Lich does not reanimates from tc

Post by DoomCarrot »

I have found two bugs.

1. When a lich is in a tc, and you attempt to use reanimate dead, sometimes it works fine, and sometimes nothing happens, as if you are not allowed to use it from a tc. However, on occassion, the spell will seem to "fail" and no dead in range are reanimated, and the lich loses its action/turn.

2. When you do not attack or cast a spell with a lich, it will automatically attempt to convert something in range, like builders automatically build things if you forget. However, the lich will often convert things out of its conversion range when it uses it automatically.

For instance. I moved my lich but could not do anything with it, as everything was out of range. However, when I pressed end turn, it successfully used convert on a unit one space out of conversion range.

autocast is an old bug, it has a topic, lets talk it there.

but the other non casting thing i never saw, i tried it 10 times and worked always.
can u tell me how to reproduce it? can u make a mapdesign where i can reproduce the glitch in a few turns?

important q: dio u see "miss" text appearing when bthis happens?

It does if it misses, if it doesn't miss it will just convert the unit, it can also convert units with 100% convert resistance

Yes, there was once or twice when I tried to use the spell from within a tc, and it basically just ended the lich's turn. I don't know how to reproduce it, because it only happened once or twice, and on very random occassion

Yes I think it did miss, but that is the strange thing because it should always work?
