Hi... occasionally when I have a fully supplied ship or transport that I want to Naval Cruise, I found that both methods to enable the mode won't work (selecting the unit itself or using the lower tool bar). This is a rare occurrence but it's happened in nearly every SC-3 game I have played.

Recently was in a situation that was critical to get a transport with heavy tanks to a destination asap.
Had the glitch. Was stymied. But after thought...I deselected that transport, selected another unit far away loafing on a Pacific island, then deselected it and went back to the transport. Viola I was able to Naval Cruise that transport.

Was recording the event while trying a work around. It won't be public for sometime but in the future will put a link on this thread so it can be viewed. Not sure if this always will work but decided to share this possible solution to this vexing problem. I have seen other YTbers run into this glitch occasionally...and heard about it from other folks I was playing in the past also.

I often find that I can't put a unit on naval cruise, even if it meets all the criteria to do so. I find that if I save my turn, log out and then log back in, the unit is then able to cruise. It's not a big hassle, but it is an odd glitch in the game system. This is true for SC WW1 as well.

Thanks guys and if you ever come across this again where it is repeatable, please let me know.
