Trouble getting into Kiriwina
Posted: Mon Feb 09, 2004 6:13 am
In that same PBEM game with Alvaro I discovered a bug involving TFs trying to sail into Kiriwina.
The TF in question was a transport which I had re-rerouted to approach the port directly from west in order to avoid IJN subs blocking the normal route out of Gili Gili. This TF stayed in the hex directly west of Kiriwina for three straight turns.
I then re-routed it to hex south of Kiriwina, with its home port listed as Kiriwina. It still wouldn't enter.
Finally, I had another TF headed for Kiriwina so I ordered my recalcitrant TF to follow that one into port (with do-not-retire orders).
This finally worked.
