Here's how the air war is going right now. It's looking better all the time.

Here's the front line now:

Just started on turn 55 and all the Finn units are coming up with this message. Another bug?

ALL of the Finn units give that message? Is there some kind of equipment in the unit that would cause
that message, some fixed guns of some kind. Otherwise I'm guessing it's a bug. You may have to
disband all of them. LOL. Sorry that just slipped out of my mouth. Um.......What happened on T55
that caused that? We may have to abandon this game if you can't find a workaround or something.

[fogger]

Do not know why it happened on turn 55, has not happened in any previous turn. Will look into it. Each Finn's Regt has a spare equipment slot and when I move the unit the equipment in that slot is lost.

PS
In 2 wars no able body officer from my regiment ever surrendered and I do not feel like shooting myself in the foot just yet.

[fogger]

Help (I do not want to have to shoot myself in the foot)
The above problem (abandon all fixed equipment) is now in all Italian, Hungarian, Rumanian units that have the last slot on the unit report as “Spare equipment”. It only occurred this turn (55). In the previous 54 turns this has not happened. I have now reloaded a number of previous “middle of the turned saved game” and reloaded a number of previous turn files (a couple of 2X and 3X) that Larry sent me. The problem is now appearing in all of these turns. This is what I can not understand. I have shut down the computer and reloaded the previous files and the problem still exists. If it was an event error then by reloading earlier games from the twenty X and thirty X then the error should not happen.

I am at a loss. Any ideas? Is this a possible bug in 3.6.0.88?

If only there was someone we could turn to to fix this problem. Someone like Ralph.

[larryfulkerson]

Well dear Reader: It looks like we're at an impass and will have to abandon this game. Too bad too because
I was just about to defeat John soundly.

Can you post a screenshot of a Unit Report for one of the problem units?

And, what scenario is this?

Also, I assume you would tell us if you were getting a "Playing with the wrong equipment file" message, right?

[fogger]

Hi Bob,
I have just sent you a PM and yes I was getting that message but it was my understanding that this is one of the bugs in 3.6.0.88

I'm not aware of any such bug. Are you saying that you have always gotten that message with this scenario? If so, how can you know you ever had the correct equipment file?

I'd still like to see a screen shot.

Edit: Note that the problem you're having is just what you would see if you were using the wrong equipment file.

[larryfulkerson]

Probably off topic but still: I've always gotten the wrong equipment file message but it always went to the PBEM file anyway for some reason. Loaded the file
when it should have crashed to desktop like the other exe's.

EDIT: And I'm using 3.6.0.88 just like John Fogger

[fogger]

Screen shot attached. The wrong equipment file has always come up. When I was testing FITE2 I was advised not to worry about it.

[larryfulkerson]

I'd like to see the very bottom of the list of your inventory so I can tell if there are spare equipment slots there.

[fogger]

equipment list attached

[larryfulkerson]

I'm not sure but I surmise that your image above proves convincingly that you're using the wrong equipment file.
