Larry Smith -> Wimpy computer purchasing (12/17/2001 7:14:00 AM)

I have noticed that on occassion, the computer purchases considerably less than it should. I have a force that it now, with upgraded, nearing the 10k mark {I have 2 companies of armour, one of infantry, one battery each of SPH, SPMtr, SPG, SPATG}-so, its big. Usually, the computer's force screen {during the end report}, is at least four pages long. Sometimes, however, it buys a mere company sized force to hit my {much} reinforced battalion. Even the computer should know that the attack to defense ratio has to be 3-1 for success. And the Germans were more proficient throughout than their enemies were, skewing the ratio in their favour {less-so towards the end}. I have the purchase points set to XXX, thinking that the computer would match me. Recently, I did the British purchase myself, and for an assault, they had 60k+ to use! I also noted that, after the batte, my saved-up points for upgrades {at 80k+} was now only 4k+! I think the computer used my points to purchase. Wierd! Any thoughts on this, or should I just stop putting egg-nog in my coffee in place of creamer.

That Happens when you roll over the game engine limits on points ... you might even see yourself at some point getting negative values of rebuild points if you accumilate to many.. and other weird numerical things .. just a limit of the game engine as much as the limit to the number of units or formations you can buy .

Yep..For example the number of casualties I had made during my campaign turned negative at around 32k. Well maybe my doctors are better at curing dead russians than my own soldiers Mannerheim
