[2.8.0 PLQA] Swarm doesn't trigger on plains

[al_9]

I posted this thread in general sector originally, but haven't got any answer yet, so I'll repost it here.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I have two questions.

1) It seems swarm doesn't work on plains, with an army composition of 400 light cavalries and 100 horse archers on plains terrain, it should be able to trigger swarm tactic, but as you can see the screenshots I took, 40% of generic skirmish and 60% of disorganised harass, no swarm at all, any ideas how to fix it?

2) To solve the first problem, I decided to tweak the combat tactics file a little, in the original file the relevant part looks like this:

location = {
    NOT = { terrain = forest }
    NOT = { terrain = woods }
    NOT = { terrain = mountain }
    NOT = { terrain = impassable_mountains }
    NOT = { terrain = jungle }
    NOT = { terrain = marsh }
}

Which I changed it to:

location = {
    terrain = plains
}

or even removed everything in the location scope, but still not making any difference, what went wrong?

The uploaded game save and the screenshots were taken from the same game, it's easy to reproduce the situation. I don't use any mods.

Yo,

That doesn't look right indeed, maybe some hardcoded thing somewhere. We'll make a ticket and look into, thanks

Was this ever looked into? I still experience this problem in provinces with no holdings.

It seems that when used immediately within a tactic scope the location scope does not work in a province that has no holdings. But if you move the entire "location = { NOT = { terrain = ...} }" block into leader scope, you can get the expected tactics.
