Returning to Proper Start Screen

Post by gbaby »

Loving the game. 50+ battles and I still have surprises. Tonight I had two armies mostly medium infantry, a lot of them on both sides, no heavy at all. Close battle, and I was annoyed, feeling the AI had a morale assist somehow since every time one of my unites routed, everyone friendly unit failed morale check and this never happened to AI, who always held firm. My troops were above average, AI was below average, what is happening here! Later where there was a lot of melee going on, one of the AI routed, caused failed morale checks units adjacent enemy units, and that triggered several rounds of further routing and failed morale checks, it went on for four rounds! AI was at -20% morale and after this ongoing chain reaction, -45%! That was a lot of units routing. It was horrific, well, if it happened to me that is.

OH, SORRY!!! This is a rather small annoyance. I do custom battles a lot, since it has such incredible flexibility. However, every battle I finish, for some reason the game takes me back to the "Epic Battle" screen. This is not where I started the battle, which was from the "Custom Battle" screen. It means I have to hit a couple of mouse clicks (return to start screen, hit custom battle button), which is not so bad except you have to wait for the loading of custom screen, which you already waited on the loading of the epic battle screen, which was a waste of time since that is not where you wanted to be.

Not a real serious item and very much a minor annoyance more than anything else, but just making note that it does seem a little odd that it takes me to "Epic Battle" screen which is not where the battle originated from. I would like to return the the originating screen where the battle was started from.

Thanks for listening.

Great time to be an Ancients fan. This product is the best.

Was this using the default Custom Battles module, or a downloaded one?

This is the default Custom Battles module, not using any downloaded one.

Just a small annoyance to have to maneuver screens after each battle. I can live with it though.

As do I. It's an annoyance.

I think it may be after you load in a saved game.

Very true. I tried to save in the mid and reload. It goes to epic battle when over. If I don't save, it is fine as I posted above.

We tried to fix it previously, but it is an engine issue. I will see if Pip can have another go.
