Wrong side announced when breaking down corps

When you want to break down a russian corps into 2 divisions, if I understand the command bar correctly, in this case (both screens same moment) it's offering to Split a German unit, buit it's the URSS the ones it's really letting me Split. I guess but I am not sure the same can occur in the USSR stage...

You'll see it better in this one, and I just checked and in the previous subphase (supposed to have been the AXIS according to the player switch messages) you couldn't Split axis units:

Ahhh, finally a way to weaken the Russian Bear, no?

Hahaha, no. This is an option (splitting) and strange as it may seem it's created to allow stronger stackings (not 2 corps but 2 corps + div) among other possibilities... So, it can be a good trade for the russian bear.

I assume that you are playing a Head-to-head game. The problem appears to be that the side should have switched back to the USSR once the program determined that Germany had no units to break down. That's obviously a bug.

The new update (1.0.2), which should be available shortly, fixes some bugs in Breakdown for NetPlay. I checked breaking down units during the Setup and Breakdown phases for solitaire play, with the Unlimited Breakdown optional rule both ON and Off, but I didn't look into Head-to-head play (sigh).

I am almost sure I am. I have been playing solitaire and hotseat, and I am almost sure this was hotseat.

Just one thing, in the previous subphase, when I should have been able to split German units, I wasn't. Or at least not the ones I tried to, dunno if there was any rule that I should have considered but they were in supply,that's for sure. So, this could be another Little bug.
