WITE Situational Map Generator

Post by Niedowidek_slith »

Hi,

I would like to make situational map generator, similar to this: https://www.matrixgames.com/forums/tm.a ... age=1&key=


In short: a tool to generate maps for your AARs.

I took a look into WITE2 Commander's Report but I don't see units' locations. The "Hex" column shows up only for battle, depot, industry and storage locations.

Am I missing something or they are really not present in CRs?
If I'm not missing anything - is it possible to add hex information to every unit in CR, please ? (every own unit and visible enemy unit) ** a friendly wink to developers **

Thanks to fulcrum28 I got in contact with Joel Billings, who promised to bring up adding units' positions to CR in a discussion with developers' team.

This is now implemented:
• Added x and y coordinate columns to the CR screen for ground units.

Unfortunately I didn't have time for coding this tool yet :(
