[Bug] bows cause game to hang for 45 seconds during combat occasionally

not every time you fire a bow does this happen. I've speculated it has to do with firing the bow at enemies behind obstacles maybe? game basically stops. you can scroll around and read unit descriptions but no actions. then about 45 seconds later your target takes damage or he does the dodging animation combat continues as normal from that point. for me it can happen 2-3 times a fight I use alot of archers. I use a custom faction created in the faction creator with a custom leader the race is wraiths. not tested on crossbows yet

This sounds similar to a problem that Derek had due to an inadvertent double right mouse click, or perhaps it was handling one right mouse click like it was a double.  Anyway, check the .51 change log in the LH support forum, I think you'll see a fix listed there.

Moving before you fire fixes it for some reason.  Also, sometimes the ranged unit will move on its own before firing.
