I have some questions on Vassal.
- How to move units in a stack.
I have a stack of four units. I want move two of them in a hex and the remaining two in another hex. Now, it looks like that I must select two of them, move them elsewhere on the board, stack them together, return to starting hex and then move them to the designed hex and just the same for the other two. There is an easier way to do the same thing?
- Where can I download Vassal 3.1 Designer Guide?
I have already posted this request long time ago, but, at present, I received no reply.
- How to do a module extension.
I have some variant scenarios, with new maps and unit counters for some games. I need help and suggestions about this matter.
Many thanks to all the guys who will find the time to reply.
New myself, but I can help with #1:
When stacks are expanded units can be individually added to the current selection by SHIFT-clicking them. (Unfortunately the toggle doesn’t seem to work, so if you add a unit by mistake you need to start over.)
When stacks are unexpanded you can select the entire stack by clicking it. However if you have just unexpanded the stack it contracts with just the top counter selected - you need to click on empty space and then back on the stack to get the whole thing.
Many thanks for your kind reply. I will try it in my next move.
Yours,
