pixnaps Joined: 2010-01-19, 22:14 Posts: 10 Pry about Widelands	Posted at: 2010-01-19, 22:18 I've noticed this problem too. In addition, it won't let me defeat the enemy headquarters. I killed all the soldiers, but my soldiers continue to just dance around outside as though still fighting, but there's nobody left for them to fight against... (I'm new here - is there a way to attach the savefile to this forum post? Alternatively, bug-fixers are welcome to email me if they want me to send them the file.) P.S. The tutorials worked fine (as far as I could tell). Edited: 2010-01-19, 22:20 Top Quote

I've also just noticed this - I modded some worlds and tribes, but just for the scientific test mode I used a clean install ... soldiers defeated but no building conquest. I have checked all the military sites in the global folder, and ensured that tribe config files make reference to all these buildings ... nada. Anyone any ideas on this yet? Adam. Top Quote

Both expanded properly (confirming Raistware's observation that the expansion bug only plagues barbarian AIs). I could conquer military buildings, and even destroyed the yellow AI's headquarters. But my attack on the second AI's headquarters was buggy (no conquest, attacking soldiers just stand around outside). Very puzzling! Top Quote

I have observed the bug you say that sometimes soldiers keep at enemy building's flag and wait indefenitely. I am trying to get time to debug that and find what is the problem. Any recent savegame should help. Cheers. Top Quote

Where is the computer player AI stored? Is it actually in the game files themselves, or somewhere in the tribe/world config files (not that I have seen anything in the latter) Cheers, Spice. Top Quote
