-Has master loaded that was specified in the modfile at startup of game.
-==On loading a scenario for the simple editor from start menu==
+-the DCZIP creator that allows easy unpacking of all associated sound and graphic files for end the end-user.
-Will update with master if it is referenced. Master will be referenced if you created this scenario from the Simple Editor in the first place (and for example didnt unhook it in the advance editor)
-==On saving here==
+===Dashboard===
-Will save it with current reference (or lack of reference) to a master.
+All the while a dashboard check list keeps you posted what is still missing from your scenario.
-==To update the scenario with any possible changes in the masterfile==
+===Debug screen===
-This should be automatic on loading. But if you unhooked the masterfile in the advanced editor you need to use that same advanced editor to reload the master.
+And a debug screen is in the making to allow you to spot common mistakes or any possible data corruption.
-===Advice===
+I'll add more functions to it as issues might pop-up.
-==On wanting to have different troop complements per unit==
-For example you want 3rd Panzer Div to have exactly 55 PzIII's... To accomplish this you need to use the scramble table and subtract whatever is necc. from the ideal complement.
-Surpassing TOE's is not possible. Changing them on game start within their parameters is.
