Province overrun -> redeployement in capital bug

[Mjarr]

This is quite simple bug: if you E.G. redeploy unit in Paris, and if Paris is overrun before the unit arrives there once the ETA is 'done' the unit will redeploy back to your capital, while in HoI2 ArmA if it that happened it simply redeployed it to the nearest owned province (E.G. Compilegne or any other province I might have under my control next to Paris).

Of course, unless this behaviour is WAD

Are you sure this happened in ARMA? AFAIK this is a feature of HOI 3.

I had a redeploy back in the original province... so I'm not sure on the coding here. Definatel wasn't *nearest province* back in ARMA though.

Yes, atleast in ArmA 1.2 if unit was redeployed and the province was lost it redeployed it in fashion I mentioned. I've never had unit popping up back in capital if the place of redeployement was occupied by the enemy before they arrived.

I´ve just loaded up ARMA 1.3beta the 1944 scenario as GER and redeployed into a province that was soon under attack and overrun. Those units reappeared in Berlin. I don´t think they changed this back from 1.2, so I assume this has not been included in HOI 2-based games (don´t know about mods).

Only possible solution I can figure out is some weird glitch in multiplayer or so, or I am really recalling things out of proportion
