Fast Transport evacuate from beach

[Major Ball]

Have have orderd a fast transports fleet to pick up a ground unit on a beach but it doesnt move from port. Its says get 'unit identification' in the load area but it doesnt move. Have tried different settings like patrol/do not retire etc but nothing happens.

Is there something I need to do?

Ok, only thing I can think of, is your not selecting the unit to be picked-up. The order should be; pick LOAD TROOPS, then PICK UP UNIT selecting the one unit only.

I beleive I am selecting the unit because it tells me the designation of the unit I select with get: in fromt of it eg get: 101 RN Eng

No - you can not use fast transport to pick up units on a beach (even though the design strongly implies that you can).

i spent some weeks troubleshooting this several years ago only to be told it is not possible (and working as designed).

Personally, i think the list of units that can be picked up should reflect those that CAN actually be picked up...
