[BUG] Actions bar disappears after fear

from Elemental Forums

Hi Guys,

I'm fighting against an Ashwake dragon. At the begining of the fight he casts fear.

My Heroes resist the spell and then it's my turn.

I can move the first hero but the action bar is gone including the pass button. 

To give the turn to next hero I have to use the "toggle auto play" button. After quickly turning autoplay on-off, the action bar is back at it's place.

Same thing happens during next fight with Delin.

I can provide a savegame with this issue.

Other issues I noticed during Delin fight:

Once in a while the fight simply hangs when it's the turn of one of the units controlled by computer.It looks as if the unit is under my control but I can't do anything. Happened 3 times twice when it was fire elementals turn and once when only Delin was left and it was his turn.

Loot quality and value varies greatly. I've killed it for about 15 times and I got all kinds of loot ranging from +1 atk ring to heart of delin + realy imba shield.

I can verify this happens to me as well.

The workaround is pressing the space bar if you want to pass, or "m" if you want to cast a spell, which is proably a bug in itself (if the condition "afraid" is supposed to make you loose your abilities)

Actually, FEAR is working as designed.  It's supposed to frighten the player into panic when nothing happens on the tactical battle screen so that we click the auto-play button at our own peril.

I don't think it's working as designed.

If the hero is feared why is it's turn and I can move it and/or attack targets in movement range?

i notice this happens also after Titan's Breath and other multi-turn spells.

Yeah, use the space bar to pass your turn when finished and it comes back after.  M for magic, probably S for skills.  It's not game breaking, like the Can't End Turn bug.
