Airdrops

[Chris21wen]

It's a new Soviet turn, nothing happened.

I was testing airdrops so I chose the 2 VVS that has a Li-2 Transport rgt set to daytime ops. The test I wanted to carry was to drop supplies to the AT unit using this transport rgt, but I couldn't?? I could use it to transport fuel but not supply. I've reloaded the turn numerous time and on some the transport unit is available??? I compltely baffled by this.

Can you screenshot the actual Li-2 transport unit?

Are you trying to use the Pe-2 and SB-2 to trasnport supply after the fuel drop? If you are using bombers they can only deliver supply on their first mission?

No, just the Li-2. As has been said nothings flown or moved air miles zero on everything.

Here's copy of when it did work. The only difference bewtween them is the border colour around the air unit on map an in the unit bar. It's yellow when I can't and blue when I can, If I cancelled the mission deseect everything and go back and do it again the li-2 becomes unavailable again??????

I think I've found the problem. It's a select problem, or more precisely the order you do it.

1. Select F9
2. Left click unit
3. Toggle shift key
4. Right click target

Doing it in another order causes the problem.

I've tried it on an earlier save using different units and it does the same. I've not tried it on a different scenario. Would someone else try it please.

if that then it is almost certainly the same as this bug report? There was the same issue of airdrops only being possible in a certain order of operations.
