[1.05b4] Independent and militia units assignment to SHQ

Post by Malevolence »

Independent and militia units are not assigned to their current zone's SHQ. This requires the player to individually select and assign each unit to the correct SHQ.

For example, when a new minor empire joins the player's regime, the player must choose the SHQ to assign the zones. The player must also assign each militia unit to the correct SHQ.

As an aside, there is no reason that all units shouldn't be automatically assigned to their current zone's SHQ. Failure to do so will significantly hamper the player's logistical network as resources attempt to move over long distances between SHQ zones.

For cross reference, see New Logistics Network - How to get it going?
ORIGINAL: Falke

Did you actually use Unit Admin to reassign every unit to the new SHQ?

The logical reason for the above state is:-

Inital OOB 1SHQ > Mil > Mont > Units

If you then change Mont to 3 SHQ, the OOB Display is then 3SHQ > Mil > Mont > Units BUT the units are still 1SHQ !

I checked in a game of mine with 2 SHQ. In the OOB the militia are shown under the SHQ to which the city belongs, the units themselves can belong to a different HQ ( I have some Militia far from home & therefore switched them to a different HQ+ when the 2nd was formed all units had to be reassigned)

Edit: For Independant units a city does get shown under different SHQ'S(multiple entries) based on the units SHQ assignment. I would guess this function is missing for Militia

Beyond making it simpler to assign militia to a new SHQ, I think it's a genuine 'bug' that the OOB shows one SHQ and the bottom unit tab shows another for the same unit. I spent hours on each of a bunch of days and spend a pile of in-game IP trying to figure out why my militia was starving!

I do have a .se1 file that I can send if that helps isolate the issue in any way.
