OOB not fully deployed

Post by Bkim »

I have completed the Forces Editing and am attempting to Deploy the units, however I am receiving an error msg at this point. "The OOB is not fully defined".
I viewed the OOB and see that there are two units (copied- unit ID with + after) listed as unassigned. I can't find the units anywhere in the "Forces" development screens. Short of deleting the entire "Forces" setup is there anything else I can do?

the "Forces" development screens

This confuses me a bit. What do you mean by that?

Open the menu edit->forces (this is where you should have seen the unassigned units) You must assign them to a formation respectively create a new one for those two units. Just right click on the "unassigned" button and select "New formaton". Does that help?

The units do not show in the Force Editor. All other units have been assigned. I only knew about them because they show when I "view the OOB". They show up as the last two units. [&:]

If this was happening to me, and if the situation was as described, then I would go to the force editor, go to the end of the list, go to the next unit, and try deleting it. Then repeat.

If that didn't work, then I'd go back, go to these units, make them something, assign them to a formation, and then see where I was. Assuming that worked, then I'd go back and delete the units.

Or export the units with F4, delete the two units in the oob file and re-import the OOB via F5.

The offending units (4 Pz Bde+- twice) only show in the OOB screen (menu-view-oob), but not in the Force Editor.

I attempted the F4 and it exported the OOB at the platoon level (Inf, Tanks, etc).

Any other suggestions?

thanks
