My tanks had attack order and entered the minefileds (3 different hexes). About half of them after standard delay continued the attack but second half of them suddenly auto-changed order from attck" to "hold". Now I had to send them new attack order and this fact causes that they are foolishly sitting in the open area under enemy fire and are waiting for time of "next order" what is very long. I guess this is annoying bug. Unfortunately I have no save, because it is situation from PBEM match.

Was this a group order or individual orders? Any other details you can think of would help. We will have our Dev call tonight and PBEM bugs will be a hot topic. Sorry for the bug.

I suppose I sent individual orders... but i can�t say it certainly. Other important detail is that my PC collapsed during match replaying. Before this "PC death" I can�t manage to notice if the orders are changed. But after new start of PC and game replay the orders were changed...

I am glad you want to focus on PBEM. Multiplayer should be important part of your game. I play it rather than singleplayer... the feeling of the match against human is always better than against AI. It is generally fact not only in your game ;)

If you can replay the turn can you get screen shots of one of the units before and after the order change? If you can, make sure to select the unit so we can see the units details in the UDP.

Thanks for your help.

The screenshot before order change i can�t make. I have pics after that tanks start to move again with new assault order. One coy (1/1/44th) is still in hex with cleared minefield the others are one hex from minefields away.
