Help- Recuiting Bug?

[poisson_bete]

I didn't know that bug, but this is different. I take care not to drive the resources negative. Some more information- the issue comes up most frequently when I'm recruiting woodsmen- the archer type. I think they're 10 gold and 3 resources, so I can queue up about 6 or 7 usually in the province without going negative. I mostly play abyssians, and the woodsmen are a good missile unit since I can't make any.

The other night I was recruiting in 4 provinces, 2 castled, 2 not. My home province was doing fine, as was an Onyx amazon one. The woodsman province wasn't recruiting, neither was another random province I built a castle on.

In your case Argitoth, we state the obvious.

If you don't like it, perhaps you should not read the post?

Of course if every post was as informative as one of yours with the same whiny undertone. It'd be hard to not treat you as a troll instead of a newb.

It may be that you were recruiting a commander that required resources then units. The game recruits commanders first, then units. So if you for example, make a Commander taking up 20 resources and that province only makes 22 Resources, and you had 5 woodsman recruting as well. It will recruit the commander first, then the woodsman.

Or alternatively it could be an issue with unrest, as Gandalf stated. As for anything else, I have no idea. If you want you can send a copy of your same game file to info@illwinter dot com and they can look at it if you think it is a legitimate bug.

I'll check the unrest issue, I didn't know about that. If that's not it, I'll send in the saved game. Thanks.

I was defending poisson_bete from being called a newb, that's all.

I don't believe anyone called him a newb. I believe he asked for thoughts, suggestions, or advice. The logical deduction goes from the simpilist solution to the most complex.

If you can't figure out why your computer won't turn on you don't take it apart first, unscrew your motherboard and check all of it's jumpers. You check the plug first, then move from there.

It amazes me how you get through life sometimes.
