B-17
for
Vassal
Version. 2.0
Designed under Vassal 2.7 / Upgraded to
3.2+
(w/512mb Heap Size)
I have added a new right-click menu item, called Kills, for the Composite Mission Record.
Basically,
it will keep track of your fighter kills. This saves you time from
referencing each individual Mission Log, trying to find out 'who' did
'what.' (Craig68x)
All other modifications I made are listed on the Vassal download page for this module.
=========================================================================
A) As with
almost all Vassal modules, right click on most everything to learn
the counters' capabilities and/or special features (especially the
Logs/Forms).
B) Each new game starts with all
counters pre-placed and/or available on the board.
C)
All mission forms are "active" and require a click and then
the ENTER key to edit or toggle the information in that field.
D)
The Composite Mission Form has some different characteristics.
1. Edit the
first line when appropriate.
2. Click each cell (or the whole
line) and select TRANSCRIBE.
3. All lines after the first will
not be available until the preceding line has been "transcribed."
4.
If overwrites occur, use the main tool bar UNDO button until it's
fixed.
5. As a LAST resort, you can delete a cell with ALT
CTRL X, but make sure you don't delete the very last one!
E) Some
counters have been combined with others and will require either ENTER
or CTRL-F to access...
ENGINE OUT / ENGINE FIRE / OIL LK
GAS LEAK 1st / GAS LEAK 2nd / GAS LEAK 3rd
(Position) MG's / SPRAY FIRE
FUEL LEAK BAILOUT / OXYGEN FIRE
F) Some
counters have been additionally made available combined...
German Aircraft – ACE / GREEN, FIGHTER CONTINUES / BREAKS OFF.
B-17 Crew member – WOUNDS / SERIOUS WOUNDS, ACE / FROSTBITE.
