Abandon and Veterancy bug

Ever wondered why the pack howitzer would sometimes turn into a vehicle driving around or when your flak HT refused to fire after some time?
Well since I've been using the Flak HT a lot now I noticed it refusing to shoot after it hit vet 2 and got abandoned earlier on in the game. Since i made that vet guide earlier on I noticed it affected all units that get new weapons.
It has to do with some units getting different weapons instead of getting modifiers the way units normally get vet bonuses. Think of stuff like faster setup or better AA capabilities like the ostwind. If your unit changes weapons and then gets abandoned it will be unable to fire when it hits the same vet level after being recrewed.

I tested these units
-Flak HT
-Pack Howitzer
-Ostwind

But I think the luchs and usf atgun also get new weapons with veterancy.

Fix
I tried some stuff myself with adding some requirement actions and some actions that run when theh unit dies but its mostly a hack job adn didnt work :(

There is still a grenade bug in the game. Riflemen dont like using AT nades or smokes. Fusilier AT nade also fails like the riflemen AT nade.
But i dont think it only applies to riflemen. I told a shock squad to throw a grenade at a house, and Dimitri held the grenade close to his ear as if he was listening to the ocean from a sea shell. Anyways, i cancelled the move and told it to throw the grenade again and Dimitri did the same thing. Only until i told the squad to move 5 feet to the left did Dimitri throw the grenade.

Also, you have confirmed that there is a bug with the pack howitzer that makes it a vehicle if a past vet 2 pack is recrewed. Amazingly, reinforcing it and destroying the weapon as well as critting the weapon gets you a squad of useless entities that think they have a disabled weapon of a weapon they are no longer crewing. I wonder how that works...

i'm quite sure the grenade issues are separate so let's try and keep it out of this thread (unless anyone finds evidence they're related) and bump this until we get a developer response.

Normally when the weapon of a support team is destroyed they get the order to retreat to the out of bounds area, but since the weapons is seen as a vehicle they don't get that order I think.

Its for example easy to mod so that the squad stays on teh field when the support weapon is destroyed

Through observation, I'll just add that its directly connected to stuart ability bug where it can perma stun.

The same thing happens here.
