Invisibility is bugged. No longer works properly for Shennong farms under prosperous seeds or Vanish god powers

Age of Mythology: Retold Report a Bug
1

  • Game Version: Standard / Premium / DLC ANY

  • Build Number: (In-game in Settings Menu)

  • Platform: Steam / Microsoft Store / Xbox / PlayStation

  • Operating System: Windows 11 / Windows 10 / Windows 8 / Windows 7 / Mac / Linux

Issue:

Invisibility not working as intended for shennong farms with prosperous seeds or Vanish god power

Trigger Event:

Make farms as shennong and use prosperous seeds on them. Put villagers on them. Then as the opponent, send a unit close to them. It will reveal the unit and you will be able to attack it, efectively making that part of the god power useless.

With vanish do similarly. Build units, use invisibility on them, send opponent units to where they are, or send the troops to your opponents base. Your opponent will be able to see the units, he wont be able to targer them, but can manually use AoE abilities on them knowing their location or just follow the troops until the effect vanishes.

I suspect they are now working like Leto eggs and its due to their change that this happened

Repro Steps:

  1. Use either god power for invisibility on you units
  2. Send enemy units close to the invisible units
  3. Invisible units are revealed to the opponent

That’s interesting. Previously stealthdetection existed in the files and was usable but excluded units invisible because of vanish.
Revealed by any units or only scout ones ?

For farms any unit that gets close enough will reveal the units hidden inside them, like aztec traps.

For vanish i had a kitsune on the army and the towers and tc when you go into the opponents base, so im not sure.

Might be the change to the spider egg indeed
