Was pretty slow to turn the turn around today and probably will be next couple days too, FYI

[Il Palazzo]

One of my brigades is named 'Audit Support Brigade', which I'm pretty sure is something E.A. uses. I did not rename it so.

Also: that feeling when you decide to go for commerce, but you don't get the corporation.

[E. Albright]

That's, uh, very confusing. If I'm not mistaken, those were my initial independent artillery units before I upgraded them and their names changed back to the default name schema. It's possible that's what I was calling MG OOB units, but ATM all of them are either Special Audit Foo or Support Foo - and if I renamed the formations in the Formation Report (which I thought I had), the OOB ones have reverted to default names (though some or possibly even all of the independent ones haven't, though they have OTHER errors that suggest array or pointer addresses aren't what they should be - eg Ind MG BN is "Support Escalation Regiment", Ind MG RGT is "Independent MG Regiment", and Ind MG DIV is "Support Escalation Division").

If you could, go into your Formation Report and see if there's some stuff in there named for no good reason. If names are wandering about that freely and randomly, I'm worried about data integrity even if it appears to only be a trainwreck WRT custom formation names...

Edit: So do any of us have the corporation? I normally get it even if I'm not very Commerce, but I don't have it either.

So the independent machine gun regiment (and only the regiment) is called support escalation battalion. Similarly, the independent motorized infantry regiment is independent auditor battalion. While the independent infantry battalion is ind. auditor regiment. Probably a few more independent units, but I don't feel like clicking through them all.

I'm pretty sure I remember these names of yours appearing earlier, but for some reason I don't quite recall I paid them no heed. I remember seeing this naming scheme and wondering if this is some new fluff the game generates for militia or something. In any case, they're all back to normal now, save for one.

That happened to me too (when the patch dropped?) and I had to switch them all back. Only one of my brigades actually ended up changing, possibly when I had to replace a unit.

And also- no corporation here.

[E. Albright]

...and looking over my Formation Reports, it looks like my formation names are shuffled or reset too - or possible shuffled onto another nation and I've got someone else's now. Ugh. I guess I need to stop using that feature and renaming units individually until and unless it gets fixed.

Incidentally, I see an AI major making a burger run. And I'm getting "not open for diplomacy" when trying to use Major diplomacy stratagems on them - or their preferred dining venue. This last patch did some, um, !FUN! things. Nothing game-breaking so far, but eesh.

[Karlito]

Turn sent. Along with some covert messages in the formation types report.

[Il Palazzo]

Today everyone's open for diplomacy again.

[E. Albright]

Whereas for me, no one is open for diplomacy. Except possibly ma boi Karlito. My Light Infantry Brigades received that message loud and clear.

[Karlito]

Did your deployed brigades actually change? Wow

[E. Albright]

Oh. No, they didn't; just the formation template, so I guess it was moreso my Staff Council receiving the message. Did you do Rename All" or just Rename? I'll try doing a Rename All on them now... and it didn't change their names. I wonder if that's because they all got individual custom names before the option to rename them in the Formation Report got added? Anyway, it'll be interesting/disturbing to see if I've now changed someone else's active formation names...

[Karlito]

Did someone deliberately rename the mechanized infantry "motorized infantry"? 

[E. Albright]

*I* did not. I renamed the Hey, it's ya boi Karlito!/Light Infantry formation, but nothing else - so either it's completely jumbling names or someone else is up to shenanigans.

[Il Palazzo]

Not me.

Also, diplomacy is out of order again.

[E. Albright]

Still no diplomacy. Plus, I found the trogs' skinnier, angrier cousins:
