Version 2.7.1.

After port attack game crashes when carrier planes try to land on carriers. I tested landing LND first, CVP first, landing CVP to both CVs.

AAR: tm.asp?m=4333300&mpage=10

Instructions to recreate problem:
No inteception
No subs
10 for non-phasing side
2 for phasing side
2x decrease AA fire (to NE)
increase damage
D on CA (roll 1)
D on BB Schleswig-Holstein (8)
A on other BB (2)

Try to land CVP on either CV, game crashes.

When I try to do the port attack, I get a Mad Except during AA fire and I can't pass this phase...

Send to Steve.

I need load from autosave and test if I can recreate this starting before port attack phase.

Is it possible, that saving game to this point causes problem? I saved, quit and continued next day.

Here is save file before port strike. Everything goes smooth. Maybe saving game at that point caused error?

I noticed in your OP that one of your CVP existed in two places, Keil and the North Sea. I suspect that when trying to land your CVP after the attack, the program gets confused as it sees the same unit in the North Sea.

I've reproduced this condition, it happens when saving the game AFTER allocating the CVP's to the target hex, but before the combat has been resolved.

Good job [&o]

That's also the reason why I got that Mad Except. A plane cannot be in two places at once...
