Bug: Still getting Ghost Problems in PBEM

[DRG]

What would you think if you got a PM like this...... ??

You are NOT the only opponent for people who PBEMs long campaigns

I see. Thanks for that.

I uninstalled the game.

THAT sounds like a corrupted save game file. How the corruption occured is open to debate.

In one of my three new PBEM campaigns, battle number eh, 3 or 4, in the middle of the battle, ghost crews appeared on my side (HQ list etc)
They were not there while deploying, but I think they appeared this turn. I clicked on the list of my units to choose a specific unit and show crews here and there, where there should be none.
I played my turn and sent it.

This is on a new installation and seperate installation from the other two.

Only this PBEM campaign is played and no other multi or single player games. As usual, I haven't changed anything in the game apart from the usual default settings (delays etc).

This is what I received and show the problem.

I attach the file. I unrared and zipped it so that I upload it here.
I am PRC.

Ghost crews have not appeared yet on the other two PBEM campaigns/installations, although they are in an earlier stage of their respective campaigns.

We'll look at it but..........

At this point we know you can generate ghost crews on in a game played on your computer and that through the save game files it will sometimes transfer to your opponents game when the game files are passed back and forth

That fact has been established

We don't know why that happens and cannot recreate it on our computers so what I am most interested in now is to hear from anyone else, who is not your opponent, that this has happened to.

I don't know if it helps at all, or if it even matters, but my opponent from this game told me that he too saw ghost crews, but he did during the first turn.

[DRG]

Where were they ? What units were they attached to? They couldn't have been dead units if he saw them the first turn

I don't know, I will ask him.

He told me that his ghost crews are tank crews. I know he hasn't lost any tanks during this battle, but nothing more, for obvious reasons. (on going campaign)
