BUG: Upgrading to latest model?

Upgrading to latest model?

Sorry if this has been asked.
I'm using 1.03.
I have noticed that my units always have the option of upgrading to the latest model. This happens even after I upgrade a unit but do not get any tech advances between the time I upgrade and the time the unit is finished upgrading. Is this right?
I also have the option of upgrading Infantry, with or without attached brigades. Is this right? I though Infantry automatically upgraded.
Thanks.

Have the same problem

I have the same problem but only with one specific unit. It is a Panzer division that has a Brigade attached to it. No matter how much I upgrade it the option is always there and the numbers on it never change.

It is there for infantry, and nobody has up till now run down what caused it

Thanks.

It does it for all my units so far. I haven't upgraded any naval units yet.

hmmm

This was an issue in 1.02. I ran a few tests and figured that once you discover the Advanced Logistics group of techs that the Upgrade button is on for many of the unit types. I posted this in the Bug forum a couple weeks ago or so detailing the exact techs that caused this problem.

There are some infantry types that are unaffected if I remember right, mostly militia and mountain units without brigades. Also the discovery of the Tank Transportation trucks only affects Armor and Mech units.

This same problem exists in 1.03.

I have tried with Naval units, and they are bugged too. Having advanced everything, and CAs can be upgraded to improved it seems, but CV's only to pre-war (???), BBs to basic, and destroyers are somewaht erratic as they mainly can only be upgraded to pre-war (sometimes more) but then can't be upgraded after. (This was done as Japan).

I'm playing Germany in the 1936 scenario.
All the units are my own. I don't recall when it started. I noticed it in late 1939. It might be related to a specific tech as suggested.

Upgrading - Upgrading and Upgrading

I have a similar problem. It dosnt affect planes og navel units - Only inf. mot. mec and arm. units and only antitank, antiair and
artillery units. I tried upgrading normal inf. and mot. as Germany when annexing Austria. But my it seems that when i have build a artillery unit i can keep upgrading it. Between upgrading no new tech is produced ???

Strange!!!!! Irretating to use good IC on nothing.

Until this bug is fixed you should check the stats on a new unit of the same type before upgrading. If they're the same there's really no upgrade available. (Except possibly for stats that don't show anywhere like the various combat and movement %efficiency changes; maybe these are the upgrades being done?)

Upgrade

Ok..I have run into another upgrade problem unique to 1.03. In 1.02 I was able to identify which techs caused the upgrade button to permanatly appear, since they were the improved logistics techs (Infantry level 6) I just avoided researching these and that solved the problem.

Now in 1.03, in a 1936 scenario as the germans,my panzer units have a permanant upgrade..but my mech and infantry units do not...and I never researched the logistics techs under the Infantry research tree. Hmm...I will try and figure out this one now.

Tank upgrades

Ok..here is what I have able to determine so far. Playing as the Germans in a 1936 scenario with patch 1.03.


Armor units with the artillery, antitank, and air defense brigades when they upgrade from basic medium tank to improved medium tank will have the Upgrade button permanatly on.

Armor units without a brigade or with the engineer brigade upgrade normally and the Upgrade button is no longer highlighted once the initial upgrade is completed.

The size of the main gun does not matter, I ran this test with only the 40mm, then 50mm, and the 70mm and had identical results.

So in this case the relationship is between those 3 brigade types and the techs required for upgrading to Improved Medium Tank.

I also ran a seperate test checking the Improved Logistics techs (Infantry Level 6) and once researched the upgrade button is highlighted on the same units I identified using 1.02. For the first test, I did not have the Improved Logistic techs researched.
