[0.295][Bug][Graphic or Data] Left clicking 'spawns' special tiles on empty spaces!!

March 19, 2010 7:22 AM from

It happened on a 'just started' fresh new game.

I clicked on an empty space of a map, and a special tile appeared on it.

Surprised, I clicked on an empty space right to this space, another special tile appeared.

Amazed, I did this one more time - another special tile appeared.

Now believing this was a bug, I switched to Jing and made a capture.

When I alt-tabbed back to Elemental, the bug didn't repeat itself. I still cannot know if this is a graphic bug (existing invisible tile that appeared on clicking on it) or a starting game bug, but three tiles in a row (and so close to each other) seems odd.

I have also uploaded the dumpfile (below) for this thing.

It is a sight issue with your SOV. Had you moved your SOV, they would have appeared. Seems it takes a turn or some visual change, like a click, to have them appear.

You can replicate if you start a new game, then select your SOV and move 2 tiles. Stuff will appear that wasn't in the non-FOW area before.

FOW is still a work in progress and this is one example.
