Germany at War Barbarossa 1941 Slot Problem

[Ugga]

On some map you have more units to set up then slots to deploy on the map.

[Vasquez]

You can move your Units straightaway after you deloyed them what makes the deployment hex accessible again for further Units.

After some moves the old set up places are not reactivated, up to the end.
I have to deploy 23 units from 26 available units to cross the river Dnieper. I can deploy only 18 units.
Smolensk area, 13.July 1941
Some maps before it was 1 unit i cant deploy.

Hello,

After some moves the old set up places are not reactivated, up to the end.

deployment hexes are only active during the first turn. In that time you place units on those hexes and move them then place the next unit on the free deploy hex etc.
After this turn, those hexes disappear and only certain towns and airfields allow deployment. There are maps on which there are no such towns or airfields for the German side.

( deployment hexes are only active during the first turn. In that time you place units on those hexes and move them then place the next unit on the free deploy hex etc. ) That works
But the deploy point airfield did not work. And the deployment hex, after moving the first unit is not visible longer.

this is indeed strange as they should work like the hexes for ground deployment.

Can you provide a savegame that reproduces this ?

I can try to send savegames. How i can do this ? I can not find a savegamefile under all Matrix Games files.

[VPaulus]

You can find your savegames in a folder named "Germany at War" in your Documents folder.

I hope you can work with this.

Hello,

I hope you can work with this.

the savegame has turn 24 and ends after loading. So deploying units was out of the question and this could not be reproduced.

We would need one where you still can place units.

wrong . A new one.

And another question ( I know i am troublesome) : How i can deploy paratroopers in flight on a map without airfield.
I can deploy aircraft in flight but no paratrooper.

Hello,

AA-Smolensk 1941-0000.sav.xml.gz

got it. We could not reproduce your problem. At Smolensk the Germans have a permanent airfield that allows deployment in any turn.

We could place all air units at will - as long there were slots to place them. Maybe you ran out of slots when you wanted to deploy them ?

And another question ( I know i am troublesome) : How i can deploy paratroopers in flight on a map without airfield.
I can deploy aircraft in flight but no paratrooper.

Now this is not possible so far, but we consider it a flaw that has to be corrected. We will put it on the list of future features.

Thanks for reporting and regards,
