Bug Report-Can't select unit to replace strength pips

Post by bssybeep »

I'm playing as the germans in the bitter end campaign.

On Dec 20, it asks me to select a unit to replace lost strength points.

But I cannot select any units. They are in supply and have loss pips, but nothing happens when I click on them. The commit button is greyed.

I attached the save.

thanks

Hello!

Thanks for the save, I added it into our bug section. Sadly, at this moment we are working hard to fix other important issues with the game and we will not be able to have a good look over your issue. I promise I will get back here as soon as we're done.

Thanks for your support!

Sounds almost exactly what I reported as well.

We have fixed some replacements bugs so we have to test out if this is fixed or not.

I checked and the units are in supply.

Since the game does not let me select any units, the commit is greyed out and I am stuck.

It's a bummer, as I was enjoying the game and winning :twisted:

All right! Back in business here with bug fixing. I downloaded your save game and it seems that the save from the Autosave slot lets me replace one strength pipe from the 326VG Infantry from Verviers.

This seems to work on both the live version, and the version that we are currently working on.

Thanks for checking. Upon spending more time with the game, I noticed the light blue outline on some units eligble for replenishing. I was wondering why can't you replenish any in supply unit? For example, all my heavy hitter armor units (playing as germans) needed some replenishment but were not eligible for some reason (per the supply overlay, they were in supply). Only a few useless units in the rear were eligible.

I figure I may be missing some rule.

I believe all in supply units (as determined by the supply overlay) should be eligible for replenishment.

thanks

Each turn you get infantry or armour replenishment points. You can only add to the correct unit type. Armour points are rare so you wont often get the chance to repair armour, at least as Axis.
