Ghost Units in AI List

Hidee-ho,
I have gone through all the AI units on the map and changed them from an AI team to no team ("-" symbol). The AI setup still shows 9 Units assigned to AI Team 1 and units each assigned to other AI teams. This is the 3rd Scenario in the campaign and I have done a lot of AI Team reassigning in developing the first two scenarios.

So far, there are about 15 AI teams but I have changed them around a few times.

1) Anybody ever have this happen to them before? Non-existent units listed as AI Team members?
2) Is there a way we can clear the AI Team memory somehow to get rid of the ghost units assigned?

thanks in advance, I don't have much hope of resolving this so any help would be appreciated...

And you have of course checked all minefields and structures?
Adding minefields late after a faction has been set to AI will automatically add 1 to all minefield's team field...

what about pillboxes? Do they add to units? How does the AI know how to assign them?

anyway, I went back and deleted all the pillboxes from both sides, and it still shows 9 units assigned to AI Team 1 -- all the units are now assigned to "-".

No minefields

What a mystery...

If I remember correctly it is necessary to save and reload the scenario to update the number of units assigned to an AI (?)

Yep, could very well be the case. Don't expect the game to "refresh" the screen/stats on its own.

You could add the scenario here. Fresh eyes...

Thanks for offering to look, Erik. I was getting ready to send you the link but the offending units are in the reserve box! I was all set up to send to you but it occurred to me to check that, after a couple of hours troubleshooting yesterday.

so thanks again, matey! You don't need a ticket to the freak show after all...
