1.01 RC4 - Depot building with "in production" supply

[Lilan]

I noticed that you can build depots from supply units just ordered and not yet "produced". Is it working as intended?

Balance wise : depots are easier to build this way since chariots do not require any structure other than a city.

Edit : the main difference with AACW being that
1) you chose where the supply chariots appear
2) they appear "immediatly"

not sure it will works as the units should be filled with hits, have you seen the depot really built before the units are operational?

[Lilan]

Yes, every time i use the trick.

[Lilan]

Yes indeed, it's a 100% working trick.

Good to know...

Help yourself. Names should be explicit

Thanks for your detailed report, bug fixed now. The elements that can be used must have 50% health at least.

Is it the same reasons why i can't build Fortifications ?

I'm playing the Whites (still RC2), gathered 4 arty units and 2 supply units in Kazan (100% Mil. Controled) but i can't build these new RUS field fortifications. ...

Since my arty and supply are in deep red in Kazan (and no way to change this because there is no replacements for South russian arty when playing the siberians)... i did the same in Simbirsk with full strenght units and it still don't works : 2 tchekish artillery units, 2 siberian artillery units, 2 south white supply units (with 8 elements).

I wonder if you should have only a stack with the same faction to build the fortifications... but if this is the case, it's a nightmare, because all the siberian supply units are in fact south white faction units...


Other question : are this new "forts" outside or inside the town ? Are we trapped in the town like in AACW/ROP or it is regional fortifications which allow us to retreat in an other region ?

you need 6 and 8 supplies and arty to build fortifications

you need 6 and 8 supplies and arty to build fortifications

6 supply units (24 elements) + 8 arty (8 elements) ??

This cost an eye, men...

PS: the Manual still says 2 supply + 4 arty... don't you want to stick to it ?
