Same here. Lost the entire 18th UK without having ever moved it (see my other thread).




Brady -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 9:03:24 AM)


Pre Patch I lost 2 HQ's entirly disapeard, both in important locations, post patch I lost a entire Airfield Engine unit, also in a forward area.

2 days ago I started a tread "where did my wake invasion force go", because my wake invasion force disapeared in my 1.5 started game. But got NO reply from anny moderator...........

Well, in my "18th UK deserted" thread MikeM took a look at my database and deduced that the unit I was missing has not arrived yet. At the same time, it doesnt show on the reinforcements screen and it listed somewhere as "destroyed" at an "undefined" location. On top of all else, I could swear that I saw it arrive, but my memory is inadmissable in court so I'm mum on that count. So, unless anyone can make sense of this, your guesses are as good as mine.

Honestly guys? While I don't pretend to know programming or database work in general, I suspect that 1.6 (if it happens) may simply be a long effort to clean up the data bases in the game. By in large the game works extremely well from my observations over the last 9 months or so. The only fly in that statement seems to be the vanishing units (though I've not seen any dissappear yet for me). Once that's fixed, I think we'll probably be done with patches and can go on with our merry gaming...

I mean anyone know Excel? It took me 6 weeks to figure out that as I added and deleted lines (AA to BB to DD), etc on a spreadsheet database that sometimes the CC line wasn't deleted... It got "folded behind" the others and was still there. Just invisible.

I doubt this problem is something that simple, but it might be. Still, we'll have to wait and see.

Back to the game... [8D]




Grotius -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 5:11:06 PM)

Did these disappearances take place in new games under 1.5, or in games started under 1.4 and upgraded to 1.5?




wild_Willie2 -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 5:14:08 PM)

In my case turn, a unit disapiered in turn 2 of a 1.5 started game, did a complete WITP reinstall after that just to be sure (but unable to play since, due to defect video card)




Brady -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 5:35:16 PM)


Mine occured in a game that started in 1.4 and was contuned after, 1.5. I have had other disapearances in other games, but this was was mentioned specificaly since it had disapearances post patch.





jwilkerson -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 7:25:50 PM)

Well it should be easy enough to start up a new game and check the reinforcement track and see when 18UK is scehduled to arrive ... if the is immediate ( 1-2 days ) then you have evidence supporting your memory ... if it is much farther down .. then oops ... time to run Chkmem !





2Stepper -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/1/2005 11:50:00 PM)

Well, I for one have waited a long time for a PBEM game simply because I knew this game would go through a lot of revision in its first few months. Now that we're down to the wire for patches I've started my first... So for me this database error hasn't been an issue because all my games have been clean for that version.

It may simply be a case that one version isn't compatible with the next and you have to begin again...






madmickey -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/2/2005 1:08:09 AM)

One way of preventing disappearing units is to load a very small part of the unit in a SS/AVD and leave that part at a rear base.




Onime No Kyo -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/2/2005 3:23:12 AM)

I'd just prefer if it worked right to begin with.




Halsey -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/2/2005 4:47:16 AM)

I'm working on it![:D]

Air transporting a couple of units right now.[;)]




scott64 -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/2/2005 8:23:01 AM)

I have planes waiting in SF while Lexington gets repaired. I swore I had 24 F4Fs of which 12 each were being repaired and ready to fly, I kept getting a message that they were being combined, but I had only 12 still repaired. I even looked and saw that Lexington did not take any of them. She has 0 of that type with the same unit number. Last time I looked I had 12 repaired planes with 10 damaged. Where did the other 2 planes go? [&:] Gemlins eating them or something? [:-][X(][8|]




hithere -> RE: Anyone have a Unit Dispaear on them yet post Patch? (5/2/2005 11:15:50 AM)

does the airgroup have a slash/number behind them? if the Lexington was damaged too bad, the airgroup could have flown to another carrier and only the damaged ones stayed on the Lady Lex. then they are trying to combine from there. i go to the airgroup listings when something like this happens to see were the unit is spread out at. esp if i am transporting bombers over long distances and "lose" some planes

BTW, were you using "Variable" reinforcements?
