Similar to your other question/report, @stancollins, this looks rather like understanding how game controls/UI works. Those things might seem wonky to new players. Please join the Discord so that more people could help you. Also, it’s hard to provide commentary without screenshots of your situation.
Quick rule clarification please.

Beamdog Online version 3.0 ranked game.
Haven’t played in a while just double checkingRd one pearl harbor push with japan.
Defender aircraft carrier takes first hit fighter does not get hit.
I retreat with the expectation that the fighter will crash into the sea without a place to land. It lands on Hawaii instead.
I thought defending fighters on carriers crashed without carrier to land on?I m 2 rounds out from a major naval battle off the coast of Japan. If the fighters on carriers will automatically land on Japan. I ll change my defensive profile to take hits on carriers before fighters. But if it’s a glitch or something I don’t want all my fighters going down into the sea without a place to land.

@genericgeneral said in Quick rule clarification please.:

I thought defending fighters on carriers crashed without carrier to land on?No. I have no clue how close to the boardgame rules the Beamdog variant currently is, but here it seems to follow the OOB rules:
A fighter based on a defending carrier must land on the same carrier if possible after the battle. If that carrier is destroyed in combat, it must try to land elsewhere. It must land on a different friendly carrier in the same sea zone, move 1 space to a friendly territory, island, or aircraft carrier, or be destroyed.
(Rulebook, page 26) -
@Panther thank you very much.

Correctly, when a defending carrier is destroyed and a fighter survives, the fighter may move up to 1 space to land. If it cannot land, it is destroyed. 1942 Online does not allow you to designate which territory is landed in, e.g. if a German carrier in sea zone 5 is destroyed, German fighter(s) may land on Finland, Norway, Berlin, or elsewhere according to 1942 Online’s handling.
