The text will be corrected in the GG for the next release. The actual max warhead size cannisters will resupply is 4 ( see the WW2 MOBHack help file )

4? Nice! That means they'll resupply the 60mm mortars the USMC uses at company level (that's always been a minor annoyance for me).

From what we can see it's been like that for quite awhile so this shouldn't have been an issue for at least a couple of years or longer. Its just that section of MBT MOBHack help was not updated

No doubt true, it's just I assumed (yeah, yeah we all know what assuming gets you) MOBHack help was accurate

1 / How many people do you think actually check the WH sizes of all their units before sending them over to a cannister to re-supply ( besides you ? )

2/ How many people do you think actually read MOBHack Help ? ( besides you ? )

3/ How many people do you think actually read the game guild

( admittedly there will be more 3's than 2's and 2's than 1's )


ALSO... just for fun I checked the original, untouched V1 copies of the game I have on my HD and ...

has been in the the WW2 MOBHack help since then but the MBT MOBHack help didn't catch the change .It's one of those little things that get overlooked for years then someone notices. It's now been corrected

That's only because I'm trying to "revise" an OOB without breaking the game too badly. I KNOW many (most?) of my revisions won't be suitable for inclusion in the game, but I'd very much like them to be "realistic" and "reasonable" within the WinMBT's general guidelines and given limitations enforced by the games source code.

None of this means I can't have fun trying to "improve" the "simulation" value of the game...even if I have to break game conventions left-and-right to do so

Look at the bright side Andy/Don - if nothing else you should get a few laughs out of my alterations.
