KNOWN BUG: Aircraft orders problem

[unmerged(8319)]

Aircraft orders problem

In 1.05c I've encountered a new problem: in some cases my airlplanes will not acknowledge given orders: If I order a tacbomber to attack a certain in-range province it will make the usual 'X' on the target province, but no line comes up and there's no arrival date under the icon. IOWs it won't attack.

The only happens in certain provinces. All others are OK.

The same happens with intercept or patrol orders to a fighter. Neither RMB or CTRL+RMB works.

Am I overlooking a new feature or what is happening?

Anything common about the provinces you are trying to go to? Your provinces [known bug]? Also, have you let 1 hour pass and then try again? Does that work?

Does it happen when you do defensive bombing?

Which provinces?

Yes, it also happens with defensive bombing. My recent experience was playing as China. I was ia. trying to execute defensive tacbombing in Shanghai against a naval landing, but there was none of the neighbouring provinces that would allow me to launch an airattack (all below the 200 kms range). Naval bombing from the same provinces works OK.

In that game I also had trouble making my fighter intercept the japanese over friendly territory (forgot name - the one just south of Hothot).

This is a clean HOI v.1+patch 1.05+ 1.05c.

Btw.: I also often get the '<No games found>' message in the order box. Redeploying usually gets rid of it, but ofc. it's an unwanted work around.

I don't understand that part. What part is a known bug?

this is similar to the bug I encountered playing as Japan. See Japan Bug 105.c on bug list. These are probably the same issue. It seems certain countries have problems executing bombing missions when being attacked or invaded.

Same bug and known

*sigh!*
It's impossible to self-censor such errorreports if the bug list isn't updated...

I strongly suspect there's more to it.

Initially it was just one or two provinces when I played Russia. Then, as Nat. China, it was a bunch of provinces, and now as Italy it's EVERY friendly province. Is there some kind of log in this game that carries over and accumulates this bug or what?

This bug is absolutely a gamekiller.

That's because we don't use the bug logging program anymore and instead report them all directly to Johan... I could update it I think. Let me do that tomorrow then

Yepp, 1.05c, republican spain, cannot bomb own provinces, and occational <game not found> in air orders dialog, hope this is fixed in 1.06...

easily reproducable, happens in every game as rep.spain / nat. spain.

spain and several other nations unplayable until fixed.

Must have been at least 6-8 months ago when this bug was first mentioned on the boards.

I KNOW ! And it will be fixed
