Convoy Problem (bug)

[Garuda]

Hi,

Playing only my second DD game. I'm UK 1937 and have a problem with my convoys.

I create a resource convoy to bring resources back from Hong Kong containing about 30+ transports and a dozen escorts. As soon as I close the 'creation screen' I notice that the AI has upped my convoy to 600+ transports (all of my remaining pool) and zero escorts. I then notice that other convoys have been similarly altered; 100 or 200+ transports and all escorts cancelled.

I can get around this by disabling the AI auto management of convoys, but that obviously disables a useful tool to avoid micro-management.

How to report a bug

Doesn't seem like a bug to me, based on the description you provide. With auto-convoy on, the game engine simply utilises all transports you have in a meaningfull way.

Do you have a huge stockpile in hong kong that needs transporting?

Yes. But the AI is adding hundreds of transports at a time and cancelling all of my escorts. That can't be right?
