[Bug] Crash during battle Caster of Magic Windows (1.0.4)

Post by DoxaLogos »

I recently ran into a crash during a battle. I would skip the battle if I didn't feel like it was important to slow an angry wizard marching on my cities. As far as I know I think I have the lastest update to Caster of Magic Windows (bought on Steam recently).

The crash happens when I move my army out of the city of Hob (lizardmen city) and attack the red wizard stack next to it. The first crash happened right in the middle of battle, but now it happens on the first turn. I've attached the autosave file in a zip.

Just to confirm, the crash happens when the AI tries to cast "Dispel Magic" on my troops.

I believe I have encountered this bug as well and have a bit to add.

I first saw this crash after entering a combat and the opponent casting dispel magic on me, immediately causing it to crash. My unit only had 1 spell on it that could be dispelled so after I reloaded the game, before entering combat, I tried manually removing/cancelling that enchantment from the unit's info screen (think that the opponent wouldn't cast dispel magic at all then) and as soon as I clicked to remove the enchantment, it immediately led to a crash as well. I suspect it might be the same cause.

I am also on version 1.04.00. And just before hitting submit I noticed someone else pointed this out as well. :)
