Disappearing AC in Big B 1.4

Post by racndoc »

Scenario 193, Big B 1.4. Dec. 28th, 1941


Moved Allied 7th BG to Townsville, broke it down into 3 groups , moved 1 group to Charter Towers, converted to LB-30s and then flew them to Darwin as they repaired. I wasnt paying real close attention as I transferred them but I noticed that some squadrons were short AC when they arrived in Darwin so I added replacement AC and pilots. When I finally had transferred all of 7th BG out of Townsville and Charter Towers, I had only a total of 31 LB-30s in Darwin, even with replacements.

I checked the AC Losses screen and it shows 2 LB-30s lost to Ops. I checked the AC replacement screen and it shows that ALL 58 LB-30s had been used.

Then I checked the squadrons at Darwin more closely and saw that the all the pilots had survived except for one but 27 LB-30s were missing.

The breakdown of the squadrons at Darwin is as follows:

7th BGA: 9 AC, 16 pilots
7th BGB: 15 AC, 24 pilots
7th BGC: 7 AC, 17 pilots

Has anyone seen this before?

Hello,

Wish I could help, but I don't think this is mod related - nor have I really seen this before.
Hopefully the mods will have something to say.

Yes - bug has been reported - not sure where it is on the fix list, though.

Sorry, I know I've been ranting a lot about this bug but after two and a half years I have had to put my PBEM on dead slow in the vain hope this bug might be fixed in the near future. It would be nice if someone could at least let us know that it will be in the next patch.
