I am playing Japanese campaign, currently in Java (taking Batavia) scenario. I was doing very well, but after I loaded a save, I noticed I am missing 75% of my units. They are just not there at all. Is there anything I can do about it? Both autosave and end turn autosave had the same corruption in them.

Attached is the save game file, if it is of any help in bug-hunting.

Thanks for the save, we're looking into this. Will get back to you when I have something more useful to say!

I've managed to fix your savegame, but I wonder how the problem occured. When loading the save it tried to create two ground units on the same hex, which causes a failure. In the screenshot below - taken after I "hacked" the savegame - the Dutch unit was actualy sharing the city hex with your infantry.

Any idea how this happened? Was your unit ambushed trying to move to or through this hex?

The fixed savegame is available here:

Hopefully it runs for you because it was made from a newer version of the game (developer build).

Thank you very much! Brilliant support! I will see if it runs.

I do remember seeing during one enemy turn, that the town was occupied by infantry unit, and then another enemy infantry unit moved to it - so two were on top of each other. I thought it was a graphical glitch, and because I pulled back, the fog of war covered the town and when I returned, there was just the 1 enemy unit present. Weird.

I don't suppose you have the auto save made at the end of the turn before this happened?
