Hello again dev!
Oct 18, 2023
Wanted to create a second post today, it's about the zombie units, generally there is a serious bug with regards to zombie units, if say your zombie units poisons an enemy unit and in the next turn they kill that enemy unit that unit becomes a zombie unit and is converted into your side, however the bugs with zombie units switching side is buggy since in theory the game is applying the rule of "is the unit poison" "if so is it by the zombie" "and if so which factions owns it", probably the glitch occurs since raising the dead unit as a zombie similar to the liches (necromancer and others) ability to "raise the dead" which when raising the dead converts corpses and places your units down, however the zombie unit in question is converted at the same time.
I am probably making a dumb comment so regard this as disposable, but in a little idea, could we give the zombie units the (individual units) all the ability to "raise one zombie" (treated as a spell or skill) with the corpse determining the class of zombie similar to the cemetery reapers except have them only a range of 1 block. It might make the process streamline.

Re: Zombie raise rework idea
1. Few updates later, after we will be done with buildings update, we will be working on multiple bug fixing (if that is possible).
2. As for this idea — it is similar to idea we have in mind already for zombie apocalypse later (alas it will have its own limits). Will not spoiler here more but i must mention that this idea requires fixing current bug with zombie raising.

Re: Zombie raise rework idea
There are multiple problems with testing this bug, especially with time.
Buildings update is a bit easier to work for me for now.
This bug will be next one (especially since we need to fix multiple engine bugs one of which is this zombie bug).

Re: Zombie raise rework idea
If someone else can help with play testing 5hose bugs than sure it can be worked earlier.
But personally i would be free to play test them only in December.

Re: Zombie raise rework idea
I can help with playtesting it. I'll message you on discord about it.
Disclaimer: I do not know how to exactly replicate it. I'm only offering to help try random ideas in multiplayer and hopefully we eventually see it.

Don't blink. Don't even blink. Blink and you're dead. Don't turn your back. Don't look away. And don't blink.
