Hi

I posted this on steams' discussion forum.

In two different scenarios now I've had an AO {oiler} suddenly run out of fuel and become dead in the water. ( Ironic considering they are supposed to be full of the stuff.) I think both times after a sub torpedo attack on the task force and an ordered ...

Hi

On the way , thanks for your time.

<t> Hi All<br/>
<br/>
For the first time ever in COTA I'm getting a consistent CTD , it happens around 10:36 hrs on day five of the Pindos scenario.<br/>
It happens from two different saves , one an autosave , but if I restart the scenario it doesn't seem to do it , at least I've checked as far ...

Thanks , sounds good .

My next restart will be a Lemurs scenario on your map.

I suspect this game will still be giving good service many years from now , thanks in great part to people like you. [&o]

This sounds a must try .

As I tend to play exclusively as Allies vs AI I was wondering if the AI handles the new map ok or if there are any tips I should follow to give the AI a fair shot. ( Lets face it , it needs all the help it can get. )

It should already be known, at least I remember confirming the problem in a similar thread, early after 1.4 release. As you said, it happens sometimes after you saved the game and hit the Exit Button in the Save Game window. As the save is not ...

<t> My bet is that you have moved them to cooktown peicemea via airlift or APD and when the last fragment arrived the unit disappeared. The troops still show as you say but have no effect and can't be contacted. Its the bug thats been around from the start , you have to be very careful moving units ...

I've found the save where the Burma Corps HQ unit goes stealth and sent it off.

Good Luck

If you have the save the turn before they went stealth, it would be of help.<br/>
<br/>
Once they are stealthed (break in a linked list somewhere), the damage is done. Need to catch the damage in the act to fix the cause.

It seems my Chindit brigade at Myitkyina ( how do you pronounce that anyway ?) is not lost ... <br/>
They have merely discovered stealth technology [X(] . <br/>

Under games started under 1.40 it is still possible to lose a unit while transporting it.<br/>
<br/>
To avoid losing the unit you need to keep track of how much of the unit has been transported. Right at the end, just before you transport the ...

Is it worth sending in a save of a game where it happens if that game was started under 1.30 and upgraded to 1.40 ?
I understood they only want saves of pure 1.40 games.

Can anyone confirm that a new game started under 1.40 stops the problem ?

<t> I'm playing as Allies vs AI in a scenario 09 game started under 1.30 but now playing under 1.40 , it's July 42 and I've just re-captured Myithyina in Burma and decide to airlift in my spanking new Chindit Brigade from Dacca. All goes well until the last fragment is transfered , then phhhtt! the ...
