DeepSix -> Missing LCUs (3/20/2005 7:06:46 AM)

As the AI invaded Borneo, I began pulling back Dutch units, concentrating them at Balikpapan. Finally, as the AI landed there, I set up a transport TF with approx. 24 APs and AKs -- more than enough to ferry out the 1000 or so troops left at the base. But when the TF sailed, it left a remnant of 168 total troops, even though most of the ships were less than 10% loaded. I wondered about this, but chalked it up to suppression/trying to load an LCU under duress.
When the AI attacked, the fragment retreated into Samarinda. I ordered the TF to bravely/foolishly do an about-face and head back to Samarinda to try to pick that fragment up. It docked, I gave it the load order and selected the unit. On the next turn, though, the TF left Samarinda, apparently without loading anybody. Briefly, a green LCU icon appeared on the map in the Samarinda hex. I clicked to open it and find out how many troops were still left -- 168 again.
But when I closed that info screen, the icon disappeared, and now the real puzzle is in the pic below -- the base info screen says there are 595 troops there (when there weren't that many in the fragment to begin with) and nothing shows up -- no LCU icon on the map, no LCU icon in the base summary tray at the bottom.... what's up with this?
