Bug Bug or WAD? Armies refuse to move - Page 2

WraithLord · #1 December 9th, 2008, 11:45 AM

Hey, I get this error regularly in SP games. I have this huge Sauromatian army in Faerun adventure that absolutely refused to move to capture Fomoria capital for about 6-7 turns in a row!

The last turn it moved and I was mightily surprised that it finally did so. Note, that the army was not attacked in these said turns.

I don't backup SP games but next time I'll hit this I can raise the flag and send the files if needed.

Thanks RonD, that saves me the hassle to use the search function to find a game where this happened and was reported. Please email me the province numbers where the armies were supposed to start and where they were ordered to attack, so that I can verify it.

When I re-run the turn for Scenario2_backup, I see a battle in 18 (Ulm invaded with one commander and units). I can see that wasn't the case the first time the turn was run.

What happens if you re-run Scenario2_backup, Max?

I re-runed the turn too. No battle occured in #18 and the commander moved normally. Maybe the bug relys on other player's action or some special factor like random events.

I haven't tried, but presumably I'd get a different outcome. (The random seed is not deterministic relative to prior turns.) That's what usually happens when you run a turn multiple times, anyway.
