what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - pavane - 01-25-2020 Whats does a exclamation mark ! mean when next to abridge on the map? RE: what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - Ricky B - 01-26-2020 That it is damaged I believe. Check the hex info box, it should provide more detail. This will show the bridge status as damaged if it is the bridge. If not the bridge, I would still expect the hex info box to show what the issue is.

RE: what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - pavane - 01-26-2020 hi I have looked at the hex info box before I posted my query and had a good look through the manual. But I couldn't see anything that referred to ! Movement across the bridge doesn't seem to be affected. My guess is it indicates 1 fortification,obstacles or mines are present 2 the bridge is set up for demolition and can be destroyed anytime by the owning player. 3 As you say it could mean it damaged. Thanks for your suggestion. pavane RE: what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - Ricky B - 01-27-2020 Depends on the game and graphics you are running. But in the first and only game I checked, the ! symbols were related to damaged bridges and ferries, and nothing else. So the next question would be what game, and are you running custom graphics? The ! would be a graphic, that can be changed to or from another graphic, signaling something related to the map and items as you suggest. RE: what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - pavane - 01-27-2020 interesting suggestion. Well its on windows 7 and so far have noticed it on france 40 and minsk 44 both gold.

If so, did it show that the bridge was intact? RE: what does this ! mean when next to abridge on the map? - Jison - 01-28-2020 It can also be a damaged rail situated next to that bridge, so right-click and check for rail-damage too.

Also while playing Minsk 44 last night my units advanced into the south hex of a ! bridge and a box opened saying 'bridge has not been demolished'. So I assume now that ! stand for damaged or wired for demolition bridge. That may or may not be destroyed by enemy forces using it.

No, there is no on-map display of a Wired bridge. This status is only displayed in the hex info box (using right-click). Perhaps the hex you were looking at has more than one bridge? |
