Lost another unit

Post by keeferon01 »

I lost the 1st Para a few days ago and now the 7th Aviation Rgt. has just completly vanished bit of a show stopper for me losing that one, messes up my Malaya plan. But the odd thing is the unit has gone but Im still recieving the aviation support at the base it vanished from.
Im using the latest beta 1.795.

Was the game started with the 1.795 beta or did you upgrade mid-game?

Ron, please send that save.

It is of the perfect type to attempt recovery as the unit is still located in the hex, just tagged with a 19999 arrival date.

opps sorry mr.frag, I d/l andrews latest map and started again. Just thought you tech guys have seen this before and didnt need another save, thats what I get for thinking. I am keeping a written log of every unit this game so even if I lose a small unit I will send a save.

Not about needing the save, was about trying to fix that save [;)]

Certain ones if caught early enough can be reversed ... yours sounded like one of those.

MR Frag

Has Matrix solved this Bug?

if they have, why can't we have a patch?

if not -do you need more saves?

really -it is the base assumption of playing any computer game -that units remain on the map!

Just started another game -and only 6 days in -already japans major opening operation totally derailed by paras vanishing[:(]

I don't believe he said he solved the bug. But rather that he could fix the specific save and have the unit reappear. He didn't guarantee it wouldn't disappear again. [;)]

I patched all the way to 1.795 and have moved several LCUs by air without any problems, until the other day, when the 5th Ind Div vanished from Mytkina(sp?) after air transport. I pretty sure I used the work around trick of stopping movement for one turn, but maybe I did it too soon (did it when all but there were about 3200 spt trps left). I also had my second encounter with a fragment of an LCU not finishing movement by air. This time it was the 23rd Chindit, and for whatever reason one 3in mortar and 12 spt trps won't load on transports (243 Sqdrn) to be transported to Mytkina and its parent unit.
