Army Manager Issue or user Issue?

I used the army manager window to split off the XIX Bulgarian Corps from this detachment into a new one.

I moved it from the original group on the left to the section on the right. The last green message in my log says it created a new one ... in the Tartar region.. which I've yet to find. The XIX disappeared and is nowhere to be found in Bulgaria. I tried to drag & drop it into it's region to create a new detachment, but the hotspots can be elusive for me.

This isn't the first time I've had these disappear using the army management screen. What's happening? Is there something I'm missing? :bonk:

Tartar is a pass close to Kolomea, in Austria-Hungary.

I have no idea on how you did it! :bonk:

Like I said, it's not the first time I've seen it either.

I'm breaking things lots. :wacko:

Will keep trying.

I tried to replicate, doing so:

1) I selected a stack in France
2) I open the army manager
3) I active the check-box "show forces located on all map"
4) I browse all stacks on the right panel till the empty (new) one (I use the mouse wheel which is faster!)
5) I select a stack on the left panel... let's say in Greece!
6) I drag & drop a unit from the left panel to the right one, hoping to reproduce what happened to you, that's to say expecting the Greek unit is displaced in France...

It does not happen! The unit is properly stacked in the same Greek area where it was located! :bonk:

How did you do?!?!?! :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

This was the first turn of the 1915 scenario.

I created a new one, opened the options, checked and unchecked all the extra turn-based stuff to make sure those were taken out. Army activation and the other indented one were still checked when I re-checked turn-based option from a couple games ago when I tried them, so I made sure to uncheck them before also unchecking turn-based (just in case those options were somehow not switched back off along with the main turn-based one). I then exited the scenario and restarted it fresh.

After that, there isn't even a XIX Bulgarian Corps in that location, nor in existence. I've played a turn and tried to break it again a few times and it's been just fine.

I've escaped from the Twilight Zone.

If it will make you feel any better, I have first prize on stupid. Read my thread here named "Engage button freezes." :wacko:
