TCing Subordinates

Post by born2see »

I'm playing "On to the Round Tops" , which by the way,I'm going to win this morning and in trying to TC my subordinates I noticed it doesn't work correctly for me.

Here's what I did: I selected Law (me), hit the TC Subordinates key, and arrowed through my Brigade Commanders and I noticed that they weren't TC'd by the color of the TC icon.

I've tried this a number of times but the behavior is the same. Now one thing which may or may not matter is I have re-mapped the TC subordinates key from "0" to "Home" because I don't have a NumPad.

Is there something which overrides this command? I'd like to know because keeping these guys where they should be is like herding cats.

Thanks,

B

I'm assuming that by "TC Subordinates" you mean the 'tcofficers' command. Maybe 'Home' won't assign, try another Key.

Correct. Sorry.

Tried "RSHIFT" and "B". The only one who get's TC'd is the one immediately below on the "Down Arrow" key. In this case it's Sheffield.

Before I tested this I made sure all the subordinates were NOT TC'd in case there was a toggle effect and that they were all attached.

Not the most important issue in the world but I'm trying to get as many points as I can and the 'bleeping' Commanders keep wandering off the objective and costing me VP's.

Really don't know the keyboard problem with this command, hey LP, a little help here.

I just know that the command works as advertised, it's on my toolbar, and is downright handy. It should be on the stock toolbar...demand it and get a following, the band wagon thing ya know. ;)

I'm sure it does. When I get a chance I'll test it with a USB keyboard and the stock keyboard.csv file. In the meantime I've got this "mouse" thing. Not quite sure how it works but I'll figure it out. ;)
