Aware of this bug which can hang around until Japan DOW NEI. Only needs an exchange of saves and magically Mukden becomes the destination of choice!

This is caused due to the fact that MWIF will recalculate everything when you reload the game on another computer, including production planning. Very annoying, indeed...
