Strange "Load Troops" / "Load Troops Only" problem (bug?)...

Post by Apollo11 »

Hi all,

Have you guys ever noticed that some TF slot numbers are "specific" regarding
"Load Troops" / "Load Troops Only" ?


What I mean is that if I create, let's say, TF4 with 10 APs as "Transport" TF
I only have "Load Troops Only" available with "Load Troops" greyed out.

Strange...

Then I disband this TF4 (I have no use for it if I can't load supplies to it)
and create dummy TF4 and put, let's say, 1 PC into it (i.e. this is just to
fill that TF slot).

The next available TF slot is 20 and I put all _SAME_ ships as before into
this "Transport" TF and now I have both "Load Troops" available together
with "Load Troops Only".

Weird...


Anyone ever saw this happening?


NOTE: I was playing as Japanese in scenario #19 PBEM.

Yes, I've had that happen but I didn't know it was tied to the TF number. Good to know.

Hi all,

Even more stranger stuff...

Sometimes I load one unit and instead of that unit some "ghost" unit is
indicated as being loaded ("ghost" because that unit is not near the place
where I am doing the loading).

Perhaps UV game engine "remembers" that some TF transferred some unit(s) and
this gets "stuck" to specific TF slot number even after TF is disbanded...


Anyone ever seen similar things?

I frequently have the "Load Troops" line greyed out.

Just click the "Unload Cargo/Troops" button and the "Load Troops" line will turn on.

This can help only in some very specific situations but mostly
it won't do much good... it seems that some kind of TF slot
"remembrance" exists in UV...
