Possible bug- British naval unit cannot enter Egyptian port

Post by zechi »

Perhaps I encountered a possible bug in the latest patch 2.01.35. Before the activation of Egypt my British naval units cannot enter the Egyptian ports anymore, despite some naval units spawning there. If I move the units the ports become inaccessible. Save game has been sent to Borger and Ronnie.

This has been there always if I recall correctly. If Egypt is neutral then the ports are neutral too and can't be entered. you can spawn naval units there when Italy joins so they can rearrange. To get rid of that we need to let Egypt activate at the same time as Italy.

As Stauffenberg recalls, it has always been there. But you can go go through the loop instead. That is usually good enough. You also have one portNosija.

OK, thank you for the answers. Nevertheless, it seems weird that you can use the ports to form transports with the GAR in Alexandria and Port Said before the Egyptian activation and that the British naval units will spawn there, but cannot enter the ports after they leave them.

Nevertheless, it is not a big issue, but if there is an easy solution then this "bug" should be fixed. Either the British should not be able to use the ports at all before the Egyptian activation (no spawning and no forming of transports) or they should be available from the start for the British.
