Dear all

I play with version 1.06.1108r9 with mod Dababes -C with extended map with a 2 days turn. In my PBEM game, the Langley was sunk the 11 decmeber 1941.

"Allied Ships
AV Langley, Torpedo hits 2, and is sunk"

And confirmed sunk in the operations reports file

"Loss of AV Langley on Dec 11, 1941 is admitted"

But when I loaded the 13 december turn (2 day turns), the Langley is still there undamaged in a fleet...

I can't seem to get to happen (don't have the required files for the scenario). None of the mentioned ships are involved in combat on 15/16th to get reported as 'sunk'.
The xAK wasn't mentioned in the combat report in my replayed turn or the combat report from the save even though Ops reported it sunk on 16Dec.

If the Langley was involved in combat and was hit, it should at least have some damage. And there is none.
When you get the 'admitted loss', the other player should also get a 'reported sunk' message in their ops report.

The message is driven off a value in the ship's info, which is set when it is sunk. That value is not set in the save.
I can't explain it unless some sort of localised data corruption is happening when the turn is resolved.

PS
It is possible some of the beta patches may have indirectly addressed this as that is all I can test against.
