3. JTLS 5.0 Issues Air Mission & Convoy Simultaneously Move Unit
Strategic Airlift For Real-Life TPFDD Movement
Multi-Point Group Move Not Handled Properly
Single Point Move – Working As Designed
Need To Understand The Issue With Multi-Point Move

March 2017

4. Single Point Group Move
Start Location
Lead Unit Holds Move Task
When Move Task Starts:
Model computes offset from lead unit for each other unit
Each unit gets an independent move
Each Unit moves on its own to get the the proper location
End Location

5. Multi Point Group Move
Multi-Points Converted To Individual Group Moves
First Move Starts – Offsets Computed
Start Location
First Move Complete – Rest Of Group Not Complete
Second Move Starts – Offsets Computed
End Location

15. Remove Combat System Prototype
What Does This Do For JTLS-GO
The Link Between CSP and FLPs Go Away
Causes Problems With Attrition Type
Give Units Exactly What Combat Systems They Have
Makes Repository Easier To Implement
Allows User To Reduce Size Of Their Scenarios
