Game crashing in Rising Sun

[Big Ivan]

I went back and checked the org file again. On 7th Company (Japanese) I found unit 3/4 which is a Type 89 50mm Grenade Discharger the only one I saw in the org file. 

Then I checked the game I was playing and low and behold I found 2x Type 89 50mm Grenade Discharger on board.

Looks like one started on the board at (12,14) and then another one came in on Turn 6 at hex (19,19) as a reinforcement but doesn't appear in the org file!

That tells me the scenario was built and then the org file for whatever reason was changed but the scenario was never updated to take out the phantom unit. That is a danger of building a scenario, adding units to it, saving and then going back to change the org file by removing something but not updating the scenario.

I have seen this a few times with Random Battle generation where off board artillery has been placed. If your going to add more units to your Random scenario be careful with artillery because the org file doesn't tell you which artillery units are in off- board status. They still appear in the org file and can be put on board. If that happens you have the phantom phenom being created.

Dave and Ash, I am not sure why it plays on my rig and not yours. Maybe because of divine intervention, but I doubt it. 

You might want to go back and save a new copy of the same scenario calling it something else. Then go into the scenario editor and removing the reinforcements from Turn 6. There are (1) MG Section and (2) Trucks which appear to be legit. You can then add those back in under Turn 6 at (70% probability) as reinforcements. Then go back and see if the newly created  scenario opens w/o Crashing to Desktop (CDT). 

This has been fixed in CS-Vietnam I believe with the newly created "Track ID's" utility and programming which allows one to track each ID of a unit in the scenario editor and when playing a game. It is a handy utility that has been long overdue.
