EDIT: Yes, in that case it's not WAD. If the groundpounders have forest survival, then it's a bug and may run afoul of something that checks that stackmove != flying, therefore does entire stack have forestsurvival and if not, then mapmove 1. I'll ask Johan about that.

A partholonian sorceress of mine (Fomori) got diseased. She was and is wearing a shroud of the battle saint, that gives her regeneration (N4E4D9 blessing). She is diseased alright, but her hitpoints aren't dropping at all, nor is she getting new afflictions.

I find all the fun bugs! :D

This is from the game that ChrisPedersen sent in because of the movement bug. IIRC, both of these were summoned last turn, so they weren't pre-existing, they were created like this.


(EDIT - Just to clarify, the Kokythiad whould be 3W3D, and the Spectre should have 1D + 2x100%WESD.)

This is a known issue and there isn't anything that can be done about it. The game you are in has hit the commander limit or is close to it, so whenever new commanders are recruited or summoned, they get the unique ID of some other commander who died on the same turn and since the ID is immediately put to use again, it isn't sitting idle for one or more turns and doesn't therefore get reset. So looks like the spectral mage got the ID of a basic priest or some other H1 unit and the Kokythiad seems like having the ID of a Sidhe Champion.

This problem was far greater with Dominions 2 with the lower unit and commander limits, but the limits for Dom3 are somewhere in the vicinity of 150k units and 9k commanders after the last patch before this problem crops up.

Grrr...

I'm still losing the commander windows when playing my MP games, and support hasn't looked at my ticket in over a week.

Does this happen to anyone else??!?

I load the game, and everything comes up fine, but after issuing a couple of commands the commander windows disappear and I can't get them back. I can cycle using 'n' but can't see the commander other than through 't', which doesn't help that much :p

I have to repeatedly exit dom3 and restart it (which fortunately doesn't take too long, but still...) eventually the windows stick.

I rarely see this happen in my SP test games fwiw...

This happened to me a few times in 3.17. Hasn't happened after upgrading to 3.20.
But it is happening in 3.20 to a player in a game I'm hosting.

I could provide the save files for that game if it would help? Can also ask him to do a debugmode log.

Would be nice to get this fixed, since it plays merry hell with actually getting any playing done if someone is suffering from this every 1.5 games or so.

Then that someone should come forth on their own, create a support ticket and maybe give some details as to where they got the game. People who have that precise problem generally get zero or negative sympathy on the forums for a good reason and if you dig around, you may even find the reason why.

Recently switched PCs to one with Vista. Most of my games worked fine after a little tinkering, and Dominions 3 runs fine in and of itself. The issue? Mods. I can't seem to activate them. Up to date patches..so what could be the issue?

Found a new (or existing for a long time?) bug. When castle is under siege, you can cancel any unfinished unit production and get the money back. But when you save the game by hitting end turn or save and quit, the unit production is reinstated but the gold remains. This will trigger cheat detection when the turn hosts.

I should have read the short list more carefully. The bug was reported. :(
