I don;t know if this is new, or I just never came across it before. When I attempt to launch an aircraft from a base to attack a sub target, I get a message saying "Sir, we currently have no released weapons to conduct an ASW attack". If I launch the aircraft to patrol and then order it to attack the target as soon as it launches, the attack proceeds as usual.

 

I have a screenshot, but I can't figure out how to attach it.

 

Thanx,

Hi Buddha,

 

I don't much care for a screenshot but a saved game just before you attempt to launch the aircraft would be a good starting point.

 

http://harpgamer.com/harpforum/index.php?/topic/23647-howto-issue-reporting/is a good refresher for reporting issues, your report is just a tad "thin" at this point.

 

Zip up the relevant saved game and attach it to this thread. Do that by replying, when you are replying you should see a "More Reply Options" button, click that and you should see the file attachment section where you can attach the file.

Sorry I bugged you, Tony. I wasn't really trying to make a report, just asking if there was some procedural change I may have missed. I didn't see anything about it in the release notes.

 

Won't happen again.

There are very real limitations in the logic to decide if weapons are available for a particular target. It most often involves situations where there are multiple unit types in the target group (submarines in port for instance). Some of them won't be fixed (fix one, break three) but I can't be sure this is one of those cases without seeing it in action.

 

I am interested in seeing the saved game, if the attaching here proves too difficult, feel free to e-mail it to me (same e-mail that I've had forever).

I have not seen this particular staff message for quite some time now.

I've never seen that staff message before. That's the reason I posted here, I didn't know if it was an actual problem or just some feature I'd missed somehow.

 

Saved game posted in the reporting area. If you can't find it, let me know and I'll send it again. One other thing I noticed, the aircraft actually does launch, it just stays orbitting over it's base. Hooking it and then ordering the attack poses no problem. The target is a single sub group, so I don't hink target composition is the problem.

 

Thanx,
