Desert Raiders Ranged/Melee Toggle is broken by Incendiary Arrows technology

  • Build Number: 14.1.5602.0

  • Platform: Steam

  • Operating System: Windows 11

Issue:

Incendiary Arrows has a bugged effect on Desert Raiders

Trigger Event:

Upon researching Incendiary Arrows, Desert Raiders appear to remain toggled to their default melee mode, but automatically equip a bow and attack at range rather than melee. This appears to be “reset” by toggling to ranged mode and then melee, however, newly trained Desert Raiders also spawn with this glitch and therefore attack at range, while set to melee mode, until they are first toggled to ranged mode and then back to melee.

Repro Steps:

  1. Train Desert Raider
  2. Research Incendiary Arrows
  3. Observe as Desert Raider swaps weapons from sword to bow while still toggled to melee attack mode in the UI
  4. Train additional Desert Raider(s)
  5. Observe as newly trained Desert Raider(s) has ranged weapon equipped despite being toggled to melee mode
