"You are not in command of this siege" bug STILL not fixed over 3 months later
I quit playing this game because of this bug. WHEN are the devs going to fix this?

Summary:
I'm having the same exact problem that this other user on Reddit was having over 3 months ago. His screenshots of the interface message "you are not in command of this siege" match the message I get in my siege that was joined by an AI: https://old.reddit.com/r/Bannerlord/comments/11h2twh/the_game_says_im_not_in_command_of_this_siege/

Basically, whenever you lead a siege against a castle or city and an AI comes up and joins your army, you are no longer "in command" of the siege. This means you can no longer decide when to start the assault on the castle/city. It also plays a major part in determining which party actually acquires the castle/settlement after the siege is over IIRC. This very frustrating bug is the reason I stopped playing this otherwise great game.

How to Reproduce:
Start a siege on any city or castle and have an AI party meet your position and join your siege (not under your command). You will lose command over the siege as well as the ability to commence the siege on your own terms.

They don't take bug reports from modded games since mods can add any kind of bug/crash. If it's any consolation, I had the issue with no mods and reported it, though.

Ok. Have they replied to you at all about this problem?

They said they passed it to QA. I trust them to fix it but they're super slow so if it's a deal breaker to you, you'd better play another game and come back in 6 month.

I really hope the big update is coming sooner rather than later. I want to play again but I HATE this bug :/

It was reported originally about 2 months ago so it should be fixed SOON(tm)

I want to add that not only it persists in Beta 1.21, but you can take advantage of it.

When you are a faction leader and you see army of any other neutral faction besieging setlement of your enemy, if you join in *BEFORE* they assault, they give the command (and the fief) to you. I claimed a castle or two that way, on piggyback of four figures empire army with my 100 troop group.

Thats not why you get chosen to have a newly captured castle. I lead sieges all the time and dont get every fief awarded to me. Im not using mods though.

In the vanilla beta 1.21 whoever has the most troop strength (not troop numbers) takes over control of a siege. Its not operating perfectly though.

Yeah but taking over another factions siege and taking their fief can't be right.

Another faction? Unless you are at war with the defenders you cant join their siege. If you can then its most likely an issue with your mods. This tech support subforum isnt for modded games, you might get lucky with devs helping, but I wouldnt count on it

Always making assumptions. I wasn't talking about me, I was talking about the guy you quoted. He was saying you can hijack another factions siege and take the fief for your own. Whether they are using mods I don't know.

Could easily be exploited by not becoming a kingdom and just hijack other factions sieges.

Sorry did I quote you? You just assumed I was talking to you! I was responding to the OP who clearly has issues because of their mods.
