Backspace key changes AI moves

In my new game I was plotting some early moves and used the backspace key to undo all of them. I hit it an extra time or two and noticed the text on the screen bottom was stating I had undone AI moves.

I'm playing the Union and it showed confederate moves being taken back.

Not sure if this is repeatable all the time yet as I came here to report it. I’ll test in some new turns to see if it happens all the time and report back later.

Imagine if this works for PBEM opponents moves as well. YIKES! I can hear the screaming already.

It's repeatable. I loaded my save game and tried it and nothing happened. However after I execute a turn it happened. I plotted a move and then hit backspace and sure enough I saw confederate moves being removed.

I tried to test this also, but nothing happened.
How is it possible we undo AI moves? When does the AI plot moves? Thought it was after End Turn, not during our turn.

I believe orders are not actually being removed, that it's just a message problem.  Still it's annoying and should be fixed.

I seem to recall experiencing this on COG - not sure when/if it was resolved?

Yes, I've yet to be able to change a move. But it does appear you can see what the moves are. Nice intel. [:)]
