Question: Messed up purchase screen

[dTerm]

As for the order of the screenshots, you are correct; the numbers are the date and time I made them, so the order is chronological. I forgot to mention that.

The air sorties in Preferences are set to the default XXX.

I rebooted my machine several times in between, and still get the same result.

In your example, why is the the purchase screen expected to come back after you bought the 8 Apaches?

I was able to repeat it more than twenty times since yesterday, only the number of attack helos needed to be bought to trigger it varies. It doesn't happen always, but in 80-90% of my attempts.

Ok, I messed things up myself!

Looked up air sorties in the manual and realized my mistake.
I just was not aware of the fact, that the number of air sorties is also relevant to on-map aircrafts, like attack helos.

So I apologize for shouting BUG too fast!

Good to know, attack helicopters are awesome, I like to buy as many as I can, that is, as long as it doesn't break the bank. Now, I'll consider all types of aircraft, even on-map aircraft, as the Maximum Number of Air Sorties allowed.

But, I don't understand why a whole page of purchased units disappeared. Seems to me, that you just wouldn't be allowed to buy anymore aircraft.

It's not the page of purchased units that disappears, but parts of the table of available units. All the aircrafts, that you are no longer allowed to purchase, because you used up all your air sorties.

I always set my available sorties to 50 for both sides and have fun with it.

That is PERFECTLY NORMAL and it's worked that way since day one. If you use up all your allotted flights then NO OTHER air will appear because you used up all your allotted flights.

Attack helos and fixed wing ground support are both part of that so if you use up all your flights then anything in that category goes away because you cannot buy any more of it
