Re: OT: Not many left now ....

My 98-year-old father-in-law is also around. He was drafted in 1944 into the Navy and was slated to enter officer training until he failed an eye test. He was then sent into the so-called Eddy Program, which was an extremely difficult technical program training men to operate and, as important, fix ...

Revival of Pago Pago, logistics, and the lack of xAKs

False advertising: the article below DOES have a map with Pago Pago on it, but isn't really about that port. Instead, the article is about the current lack of US commercial merchant ships (xAKs) for military use in the case of a war way across the Pacific Ocean. Perhaps the last update of WITP: AE i...

Revival of Tinian airfield

Interesting article on Tinian, logistics, and more: The remote Pacific airfield used to launch the atomic bombings of Japan during World War II is being revived with a different foe in mind: China. Runways emerging from the encroaching jungles on the tiny island of Tinian, a U.S. territory, are part...

Re: Update

I have been informed that those pilots that come in like that, come in from the editor and apparently it is when those actual pilots historically came into those units. There is no need to take them from the training programs. Yes, I found it annoying since those pilots usually are not trained to m...

Here is the sort of thing I've been seeing. The first example might involve returning wounded. That's fine. But the second two examples involve pilots being automatically added to units despite "manual" being the setting. And, these pilots are clearly not appropriate for these two units as...

Re: New! v1127 Public Beta Available

Ideally, the dialogue box for confirming disbanding would appear only i f the TF commander was manually selected. That would make it more helpful. I imagine, though, that implementing a check for a manually selected TF commander is more tricky that it might appear at first glance. And, in any case, ...

Re: My TF wont move

One thing you might attempt is to put the low-fuel ship(s) in a TF with a ships or more that do have lots of fuel. Then, tell the ships to "replenish at sea."This might lead to low-fuel ships to take fuel from the ships with adequate fuel. The, once the low-fuel ships have more fuel, you m...

Re: My TF wont move

A green circle can indicate that some ship(s) in the TF do not have adequate fuel to make the journey that the TF is assigned. Yes, some other ships in the TF might have enough for them to make the journey, but these other ships don't want to share their fuel with the low-fuel ship(s). Why? Because ...

Thanks. I'll give that a shot.

I hope the above works in Windows 10, but I'm not sure what the relevant display screens look like in Windows 10. I use Windows 11 on a laptop with a Ryzen 7 pro CPU with Radeon 780M Graphics & 16 GB of RAM, so your experience might be different than mine. What I've found is that if the screen g...

Re: Not possible to use the game in 2nd monitor?

I just hooked up a 2nd monitor a couple of days ago. It is a, well, game-changer. So far as I can tell, WITP only works when it is displayed on what is identified in Windows as the "main display." You can make your second monitor the main display by going to settings --> display. Then clic...

Re: Post CV & Amphibious Battle Help Needed

I did not have the CVE in a replenishment TF. I disbanded then reformed the TF as a replenishment TF but I still do not see any option to add replacement planes. Is it something that happens automatically? I am using 1126a if that makes a difference . Do the air units needing replacements have &quo...

Re your screen issue: if you already haven't tried, go to your desktop, right click, pick Display Settings, then see what appears under Scale. If 100% doesn't appear, change the scale to 100% and then reload WITP and see what happened. (Typically, Windows sets 125% as the default, and if you change ...

I'm not sure the manual has an explanation for "supply max" or information about how to turn on/off stockpiling (by clicking on no/yes). See page 189.
