believe to do some things with rebuild that just were not possible using the CM tools. If ya ever have any questions about setup and limitations, shoot me an email, I will be glad to help answer any questions you may have.

Thnx sling the ack rebuilds in like 30 sec or so with the downtime set at 1.
I have it set to 2 now but seems a bit longer for strat items like fuel, ammo etc.

I am enjoying this CT. Yes, more people tend to fly Allies, but with all those sexy Spits, who can blame them!! Had fun with the 190A5 though - nice fast, clean plane with monzo ammunition. Not too sure about those italian birds though...
-
Yeah, shame folks aren't willing to even the sides up a bit. I took the FW-A5 up last night and did well in it. I died a couple of times, but never to less than 2 Spitballs.
It's frustrating to make one Spit Dweeb overshoot and sit there for an easy kill, when you can't pull up and take the shot without the other three nailing you. :-)
Why you allied guys aren't all flying the P-47-D11 is beyond me anyway. :p
-
Been having a good time. Thanks wotan! :)
The CT has really added to my AH enjoyment!
-
Thanks fellas Thursday (tonight) will be the last night for this set up.
Enjoy it. Sabre has BoB coming this friday..........
Looking forward to the next one and offer a big S! to those of you that make the ct such good fun.
