Production Planning Nightmare

[Aranthus]

Can someone explain why the computer keeps changing my production planning? In initial production planning I set up to have two British resources traded to France. Then when I get to final production planning the computer has kept one of the resources for England and sent another resource to France, completely screwing up the pan and since its trade, I can't change it. Nothing has changed in the convoy system to account for it. This happens every turn. However I have the resource trade planned, the computer changes it, resulting in either having to go back in and reset things, or my countries don't get the resources they are supposed to get. what should be one of the more enjoyable parts of the game is unplayable.

You will need to use Default settings and the convoy route capability to force those over what MWiF does with it's own "Compute". Check out the production tutorial video and there are some threads in WiF School (which may be a page or two down by now) which show the steps for setting Defaults and Convoy routes.

If you've already done all that can you post a saved game from just after production planning? The beta testers can try to do what you want and advise Steve where improvements might be made.

Hopefully some of this will improve with the current work being done on production planning bugs.

The problem is that when I set a default, either during the turn or during initial production planning, the computer undoes the default when I reach final production planning. I will see if I can send a saved game.

Maybe first try the new official patch that was released today.

There are so many possibilities I really need to see the saved game and reproduce the action you take to understand what happens. If you can attach a saved game to a post in this thread and provide instructions for me to follow, that would be a great help.

I'm currently working on the Production Planning issues.
