Soviet officer library is FUBAR

Post by elmo3 »

As you can see in the screenshot my Soviet officer library is messed up. I have two Petrov's with first names A. and B. but you can see that there is a third Petrov with no first name. There are only two entries in the library. The B. Petrov is further down the list but it would not scroll to show all three in one pic. Also note that there are two Korobkov's in the officer pool but there is only one entry for him in the library. I don't see any similar problems with my German officer library.

Will email you the scenario and officer library shortly.

Here is another screenshot that shows A. Petrov and Petrov with the same id number. B. Petrov is further down the list and has a different id number. It also shows Korobkov in twice with the same id number.

If you delete an officer and remake him at the bottom of the file does that mess up all the officers? I did that to try and fix a similar problem with Lukin being in the officer pool twice.

Yes ID's are crucial for the game.

But I found a bug related to this. Where officers did not get updated correctly and doubles could get generated.

I'll be posting a new hotfix very soon.

You can repair your scenario by using the debug tab in the Simple Editor.

And it should not occur again when using v0.78f and onwards.

Thanks for spotting this and helping me fix it!

best,
