I think rooks inability to set a tower on random occasions should be added.

This happens once and a while, you pick a perfectly clean peice of the map try to set your tower and it says "aborted" or something similar.

This is particularily annoying when you are trying to down a structure but not take the damage by setting a tower and the gods "abort" your attempt.

Kryo, have you seen the issue with the new desync handling. It looks like the desync now ends the game instantly. What about adding a desync countdown before kicking the desyncing player. Again it sucks to end a game and this may be an exploitable area to force no loss.

 

We are having a conversation about it in this thread.

The new desync handling is intentional, but if you can confirm any new issues arising as a result, I'll add them.

I am getting very weird graphic problems that I never use to have.  In midplay, the graphics go all blocky and the game locks up.  By minimizing and getting back to desktop, I can return to the game and continue, but the graphics happen again.  I never had this problem till after the last patch.  I played single player all the way through (tournament) with about 5 dg.  Now I am useing the QoT and I am haveing all these graphic problems.  Someone posted a fix for ATI cards, but I have a Nvidia 6800 with latest drivers.  I dont play at an extremely high resolution but these graphic glitches seem to happen more now and has made the game unplayable...  Guess I will wait for next patch to see if it fixes anything.....  Looked at some of the tech support forums and found that one sticky on fixing it... but it applies to ATI cards and I cant do what they suggest to fix....

 

Hope this is addressed.....

Please add to the list the broken "Sludge Slinger" trinket. When using it on an opponent who you are not facing it will get you stuck until you use a skill. (Link)

Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this item is quite important in fights against certain Demigods.

Yeah that happened before the last hotfix too. The host simply has to Open and Close (or vice versa) a slot, or move the position of himself, then the players list will get updated for every player again. But this should definitely be added to the list.

Kryo - from a stat reporting point of view, should the there be any record of the game ever happening if a desync occurs?  The 1 time its happened to me (about 15 min into a game with/against human players), there was no record of the game.

I'm not sure, I'd assume though that it should at least report as N/A.

Kryo - can we get the minion health items bug added to the thread CosMoe mentioned?  A link to the thread is here:  http://forums.demigodthegame.com/362045. 

Here's the problem: 

When buying +Minion Health Items (Hauberk of Life, etc.) and using any General but Erebus, your minions have their original health when summoned and not the boosted health.

Here's the solution:

Apparently, when the Sigil buff was created, the developer used the Hauberk of Life item as a model. Part of the copied code was not replaced, and this caused the overwriting error. To fix the problem with the Sigil of Life:

Edit the Consumable Items file:

\lua\common\Items\Consumable_Items.lua

Change line 1274 from:

            BuffType = 'CHEST040MINIONHEALTH',

to:

            BuffType = 'CONSUMABLE110PASSIVE',

Regarding the torchbearer autoattack bug from your list, here is the solution:

Open the file MageFire_Character.lua.  Select lines 179/180/181 and paste in the following code:  

 

Code: c++
  1. ANIM_START_MOVING = { Duration = 0.2, TargetState = 'AttackRangedMove', CopyClocks = true, },
  2.             },
  3.         },
  4.         AttackRangedMove = {
  5.              SoundLoop = 'Forge/DEMIGODS/Torch_Bearer/snd_dg_torch_idle_fire_lp',
  6.              BaseAttackLength = 1.5,
  7.              Compositions = {
  8.                  {
  9.                     Animation = '/characters/Mage/animations/Mage_AttackFire_anim.gr2',
  10.                     Loop = false,
  11.                     EventOnCompletion = true,
  12.                     Events = {
  13.                         { name = 'torch_mode2_attack', time = 0.48, }, #sound
  14.                         { name = 'FireAttack', time = 0.5, },
  15.                         { name = 'attack_effect_01', time = 0.4, },
  16.                         { name = 'attack_effect_02', time = 0.6, },
  17.                     },
  18.                 },
  19.             },
  20.             Transitions = {
  21.                 ANIM_DONE = { TargetState = 'Idle',},
  22.                 ANIM_INTERRUPT =  { Duration = 0.2, TargetStateStationary = 'Idle', TargetStateMoving = 'Run', },
  23.                 ANIM_STOP_MOVING = { Duration = 0.2, TargetState = 'AttackRanged', CopyClocks = true, },
  24.             },
  25.         },

Sound looping issue (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356935). This happens alot. Very annoying.

Move order is canceled when using effects (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356694). The move order is turned into an auto-attack order.

Nice listing of auto-attack related bugs (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356419)

Inaccurate health bar on zoom in (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/356347)

Mana/Health loss on item drop (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/360939)

Light/Dark capping all flags creates "Invalid Game State" error (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/362132)

Language for engine messages (xxx has left, xxx has joined...) in game lobby uses the hosts language setting (this should be the users language setting): my russian is a bit rusty!

Torchbearer: Respawns in Ice mode by default. This should be the last used mode (Fire/Ice)!

 

HAPPY HUNTING...

It's not a valor flag bug, it's just a flag bug. The regen flags on Leviathan have the same issue.

