OK, I am confused. I hit the Create All button and it made roads but then when I hit redo Objects I get errors about my strat roads have nothing to resupply.

I think it is... roads and supplies have to be assinged to thier respected bases and factorys. Look on the roads menu and select thier base to supply.

Clifra...

What objects are the errors happening on? Bases or Factories?

It could be the factories are set to the wrong zone or they aren't set as group masters.

When you use create all, they are automatically assigned by the TE. You don't need to specify the base or factory.

Ok, when editing the object I set them to say, AAAFac, Should it be Group Master? My HQ is a group master. All strat is in the proper zone.

Not at home now I'll post a screen shot tonight.

EVERYTHING should be group master except CVs and map rooms for the CVs.

Before you ask....Yes, everything. Airfields, Towns, Vehicle Bases, Factories, Cities, HQs.

You need to place a map room for each CV in some out of the way place. Usually far away from the fighting.

Oh, and when you think you're done with the map. Trust me... you're not.

well, I think I'm done.

Going to fly around in it offline and blow stuff up. I'll probably put up an H2H room with it soon.

That's the one thing you DON'T want to do. Unless you are completely finished, do NOT host the terrain. I guarantee you, even if its a private arena, someone will get in, find its a neat terrain, and starts hosting it himself. Seriously, the last thing you want is an un-finished terrain flying around in a freeloader community.

If it is hosted in H2H and someone downloads it, it kind of does not matter. If it is something you want to be public, go right on ahead. Once skuzzy builds the final map, that version will replace the one people downloaded from you in H2H. I tell people not to host my maps if I am testing them in H2H because they are usually unfinished and are buggy. I don't want people playing on an unfinished terrain, es[ecially if it is mine because I try to pride myself on quality terrains.

thanks, Denholm & Raptor, I will consider it.

Not gonna have much time until after the holiday so it may have to wait.

No problem, just warning you of the people I know (and am a part of), freeloaders.
