naval support bug (v1.52)

[ZippyRiver]

I have noticed a number of times my military support costs go down when moving naval units across oceanic cultural borders (evident by the change in gold surplus +/-). It doesn't always happen and I think it's unit specific. I have not tried to nail it down yet as to which ships are affected. I think transports are the problem, and it includes units it's carrying. I move a loaded carrier out-border and the surplus goes down, but an escorted transport moving out and the net gold increased.

Anyone noticed this? I could not see where it was reported, but it might already be known. I figured the more eyes looking for this bug the better.

I really need to get my computer upgraded. It's just too time consuming to run all the variables of units/ships. Sometimes it takes the game 20-30 seconds just to cycle to the next unit. makes it hard to squash bugs

I believe units cost more to support when outside your cultural borders, to represent supply issues. This is therefore probably working correctly.

But thats what I am saying. some of the naval units work in the opposite and net you more gold if they are outside your borders. I can make a couple of screenshots showing this, but it might be easier if you just keep an eye open for it. I am sure it's not something specific to my game copy.

I had moved a transport full of amphib infantry into open waters and my gold increased by 4. (iirc)

Sounds like something is working back to front then. It may only affect land units that are being transported by the sound of it.
