WAD: Bug? Exploit?? Dumb Mistake???

Bug? Exploit?? Dumb Mistake???

Playing as Italy, annexed Albania, waited a bit, annexed Yugoslavia, left the convoy from Tirana to Taranto running as it was supplying me with oil from Albania. I was 'producing' 56 oil a month from both the world market and from my conquered Albanian province. I annex Greece next. Now my oil production rises again thanks to my captured Greek oil-producing province. I decide to cancel the Albanian convoy because I have an obvious overland connection thru Yugoslavia to my home territories in Italy, so I cancel the convoy, and my oil production DROPS from just over 60 something to 31.

No, I am not at war, so it's not a world market thing.

It dropped after I cancelled the convoy, so where did it go? It's not accumulating in Tirana, or Greece. Is it then possible that I can 'falsely' produce 60 oil by keeping the convoy running? Or is this WAD? Granted, I am still producing oil, but 60 is better than 30.....

Weird... Never encountered it, or spotted it. Anyone else has an idea?

Maybe this qualify?

If you are using the "Daily resource flow" in the ledger, the numbers can be wrong if you are using convoys. I think this has been reported.
The error is only in the ledger, the "real" value on the screen is correct IIRC.
What I mean is you can not cheat by increasing the number of ships in the convoy (again IIRC).


If you don't trade you will get 34 oil (11 from IT, 8 from Yugo, 8 from ALB, 7 from GRE) when all provinces return to normal.


Are you sure the trade is active? (Not in red)
How much do you trade?

Think I got it

By annexing Yugoslavia and then Greece I gained alot of Industry that needed rubber to function, so I believe that my oil production went down because my amount being converted went up......

Pretty Sure that's it....

Most probably...
