Default Re: Bug:Turn and view battle result not the same

You are of course correct, but it seems largely a matter of semantics.

From one point of view a bug is the set of symptoms, since that's all you can see from the outside. A particular reported "bug" may result from more than one problem in the code. And a problem in the code may result in multiple apparently unrelated symptoms. Without finding a code problem and testing, you really can't tell.

I was speaking in terms of the symptoms, since that's what the users report and since patch levels and operating systems are always suggested as the source of the problem.

As for it being "completely different", it may be, but if this really is new in 3.10, the first place I'd look is in the fix to the old bug.
