Supply Point config Problems

Post by Kopfdorfer »

Greetings , All

I am having difficulty configuring an Air Supply Point .
I successfully created the SP I wanted in the correct location , correct alignment etc.
I deleted the SPs I was not going to use.

When I go into the Admin console I select 1 x C47 available at 0 delay.

My MP does not load correctly after this.

In the SEDB I examined the Resupply Replacements Table in the DB.
The Unit Name field is blank.
I assume the Unit Name field must have a value , and that is the error.
I make sure the historical date restriction is unchecked.
I select a British Transport Regiment name with no Campaign Sector Affilitations.
No luck.
I try the Verbose Unit Name.
No luck.
I add the Campaign Sector name for my Campaign to the Regiment Name in the Airforce Units Table and retry the Regiment Name.
No Luck.
I try the Verbose Unit Name with the Campaign Sector Filled in .
No Luck.
I replace my table , containing only one Supply Point and One Withdraw Point with the
original table from a default DB.
SEMP loads.
I change one of the existant Supply Points to Air Supply ( all were Ship Supply/Withdraw on this map)
and add a suitable altitude.
I go into the Admin function and again select a single C-47 available immediately.
SEMP will not load.
I examine the new Resupply Replacements Table.
There are 2 lines.
One is the line pertinent to the C-47 ( no Regiement affiliation) and one line is all blanks.
I delete the line with all blank fields.
SEMP still does not load.
I clear the values from all the fields in the remaining line.
SEMP loads.

I am at a loss.

Any assistance appreciated.

Hi,
In resupply_replacements under ObjType it should be Object_Type from object_specifications. Unit name not needed. Make sure you have removed supply restrictions and spaces in supply name if there are any.
If that doesn't help try to move supply coordinate 5-10km away from the edge of the map toward center. Few times i had issues like this. Sometimes problem was in admin view, while for commanders was all ok. Put some pictures here if you don't fix it.

Start from scratch again, and try one change at a time, checking as you go.

You don't mention how you tried to configure the Supply Point. Were you using the MP tool for doing this, or were you simply editing the DB table?
