Default Re: Bug...AI hijacks artillery and targets own units.

If you are playing a game after loading it, go to the bombardment screen when given the opportunity (turn 1 or so, unless attacking). Press the button marked "clear" under the programme heading to clear all programmes.

The bug is intermittent, and only seems to happen when playing on to a new game after completing one where programmed fire was used. This would typically be in an ongoing campaign, where the AI was attacking you and used a programmed artillery plan (I think it only does this in the full game, not the free demo).

I couldn't get it to happen in umpteen tests when debugging a report of it, but put in extra clear-down code for the variable in a couple of places and have not seen the behaviour happen in ongoing testing.
