Like this?

Lingchih - give the attached mod a brief test to make sure it fixes the issue.

If so, lch, could you replace the mod on the server with this one? I suppose that everyone should do likewise, although I don't think it'll make a difference if you don't.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

That did not appear to fix the problem. The Hydras with two heads still just have two heads.

It's not a huge deal... if it is known bug on the shortlist, and will be too difficult for us to patch here. I can play through it. I just weakens some of my strongest, most expensive troops by quite a bit. At least they stay sacred now.

Lingchih,

How did you test it? You won't be able to see the results in our current game until a turn is processed with the new mod.

You will need to create a SP test game with Pythium to test the changes before a turn is processed with the mod that Dr. P has made.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Oh, sorry, I did not realize that. I'll make a test game now.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Lingchih,

Give it a go. I noticed the same issue with Sauromatia as well btw, so if it is going to go on the hot list, we may want to get it verified so it can be fixed for all nations as I think Sauromatia and MA Pythium use different hydras than LA Pythium.

If it works in the single player game, and I imagine it should as I think the issue was a missing #firstshape command or two, then the next step will be for the server to be patched with the change. Then you should see the desired effect on your in game hydras. Of course I hope to have your hydras killed before then http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/wink.gif.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

OK, great. It appears to be fixed. I watched several battle where there were Hydras with only two heads at the end of the battle, but in looking at them after the battle, all of them had all of their heads.

Thanks very much, Dr.P and Foodstamp.

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

Quickfix is installed on the server now. I dunno if I have to reset it, but I'm doing so right now to be on the safe side.

Ahh... the inevitable showdown between o.O. and Doctor Death looms. Ranking number 1 an number 2 in the Hall of Fame, these two fearsome Princes of Death have never met. But the oracles say that soon they shall meet, and only one will fly away (or limp away, as the case may be).

Re: Late Era Team Game
 

I witnessed Atlantis's Prince of death nearly die. Atlantis is foolish.
