I'm seeing an odd bug with the 2.13 patch.

If I tab out then tab back in, occasionally the rendering layer corresponding to all the ui (meaning non-map) elements seems to be referencing the wrong textures. It's odd in that it seems to be timing related. If I just tab out/in quickly it never seems to occur, however if I stay out for a while (I don't know maybe 5 minutes?), it seems to be quite consistent (perhaps 100% repeatable with enough time).

I've uninstalled/reinstalled, and this is still occurring.

Does it have some letters and sky-like pictures? If yes, then it is an old one that (I think) is much more rare with one of the previous patches but still happens occassionally.

No, I've seen that one before and this one is different.

Actually, though I may have posted too soon. I've just done a hard boot, and haven't seen it since. I should know better than to post a bug before rebooting.

Hmmmm, reboot didn't solve the problem - it still happens, although I'm not yet sure how to make it reoccur.

Thanks for the nice bug screenshots. They make squashing bugs more enjoyable [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/icon04.gif[/img] . It did give a new and refreshing look to the game though.

I just noticed a bug (which I have no idea how long has been in the game):

If you've saved mage commander orders (5 mage spells) via the CTRL-0 to 9 keys, you can issue those orders to a priest! The game apparently fails to check for the validity of spells assigned via the shortcut method, unlike if you'd tried to assign such spells one by one directly.

You are able to assign saved orders to any commander and they are just simply ignored in combat... defaults to stay behind troops?
