Not sure what to make of this. I bombed the port at Odessa several times, than noticed that the little city logo thingy in the upper right corner of the game screen was showing Odessa and 999%. However when I looked at the port info by clicking on the city name in the upper right of the game screen it was showing port damage as Zero. Just wondering what's up with the 999%?

Game version is 1.06.05

Do you have a save of the turn where this happens with some details on what you did so I can try to replicate it?

Thanks elmo. However I think I figured out what the 999% thingy is. It looked weird cause' I'm playing Russians and was fixated upon bombing effects on the port facility in Axis controlled Odessa. I just got the next turn file for this particular PBEM, and I again saw the 999% shown for Odessa. I'm thinking WTF. I got to clicking on various Axis Occupied and Soviet Controled Cities on the map and slapped my forehead -- the 999% thingy is the Axis garrison level for Odessa. It never occured to me that the Soviet side of the game would actually be able to see the Axis city garrison level. Silly me...sorry to have troubled you. ;o)

Which can be called an issue.

Lee, as far as I can tell this is always the case. A Soviet player can always see the garrision percentage for cities occupied by German units. This isn't so much a bug, as it is something that slipped through the Fog of War rules (with FOW on you really shouldn't see the enemy garrison levels). You can list that as a bug though on the bug list.
