Stunned = death?

[Xlomblie_Wheizard]

Twice now i've been hit by those stun crystals & gotten softlocked. The first time was out of combat when i hit one just to see what it did — got Stunned, couldn't move, nothing i did worked, couldn't cast or discard it, no actions had any effect, was just stuck & had to exit the game & lose all my loot.

The second time was in combat when an enemy decided to hit a stun crystal, & the same thing happened — couldn't discard it, couldn't perform any actions, just had to watch while i slowly got murdered over 5 turns by weak enemies, unable to act.

How do you deal w/ stun? Is it just automatic death? So far it seems that way. The card says, "can't cast non-effect cards, or act." Is Stunned itself not an effect card? Shouldn't i be able to i cast/discard/get rid of it? I don't know whether this is intentional or a bug, but it just seems a little absurd to me to be punished for trying to see what something does or for not predicting that an enemy would hit a crystal by losing an entire 45 minute dungeon run that was otherwise going very well.

Incidentally, both times the Stunned animation stayed on my character — even after exiting & going back the first time, & after dying & respawning the second time, the character sprite still had closed eyes & a dazed look as i continued playing. Is there something i'm not understanding here, or is it a bug? Extremely frustrating, to lose two good runs to absolutely nothing.

Hey! Fressato here, Lead Designer of the game.

I'm very sorry this happened. This ratter seems like a bug, could you send us you Player.Log? It should be located at "C:\Users\Username\AppData\LocalLow\Manalith Studios\Dungeon Drafters". This would help us pinpoint the issue and fix it asap.

That totally sounds like a bug.
Being stunned normally just discards your regular hand and keeps you from acting until you use/expire the effect card (which it sounds like you tried to do).

Okay, that's a relief to hear. Not sure how to attach files to posts here, so here's a mega link to the logs, hope it helps: https://mega.nz/folder/3JclGQbJ#IGd7631omH0RLlJBO-qg6g

okay, it keeps happening & i managed to record some footage of it. Am i going crazy? Is there a mechanic or button i don't know about? Also discovered i can't discard the Wound card manually either, have to wait till the end of turn for it to discard itself, & i'm 70% sure i was able to discard it manually when i first started playing? At any rate, i'm 99.99% certain the animation thing at the end is a bug. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DWWIaVDUmhA

Edit: Have added the player logs from that play session to the same folder in the link above

Oh, now I understand the issue, it works like most Self-Cast cards, you need to click on yourself to cast it, most effects work like that.

Oh! I see! Wow, can't believe i didn't think of that... thanks!

What about the staggered animation remaining, though? I guess it's not a huge deal, probably wouldn't come up often, but it persists until i exit the entire game, quitting to main menu doesn't remove it.

Oh yeah, when you mentioned it we thought the animation bug could be a separated issue, no worries it will be fixed!
