Re: Scrolling problem
 

I have had the same problem with scrolling, but I have to run on a coarser resolution (640x480) because my computer is slow.

I don't know of a way to search within a thread, other than by searching on [+"Short List" +whatever] (without the brackets) for the "Short List" thread. Doesn't work perfectly because people do change the subject as the thread progresses.

Re: Scrolling problem
 

Is there a bug with the "Wind Ride" spell? I have been trying to use it to grab my opponents immortal leaders and bring them to a province where they can be killed. I know where my opponents leaders are, I know there are no domes. Yet, I have cast the spell 6 times and have snagged 0 leaders. None of the leaders are large, none are earth mages. About half are ethereal.

Is this normal, or is this a bug?

Re: Scrolling problem
 

In the same scenario. . . I have been trying to spread my dominion to counter my opponents large collection of immortal leaders. My opponent has dom 10 and 3 temples, I have dom 8 and 4 temples. I have moved into a province adjacent to the edge of my dominion and built a temple and started to preach.

I have 15 level 1 priests and 5 level 2 priest preaching and I have a temple in the province. The starting dom of the province was -10. The way I understand the manual, each level 1 priest would have a 10% chance to raise the dom by 1 per turn, and the level 2 priests would each have a 40% chance. The temple would have an 80% chance of making a temple check and then would have a 40% chance of raising the dom in the province (for a total of 32%).

I mention all these probabilities because I have been preaching solidly for 4-5 turns and have not changed the dom by even 1 point.

The chance of this happening (discounting passive dom spread, which should have very little effect in this situation) is (0.90^15) * (0.60^5) * (0.68) = aprox 1% per month. The chance that this happens 4 or 5 turns in a row? Very small indeed.

I am wondering if there is some sort of bug with preaching? Or some bug with random number generation (I am using a mac which may make a difference)?

Re: Nevermind
 

I've got a big SP game going, primarily to test out late game functionality. I reached a point where every time I end the turn it CTD and gives me the error message:

dnf: bg area 0

Is this the battlefield bug with too many units? I haven't done any troubleshooting (saving the game, removing all actions but 1, ending turn) yet. Wanted to see if this was a known issue with a known fix.

Thanks, I'll try to attach the files, but don't know if they're working yet.

Master of the Iron Crutch
 

Dunno if it's a bug or WAD (as it's the way with most things in Dom3), but Li T'ieh-Kuai, the master of the Iron Crutch, doesn't get any improvement with Winged Shoes, his movement stays at 1/7.

Shift Key
 

Whenever I'm in windowed mode, the shift key is disabled. Is this a known, common, or unique to me problem? Or, is it a feature.

It's not worth browsing the forum for tips if I can't autocast my site searching spells.

Re: Shift Key
 

Check your CAPS lock on your keyboard.

Re: Shift Key
 

Oh, I've done that. And even using that, I can't seem to acess the shortcuts. Even while toggling between capslock on and off, I can't get any capital letters while renaming a unit unless im in fullscreen.

Known, but seemingly forgotten again and again.

Might be a problem with the SDL library, though ...
