Default Re: bug with ghost platoon in long campaign

hi,

this bug appeared in a long campaign with v2.5 of winspww2 and remains with v3
it concerns my core troops and the rooster: i am unable to use groups B,C D and many others when buying new core troops because it seems that there are ghost platoons.
you can see this when you begin a new battle and go to your rooster

commander A0 seems to be in charge of many sections that do not exist, mainly artillery troops.

i do not know when this bug appeared, i recall just that i deleted a few of my core troops and i did not buy new core troops at once

moreover, i do not know if this is related, but now my artillery troops no longer fire smoke at turn 0

and finally when now buying new core plattons, the numbering of my platoons is now incorrect, like AS0 AS1 AT2 AT3 AU4 AU5...

is there a way to correct this?
many thanks
francois
If you did this in 2.5, then it will continue in the ongoing campaign - version number has nothing to do with this.

The "phantom" formations seem to be the ones you deleted, and did not immediately replace. (That is the likely problem, which I'll look into). They only show in the cross-attachment screen & main roster, not the unit list.

Any arty I bought - or the one mortar you have in the core - has smoke on the pre-turn bombardment screen, as usual. (though the exe I have has a small fix for core unit smoke buy problems, which may affect this, it's unlikely since this only affected the PBEM campaign cores).

Cheers
Andy
