Using Vortex while units are subject to an Implode causes them to get stuck

Age of Mythology: Retold Report a Bug

  • Game Version: Latest

  • Build Number: Latest

  • Platform: Unknown

  • Operating System: Unknown

Issue:

Seen in a recent cast by IamBoit of a game between KeeN_Sevro and Miniyeti67, both playing Kronos. Sevro cast Implode, Yeti cast Vortex to get his units out of it. They then got stuck and were unable to move. Eventually after an attack on the stuck units by Sevro, some but not all of the units got unstuck.

If you manually delete the units, their corpses stay stuck on the map for the rest of the game.

Rec of the game being casted

Oh, even worse: allegedly (though I did not confirm this myself) the deleted units kept taking up population space permanently.

Hey, I just did an experiment after reading this post, and it certainly has a bug. I wrote a post on Reddit.

20:48 in that video is where it begins.

The good thing is, watching this video seems to confirm that the population space issue is not real.

Oh cool, thanks!

I’ve been mostly off of Reddit since the API debacle 2 years ago. I hang out mostly on Lemmy these days.
