Status: offline 		Playing PBEM stock scen 15, 1.6 upgraded from 1.5. 2 groups in USAFFE broken down to squadrons. Changed HQ of all 6 breakdown squadrons to SWPac. Ran 2 turns in 1.6 and now all squadrons are back to USAFFE even though 1 group in in DEI and the other is in Australia.

Thanks

not clear from post, were the groups broken down under 1.5 or under 1.6?

Status: offline 		Split in 1.5, PPD the split groups in 1.5, updated to 1.6 including the OOB update by my Japanese opponent, never regrouped before I noticed that the split squadrons had all reverted back to USAAFE. Experimented with both groups the turn I noticed the reversion, and the recombined Groups also show USAAFE as the HQ.

is possible the HQs changed back while still playing v1.5.

I know that that sort of thing had happened to me in games played prior to v1.6...[IIRC, values not set/cleared properly with air group fragments]
Also, when split units are combined they remember/revert to their parent unit's original Hq.

Status: offline 		I've had fragments revert back to USAAF. I paid the PPs and moved the ready planes. Later, I went to move more to join the parent and the fragment had reverted back to restricted command. It wasn't that big of a deal to me.

Yep, that is the accepted risk of trying to convert parts of the unit over. There is only one location to store the HQ. Should a unit merge, it will loose the fact that it was converted and resume the original HQ.

If you don't want the risk, only change HQ's on a unit that is complete (no /1 etc and no /a etc parts around). Of course that means you will be paying more PP for the conversion, but it is a permanent change, not a borrowing ...

Status: offline 		It was a whole when I paid the PPs. I move the flyable aircraft and the remnant left behind reverted back to USAAF.
