I noticed after I was able to create divisions in 1.16 that sometimes the division's name didn't change to "division xx" rather it remained under the commander's name. Is this WAD or a potential bug?

CSA or USA?

I'm playing as USA against the AI.

As long as we're talking about Stack/Unit Names, I know I've reported this already in one of the RC threads, but I don't remember if it was noticed; when you add a naval commander to a fleet the name changes to 'Fleet', just 'Fleet', not 'Dahlgren's Fleet' or what ever leader has been added to the stack. This always happens with 100% certainty.

Found it, I think...

I think this is another example of the "persistant name" code, in which case it is WAD.

If you separate just the leader from the stack, then merge the units into that leader, then create the division, you should get the correct new name.

That's how it works now, and likely will for the rest of time, as the new games are somewhat reliant on this.

Ah ok, explains that. Thanks for the help If you want I can try uploading my saved game files anyway.

no need, unless what I described doesn't work
