When: 1900
Who: France
Not default?: Large Fleets, Historical, Manual legacy build
This is a more passive bug I've noticed through my whole playthrough, especially when carriers came into play. Unfortunately I didn't have the presence of mind to screenshot more than I can show you here.
The general idea is that no Sea zone on the force comparison map mode actually correctly displays tonnage, Especially during peacetime. I've had moments where the enemy had about a 10% boost on me in tonnage, and yet the game displayed them as having more than 10x my forces. On the reverse side, I've had times where I knew I had significantly less in the area than them and yet the comparison bars showed next to nothing on their side. Of course, the more detailed ship count that actually shows up when I mouse over the area is a little more accurate.
For example:
I'm currently at war with Italy, and force comparisons in the med are:
France: 3 CV, 4CVL, 2DD, 5KE for a total of 154,700 tons
Italy: (estimate based on mouse-over and comparison with Almanac) 2 BC, 1CV, 1CVL, 1CA, 4DD, 35KE for a total of 154,500 tons.
Even if we take away the ships I have on TP, I'm still only 2000 tons below them, and I don't wanna count how many tons italy may have on TP if we balance that one. None of my carriers are damaged or in drydock at the moment either, so it's not like they're being subtracted for that. Carriers just don't appear to count towards tonnage in an area, forcing me to build yet more BBs and BCs I can't afford for fear of being blockaded.
