Control - Supply Situation, what?

[Gargoyle]

As the Prussians, I declared war on Russia when the French did. I am not in a coalition. The French started a siege of Kovno, and I joined it. The French troops left leaving me sieging it on my own. I was allowed to assault the fort as the siege leader and took the province. It is hatched in my color.

But it has zero supply, and when I tried to build a depot there, it says I must control the province to build there. My army is out of supply standing there. I own adjacent provinces which are supplied with no enemy forts adjacent to them and my army is standing in Kovno, so no other fort adjacent to it can stop supply from getting into that province.

How can it be taken by me, colored in my national, yet not have supply when it is connected to Berlin? Does it have something to do with Kovno being a supply source itself? Does that mean it is in a different supply area? It should not be, because it should still be one big supply area as it is not separated from Berlin. And even if it is considered a separate supply area, it is the source itself, so should produce some supply.

Is this a bug? Help!

Update - reload the game, now the area shows in green for supply, 99% from Berlin.

BUT there is still a warning that they are out of supply on the top of the screen - says in the tooltip 99% from Berlin. Hey, game engine, is it in supply or not?

2nd update: After more time past, it cleared up.

Sometimes supply fluctuates. It gets weird for the Ottomans sometimes, but it usually sorts itself out after a couple of days.

Also, I think units that are operating with less than 100% supply will draw additional supply when they get to a better supplied area until they get back to 100% supply. This might result in theater-wide drops in supply until the situation is rectified.

My French game had some weird supply issues, Paris disappeared from the list of supply providers and my entire army was being supplied from Holland and Bayonne for some reason. That was ofc way to little supply leaving random units out of supply including garrisons in provinces with supply depots, and the French homeland was a "low supply" area. Reloading fixed it and i forgot to take screenies but it amused me.
