Merging units problem/ or not - 6/17/2008 9:18:01 AM

Status: offline 		I have 3 infantry units being repaired in Jackson MS. I read section 11.6 of the manual and clicked (right and left-clicked) on the infantry icon and the number 3 below it. I don't get the message asking if I want to merge or disband. I get nothing. I also have 3 in Meridian MS and same situation.

I even tried the same on the MS production screen, where 6 infantry units were being repaired. Same results, or lack thereof.

I would greatly appreciate any insight.
<edit>
I shouldn't play so late at night. I have the computer managing my production and that likely precludes me from handling production in any way.

A neat option would be to have the AI manage production, but to allow the player to muck around as well.

Status: offline 		I tried switching off the AI for production, and then combining units, but it didn't work. I didn't bother to check, but maybe the CSA AI is scripted to combine units already?

I ended up victorious, so it was no more than a minor handicap.

Status: offline 		You've got to have at least two or more (always an even number) infantry units in a factory, then right click on them and they will dissapear, one is placed on the map the other you lose but recover its puplation cost. I only merge units when I don't have enough population and need the infantry badly otherwise I put the production on hold for the next turn when I'd have more population.
