Just tried a 2nd time and it ended at -1784 before 930am <sigh> I guess it's just not going to work for me.
Hmm, maybe I didn't do something right or maybe your game is just cursed.. :laugh:

I'll look into it.

Anderson's Division.. What OOB, what commander are you choosing, and what battle size?
3rd day of Gettysburg OOB, Army vs Army as usual it's the only one I ever play. I'm choosing Anderson "Division Commander level" and giving orders via courier to his brigades. I think I'm cursed for the Line of Sight sandbox but I like the setup of it best as I love watching the artillery fire before the actual battle begins. I just can't get past 930am whether I fight or not. Of course I can continue the battle after the score news page but it doesn't feel the same without having some end score when I'm done.

You have to remove the mod's Base folder.
I saw that, thanks Adukes. My goof.

Please download it again kellysheroes. It should work now.

The score continuously updates. Whenever you feel like stopping, go to the menu and press 'End Battle'. You'll be taken to the newspaper page and score totals. If you are not satisfied at that point, reenter the battle again. You can do this as many times as you like.

Oh I didn't know this...why didn't you tell me? lol As long as it keeps keeping score I can just continue after the FAIL page. Thanx.

Ok, so apparently setting it to zero doesn't set it to unlimited like Norb said it would.. I'll have to fuss at him for giving us wrong information.. Wait, I can't do that, he's the boss. :laugh:

I'll just have to set it to like -999,999 or something that would be impossible to reach.

The joy of modding.. All trial and error. :sick:

And I'll second that LOL... It would have helped if I actually tested this. The game starts, and then I get a ROUTED message... :laugh:

Sorry.. My mind has been elsewhere.. Some good college football the last couple of days.

Hey it's all well and good at least you aren't like Steve at Battlefront who thinks his programming and chit don't stink. :) He'd be saying it was my fault by now and probably ban me for LOLing him. ;0

K,

I believe I said the exact same thing on page one of this topic. "Hit the Return To Battle Key". Sound familiar?

You know they say the first sign of senility is "repeating yourself"? ;) (rolls on floor laughing)

It is your fault, and you are now hereby banned for life! :laugh:

Kidding of course.. You helped to improve the game here. This change will probably make it into the next patch.

Fixed the mod. And yes I tested it this time. Now the failgrades are -999,999... If you're able to reach that fail grade, well, then you really will be banned from the game.. :laugh: ;)
