Smoke/Illum Ammo Tracking

[Blackcloud6]

For OBA that wouldn't be a problem. That is because they have a specific prototype assigned to them. I could hijack Matt's torpedo/fuel checkoff menu and put it into the OBA prototype, and that would be done.

On-board weapons are a problem. The PG weapon prototype includes anti-tank, antiaircraft and infantry guns, as well as mortars and field artillery. So, if I did the same thing, AT, AA and IG would get smoke & illumination. We could probably live with that. (Infantry guns should probably have smoke anyway.) Crating a separate prototype for on-board indirect would require overhauling every such OOB extension, that's 154 of them. Doing it by individual piece would obviously be worse.

That doesn't include self-propelled artillery and mortars, which have the PG unit prototype. Putting the menu in that prototype means infantry, leaders, and everything except trucks and unarmed jeeps, would get smoke & illumination. Most of us wouldn't want to see that. So that would mean individual rework. as in north of 1000 pieces.

Maybe then do the menu option for OBA and a counting counter for onboard guns; i could then be stacked underneath.  This should lesson your workload as you won't have to go in and mod all the gun counters and it eliminates the problems you mention.
