OKAY! Let’s see what we can do with this list! First, a few notes:
- Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to start or contribute to a separate discussion thread with details about the problem. Your efforts are invaluable in identifying and fixing bugs, and your time and effort is MOST appreciated!
- Thanks to @Harooooo1 for compiling the thread! Having a priority list of issues is helpful in making sure we know what’s important to you.
- If anything ISN’T on track to be fixed, it’s likely missing context. When you come across an issue, explaining exactly when, why, and how it happens is CRITICAL to our ability to reproduce and fix the issue. If we can’t reproduce a problem ourselves, it’s MUCH more difficult to identify and implement a solution—particularly if it only impacts a small subset of players.
I’ve spent the last day going over all the issues and vetting them against our database of issues. Here are the brief results of that investigation:
FIXES IN THE WORKS
These are issues which are “solved” internally and have a fix in the works. They may still need to undergo extensive testing before they are committed to a game build, but we are looking to fix some of the most severe issues as soon as we’re able!
Coustillier charge damage is done twice to CA armor class (to all Archers it seems, not just CA)
Number of crashes increased since January DLC patch
Out of Sync started happening since January DLC patch
Diagonal gates can’t be built upon by a villager, from some specific angles
Possible to place and build a Castle foundation inside another Castle’s foundation if that Castle’s foundation is out of sight - Video
Building town center over existing foundation that is out of LOS (same thing as above but for Town Centers, seems to happen to all larger building foundations)
Korean Turtle Ships damage is way off/random
Update 44725 achievement bug
Techtree shows wrong unit names & tooltips (Genoese xbow written as War Wagon
[MERGED] Health Points not showing properly in tech tree
Watching replay of Gajah Mada mission 2 desyncs the replay at 3:15 every time
Defeated Players can Ungarrison Units in DE
INVESTIGATING or WRITTEN UP FOR INVESTIGATION
These are issues that have tracking tasks written up, but which may still require investigation. These may still require more information or may not be an issue
Too much units with AI pathing causes lag - #5 by thieftdp8498
@thieftdp8498 has provided a lot of valuable information in the linked discussion thread. These details have been passed along to the team, who have not been able to reproduce this internally (thus far).
Skirmishers don’t provide extra arrows when garrisoned (due to new Mayan UT and legacy bug of chu ko nus and kipchak giving too low dmg to garrisoned building)
The description of how the damage is calculated (and affects different units) is INCREDIBLY useful! All of this has been added to our internal tracking task.
Shift-move after shift-attack is bugged
After using “Attack move” command, units sometimes bug out and stop fighting (will make report soon)
Random civ not working as advertised - can give duplicate civilization in ranked
[BUG] Font doesn’t look very good, even at big UI (125%). And pixel artifacts throughout the game
Game won’t stop re-subscribing to and activating event mods
Restore function shows wrong civ for every non-ai player + inactive AI
Campaign: Bari - Mission 4 - Relics Stuck in Mountains
In-game chat not visible for spectating live games (will make report if no one did yet)
This is a long-standing ask. For now, it should be considered “by design," but the desire is well-noted!
Your units instantly disappear if you try garrisoning into an enemy battering ram in Treaty Mode
Tatar sheeps from new bonus don’t spawn in Campaigns or custom Scenarios
tech tree says Bulgarian 50% stone discount on Town Centers starts in castle age, but in gameplay the discount works in Dark Age too
Lobby browser resets filters when switching to Spectate Games browser
Hotkey doesn’t work for the King’s Follow command(regicide)
Monks tasked to a relic stops moving after right clicking to a random location (legacy bug)
Castle/Town Center/Krepost/Harbor/Donjon losing attack focus after creating unit (legacy bug)
Blast attack levels not working as intended for modding
Resource 210 (Reveal Relics) not firing after the start of the game
Mod doesn’t update version when joining lobby
The pierce armor in the Scenario Editor shows the value of the unit’s melee armor
Map Editor: Set player visibility not working for P1
Lots of crashing while using Layering mode in Scenario Editor
Water in scenario editor doesn’t render properly
[BUG] [Scenario Editor] Modify Attribute Effect not removing visual glow from heroes/not adding visual glow to units
Map displaying completely black ground under units and buildings when a unit or building is selected to move in editor mode
XS script does not accept non-ASCII chars in strings
Game crashes and becomes slower if replace a normal soldier with an [Invisible Object] in Editor
Game crashes when tried to crazily click at “Delete Trigger” button to delete some triggers
BY DESIGN
When a unit is unable to reach their construction project or comes under attack, they will turn to defend themselves. While there may be an issue here, we will need to find a balance between the indended design of the game and
Technology hotkeys at the 2nd Dock page are bugged and don’t work if using them from the 1st page
If we allow this, then we could have two techs on two different pages using the same hotkey, which would probably cause more confusion. Unless you feel strongly about this and have an optimal solution, this is unlikely to change.
