Dominions II Bug Thread

[Taqwus]

It's still possible to trigger a deterministic game crash (bad unit number) when running up against the game unit limit; perhaps only possible when using multi-unit summons ala Ivy King/Ogres, Mound Fiend/Reanimation.

Some Earth Attack-style replays do not play (NOP), although these do not crash the game anymore.

My Astrologer casts Gale Gate at the same time an enemy casts Mother Oak; there are 4 globals up. Next turn, I get the message ("A Global Enchantment for My "), and right afterwards "Your Enchantment as been..." overridden by what must be Mother Oak. Fine. The bug: My mage died. There is no message regarding it, nothing. Mage was not assassinated, was in a friendly castle with positive dominion and not diseased. I know it was he who died, since he had a unique Artifact on him (Tome of High Power), which is now reforgeable (I no longer possess it).

I'll throw in here that the blood spell "Reinvigoration" (sacrifice a slave to remove all fatigue) still does not work in 2.15. It's too bad, because blood slaves are fun to sacrifice in battle

I got this bug,
Error : Nagot gick fel

automelee: molesting the dead

What does this mean?

I have no idea - but it sure gave me a chuckle.

I seem to recall a similar post a long time ago. If it is the same case, one of the units in a battle is dead but hasn't been removed. I think that he was places inside castle walls then, and the 50-turn rule routed the attackers.

And if you hadn't heard it before, Något gick fel is Swedish (mother's toung for the Illwinter) and means "Something went wrong".

In a version 2.15 game, I attacked from a friendly province that remained in my control, yet a (very expensive) commander "died while retreating".

Is there a non-bug explanation for this?

[Turin]

Was it a flying commander? If it was, check if the provinces are actually connected by pressing the "8" key. If they aren´t connected, you can´t retreat there.

[RonD]

No, it could not fly, and it attacked from a province right next door (and officially connected).

Ugh - figured it out, and it has been reported before. It was an aquatic commander operating on land with ammy of fish.

Of course, it would be extremely cheezy of you to make use of this to try to beat me to resommuning it -

[ioticus]

I had a battle where it said the enemy routed and there was nothing left but my army but I didn't get the province. Has this happened to anyone else?
