KNOWN BUG: Units' names

Units' names

Very annoying! I noticed that even if I don't load a new game, names are changing. For instance my Transport 1 becomes 1st Fleet! So I spend a lot of time searching for my Transport 1 but it does not exist anymore! Grrr.

When you merge units, hold down the control key, making sure the name you want is in the box. Then merge. Your name will stay .

Small naming thingy bug thingy. The plural of Corps is Corps.(Maybe add an apostrophie, not sure). Corpses refers to numerous dead people.

I think they took the bug report title directly from the subject line of the thread where it was reported. That's the way it was spelled in the thread.

Yeah I've seen it a couple of times. It can make for some funny lines. "Corpses won't move." "My Corpses have disappeared". "Merging Corpses" (Hello, Dr Frankenstein).....

Aye, I know... It still happens from time to time...

Unit names all the same during production

Sometimes, whilst producing say 12 infantry divisions, all the unit names are the same.

it was fixed in 1.04 i believe, but in 1.05c its reappeared.

No, it's because some names are too long in the unitnames.csv
We are fixing it (in fact Birch23 & me are)
