Probably fixed but since Brad's version of the .exe was not Public I did not post issue this but I have encountered this BUG in the version.

When killed, the dead Champs/Hires are not removed from the unit List on the Left sidebar and if clicked on, the camera takes the players view out, seemingly randomly on the map, into the FOW.

I will assume that has been corrected? If not please have a look see as the Left side list needs to be kept as clear as possible so that all Cities/characters can be seen and clicked on as the game progresses.

What was added in 1.1d and we removed is that instead of waiting for level 5 monsters to spawn a level 5 monster (like a corpse spider) the game could spawn a level 1 version of a corpse spider at spawn level 1.  Which is an interesting idea but the base stats of the monsters aren't made for that since we had never considered that option (a level 1 corpse spider is still a lot closer to a level 5 monster than a level 1 monster).

So if we wanted to have that as an option we would need to rebalance all the monsters so that their level X versions more correctly modeled that level, instead of the creature.

Personally I don't like having monsters at every level because overall it makes the monster less interesting.  I don't want to see the mid to late game monsters in the early game because then it isn't as cool when you see them in the late game.

The real fix for me is to make sure you see those monsters in the late game (sometimes they never show up or they are way to late) which is the issue I want to address.

Maybe tie level of monsters to a non-gameable formula somehow?

My idea: Spawn Level should be a function of habited map percentage (what % of the map is under influence), world population,  techs researched , world difficulty and a random factor.  Other factors could be added in expansions.  This would be checked every x number of turns, and those messages would be given when the monster lvl increases.

we have a bunch of ideas for adjusting the way the world spawn rating goes up and it absolutely will be addressed in a future patch, just not something that can slide in in a stability patch like 1.11

Long ago, there was talk about the Setup options being pages long. Starting with a simple toggle between basic and advanced world settings seems like a very good way to make the complexity available for those of us who want it without forcing it on folks who just want to get a game started quickly.

How about spawning all monsters from the start and simply placing the low-leveled monsters around the coast while allowing higher-leveled monsters to inhabit the deeper interior of each land mass (the further inland you go, the tougher the monsters become, the bigger the loot).

That way players get a continued sense of discovery instead of just watching new stuff popup all over the map in places they've already been.

Something to look forward to with regard to 1.2 then, pleased to see its finally being addressed!

Keep up the great work.

Did this patch fix the problem in the custom Sov created that did not have Organized in it?  I believe that's the Talent that allows the army to move at the speed of the Sov.

I see.  It seemed as though some of the non-custom Sovs still have it. 

Sounds good. Downloading now.

Well done Stardock.

Something that I noticed in a couple plays now (other than the unfortunate OOM), is that the archery lag bug has come back. If you put a hero on a horse or warg and fire a bow, there is a considerable lag after the shot hits and when you can take your next action.

As a future idea, would it be possible to say fire one archer, and then already be clicking on the next one and ordering it to fire without having to wait for the arrow to fly across the screen and land? It would save a load of time
