Camp War Squads

I've finished implementing Camp War Squads*.

As you'll see, you set a Squad to this special status from the Squad's webpage. You can only set a squad to Camp War status if it's currently in camp. The squad can then take vehicles from the camp or from its primary town.

You cannot unset this special status if the squad currently has a mix of vehicles from town and camp.

These squads also show you their total Fast and Slow CR (as well as overall CR as normal).

They cannot travel or scout. They can only be used to assign to a combat that has been scheduled in a contested Hex on the new map. (And of course this will have to be a combat in which the squad's camp is involved).


* Bugs are possible. Nay, likely.

Yes, it's just a regular squad apart from this new flag.
You only need one of them.

I am juggling squads now as it is. There is 9 towns. Camps. Travel all over for coe and supply.

Please give more squads.

Particularly as you could potentially have multiple combats to resolve.

That's true. It's not just one.
I've increased the limit to 25. Hopefully I found all the places in the code where this is checked.. let me know if there's issues.

Hello. Are these squads flexible in terms of adding/removing cars or are cars assigned then 'trapped' in the squad until the next deployment week?

They're flexible. The only requirement is to assign cars before the battle, and they'll be available again shortly after it.

I wonder can Camp Managers 'SEE' the Deployed CR to tiles?
I would think this to be important as camps owners work with their managers to maintain the camp.
If they cannot it will be much more difficult to communicate the strategies between Camp Owners and Managers.
;) Please advise

Looks like I pulled the first fight. I have a squad set, but no way to confirm the CR matches what was deployed. I also added fuel to make sure squad could travel to the camp I have the scheduled match with (Is this necessary). Then, do I just wait for match to start automatically at the scheduled time?

Sam, could you check what I have set to verify all is correct or if I missed any steps to insure this goes off as planned?

Thank You in advance.

Fuel isn't necessary.

You will need to assign a squad ahead of time, but I haven't implemented that yet, Working on it today. It's been a busy week getting all the code in place for this.

I still have a max of only 16 squads, so if you raised it to 25 its not working for me.

From the client, or website? it should work from the website anyway.
