Aircraft reverting to Rest bug?

[jarraya]

I think I found a bug.
When playing a game I started my turn by setting all my fighters to Air Superiority. I then started moving my units and every single move was met by an attack. I couldn't even move one hex without getting attacked, and some of my units got evaporated before they got 3 hexes away. It was very frustrating. So I went to check the air report and found that the enemy had total air superiority - 10 to my 0, and 58% interdiction. Surely this was wrong! So I checked the aircraft again and found that for some reason every single aircraft was on REST! I double checked to make sure the Air Assistant was off, and it was.

This happened on two turns now. There is definitely something wrong, but I'm not sure what. I think this could be a game bug.

Any help?

That happens so that your planes don't keep flying when getting beaten up.

I don't know what scenario you are playing but in some scenarios you shouldn't fly all your planes every turn, you should keep some resting out of harms way. This way you can rotate good units in, those needing rest out.

Thanks for the info. The problem I have is ALL my planes go to rest. No matter what I do. So the enemy ends up having total dominance and getting 54% interdiction, meaning I can't move. I'm better off letting my guys fly and try to at least shoot some of his planes down.

Air superiority is established at the preturn phase. Your air superiority will calculated at the next player turn phase.

I'm wondering why you guys are still missing his point. His aircraft units are being set to "rest" by the game engine and he doesn't know why that is happening, and I don't either. This may be a scenario bug or a game engine bug, I'm not sure which but I'm thinking if it were me I'd report it as a bug and let it get investigated at the very least. I'd post a saved game file in the Tech Help section and explain what's happening and let somebody look into it.
