Troops will not generate after saving skirmish

After saving single player skirmish match, troops will not generate. Anything that was queued BEFORE the save will complete, but nothing new. Troops just sit in a queued state and never build. The max unit limit has not been reached… just no more troops creating. Can’t play. Must have been related to the most recent patch. This has happened now with the last 2 games I played. After starting up the saved match, the entire game would completely crash… at least on the first of the 2 games that had this problem. The second game didn’t crash, but it still wouldn’t generate new troops.

I am experiencing the same. Kind of a big deal to me since I play skirmishes a lot in 30 minutes breaks I do sometimes when studying or doing sthg else

Good… at least I know it’s not just me. Let’s see how long it takes to get fixed. I can’t really play until this is resolved. Thanks for replying

i have been having the same issue, really frustrating especially if you get as involved with skirmish mode as i do XD. i find as a temp work around delete the buildings and rebuild them that fixes most of it for me, if its an age up building however it becomes obsolete as you cant delete them

Tengo el mismo problema. Solo con tropas o artefactos belicos. Si guardo una escaramuza y està produciendo tropas, al volver queda “congelada” la producciòn. Imposible continuar el juego

Same problem here! And this bug was reported nearly two full months ago and it’s still not fixed. Super disappointing b/c it’s a total showstopper.

Seems a hotfix was released on July 12th but the release notes do not mention a fix for this particular bug. Has anyone tried again recently?

Someone posted a workaround :
Rebuild your military buildings and it will work again.

Yes, I am aware. It is still a blow in the user experience

I do agree with that. And I am very sure they are working on a fix , but for that they need time…
The issue is clear, but where the bug is… well save games are usually a engine wise fix, so this could take some good time to fix it :frowning:

Same issue here. Not great at all.

Seems devs acknowledged the issue and are tracking it now. They suggest not to research the Military Academy technology for now. I haven’t tried this so far, but that would be a better workaround than deleting and rebuilding all military buildings

Confirming we are aware of this issue.
Thanks so much for your patience as we continue to work through it and get it resolved.
