Finally indeed,. This was always so annoying.
Im not good at HOI 2 scripting at all but if what youre doing is making the expeditionary forces switch sides then that's something I wouldn't do.
Its a bit weird, in some situations it can be useless, as if they do it in a stack, in others if they are guarding like the Suez canal its totally OP.
I'd rather suggest deleting those units and then recreating them in Iraq.
I'm not sure if Iraq sending expeditionary forces is what happened in our timeline, but editing their AI file to not send expeditionary forces at all will keep all their troops in Iraq leading to a more satisfying experience. If you want Iraq to send expeditionary forces after they switch back to the Allies you'll need to create another AI file but who feels like doing all that. 3 lines of code are edited. The first one startins with exp_force_ration.
The file is Darkest Hour/Mods/Darkest Hour Full/Ai/irq_1936.ai
