Massive Airfield Bug
RIght now in game 1,147,825 I have two groups of Airplanes over two Italian Provinces currently under Yugoslavia's control. One group are level 5 Tactical Bombers and the other group are Level 6 Interceptors. I have Right of Way status with Yugoslavia, Green on both sides, but Yugoslavia is an inactive player turned AI.
The Interceptors are over Ravenna. Ravenna has an Airfield. Ravenna is controlled by Yugoslavia. When I click March and try to land them at the Ravenna Airfield, they try to fly to Venice, also under Yugoslavia control, refuel and then fly to Arezzo, which was originally outside of the interceptors range, and then drive to Ravenna.
My Tactical Bombers are currently over Florence. Florence also has an Airfield. Florence is also controlled by Yugoslavia. When I try to click march and land my bombers on the Florence Airfield, they attempt to fly to Venice, refuel and then fly to Arezzo, then land and drive to Ravenna and continue driving to Florence. Arezzo is also just outside of the bombers current flying range but both Florence and Ravenna Airfields, and city dots, are inside the circle.
The starting point for both groups of planes was Stuttgart.
I am currently flying the interceptors back to Stuttgart and then on to my Munich Airfield to see if getting them closer before starting changes anything.
I also hired 2 Spies and put one in each province set to Intelligence to verify that there are indeed Airfields there. I suppose just because the Airfield icon is present doesn't automatically mean there are actually any present.

I went to your link, read about it, and then voted. But that is totally separate from what my post is about. I am talking about trying to land planes on friendly airfields, not fighting other units.

Oh, lol, I jumped to conclusions. Sorry. Let me read your post.

I don't know how to solve this. Try reloading, closing down the browser etc. and wait for some staff to come. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

Airfields could be damaged therefore unusable for you to land at them?

You're right they are damaged. Espionage report doesn't show % of damage, but it looks low. But if they were too damaged to be used shouldn't the airfield disappear from the province map?

If you see an icon than the airfield should be functioning.BrutalArt1st wrote:

A damaged airfield still shows an icon, just like an airfield (or any other structure) under construction.
The icon doesnt mean u can use it.
What if I'm indoctrinated and actually fighting the good guys?

Ok then thats what needs changed. Sometimes I target provinces because of what they can offer to aid my advance.

Even if a province has an intact airfield, it will get damaged in your attack, regardless if it is defended.
I ve never captured an intackt airfield, industry or anything.

Try using only tanks and mech/moto inf. They cause little damage and can get me loads of stuff.BlackPrince2 wrote:

I wanted to make an update to this. I waited 24 hours for the Spies I placed in those two provinces to bring back intelligence. Those Airfields were indeed damaged. It would be nice in the future if Airfields that were too damaged to be used did not appear on the map. I occasionally make decisions about which province to attack next based on my needs at the time.
