Had a rather large flight up ferrying to another location. Couldn't make up my mind as to where to move them so i did change their orders several times. Then i got a notice they ran out of fuel and crashed. Why in the world would the game let you change the orders if they are just gonna crash? Yes the base they came from had gotten destroyed, but i also had other flights up that didn't crash and landed fine. The only difference, i didn't change their destination mid flight. If it had just been a few, i wouldn't be so salty, but it was 16 planes, 7 strike fighters, 2 naval strike fighters and 7 bombers.

So, is the game operating as intended and if so, how do i know when it is okay to change destination so i don't have a repeat?

This game is expensive to play competitively. So I'm a bit miffed. That total represents a couple weeks of production, not to mention the gold spent here and there to speed things along.

Thanks for the response. To me, that does not explain why the flight of 5 air superiority fighters stayed airborne, who were ordered to leave much later, and did not crash while the other did. Again however, thanks for all consideration.

Thanks, I'm not has "hot under the collar" anymore... time always gives perspective. If you did pm me. I must be missing something because i can't seem to find it.
