Problems with FT's and Pick Up Unit Orders

I'm playing as Japan in 2.30. Currently, I'm trying to put together several Fast Transport TF's of six ships each -- mix of DD's, CL's, and CA's in most cases -- and then clicking on the Load Only Troops icon for each one and then the Pick Up Unit icon. Then for each TF I select a different ground unit but all at the same base.

Some of the TF's get their orders correct and they show no load with the words Pick Up (I think) under that. Others, however, are messed up. They LOAD ground units in Rabul instead and don't show the Pick Up words.

What gives? It does'nt always happen but about half the time and there does'nt seem to be a pattern to it. One TF for a unit will mess up, for example, and a second try will take the order correctly.

Hi Soulblazer!

Do you have any saves that will reproduce what you are describing? (you said that there were no pattern but IF you find something please send) Would like to have a look.

I'll look for it myself also.

If so send with instructions to

dpalb02@student.vxu.se

Cheers
Dan

Okay, turn sent. I may need to send another one in a few turns later once more ships return to port.

Yes, I did get the email, thanks. BTW if you do get more saves please feel free to send them directly to me (you don't have to ask if I'd like them on the forum I mean)...I asume you have the email adress by now.

Cheers
Dan
