My PBEM opponent is trying very hard to take Canton Island from me. We have been fighting on the island for a few days. I have 5 total units on the island, 3 had 100 prep. The other 2 were 6 and 0. When I received the last turn back from my opponent all of my units now have a prep of 0. Does prep dissappear if you are low on supply or for any reason other than starting to prep for another location ? I had considered maybe I had hit set all to the unit that wasn't prepping for Canton, but had I done that all would be now prepping for Christmas and the one would still be at 100 for that prep setting. I will post the save of the turn I sent and the one I just received.

Not sure why.

I ran the turn myself and the prepare values didn't change.

Only places I can see it getting set to 0 are:
Marching to a destination
Setting all to an objective
Possible combining of fragments of low value so averaging gets close to zero.

As I said, I ran the turn and it didn't go down.

I have emailed my opponent and asked them to rerun the last turn I had sent. Hopefully it will not happen again.

Marching to a destination

Michael, could you clarify this? Why would marching to a destination reset prep points?

My Opponent was gracious enough to rerun the turn and they were not affected this time. Thanks for checking..

Got tricked.

There is a MarchToTarget() function, but nothing calls it anymore.

It seems to have been used by the old AI.
