:huh I am working out to fix an issue found out by Jaro. When a unit is set to follow another one with a higher global unit number, and you remove one or more units with lower global unit number than the leading (kind of dynamic objective) unit, the link is broken between the follower units and the ...

Hi, Scenario title is missing after editing a scenario. I edited in older version of OpenSuite. Then I updated to the newest version 25.09.01.0 and tried to fix it. OG in the newest - corresponding version doesn't show the scenario title. Scenario file for an analyze send to Luis. Thanks for sample...

* Also downloading from alternative server (.pl) after failing from OG server, was not working either.

Thanks for the clarification. Should Kowdar or Csaba do something? (server malfunctioning) No server malfunctioning ... it was my fault :bonk Luckily, Kowdar saved my day !!! I forgot that open-general.com is using HTTPS instead of HTTP and I had a flag to avoid redirecting when trying to access ma...

:howdy The og_repos file - was supposed to set the order --> it should be read first --> the pl server is entered there first... Yes, servers are checked according to that list, but OG (and Suite in the next version) tries to access all the servers in the list first to set up the definitive list of...

I think the reason for these issues is that open-general.com server is checked before the .pl one and since the las break down it is never reached returning a 301 HTTP error code, which is surely due to the internal mapping of the folder where the maps are actually allocated.

What I use most is fast scrolling, by keeping [Ctrl] pressed and then move the mouse. It is actually very useful on bigger maps, 3K and above. Maybe this can be added to the list of hotkeys in the game? But this is unrelated to my find that [Ctrl] + [x] deletes a leader but also enables fast scroll...

:howdy I just don't understand one thing: Why does Suite want to connect to the internet?

Is there something wrong with my avatar submission?
Or does this just take really long?

But, next time someone want to set a custom avatar, please post the image (PNG file 32 bits, the best) and send me a PM (as Sympatyk suggested) otherwise I can easily miss the request.

Yes, of course if you replace ".png" with ".jpg" you can load a .jpg file, but yes, you are right, and I'll fix to be easier.
Thanks for reporting

The game crashed after buying an infantry unit and then switching to another class. I tested it and it works fine. Thanks for confirming :bow I have a question: the game automatically downloads maps if they're missing. Does the current Suite also have this option? No, Suite doesn't download automat...

sympatyk wrote: ↑2025-08-22 09:27, Friday
Thank you for taking the time to fix it and publish the new version.
Has the Suite also changed compared to the previous version?

No, only the version number to match OG version.

OpenGeneral and OpenSuite updated to version 25.08.21 Fixing: Undeployed unit selected in HQ was showing up in Strategic Map Units escaped through an EH hex, was not carried to next HQ Game crashed after buying an infantry unit and then switching to other class I've included also the tool to bookmar...

Hi all, luckily this last week I got enough free time to work in OG code :banana I have already fixed these issues: Undeployed unit selected in HQ was showing up in Strategic Map units escaped through EH hex, was not carried to next HQ Game crashed after buying an infantry unit and then switching to...

I see... Then you would like to have a new efile special attribute to set some unit/s to sum up current kills + suppression as suppression only, right? The problem, in addition to the fact that the code is frozen and changes are limited to fix bugs, is that there is no efile special attributes avail...

to the forum Shipright

No, there is no option to inflict only suppression in combat and I wonder why anyone would like to avoid killing enemy units

2. I set AI 3.0 (dev.) for the scenarios. I tried to test a scenario and at the end of the very first turn I were told I lost because AI captured all VHs. I had a VH and the AI had a VH, the AI sure not had both! Both VHs are set as VH for both sides (because the aggressive + fearless AI units to k...

This is a long standing doubt I have. :huh When ART or TB attack. Or when a unit with range two attack an unit with range one that can't fight back. The attacker will always shot first and there wont be any counter attack isn't? Does the initiative matters? :dunno Sorry I missed this post :bonk Not...

Don't want to start a new topic over this, but I have prototypes with 0 transport weight getting a transport attached. My last one that popped up was a tracked tank destroyer proto which got a half-track transport assigned. How to guarantee that this won't happen? I thought having zero set will mea...

Weight zero means unit can use any transport ... Watch the tooltip when you put the mouse over any check-box

:howdy I am trying to fix another strange bug, crashing the game when you buy a given unit and then click to select a different class to buy another unit. Another strange issue never met or reported by anyone Yes, I described it - I showed it on the video (set -- video quality to 1080p) I thought y...

I got to find why sometimes escaped units show up in next HQ and sometimes they don't :phew The reason is because the ship has and occupied hangar, and when they escape using the EH, one of the many conditions checked, was misplaced and thus bypassed. Until I can release a new version, and you meet ...

I made a first test and found that the 2 core units effectively don't show when carried over the next scenario but they appear normally if you load the gf_003_Victory_100%.xcsv created at the end of the scenario, because the 2 units are not lost, they are just hidden on next HQ, so tomorrow I'll be ...

Gamarjoba Luis :) You'll get the same result in the Narvik scenario. Here you need to exit five units in order to gain a victory. If you exit your core unit (KM Admiral Graf Spee), it will be gone in the next scenario. You can download my savegame her: https://1drv.ms/u/c/b5e4ffe91c908f62/Ecyt4Kofi...

I played this out couple times starting from Denmark Streit (my last save). If I don't exit the ships I lose. If I exit all the ships they are removed. On the 19th I have the video and what happened you can take a look at it then. I get free clicks haha. Also should there be some music (background ...
