Units disappear after Airlift

Post by vonSchnitter »

Gentlemen,

I had noticed before, a phenomenon of disappering units after a complete relocation by airlift.

In scenario 4:

It has happened with aviation eng. units and now with an infantry-unit.
This does not happen, when a portion of the unit moves by land or is transported by ship.

I have attached two game-saves:

http://ww2airfronts.org/upload/witp008.pws

check for the infantry unit transporting from PM to Buna.

In the second file it does not show up as an icon on the map. In the base window it is not listed under troops, however, it says xxxx troops present, with support req. and avail, but no supplies req.

Hope you can check it and fix it

Cheers

I've encountered a similar or possible extension to this problem when dividing units or loading (incorrectly) followed by immediate unloading. In each case the icon for the units disappeared from the line list of LCUs at the base (bottom of screen). At first I thought they were gone completely, but I found them listed in the full screen table of LCUs as three new regiments (replacing the division). They had just been left off the line list.

This would happen to me all the time in UV. When I asked about it I was told to have sufficient transport available to transport all at once or the computer will get confused and remove the unit. When it would happen in UV, the unit would reappear a few days later in force at its orginal base.
