Summary​

Waiting for Combat Softlock

Description​

Game breaks with advanced AI starts as they seem to go after dormant infestations, attempt to engage them, get stuck in an infinite loop. 9/10 times it does not get resolved with a Quicksave + relaunch as the AI will continuously attempt to do the same action every time. This makes a lot of advanced AI's unusable.

Savefiles attached.

Steps to reproduce​

1. Set up a custom game
2. Pick any advanced AI starts (I chose the Archon one)
3. Play the game (modded or otherwise) and wait for a few turns
4. The AI will attempt to attack an infestation and get stuck in an infinite "Waiting for combat..." loop, breaking the game fully.

Hi Seapanda, thank you for reaching out. I ran both of the saves you provided with our local Giant Kings build and both saves proceeded to the next turn without issue. It's possible that one of the mods you have grants a unit a ability that the AI cannot process.

Hi Jordi,

When I was grabbing the mods, I made sure none of them require the latest 2 DLC's (Giant Kings and Ways of War). Is this a bug that was fixed with a later DLC or something?

Also, the game works perfectly fine with the same mods, as long as there are no advanced AI starts (the major modifiers to custom maps such as Archon Prohpet, Demon Prince, Frost Queen etc).

So....?
