Sadness, also, good to see the thread is back.

I wondered where the thread had gone...

"e.g. links to websites that attempt to steal information"
I am pretty sure there were not GOV links in there, tho.

Important bug fix for the patch fixing an issue when loading maps that haven't been played with any of the later versions of the patch.

[Jagulars]

Reverted the patch to an earlier version due to inexplicable increase in the frequency of access violation errors.

What's up with angry provinces revolting right after you capture them?

1. I let a province rebel (or my guards get killed)
2. I bring a hero and defeat the defenders
3. At turn start I get a rebellion and the hero has to fight it (not even time to buy guards)
4. If you win, the unrest is set to 50%

Is this a vanilla 'mechanic'?

[Jagulars]

It is a vanilla mechanic or bug depending on how you look at it. When you quell the rebels, their unrest is mitigated. But if any player fails to quell them, their unrest remains, waiting there, for whoever conquers the province in the future. Hard to say if it's intended or overlooked mechanic.

[Ansive]

I'd say it's a bug, because the rebels (or what's left of them) are the ones that you need to fight when you recapture the province. (it would make sense if the defenders were different)

The fact that other players can get your rebellion is pretty funny though. Could lead to multiplayer shenanigans.

I'd say province recapture should reset the unrest to 50%, or at least 90% to give you a chance to remedy the situation or hire a guard. And not trigger for other players.

But some people might argue it's best to leave it alone.

One thing is certain, I will avoid annoying highly populated orc provinces, 9 orcs with an ogre are no joking matter, especially twice in a row.

[Jagulars]

Perhaps.

[Jagulars]

Updated the patch, fixing a bug where enemy hero would resurrect in the province where it was defeated some turns earlier.

[Ansive]

UI Bug: income from Blacksmithing shows in the UI also when the hero is dead (but it is not added, as expected)
Not sure if income from equipped items is also UI bugged for dead heroes.

[Jagulars]

Thanks for reporting.

[Ansive]

There's something wrong with crushing blow sometimes.
The Crystal Golem in the screenshot can't activate it.
The Obsidian Golem next to it can activate it.
Both are summoned (level 7).

[Jagulars]

I will investigate

[Jagulars]

Okay. I have fixed the bugs you mentioned. However, I am now struggling with an unfamiliar phenomenon where I seem to get much more access violation errors in places that are seemingly unrelated to my latest changes, so I don't want to publish the newest. I will have to see if I can figure it out.
