Hi all, I started learning Vassal only 1 week ago, so please bear with me.

1) I have a Map with various Boards all concurrently visible on it
(arranged in a 2x2 matrix, say); each of the boards is divided in 3
(say) multizoned grids. Now, it seems to me that CurrentZone reports
the right name only for pieces sitting in the zones belonging to the
first board (first row, first column of the matrix). On all other
boards it reports no zone at all (null). Is this a known bug? Or am I
doing something wrong?

2) Is it possible to "send to location" pieces by giving a region name
(the ones defined with irregular grids) instead of X,Y positions? How?

3) Suppose I have Infantry and Cavalry units (infantry.gif and
cavarly.gif in the Basic Piece definition). For both of them I have
created "Fired" piece layouts (same gifs with "Fired" overwritten). It
seems to me that I am forced to define Layer traits for each one of
them in turn, just to be able to pick the right "Fired" image (all the
rest - name, hotkeys etc being the same). This is a bit annoying since
I have many of these different units sharing the same Layer definition
(but for the image layout), and each time I change my mind I have to
change that many times over. Is this really so or am I doing something
wrong?

Any help greatly appreciated, especially on #1 which is critical for
me right now, and thxs for this great engine!
