Weirdboy sometimes fails to bring units with him when using Da Jump

[Babel Builder]

Used Da Jump to try and land units into contact with enemy troops. The destination was forest and a city tiles, all squares where units should appear where empty. The weirdboy jumped alone and did not bring any troops with him.

I waited a few turns and then used Da Jump again taking some units with him to an empty field. Worked fine.

Sorry you're having problems. Were the units all adjacent to the weirdboy? Had they already moved (not sure if that matters). Anything else unusual about when it worked vs didn't work?

All units were adjactent to the weirdboy. About half of them had to move into posistion that turn, and half had been waiting. When it did not work, I didnt not have sight on one or two of they surrounding hexes that units should have gone to (they did turn out to be empty when the weirdboy appeared there by himself). Some of the hexes were also adjactent to enemy city tiles, and forests that had enemy units in them. I made sure that the "formation" would fit where they were going, as i was hoping to drop the some meganobz right in melee with the units.

I can confirm:
1. If the spot the unit is supposed to land on is not empty (e.g. has a unit, is an ocean tile, etc) the unit will not teleport over.


Set up a 7 grid teleport for my weirdboyz (6 unit surrouding him).
I did the teleport, and I actually only had 3 go with him.

The other 3 remained in the previous location. And they were pretty important too lol (ork warboss, boyz, and painboyz)

So do you still think there is an issue here or its working as you would expect? Do we need to give more feedback if units fail to teleport?

[Nitroglycerine]

that's a decision up to you guys Iain

- I've seen, in other games, where the units would teleport anyways, but appear in shifted locations (closest open spots).
- if you want to keep it as is, then there has to be more feedback for sure. Maybe have the tooltip state it clearly.

I'm not sure either - will ask the team to decide!