Mana/Health loss on item drop (http://forums.demigodthegame.com/360939)

I think I solved this.

  • AdjustHealth and AdjustMana should work correctly
  • Sigil works like it did before (same applies to mana: Inspirational Flame)
  • Dropping items (they are Adjust=false) doesn't effect current Mana/Health

 

Code: c++
  1. function MaxHealth( unit, buffName )
  2.     local oldMaxHealth = unit:GetMaxHealth()
  4.     local unitbphealth = unit:GetBlueprint().Defense.MaxHealth or 1
  5.     local newMaxHealth = BuffCalculate(unit, buffName, 'MaxHealth', unitbphealth)
  6.     unit:SetMaxHealth(newMaxHealth)
  7.     unit.Sync.MaxHealth = newMaxHealth
  9.     # Adjusts current health by the amount of the MaxHealth buff
  10.     local maxHealthAdjustment = newMaxHealth - oldMaxHealth
  11.     local currentHealth = unit:GetHealth()
  13.     # If we are decreasing max health, then apply the descrease
  14.     if maxHealthAdjustment < 0 then
  15.         if(Buffs[buffName].Affects.MaxHealth.AdjustHealth == true) then
  16.             if(currentHealth + maxHealthAdjustment <= 0) then
  17.                 unit:AdjustHealth(-currentHealth + 1)
  18.             else
  19.                 unit:AdjustHealth(maxHealthAdjustment)
  20.             end
  21.         else
  22.             if currentHealth > newMaxHealth then
  23.                 unit:AdjustHealth(newMaxHealth - currentHealth)
  24.             end
  25.         end
  26.     # Otherwise we are increasing max health. The bp tells us whether or not to adjust the current health
  27.     else
  28.         if(Buffs[buffName].Affects.MaxHealth.AdjustHealth == true) then
  29.            unit:AdjustHealth(maxHealthAdjustment)
  30.         end
  31.     end
  33.     #LOG('*BUFF: Unit ', repr(unit:GetEntityId()), ' buffed max health to ', repr(val))
  34. end

 

Code: c++
  1. function MaxEnergy( unit, buffName )
  2.     local oldMaxEnergy = unit:GetMaxEnergy()
  4.     local unitbpenergy = unit:GetBlueprint().Energy.EnergyMax or 0
  5.     local newMaxEnergy = BuffCalculate(unit, buffName, 'MaxEnergy', unitbpenergy)
  6.     unit:SetMaxEnergy(newMaxEnergy)
  8.     # Adjusts current energy by the amount of the MaxEnergy buff
  9.     local maxEnergyAdjustment = newMaxEnergy - oldMaxEnergy
  10.     local currentEnergy = unit:GetEnergy()
  11.    
  12.     # if we are decreasing the max energy then apply the decrease
  13.     if maxEnergyAdjustment < 0 then
  14.         if(Buffs[buffName].Affects.MaxEnergy.AdjustEnergy == true) then
  15.             if(currentEnergy + maxEnergyAdjustment <= 0) then
  16.                 unit:SetEnergy(1)
  17.             else
  18.                 unit:SetEnergy(currentEnergy + maxEnergyAdjustment)
  19.             end
  20.         else
  21.             if currentEnergy > newMaxEnergy then
  22.                 unit:SetEnergy(newMaxEnergy)
  23.             end
  24.         end
  25.     # if we are increasing the max energy
  26.     else
  27.         if(Buffs[buffName].Affects.MaxEnergy.AdjustEnergy == true) then
  28.            unit:SetEnergy(currentEnergy + maxEnergyAdjustment)
  29.         end
  30.     end
  32.     # LOG('*DEBUG: oldMaxEnergy ' .. oldMaxEnergy .. '\nnewMaxEnergy ' .. newMaxEnergy .. '\mcurrentEnergy ' .. currentEnergy .. '\nnewCurrentEnergy ' .. currentEnergy + maxEnergyAdjustment)
  33.     #LOG('*BUFF: Unit ', repr(unit:GetEntityId()), ' buffed max energy to ', repr(newMaxEnergy))
  34. end

plague not working with post mortem http://forums.demigodthegame.com/361394

to elaborate i think the only time post mortem will work once you pick plague is if the UB can kill the target in one hit (like the archers) before it's given a chance to be plagued.

i dont host very often but this error happened twice to me yet. the game just hangs up while trying to host a game! no message, no crash, it just hangs and shows around 50% cpu in the taskmanager. i have waited 5 minutes and nothing happened.

first time it happened it was after i had kicked a player (the button still showed as pushed down). second time it was during typing into the chat!

ok another error i just experience the second time: i timed out for some other player and he timed out for me. thats really annoying cause he didnt time out for the others and we were stuck. i wanted to end the game so that the others would be able to go on playing but even that wasnt possible! i could concede and had to end the game by killing the process. i just hope that didnt cause a gamestate error since the game was fun so far... can there be anything done about this?

It will not let me save it, i am opening the file with notepad.  Is there some other program i have to open it with?  It says I cannot find the path, when i go into the bindata/characters/mage i do not see the LUA file anywhere.
