Hello. I just realized that some of my ports or airports have at new game start, no units reserved inside. The other work well. What is the reason of this?

I would imagine it is as simple as not every airport and port on the map had a military function to it. Seems like BG did their best to add real world locations, so you will have many such facilities with no reserves. (best guess)

Why do you ask?

Units are not preset to a location. When the game is cached, units contained in orbat files are distributed to all barracks, ports and airports of the region or group-region. That was my initial condition too. But now some ports and airports of more than one countries are empty and all units are distributed to the rest. I play edited (by myself) version of the game and this happened after years of almost everyday modding. What reason can cause this bug? How can I debug it? Perhaps it is my fault. But what error could lead to this? I checked the OOF data of these cities and they seem ok.

They can be by setting the x,y in the orbats.

They can, but in the standard scenario the orbats have empty value in x, y variable. Thus, units must be equally distributed.
