In the newest version (2.2), the german right-click-add-members-to-squad has a bug. The names arent correct. Eg. heerschutze40_28 is a german soldier with STG 44, heerschutze40_23 is a german soldier with a Panzershreck, even when the year is 1940. This is the picture in the troop pool.
If you look at the UKs feature, the names are right(even tho they are all riflemen). Don't know how it is with the other nations, but ill check them when i can.
And is it supposed to be, that the new members are so cheap, that you can make compleately custom squads with 8 credits? The veterancy (i think) is the only reason to buy more expensive units (with the infatry addon pack).

This doesn't ruin the whole mod, but it's kinda annoying if you buy the wrong one(even tho they are so cheap).

(I don't know if this is "bug" is with everyone or just me.)

EDIT. I went to do a mission with a custom squad, all the soldiers were normal riflemen(with kar98k). What's going on?

[Kohlrabi]

It's only the pictures that are wrong... I didn't make new pictures for the reinforcement soldiers.
So just pay no attention to them...
Almost all available reinforcements are raw recruits armed with a rifle, so getting a full squad for 8 points isn't really a bargain...you'd be better off buying a "proper" squad.

I will change the icons for the next version though, thanks for pointing it out.

EDIT: And here is a fix:

Just put the file in .../mods/Campaign/

I've encountered some unhandled exeptions, they are quite annoying when you have visual studio installed.
In this version there's one that keeps popping up all the time:

Value of '02.06.1941' is not valid for 'MinDate'. 'MinDate' Must be less than 'MaxDate'. Parameter date: MinDate.
Callstack:

Thanks. I've never seen it produce an error there - I'll look and see what I can find. Can you tell me what you were doing when it happened? starting a campaign? with who? what theatre?

[kallek]

Starting a Ger Campaing in NA theatre.

[Jason1]

Strange, you shouldn't get dates before Feb 12, 1941 in that theatre. I tested it and it worked fine for me, but I do see in the code how that's a possibility, so I can add some checking for the next version. Have you changed any files? Can you post your log.txt? (from mods/campaign)

[kallek]

No changes, but as I stated, I hav VS installed on the machine running MOW, and it is the JIT debugger that is catching these. I might just be some kind of warning that the exeption is possible, as i am able to press continue in the debugger, and the game runs fine.

Great Mod BTW , really adds to the longevity of the game.

After starting a new campaign, standard date, Western Front, US as enemy, the German Sturmpioners, don't keep the weapons I give them and instead the Garands and the M1A1 carbines all disappear leaving them with nothing as their main weapon. Has anyone else got this problem? I'm running 1.11.3 aspyr, with DCG 2.2 with Map pack, Infantry Pack and Vehicle Pack all version 2.2

[Kohlrabi]

Did you find these weapons in a box on the map? Those weapons do not transfer to the next battle.
Also, being in the middle of a reloading process while saving can cause this too... I think.
Please try to reproduce this bug, if you can... to see exactly when and why it happens.
