I thought I was going crazy! I played the tutorial about six times and could never find the Russian convoy no matter how loud or stealthy I was in my Los Angeles class attack submarine. So I played it in the editor and went to God mode and noticed that the convoy never moves.

This is the version that's in the latest scenario pack.

I'm running 936.7 beta

OK I have opened it up in the editor and I think I fixed the problem. It seems that you have to go into the editor and uncheck the "group lead can slow down (group reform)" box for the convoy to start to move.

Not sure how no one else spotted this bug before. I guess maybe an updated beta broke the system?

I'm just not sure how to save the scenario with the fix in it because I've never use the editor before

Hi, thanks for looking into this.

Maybe contact the author, Mgellis?

Ok sent him a P.M.

I've noticed this before with my own formations.
If that box is checked at start of simulation they seem to not move.

Sounds like a bug that the original reporter never created a test save for. I'll see if I can whip up a test scenario for that.

Edit - sent up the test scenario to the linked Tech Forum post.

Yes just open uncle Mark's #4 and watch the convoy in god mode. With the box checked they will circle around close to the leader but never really go anywhere. When you uncheck the box they proceed as they should.
