I can't seem to get an independent carrier force to show up in any battle. I have two CVs and one CVE. I've tried having them in one division set to independent, in two divisions where one cores on the other and the lead set to independent, in no divisions at all, and supporting a line division (BB or BC). I have the tech for independent carrier force. I have never seen an independent carrier force or a carrier division core or support on another carrier division. They always show up on support orders for the Battle Force flag division, and sometimes shuffle their division editor assignments around even when all three ships appear.
Is this a known issue? I have seen some other players mention something similar. Happy to zip a save if it's helpful.

What is the year?
In history, it took time that was recognized to split carriers into separate force and up to that time they are part of main force. To have a separate carrier force, you need to invent "carrier force" from "fleet tactics" branch.

I've got Carrier Force plus 11 later techs in Fleet Tactics including Circular AA screen.

Maybe it is related to the scenario type? I just rolled a Carrier Battle where I have an independent carrier force now. I think most other battles I've fought have been cruiser actions or convoy defenses. Is carrier force not eligible for those battle types? I think I've seen them in convoy battles in RTW2 but I could be misremembering.
