The formation has 61 units

60 is the maximum buffer size for a new formation IIRC - its going back 15 years or maybe 20 since I last looked at that. (You can have more than 60 in a company if you attatch individual platons in the game. Its just the hard limit for the creation buffer is 60. Seems to always have been that way).

Congratulations! - you found the first formation that actually gets chopped since it is too big to fit the formation creation buffer.

May put in some code to make mobhack flash the number if >60 units in a formation.... or fix the 60 to 91 which intuitively one would expect the buffer to be. (9x10 max element platoons, +1xHQ element)

Hmm - wrong, it was 40 in the original SSI code and it seems we changed it to 60 at some point in the distant past. Looks like a simple change to 91 shoulf dix it - on the TBI list now.
