There is a chance that an extra experience or prepare point per turn will be gained.

Looks like when I fixed a bug with unit preparing, I upset the experience when not at full preparedness.

Currently if it fails to gain the extra prepare point, it will try to gain an experience point if under the national experience level.

Don't forget that experience can also be gained in combat regardless of the preparedness level.

Michael, thanks for the ongoing excellent support.

One thing I have noticed which is not correct.
Units not on the map (ie as reinforcements) or are on ships (ie being transported), gain prep points and experience just as any LCUs on the map. This means that units could arrive on map at 100% prep'ed due to this.
If units need to arrive fully prepared, then it should set so in the editor.

Should there be some question as to the need for 100% prep before exp can increase??

I see prep as being the planning and training for a specific target. Its possible for the unit to be a pack of Boy Scouts/Girl Guides but having their planning down pat.

Exp should be gained mostly through combat, but also through the normal training that goes on when behind the lines. So when in Rest, and maybe Reserve (Not sharing a hex with the enemy), exp can increase to the national limits, when in Combat mode less so and in Strat mode zero.

Some incentive is needed to rotate LCU so that everything isnt on the front lines all of the time.

I have noticed exp increasing with less than 100% prep but only when morale reached 100%.

michael, I dont want my arriving LCU arriving prepped for a target set by the scenario devs. You want Americal in Caledonia, I have an urgent need in the Aleutians!

It would be nice to get a free 25-30-50??? prep points on the turn of arrival

If units arrive on map, there prep is for the target set. If no target set, they basically lose the prep points when you change target upon arrival.

There's bug here then- if you get a unit on map that's part of a larger unit- e.g. one regiment of a marine division- you can use the unit organisation button to pull up the other regiments. You can then change the location that those units are prepping for.

Should probably be changed to prevent this. (I thought it was WAD)
