Is it possible that you put some neutral nations within Allied convoys, when their Allied counterpart was already available in game? I.e. Danish ships instead of FreeDanish ones, by sticking to the nations in my previous example. |

I am sure I was careful to only use correct nations but i may have got some wrong. this file is very large so hard to review.
there are for sure some convoys who will have neutral ships and enemy ships - It was correct at the time and should still be correct now.
I do not think that there will be any allied (to germany) ships in a convoy as the escort etc will attack them.
So the sink allied ship bug should not be a issue for convoys
