Bug placing replacements

Scenario = Frozen North in MP

Bought a new tank unit and placed adjacent to a city. Adjacent to new tank unit was an ennemy unit, not visible due to FOW. When the tank was placed the unit was still not visible (although it was now adjacent to the newly placed tank)

Next I move an infantry unit with intended destination the ennemy units' hex... In the process of movement this infantry stops in the hex where the newly bought tank unit was placed (because the adjacent ennemy unit stops movement) .... Tank unit now has disappeared

Likewise I seemed to notice that if you buy a new unit and place it adjacent to a city hex which contains (for example) an ennemy airfield, that ennemy airfield now becomes yours, but you dont get the prestige points.

Regarding that second point of yours, I seem to remember that the old PG series didn't even give you the flag, so at least in that respect this is an improvement... :lol:

(But the obligatory control question is: you sure you haven't taken that airfield previously? You only get prestige for taking a flag once)

Interesting, that first point is a bug, and I know what's causing it. I'll do a proper document on it tomorrow.

As for your second point, I suspect Molve may be right because I did test this just now and it did reward prestige.