Elite Steppe Lancer and Elite Battle Elephant Research icons overlap
According to the team, there is unfortunately no slot where one of the upgrade buttons could be moved: slot 13 used by Tarkans in scenario full tech tree games as Huns, and the fifth column is reserved for operation buttons. As such, it was decided to leave them on the same slot, since it doesn’t stop the research of both upgrades if there are more than one stable.
NEEDS MORE INFORMATION
There isn’t enough information for me to understand or write up the issue. If there is not an active thread, it may be wise to create a new thread while linking the old discussion on the topic.
Villagers still bump into each other
Without the context provided by a replay file or a link to more discussion and information, there’s not much we can do based on the report alone! We’d absolutely love to hear more about when and where this is happening.
Spectating recorded games can desync when turning on fog of war
As with above, this will require additional details to narrow down the cause. While the team is investigating reports of out-of-sync errors when spectating a game or reviewing a recording, more specific information will help them as they dig into the issue.
Defensive building still prioritize enemy buildings over units! (not quite sure if it’s still occurring or not, need to check)
Re-opened our tracking task for investigation. Certainly keep us updated with more details where possible so we can fully understand the behavior being experienced. (Replay files and videos are especially helpful!)
Ticket has been written up for investigation, but may require more information to highlight the severity of the issue. If this impacts anyone’s gameplay, I recommend they weigh into the thread linked above!
Two players can be assigned the same color in lobby games, and they will not be in CO OP mode
There have been several reports of this issue, but no reliable repro internally. Until we can determine when and why this is happening, we’ll have trouble fixing it. (Replay files, player names, match ID’s, and other details may be useful.)
A task has been open for some time, but the issue is not easily reproducible for our team. Replay and dxdiag files would be most helpful in seeing whether this is an issue with the game, or how the game interacts with certain hardware.
Test is unable to reproduce the issue. This is likely hardware related, so any future reports should include a copy of the player’s dxdiag file and a video highlighting the issue and steps leading up to it.
Description of Byzantine Fire Ship attack speed bonus was incorrectly changed
Is this still the case?
Saves/Replays menu can sometimes take a lot of time to load, and sometimes displays wrong civs (will make bug report if no one did yet)
Need more information if this is the case. Note that the Civ display issue is already logged separately.
Bug: In-game score panel is collapsed after watching recorded game
Unable to reproduce in the latest builds. Additional information / video evidence will help us better understand what is being reported.
Name changed to “SinglePlayer” after resigning and restarting
Is this still the case?
Lobby browser doesn’t show all the hosted games, and the search is slow/unresponsive (will make bug report)
More information is better! This is something that is well-known, and improvements are always being made to improve the experience.
Villagers chased by boars will stop and fight if tasked to a different resource (legacy bug)
Is this still the case? Several improvements have been made in previous builds, so an updated report with examples would be most welcome!
Resource 210 (Reveal Relics) reveals the whole line of sight instead of just the unit
Additional information requested by the team.
Could use additional information to clarify the issue for the team.
Is this still an issue, or did the workaround offered by @ShadowProsPL address the issue?
TBD
These issues need additional investigation, or it needs to be clarify the design intent of the reference behavior:
Modding the pop limit over 500 doesn’t work in Standard Games
Secondary projectiles behave weirdly when accuracy of a unit is set to 0%
