A most bizarre bug

Post by macgregor »

I'm playing a converted acow scenario 'Countdown to Infamy', and the weirdest thing happened. Upon launching carrier planes from my six Jap carriers, instead of one attack on the enemy stack which they had all been targeted, they apparently made individual attacks, on their own task forces!

If you replay that attack does it happen again?

Your planes attacked your OWN ships? Wow. 
 
Can't say it hasn't happened before though.

I will replay the attack again if I'm to continue with this scenario. I need time to recover. Could the scenario simply be so big that it's overloading the AI to the point of self-destructive behavior? I've seen that happen with humans.

I doubt it, but that'd be a question for James or Ralph.
