Bought back troops disperse after arrival

Hello,

in my new game (Scen 2) i noticed that sometimes destroyed troops you bought back, automaticly disperse at the end of the arrival turn (disperse happends before supply distribution or a bug in supply distribution?). Happend two times now (in Aden and Auckland) for me, but it doesn't happens always. Reloading the pre-turn save and running the turn again always "saved" the units.

I can add a savegame for the NZ engineer unit at Auckland when back at home (if needed).

Edit:
I should add that i play with the latest Beta :)

Did the units have withdrawal date that had passed?

I had the same thing just happen to my newly bought back Marine Division at San Fran. The "C" part Dispersed last turn and didn't show up in the reinforcement list. I had to recombine A & B and then divide into three again. I send the last two turns to Michael.

I'm pretty sure that a long while ago Michael made it so that units which have a withdraw date can not be bought back.

Then NZ engineer unit from Singers had no withdraw date. I only noticed this it because the combat reporter tells you about dispersed(?) forces. It may had happend with some more base forces already. I guess i check my destroyed engineer units again, when back home.

Looks like a bug then.

I think it is about the 'size' of the unit being rebuilt. Normally units of size '0' will disband. Maybe the rebuilt unit has only a support device or something of little value that is driving this.
Did the unit only have a support device in it? That is usually the default device if nothing else is rebuilt in the unit.
