Champagne Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 I've read and re-read the Tutorial on manual page 28. I'm trying to learn how to Stack Commands. I can't seem to get the hang of it. It's the part about "left clicking on the colored line", I think, that's confusing. When I do that, the waypoint path is altered to reflect a new waypoint where I just clicked on the colored line. After that, things get all messed up, as the entire sequence of stacked commands gets changed to "Slow Crawl" which is supposed to be the last move command that the mortar crew takes before they Deploy the mortar in the tutorial. Is there a better step by step explanation of command stacking somewhere? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVulture Posted May 18, 2011 Share Posted May 18, 2011 Stacking movement commands is done automatically. Select your unit, select move order, click waypoint, select a different move order, plot a waypoint, and it will follow on from the last one. You only need to select a waypoint if you a) want to change the movement order to that waypoint, or to set a face, smoke, target or arc command at that waypoint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champagne Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 I think I've figured it out. You have to de-select by right clicking before entering the next Stacked Command. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a better step by step explanation of command stacking somewhere? I had some questions about stacking commands at the same place in the tutorial: How many commands can you stack on one selected waypoint? How can you see what commands you have stacked on a waypoint? In the tutorial, they stack a Deploy Weapon and a Cover Arc on one waypoint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wodin Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 when you finsh all the moves then click on the unit and you should see it's plot...not sure deploy weapon is shown though...cover arcs certainly are and target lines aswell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisND Posted May 26, 2011 Share Posted May 26, 2011 How can you see what commands you have stacked on a waypoint? A unit can simultaneously perform one command from each tab (the admin tab happens instantly, so that doesn't matter). So one each from the movement, combat, and special tabs. So the tutorial example of stacking commands is about as complicated as it can get for one waypoint. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
