In what case there is a replacement returned ?

If there are troops in a unit that shouldn't be there OR if a HQ has to much staff.

It could be interesting to consider a replacement returned a small % of destroyed units (staff and infantry)!

I've run into a problem where infantry are being put into my fighter unit. I have checked the troopeditor and it shows my fighter unit having the correct replacements not infantry. Also my tank units are doing the same, instead of putting tanks in newly created units I'm having cavalry and infantry put in, does this happen when you do not have enough of one item. My tank unit should have tanks and armored cars nothing else.

also when I click on the replacements returned box, it shows that no replacements have been returned

Hi lion,

Could you send me your scenario file (or dczip) to vic@xs4all.nl ?

I'll take a look.

Maybe a bug, maybe something you misunderstood. Only one way to find out

sure thing, thanks

Lion,

Could you also send your troop file libraries plz?

Vic

sure thing, thanks

Hi Lion,

Reloading the TroopType libraries fixes the issue with the replacement types.

If you enable the advanced editor you can see the reinfType of Polish/Lit infantry being restored.

However I wonder what happened for it to get corrupted...

Maybe you deleted some reinf.types in the troopType library during your design and reloaded the troopType lib?

Best wishes,

Thanks Vic. I have started another playtest and so far this time the issue is not occurring, but now I have a new issue were the Polish destroyers are not showing up for me to place on the map during editing and when I have them come in as a reinforcement, and place them in Danzig they attack the city causing damage and the destroyers and transports are themselves destroyed.

I checked the troop list and history and these new items are showing up, but when I go to unit and try and place them on the map they are not there. Now I had no issues with the Entente destroyers. I have uploaded both the updated Polish and History libraries three times and still same result

Remember how i told you not to name two troop types the same? Well this is what happens when you don't know for sure which is which. What you have done is probably selecting the Entente Destroyers when choosing what kind of reinforcement that should show up, rather than the polish one. Since they are named the same, you had no way of distinguishing them...

Sounds to me like ernie is probably right. If not let me know.

best wishes,
Vic
