Location error for N.Y. units

I have noticed several times when the AI is placing reinforcement units for the North that the list says they are placed in a particular town or city but they're actually placed elsewhere. It's always a New York unit & it ALWAYS appears in northern N.Y. in the town just east of Albany (can't remember name at this moment). I'm running the latest patch (1.13b). This happens every game. For instance: The unit will show as being in Indianapolis but it's not there. Upon closer inspection the unit description will be a N.Y. unit & when I click on the unit icon it takes me to that city.
It doesn't make the game unplayable but I was wondering does anyone else have this problem?
Also, if it's a game "bug", is it fixable by our game designers?

Welcome to the AGEod AACW forums. We hope you enjoy your stay.
I would have to have more specific details. The next time it occurs could you zip up the saved game files and attach them to a post here. If you are unfamiliar with attaching files to a thread post, get back to me. I'll try to help out. Thanks for the feedback.
I would be glad to as it happened again today while I was playing. LOVE the game by the way, it's a true addiction on my part. The city is Troy just east of Albany.
And yes, you might need to instruct me as to the how.
I'm really IMPRESSED

by the response time, Lensman.
Greatly appreciated!!

Uh, Lensman, things aren't quite the same for me. I'm running Vista not XP. I get to the third step & it's not looking the same, i.e., Manage Attachments.jpg.
Up to this point I'm ok. Also trying to find the exact location of the saved games & having problem there too.
At this moment I have the location error occurence, stopped game, clicked save & exited immediately to get back to you.
HELP!!!

Lensman, here is a file that has the error. Sorry that it has been so long (May) but I think I've got the attachment thing figured out.

Above I had posted an expansion of phantomfeather's mislocatipon bug along with pics to illustrate the problem and specific saved game files for bug reproduction. None are available anymore for programmer use. I don't keep personal copies of bug reports once I post them.
Sorry phantomfeather, it appears we'll have to wait for this bug to reappear at some future time. We appreciate your earlier feedback.
I can practically assume it will happen again unless 1.14 has done something. I lost my first PBEM & am now playing solo against AI with new patch. Should I repost if it occurs?

Hi,
Thanks for the saved game and your efforts you all (impressive attachment tutorial Gray!), I'll check this bug.

The save "Wrong Placement Reporting Bug saved game files" does not contain units recruited in NY for the Union...
