Turn based freezes and doesn't finish an NPC's turn

[Hitman]

When playing turn based the game sometimes freezes and doesn't end a NPC's turn.

I can work around this by going into real-time and then back into turn-based but it is very irritating.

Is there a better work around?

I am surprised this bug is still here after this game has had multiple post release patches.

Which NPCs specifically? I've been playing turn-based for a long time and have never encountered this bug. Not with summoned creatures, not with anyone or anything else.

[Hitman]

All types of NPC or enemy. At the moment I'm experiencing it with the allied guards during the attack on the Defenders Heart near the beginning of the game.

Are you using mods?

[Hitman]

No mods

[MjKorz]

Very strange. All I can say is that I have never experienced this issue playing turn based on a purely vanilla, always up to date game.

Are there any fear effects going, out of curiosity? Turn-based usually works pretty well for me, but in my midnight isles runs I've been noticing Fear really mucks it up for some reason.

[Hitman]

No fear effects.

The bug has always been occasionally present even before the big fear/confusion bug introduced a few patches ago. I noticed whenever the freeze would happen to me switching to RTWP briefly would fix it, but it would become more frequent afterwards. Quitting the game and loading back in would “reset” things so to speak and I usually wouldn’t see it again for few days. All anecdotal of course.

Sometimes this does happen to my games too. I usually just switch to real time and switch it to turn based again to fix it

I don't know if it's the same bug as back in PF: Kingmaker, but this happened alot in that game too. It would usually crop up when an enemy would summon more foes or my party killed quite a few all in one turn. The solution I've found that is easiest, is to just hit escape or whatever your menu button is and then just resume the game again. Again not sure if it's the same exact problem but sounds like it might be, hope this helps.
