*Facepalm* AI Getting Stuck at borders is so frustrating, any fix?
SERIOUSLY, i'm nearly giving up the idea of having allies help me in battle, LITERALLY 1 out of 3 battles with AI as reinforcements this happens, one of the most crucial battles for me and my allies against the Ikko Ikki and what happens? my ENTIRE ALLY ARMY GETS STUCK, AAAAAAAAAAAAAH, and i was literally counting on his units and planned it beforehand just for this to happen and my forces gets slaughtered, what happens next? the now invincible ikko ikki stack just started to steamroll through my territory because of that and i basically lost this entire freaking campaign because of some @#$&¨#&$# Bug that wasn't fixed in YEARS this game has been out, i'm so done with this bug that the moment i see my ally stuck at the border i just Esc > Quit battle and quit the F&*#$#$NG game


Still love this game tho S2, <3, any way to fix this lovable bug from this lovable game before i destroy my monitor?

Thx in advance :steamhappy:.

only happend to me one time only, but it also has something todo with military access in diplomacy they can get caught in no mans land between borders or they are send to nearest own land but it has been seen that you get stuck on isle and edge and only bigger ships can help them if cliff size is high or something like that, also watchout for rebel armys if they get stuck on map if building is in the way then you have worst case, this is more seen if game is modded, its actual quite rare and yet so many have notice this. happend atleast 1 out of 50 games apox ofc roughly. imo.

I use 4 mods.

Saika Unique Factions
The Increased province mod (That add a lot of provinces)
The Vastator Units variation mod.
and 3 skill points per level, generals.

No other mod aside from that, and this bug happened a LOT of times with me, i probably have 6+ pictures of it and i only played the game for 90 hours, from all these hours, the time i spend in battle with AI reinforcements were nearly minimal and this bug happened at a 30% chance of happening.

Last battle i fought with the AI, it was me + 2 AI reinforcements, one entered the borders fine, the other (The full stack), got stuck in the border, no surprise there, i lost that battle.

In well over 1k hours of gameplay this happened to me once when I was using the MOS mod, given what you have just said I would say it is the increased provinces mod which is causing your problem as MOS also does this and mods that increase provinces are known to cause a number of odd bugs like armies getting permanently stuck in zone of control limbo where they can never move.
I will say in MOS this bug is definetly a lot rarer as I have probably 200 ish hours with that mod and only seen it once, I've never seen it playing the game without increased provinces.

as above mention mods that change provinces / resources ... darthmod also did this. i guess they forgot move path for armys ( special then they flee on campaign maps to places they normal dont seek themself sometime it could be nice with a controll flee selection path ) but game was never designed this way. if flee from battlemap then unit should stick to that compass direction that will make sense. to bad if you run into other army and get wiped.
