Replacement bug V3.101

[Mika Väliviita]

I did some research and found that the squad overflow only affects Soviets and only if the replacement level is set to higher than 85.

If it is 100, any division that has 196-222 squads and gets replacements, rolls over to 0-26, since they get 60 new squads. If it has 223 or more squads, it never gets replacements and does not roll over. And at 85, 85% of 223 is less than 196 so no squads are added.

Apparently Germans don't get replacements if they have over 195 squads and therefor don't overflow.

There doesn't seem to be a set ToE to reach, only a limit below which a unit gains a set number of replacements. But I guess this might be realistic.

F.ex. the NKVD divisions start with 162 squads and after one replacement are at 222, so they always roll over if at 100 replacement level. And obviously many units take losses that place them at bad numbers and the computer uses affected levels, playing against Soviet computer is a big mess. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">

No, the Germans suffer from the replacement overflow bug as well when doing special supply with a high replacement level, at least it can happen to satelite formations.

Well, I was only looking at regular replacements for German units...anyway it needs to be fixed.

Several other bugs I've seen, like same commander in two fronts, no commander at all in one and others I don't remember right now.

Someone said there were lots of issues listed with the Arnaud et al, could that be posted publically so we knew if we see some new bug or one already known?

What should we have replacements set to then as either German or Russian!

As German, I never noticed any replacement overflow except when doing special supply at 100% replacement level (and with Rumanian divisions at that), so as German I think you do not need to worry much. Mist gave the figure 75% as a safe replacement level playing the Russians.

In my game (german)the problem happen with all german motorized Division. I have Divisions with only 1 one! squad. <img src="frown.gif" border="0">
