Another update (I should have done them both at once )

In the air formation page a new patrol type being EW which is similar to AEW but the radar and thus EW emission is on for 2 1/2 mins every 3.

A new patrol type: by giving the group a multi leg course with no orders other than in the last leg (such as Land), then setting the patrol size to zero when the patrol type button (ASW, CAP etc) is pressed the radar and speed/alt setting get populated into each leg of the course. This is most useful in setting up an ASW barrier.

An update to correct a crash when in 'Attack' page and select a unit that belonged to a group no longer existing.

Also added more unit info in surface/sub page: hydro noise levels, torpedo target types, are mounts damged, max depth of subs.

Updated: the main revision is to let you better gauge how much fuel can be added to units in a tanker group (in the Air Refuel page). Handy for unit fuel topup before deploying separate from the group on patrol or strike missions.

An occasional infinite loop issue in the Air Refuel page is fixed

A popup menu introduced in the Group window of the AirGroupFormation page for setting Grp1 and Grp2 readying for group rendezvous  and join.

I've upload a toolbox revision that includes new function by which toolbox monitors the currently selected group and unit in the GE and applies the selection to some of the toolbox windows. By this you can now make selection of player groups and enemy units in toolbox by selecting them in the game, thus making it easier and quicker to perform many of the toolbox tasks.

This has required in some places significant changes to how procedures run so please let me know if you come across any misbehavior.

Uploaded a new version, 2.10.4

Removed a debug notice that would sometime popup and make no sense to player.

Groups Page, added information regards NOE, IFR, and MAD capability for AC units in the unit details window.

Attack Page, fixed a code error that left the toolbox enemy unit selection only working for enemy units selected in the game unit window, not for manual selection in toolbox window.

The Group page (surface/sub group in older toolbox version) now with the selection of the toolbox entry by selection of the player group in GE group window gives a very quick reference to aircraft and ship/sub capability, some of which such as AC's MAD, IFR and NOE capability isn't available in the game.

Uploaded NEW ver 2.10.6
Added code trap for case where attempting to cover an invalid enemy unit would cause game crash.
Changed AirGrpFrm page unit list to show aircraft range in nm (at current speed) instead of endurance in mins.
reset Attack page Egroup (and EUnit) when time compression is altered, signifying that player is manually 'doing stuff'
Updated help text.
IN group page added information for missile units: alt band, numbers, target and guidance phase.

Generally smoothed out the auto selection of player groups and non-player units from current selections in the game window.

In the scenario section added a three scenario pack of walk through simple play scenarios illustrating some of the features.
