Event Card Bug

[Admiral Delabroglio]

Hello

I don't know if there is still any hope for this gem of a game, but I found a bug with the resolution of event cards.

England played the "Horse Artillery" card. Russia got only one, and not 2 , light artilleries upgraded to horse artillery. Russia had 2 light artilleries in different zones, but only one was upgraded. No other light artillery that I could see got improved. I suspect the Allied player gets 2 horse artilleries only if there are 2 light artilleries in the same region, possibly only in the same stack.

I suspect the same bug exists for skirmishers, although I could not check.

If you need, I have a save obtained with a lot of "save scumming", as my Son puts it, to show before and after the playing of the card.

Best regards, and still playing this beautiful game on a regular basis.

Glad that you are enjoying the game. I'll look at this issue and try to post a reply over the weekend.

I do know that the AI is happy to play the "upgrade" cards with only one candidate, but they should upgrade two if they are available. If you want to send me a saved game, that is very nice! You can use the email contact info at forcedmarchgames dot com if you want to.

Hello and thanks for the answer. I sent the files to mercenarius@forcedmarchgames.com, hopefully it will arrive

No such luck, did not get delivered. Should I use the "info" recipient ?

Best regards

Yes, please use "info" as the recipient. Thanks in advance for the saved games!

Checking the code shows what you had already observed: the AI will only upgrade one army with the Horse Artillery Card, so if there is only one eligible unit in an army, the card only upgrades a single unit. Now, this is a bug, of sorts, but it isn't a destructive one. I will put it on the list of "things to be improved" but I don't when we'll issue a new patch for the game. Eventually there will be another patch. I just don't know how soon that will be.

Thanks for reporting this! It's only natural that we want the game to be perfect. But, right now it isn't.
