1119f beta

Attached Screenshot shows Pearl Harbor with Aviation Support 454+40.
Destination screen (Pearl Harbor) shows 227.

Eng support total is 177 and HQ support is 50.
Both add up to 227.
40 Aviation Support is provided by Tenders.

So where does the value of 454 come from?

EDIT: Transfering planes from San Diego to Los Angeles shows the same effect.
Los Angeles shows 248, the destination screen (from San Diego) shows 124 which is in line with the only Eng unit at Los Angeles (Los Angeles Base Force).

In one of the latest beta patches the aviation support was doubled for level 8+ airfields.

I remember that.
However, why is that shown on the base screen but not the destination screen?
In other words, when scanning the possible targets for a destination of a transfer one might easily miss a suitable base because the Aviation Support is seemingly too low, while in fact it isn't.

Anyway, thanks for your reply Dan.

For that screen, it recalculates av support from units not the base total. The base total is already done.
Should use the calculated value to save effort.

Found that some other places where the display could be wrong. will add that to the next fix
