[v1.1 Beta][Bug]Hero with Rain of Arrows causes delay in completion of Auto-Resolve battles

from Elemental Forums

I've noticed that whenever my sovereign picks up Rain of Arrows, all the sudden auto-resolving battles suddenly gets a delay.  You'll see the animation for the battle, but then have to wait about 5-10 seconds or more for the actual results screen to show up.  Prior to my sovereign getting Rain of Arrows there was no problem.

I wasnt able to reproduce this.  Maybe something else is causing the delay.  If you can link your save game I can test it out.

I have seen this same phenom, but I never ever use assassins, so rain of arrows is probably not the cause.

I'll create a save immediately after this happens to me again, and post.

Ok, I have started a new game and my sovereign just got Rain of Arrows but the problem is not repeating itself.  So, it must not be directly linked to Rain of Arrows.  I have the old save with my sovereign near some enemy units so you can try it out.  I just loaded it and the delay happens again as soon as I attack and auto-resolve a combat with my sovereign's army.

How can I link the save for you to test out?

Was the old game started with the newer version of the game, or the older version of the game?

I also see this issue, but I never use auto-resolve - it just happens randomly when I tell my hero to use the Rain of Arrows ability.

 

I would say it happens more often than not, but definitely not every time I use the ability. I have not noticed similar effects with other abilities (I have about 30 hours of playtime).

 

I don't have facts to back this claim up, but It seems to me like the bug is less likely to happen the first time I use the ability in a session, and more likely to happen if the game has been running for a while.

 

I'm running whatever the default version of the game available on steam is.

It's with the Beta 1.1 version.  Anyone know how I can link the save game for Derek to look at?

Then drop the save in your public folder and copy public link and post the link... voila you've posted your save on the forums.

Edit: You can copy the public link via the context menu when you rightclick on the file in the public folder (or sub folder) or you can navigate the website and follow the forms to copy the link there.

Ok...let me try and link this.  In this save, my sovereign is in an army and there is an enemy nearby you can chase down in a turn to check on the delay.  Just auto-resolve the battle and you will see a delay.
