Potential Companions Not Where the encyclopedia says they are.
Encyclopedia says a hero is at a city I go there and they're nowhere to be found. Even waited till it refreshed and it says they're still in the city.

Any idea if heroes can be hidden in the city or is it just broken?

I think it has quite a bit of a delay, as I've noticed that immediately after the encyclopedia location updates, they'll be there, but if it's been sitting for a while, or particularly on game start, it's wildly inaccurate as they could be anywhere.

Just to make sure.
You are looking in the tavern, not the city itself?

Else

I found out there was a bug on 1.06 ()Not sure if its still viable for 1.0.7) that if you disband a party with your comp in it, it will get bugged. What fixed it for me it was to let her/him get captured.

Yeah I know its a bit slow. I waited in the city till it refreshed and checked the tavern right after it refreshed in the encyclopedia. Then left the city and came back just to be sure. Tried this multiple times.

Yep looking tavern then had a look around the city thinking they were hidden or something.

I like that they move around and the encyclopedia isn`t some kind of radar. makes you actually have to find them like you would have to.

Haven't disbanded anything yet, still fairly early game.

If you check N and it says they are somewhere...it will forever say they are at that location. The locations of anyone only update when you enter a city or a village. This is not a bug, this is a feature. There is no delay in the update. The SECOND you enter a new village or city and leave the locations of all people will be updated.

Waited for it to refresh. Checked the tavern in the city the encyclopedia suggested then the two closest cities.

If one is in the city you could straight select them form the meune.
Its likely that they already have left that town.

This would make sense if so. But are you sure? it says last seen X number of days ago and then resets after so many days to seen today.

If they don't enter a village it can take weeks, mainly if they get captured by someone. That also gets listed just below where they have been seen.

Potential Companions can get captured? does that mean you can find them wandering around outside of a city? And that doesn't explain why they aren't there right after it refreshes to seen today at that location.

The potential ones can't.
I guess unrecruited ones can get put in a pool for some days to simulate them walking to another city.
I haven't tried tracking down a specific companion yet.

Turns out the Encyclopedia is just Balls for some of them. Turned on cheat mode and hopped around every city and eventually found the two that where not where the Encyclopedia kept insisting they were. One was two cities over the other was on the other side of the maps. For all the others its been dead accurate.
