Disappearing Heavy Industry Points

[bigrock]

As the Japanese player, it appears to be that on the 1st of each month a large number of Heavy Industry points just disappear. (In the vicinity of 50,000 of them in late 1943). Can anyone tell me where they are going???

All of your pilots in training require 5 HI points each month.

Thanks. That accounts for part of it. I have about 6000 pilots in training == 30,000 HI, but on the 1st of last month the HI point total reduced by close to 60,000. The rest of the month they are stable or very slightly increasing. Is there anything else apart from pilot training???

In training or in pool ?

There are other factors, but pilot training is the only requirement on the first of the month ... Get Tracker [;)]

OK. Here are the facts.

Pilots in pool: 5426
Pilots in training: 12500 (sum of the 4 quarterly training columns)

HI Points subtracted in 1st. - 57,700

... which looks OK if we are counting the pilots in training.

The only problem is, is that TRACKER seems to be using the pilots in pool number and estimating 27,150 HI points at the end of the month - which is why I am confused (or just crazy!)

Tracker 1.4 had it wrong ... get 1.5
