SiTheSly -> Missing A6M3 in Lemurs Scenario 26 (8/18/2004 8:16:08 PM)

I'm paying Lemurs Scen 26 as the Japanese.

It's now August 1942 and I'm building 200 A6M3 a month.

I've built a total of 860 so far and upgraded about 150 A6M2

The trouble is that I've 7 aircraft in the pool 850 have been used and a total of 1 has been destroyed.

So I have about 600+ which for the life of me I have no idea where they are.

It seems that as soon as I get to about 30 in the pool they just move to the used total but vanish from the game.

At first I thought it might be taking them for new squadrons but it has got to the point where even this is far fetched.

It hasn't happened with any other plane.

Anybody have any idea what is going on?

As i didn't really do anything with the A6m2 or m3 it is probably not my scenario.

Didn't you change the upgrade path? I thought M2s went to M3s in your scen?

It's the one from Spooky's web site

by Michael Johnson (Lemurs) - now compatible with the 1.21 WITP patch !

It's a zipped file which fits in the Scen 26 spot

In the readme it says the following

quote:

A6M2's now upgrade to A6M3's. There was NO reason for them not to upgrade. The A6M2 was removed from front line service in October '42.
The A6M3 is still the model 32. More or less. After a bit of thought i did not want to upgrade Japans Zeroes any more than they already are. The A6m3-22 gained additional range by being even more flammable, thus a lower durability. If you want long range Zeroes keep building A6M2's.


This is the one I'm talking about - BTW you can't keep building the M2 as it auto converts unless there is a way to stop this happening I don't know about.

SiTheSly,

The missing replacement A6M3 may be being used to fill out or upgrading reinforcement air groups. Can you check to see if this is happening? There should be some A6M2 and A5M4 air groups in the reinforcements list.

Some of them are:

A5M4
F2/1st Daitai

A6M2
F2/Kanoya Daitai
F2/Genzan Daitai
F1/331st Hikotai
F1/256th Daitai

Yeah, it will autoupgrade as historical now.

No it's not, that's what I thought at first or rather should I say hoped, since it doesn't happen for any other aircraft why should it happen to A6M3?

As you can see from the pool below that I have used over 900 of them but they are simply not in the game.

It is very bizarre and I haven't seen anyone else have this problem.

So I guess my question is has anyone played this scenario to say June 1942 as the Japanese and not had any problems with the A6M3?

BTW I'm enjoying the scenario and prefer it to the usual upgrade paths, if no one else has this problem then I must have somehow triggered this.

The only thing i can ask is how many A6m3's are in service? It seems a bit high. You must have converted a lot to get to over 200 production.

Mike


120 with land based squadrons
235 with carrier squadrons

I converted about 50 Ki51 to A6M3 there were 100 A6M2 which were auto converted and about 60 A6M3 which were already in r&d.

It was going fine until I converted the carrier groups and now when ever the pool gets to over 25 it takes a squadron's worth and lists them as used, decreaseing the pool.

However they are not to be found in any of my squadrons, my toatl losses of A6M3 are about 5 so it's not a case of using them for replacements.

I figure it must be an unusual bug since no one else has it and all my other planes in all the other games have been fine.

It makes playing the Japanese more interesting without any zeros though.

Oh goody, this will be fun to track down....
