BDW Posted May 14, 2011 Share Posted May 14, 2011 Is there a way, or any plans to add, so that you can go "back" a step in the artillery process, to make a small tweak or adjustment, instead of having to cancel and start the request over? I keep having to start from scratch. For example, I get to the Confirm/Cancel step and I realize that I want to change it rom 2 guns to 4 guns, but instead of being able to go back a step or click on guns and change to 4, I have to start all over again from scratch (which can be a pain when LOS to those two end points of the carefully placed line target is hard to find). Also, is there a way to adjust from Light to Heavy in the middle of a fire support mission, without having to redo the entire process and have LOS, etc? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandur Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 i think many would take this if it was given to them, but since "the list" is long its very unrealistic that we get this anytime soon. that´s why i did not answer here in the first place and other too, i guess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 If you go to the spotter, then go to his artillery menu and select the firing unit you should see an 'adjust mission' option next to the 'cancel mission'. Theoretically, if you don't adjust too far from the original you'll get a shorter countdown than a full cancel/replot. In my experience it's not a particularly great discount adjusting instead of canceling/replotting but you take what you can get. You can't add or subtract guns, just adjust the target. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDW Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share Posted May 15, 2011 Good point. There are lots of more important features on "the list" for sure. i wonder what the top 10 features are... Thanks MikeyD, that is helpful! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It counts for more in WEGO, when any "ceasefire" uses up an entire minute before you can replot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenAsJade Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 Here's a +1 for a "back" key on the arty dialog. I'm finding I have to cancel the whole dialog and start again if I make a mistake. Hey, I make mistakes! What a pain! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie_Oz Posted May 15, 2011 Share Posted May 15, 2011 +1 for me too, it is fairly realistic to be able to say "Correction to my last" rather than start it all again. It counts for more in WEGO, when any "ceasefire" uses up an entire minute before you can replot. Serves you right WEGO scum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
