Post subject: | Mill Springs (Campaign Shiloh) Weather |
Good day gentlemen I was working through the huge scenario list of Campaign Shiloh and checked what scenarios I wanted to play. Now the series of Mill Springs scenarios makes me scratch my head because I had expected to find the series of scenarios with "Weather_" in front of the filename to use a PDT that uses the weather feature but the "winter 1861-2_Weather.pdt" that is used doesn't have any weather for the January 1862 where Mill Springs takes place and here I wonder if this is maybe an error, especially as the Weather is always mentioned as being very wet. Anyone any clue? |

The Mills Springs weather scenarios have reduced visibility, movement, and combat throughout the turns. This is WAD, I believe. What is happening is the scenario uses the last weather entry prior to the current date from the pdt file, from November 7, 1861: 1 1861 11 7 15 20 52 20 110 95 -10 0 Clearing note that visibility is 20 hexes, movement costs are increased by 10%, infantry attack reduced by 5% and cannon fire reduced by 10%. Standard HPS effects for a stormy battlefield. |

With the Banshee weather mods, you will get this information in the bottom information line, whenever a modification applies: ![]() (note, our weather mod for Peninsula is coming soon, just finishing up the read me file at my leisure...) |

Oh didn't know that the last entry is used, I thought when there is nothing for that specific date in the pdt then nothing is used. May I ask how you do it that the info comes up on the bottom line? |

Sure, you just add the information at the end of the weather string in the pdt file and it will display it. |
