It seems impossible to add an event having loaded my existing campaign :
(I have the impression that you must first add the Events and then add the Scenario)

No manual , no simple example (tutorial campaign), full of bugs :evil:

Seriously, what's up with that? No possibility to close the window or to select my units that way. Had to quit the game and restart.

@terminator: Sorry, can't help you here, I haven't got a clue about the campaign editor.

I am not sure but this feature "New Units Available" was deleted for some time ?
US Engineers' 41 is NOT a "New Units Available", I can buy US Engineers' 42 !

I'm also not sure whatever happened with that cool feature. But it's not "deleted" per se from the game. Still can be seen with freshly installed mods from time to time.
My guess, it's more like the tutorial messages: once shown, won't show again (or something like that) :shock: :roll: :?

Whatever the fundamental reason behind this, within you campaign, the "new units" popup doesn't work at all as intended, even crashing the game, so to say.

I have made a second test with my scenario Tunis. Same f...... window "New Units Available" :evil:

But I found "accidentally" a solution :D

After the briefing, do NOT close the window "Turn Overview", Purchase directly the first unit :!:

:arrow: The f...... window "New Units Available" and ("Turn Overview") disappeared :D

What I learnt today : It would seem that it is necessary to make things in a very precise order with the Campaign Editor so that it works more or less correctly :idea:

PS : there is a serious problem with the windows in this game !

The campaign editor should have never seen the light so far. It’s still a construction yard since PK. Too bad you are forced to use it instead of alternately editing the campaign files themselves like it was possible in the past.
*dreaming of better times* :cry:
