GWX 3.0 GW Officer AWOL bug

cuthy2k · 05-01-15, 05:50 AM

I return from a glorious mission racking up a couple of successful convoy attacks, some good deck gunning and a few close encounters due to sleeping watchmen and one of my officers decides to go completely AWOL between returning to port and launching the next sortie.

Is he asleep under a table in the pub? Enjoying certain houses of ill-repute in St Nazaire? Gone home to the birth of his twins?

No-one knows.

The rooster tallys him as the 5th officer out of 5, but the officer icon is blank. I cannot dismiss him, I cannot replace him, I try clicking on all the blank officer icons to see if he is hiding, but he has simply vanished forcing me to set sail with only 4 active officers out of my compliment of 5.

I return to port with my sub held together with duct-tape & shoe laces and my one remaining diesel held together with the contents of a dismembered torpedo in the hope he may be waiting for me on the dock to help lending a hand with the repairs following a suicidal convoy attack off Islay on the Scottish West Coast - he is after all my qualified repairman! Nope, still AWOL.

Has anyone else come across the 'disappearing and not being able to replace an officer bug'?

Help appreciated as my campaign is getting quite difficult without him!
