It happened to husksuppe also, very annoying 12:05~ bersek start building a house and left before finish

This must be a high priority bug fix! Streamers suffering it during lives is horrible for the game’s image. Imagine how players (me included) are getting pissed off by it… damn!!

This bug has been lingering since retold release and it did get a little better with patches but was never 100% fixed.

Now it returned with full force after the last patch. It’s happening with all pantheons but it even more noticeable with norse when we order to build and shift queue commands to move, it also happened with egypt pharaoh empowering a building foundation in one of my games.

This is a big gameplay bug and should be looked at with high priority imo.

how many times i’ve heard that

is not a latency problem with the server bug?

No, no. You can reproduce it by ordering a berserk to build a house and shift clicking him a few times to move after building it. You’ll notice he will just stop building to move.

I think this is now a top-priority issue because combined tasks are used throughout the entire game

It’s no longer a random Shift bug. It’s now easily reproducible.

As Cabral mentioned, this is even visible on major streamers’ live streams. It’s the game’s showcase.

oh its true. Wow this is like nerfing norse. Its like the pegasus bug, pegasus cannot patrol without stopping patrolling when a unit is at its sight, unless dont attack position is activated, thats a unintentional nerf for greeks

something very similar happens to click compulsive players like me, norse builders and aztecs priest stop building (all militar builders) players give the order twice to build the same building they’re already constructing, and that’s when they stop. Curiously, it only happens when there are 4 to 7 military constructors.

Apparently the pegasus patrol bug got fixed in the last patch notes, at least it’s what they say in patch notes. But yeah this shift bug is really bad for gameplay.

nice, thanks finally it got fixed

No, it’s not fixed.

It’s normal set second task after construct something, it’s very annoyng can’t do that

It’s not about being click-compulsive. High APM is completely normal in competitive play, so players constantly click and queue commands with Shift. If that sequence is causing bugs, it’s an issue with the game handling a very common gameplay pattern, not with how players are using the controls.

We were talking about the pegasus patrol bug, that one was indeed fixed in one of the last few patches.
