CV operations points bug
Posted: Wed Mar 30, 2005 9:26 pm
Dear All,
I had this post in bugs and fixes above but only had one reply which unfortunately didn't solve the problem, thought I would try again!
When transferring Dauntless dive bombers to carriers, a new Havoc unit appears which has no aircraft or pilots but cannot be transferred to another base or ship. This seems to mean that the number of groups which can be carried on a CV is then limited by this phantom squadron. Also at the same time this happened all my CVs in a TF went to zero operations points and lose them all immediately they put to sea. I have tried disbanding the TF, creating again and refueling, but they go back to zero again. I have also tried landing the affected units on a base and recombing on ship, but that doesn't seem to solve it. Also I have F4F squadrons which won't hold the 36 aircraft and go to 20 aircraft and the rest go to reserve, even when on land bases with more than enough air support. The worst bug is the op points one, this is in a PBEM game so effectively means I may have no carrier force if it continues!
Can anyone help, I am playing version 2.30 and seem to be getting bug after bug, including TFs staying on patrol when I know I have put them on retirement. If this carries on I will have to abandon the game!
Mike
