ISSUE EXPERIENCED
DESCRIBE THE ISSUE IN DETAIL (below). LIMIT TO ONE BUG PER THREAD.
AI musketeers will always chase cavalry around in melee mode. Given that it is impossible for them to catch cavalry, they basically will just die to other attacks in the meantime. They will not attack anything else till cavalry leaves their sight.
It is therefore very easy to lure them with cavalry and then use light infantry to shoot them down as they are moving around brainlessly in hand mode after the cavalry they will never catch. See image and recording below. I show a picture of AI Maigadi chasing hussars while my longbowmen do quick work of them.
It is MUCH BETTER for them TO SHOOT AT THE CAVALRY IN THIS SITUATION, instead of dealing no damage and dying in the process.
FREQUENCY OF ISSUE
How often does the issue occur? CHOSE ONE; DELETE THE REST!
- 100% of the time / matches I play (ALWAYS)
REPRODUCTION STEPS
List CLEAR and DETAILED STEPS we can take to reproduce the issue ourselves… Be descriptive!
Here’s the steps to reproduce the issue:
- Attack enemy musketeer units with Cavalry and other things.
- Watch as the muskets get into hand mode to attack cavalry.
- They will chase cavalry around and not attack anything else…
EXPECTED RESULT
What was SUPPOSED to happen if the bug you encountered were not present?
Idk what should happen - but when cavalry is fleeing from a fight, the other soldiers must be killed before running after the horsies.
IMAGE
ALWAYS attach a PICTURE (.jpg, .png, .gif) or VIDEO (.mp4, YouTube link) that highlights the problem.
These Maigadis are running after hussars, instead of killing my longbows.
