Trigger Event: packing/unpacking building carts somehow trigger spawning of free units
See the game report on aoeworld: CuteKittie's Game – AoE4 World TL;DR golden horde player at ~15 minutes spawns 30, then 30, then 30 more keshiks for free. When reviewing the replay, you can this player packing/unpacking building carts he got from the age up to feudal.
(what was happening at the time of the issue. this could be an action you or another player took right before the issue started)
Repro Steps:
don’t care to reproduce myself, this is clearly an exploit and it is unfair. It is reproducible in every game that the player (golden horde palyer) has played on ladder.
1 - Deactivate building carts, no one was using that anyway before the bug.
2 - Instead of giving 2 carts + 1 for next age ups, give 300 wood + 150 wood for next age ups. Same effect in gameplay, without enabling the glitch.
Then they can take as long as they want to find a definitive fix for the problem.
Yes, they spent so many days on this issue, yet chose the most foolish solution.
There is actually another very simple fix: once players choose to deploy a building cart, the deployment should no longer be cancellable while it is in progress.
This would directly eliminate the possibility of exploiting the mechanic to generate free units.
