I can't exit transport ship!!!

OK, I can get on my transport ship fine... but now it won't let me leave. I've even gone back to the harbour and can't disembark to my city...

I second this... How to unload troops?  X(

You get ship near she shore (real shore, not just coast line, the one that looks "lowered") , then select units the same way you do in city and then right click on shore.

It isn't working for me... I've tried a variety of shorelines as well as going straight back to my harbour where I should be able to offload since I was able to onload... It's broken... although not sure if this is a glitch for the match I was playing or every game...

It's not working for me. Whether I put the transport on the water square that has the lowered land portion, or on a water square adjacent to that point, the units will not disembark.

While we're at it, I ran into an 'interesting' bug with my transport in my last ever game.  I sent my transport back to port.  It wouldn't go back to port, by which I mean the sea square in front of the port.  It insisted on staying 2 squares away.  So I click it, it is selected as I see it in the UI, but there is no selection box around the ship.  I right click the square in front of the port.  The ship *warps* to another square, 3 squares away.  I click again, it warps somewhere else, close to the port but 2 squares away.  Ok, I give up.  A few turns later, I see the ship is off in the depths of the ocean, it just decided to go somewhere, on it's own.  I look to see if auto explore is on, of course it isn't.

That was the event that made me shelve it until patch 2.0.  There are just too many bugs to even play the game, quite honestly.  Good luck with it, devs.

I can't unload troops either. I thought it was like in a city, select unit and right click, or click on the small arrow above the unit circle but they both not work. Is there a disembark command or I am missing something in the interface.

I haven't tried it in 1.7, but as long as your transport is at a beach or a harbor, then yes, I think it's supposed to be like a city as you describe.  At least that's the way it worked in the beta and in the one 1.6 game I managed to complete.

I tried these as well(I have version 1.1 which I d/led, this is the latest I assume), and even pressed v but my sovereign and three heroes are trapped onboard so I guess I'll have to abort the game, too bad this wasn't fully developed and tested before releasing it, another rip-off, I'll be sure to put the word out about this company.

The whole transport ships deal is completely broken. Selecting a ship should bring up a disembark icon oir something like that to make it easier to eject your army.  Also teleporting out of a ship is a hoot. The ship comes with you. So then you have a landlocked army inside a ship - brilliant.  I have reported that bug before however I am unsure how to report bugs officially so I am not sure if any of the developers have seen that information.

You just need to make a post in the support section to report bugs. You can also submit logs in the case of a crash.

I have not tried with version 1.1. I remember that I successfully unloaded troops in the game I played. I could try it again to see how it works.

1.1 allowed me to unload troops fine (on beaches in the campaign never tried it in sandboxmode), but do note there is a restriction of the amount of troops that can get into a boat that isnt checked... If you cant get them out try selecting one unit inside the ship and right click him onto the beach.

 

ps. lol at the teleport bug
