Campaign stock and counts
Open Campaign > Painted model availability, or use the GM dashboard link. Campaign players can open the same read-only report from the Campaign menu. Only painted rows in linked campaign inventories whose paint scheme is configured for at least one campaign company appear. Other paint schemes are excluded from the table and totals.
Assigned counts saved physical-model assignments. Saving Destroyed or Truly destroyed returns the model to stock; damage short of destruction retains it. Run Admin > Database updates after installation to reconcile older destroyed assignments. Reserved counts only explicit pending salvage purchase model selections not yet posted as purchases. Free / unassigned is physical quantity minus assigned and reserved, never below zero.
Unmapped models remain physically unassigned and are identified as needing a chassis mapping. Mapping gaps and units without model assignments are not reservations. Resolve them before promising stock: existing purchase eligibility checks may still block a purchase. The report does not change those protections or allocate models.
Use availability and text filters together; filtering stays in place with JavaScript and works as an ordinary form without it. The report is read-only for campaign members. Inventory settings remain GM-only; model assignment links appear only for the GM or your own companies. Other company unit links open their read-only equipment list. Nonmembers cannot open the report. Company unit links show saved condition; review model assignments through the company workflow.
Destroyed units return models
Destroyed and Truly destroyed unit saves clear the physical model assignment and preserve its previous assignment in release history. The unit and purchase records remain historical evidence; no refund or additional purchase is posted. A model becomes eligible for the configured painted discount again when no other assignment or reservation consumes it.
After installing this release, run Admin > Database updates to release older destroyed-unit assignments. The repair is repeatable and does not change quantities or company balances. Destroyed units cannot reserve another model; a restored repairable unit needs a new available model assignment.
Company ownership and model assignments
Acquisition selects and saves eligible models automatically. Merchant purchases, salvage and starting equipment use the same model-selection policy and reserve physical stock when the acquisition is posted. Painted stock must match the company scheme. Unpainted stock can supply a merchant discount and a painting allocation; printable designs never become physical allocations.
Company Information > Model status shows the saved assignment or preparation status without dropdowns or Save buttons. Players do not need to assign models. When no eligible model exists, the unit awaits printing or painting; this is different from a deliberate outside-model exception.
Only the campaign GM can open Correct this model record for one saved unit. The correction form permits a painted model, Awaiting company model preparation, or Outside model (GM confirmed). Unpainted stock cannot be selected as a finished model. Corrections are audited and do not post SP or change purchase prices.
The GM correction saves in place with JavaScript and retains entered values after rejection. An uncertain response requires checking saved state before retrying. Without JavaScript, saving returns to company model status.
GM model preparation
The GM dashboard shows the total Models to prepare and a link to the complete work list. Open Campaign > Models to prepare for the paginated report and exact unit links. This preparation list is GM-only; players retain access to Painted model availability.
Choose the printer icon at the upper-right of the table to open the complete preparation report in a separate tab, including every unit across all pages. In that tab, choose the printer icon or use the browser Print command to print or save a PDF. The original report stays open; menus, breadcrumbs and action controls are hidden on paper.
Paint assigned printed model uses an existing unpainted assignment. Otherwise the report first suggests spare painted stock in the company paint scheme, then spare printed stock to paint, then a linked printable design to print and paint. Missing designs or broken mappings are flagged for review. Printable designs can be reused.
Beside Print and paint, choose Printed to open a small quantity popover beside the button. Enter the quantity you have finished printing and choose Add printed models. Cancel or Escape closes it without saving. This stays in the same tab. Without JavaScript, the quantity field is already visible and Printed submits it. The quantity is added to shared unpainted stock for that chassis family; a Wasp represents Wasp variants only. Five means five additional copies. Existing matching stock is increased, or a generic row and linked unpainted inventory are created as needed. The originating work item receives first suggestion priority, without reserving copies.
Preparation-created inventory includes model name, unit type, exact chassis match, quantity and the appropriate stock or company scheme. Weight class, family roles and unpainted tech base are filled from exact-family local catalog data through the shared inventory metadata summarizer. Existing manual values and painted faction/colors are preserved. Unavailable metadata stays blank rather than being guessed. Admin > Database updates also fills missing metadata on prior preparation rows identified by their audit records, without changing quantities, assignments or purchase history.
Beside a painting task, choose Painted after physically finishing one model. The action requires a compatible printed copy, reduces printed quantity by one, adds one painted copy in the company's configured scheme, and assigns it to that exact unit. Existing painted rows are increased, or a matching row is created. The completed unit leaves the preparation list. Printing and painting are separate steps; Painted cannot create missing printed stock.
If the company has no paint scheme, Painted opens Campaign inventory settings at that company's scheme controls without changing stock. Configure its scheme, then return to Models to prepare to record painting. The settings page includes a Back to models to prepare link when opened this way.
Physical models are suggested only once across the full campaign list, subtracting saved assignments and explicit pending salvage reservations. Suggestions are planning guidance, not reservations. Destroyed units and uncommitted starting drafts are excluded; repairable damaged units remain. Viewing never changes stock. Printed and Painted are GM-only audited actions; quantities and assignment are saved together with duplicate-submit protection. No SP is posted, and historical purchases, prices and discounts stay unchanged. If a save response is uncertain, reload to check inventory before trying again; it is never retried automatically.
Missing historical model links
Admin > Database updates separates old automatic No GM inventory model used placeholders from actual outside-model decisions. It repairs a missing or waiting link when one eligible painted row has sufficient uncontested capacity for all matching units. It preserves already assigned physical stock, destroyed units and audited deliberate outside-model choices. Saving an unchanged old placeholder is not treated as a deliberate outside-model decision.
Ambiguous inventory rows, flexible proxies, pending purchase reservations and insufficient capacity remain GM review cases. Viewing reports never assigns stock. Reconciliation changes model relationships and status only: no purchase price, discount, ledger amount, unit condition or pilot assignment is recalculated. Newly added unpainted stock still affects only future merchant quotes and read-only preparation suggestions.
