Playing as Japan 1936. I have a little problem with convoys. Namely, they won't transport oil. No matter how many transports are in the convoy, or how much oil I have, it's not transported to any of my supply depots. And yes, I have set oil to be transported by the relevant convoys.

At the moment, this is not a real problem. I only have the HQ's you start with, but it has the possibility of crippling me later in the game. Also, I hate the red 'out of fuel' oildrop. What the hell is going on?

I noticed the same. Marco Polo Bridge incident turned quite embarrassing.

I noticed the same in 2 USA games. I suspect the convoy system only looks at supply levels, ignoring the oil requirements.
It *will* ship oil if supply is also needed at that time.

I got around it by creating a convoy manually and unticking the 'auto add or remove ships from convoy' (or whatever the option is called exactly).

Maybe log it as a bug?

Make sure your resource convoys don't convoy oil back from where you get it by supply convoys.

Make sure your resource convoys don't convoy oil back from where you get it by supply convoys.

I unticked the box for oil on the resource convoys to make sure, but it didn't help. Plus, the tooltip says '51.4 supplies' but no oil, even though the oil is needed.

I noticed the same in 2 USA games. I suspect the convoy system only looks at supply levels, ignoring the oil requirements.It *will* ship oil if supply is also needed at that time.

I got around it by creating a convoy manually and unticking the 'auto add or remove ships from convoy' (or whatever the option is called exactly).

Eh, it doesn't help if I need supply as well. I canceled my supply convoy to Tangshan, and let all the supplies run out, then recreated it, but oil still wasn't transported. I'll try not letting the AI manage anything about my convoys, and see if that help.

Strange, I had this problem in HOI2 1.3, but it went away with DD 1.1

Playing Japan 36, with auto convoy I noticed the islands to the south near hong kong (can't remember the name) had an engineer brigade that used oil, and I had to manually manipulate the convoys in HOI2, but with DD it is supplying oil with autoconvoy. Not sure what's different but I'm in supply all the time and haven't had any supply problems through 1940 so far.

Ian.

I've fixed the probelm. To do so, I had to turn all AI convoy management off. Normally, I turn off auto manage ships, but leave on auto create/destroy, otherwise I forget to make the new convoys I will eventually need.

So Lothos, what you're saying is that it is not taking brigades into consideration?

So if you have brigades that require oil attached to inf divisions which normally don't require oil, then the convoys won't automatically supply oil?

This should probably be fixed if that is the case.

Are you 100% sure the brigades you have at that specific location require oil? Also are you sure they are not using the oil up as soon as it gets their cause I have never seen this problem.

What was happening was that no convoys were supplying oil. I checked this in the convoy screen. Oil was needed- I had three HQ units out of fuel- but it wasn't being delivered, on any convoy. There was no oil in any of my supply depots, either.

Don't know if thisshelps but...

I had the same problem. My way of dealing with it was to prioritise some local troops that needed oil and hey presto oil turned up.

For me there was an issue of shortage of transports though so that may also have been a factor.
