This can be a great way to flag to an AI that you do not want them on your front, or to stop them from joining a tight landing situation. The blue flag next to it lets you control allied access to the node. This lets you get around issues where your capital ends up cut off or surrounded, but also comes with a period of bad supply as the new location is prepared. The star icon lets you move your supply capital to a new location, provided that you have sufficient surrender progress. There are also some other options on a hub. The dark purple areas below are reduced to local supply only, and the highlighted red-orange areas indicate locations where there are units suffering from significant supply issues. The amount depends on various factors like terrain, crossing rivers etc. For each province in distance that supply needs to travel from a hub, there is a reduction in the amount as some is lost. This is represented by the brighter colors below. Finally, the mapmode has changed to better show the spread of supply as well as current status for divisions.įrom each hub connected back to the capital, potential supply is projected outwards - adding up when overlapping. Trucks are now less of a strict necessity, rather something you can assign to hubs to make sure they can project supplies further away.

It's now possible for divisions to supply from multiple hubs. The iteration we have now aims at addressing these shortcomings. We also felt that the way the mapmode worked made it very difficult to project how well supply was flowing.

We found that the way truck need could take off and spike was hard to deal with and that watching out so you didn't overload individual supply hubs was a bit too intensive. Since we last talked about supply, a few things have changed. Before we begin, I’ll leave a heads up that this will be the last dev diary before we break for summer, so don’t expect anything new until some time in August at the earliest.
