Hi everyone,

I couldn't find this issue having been raised anyone else as yet.

I have been playing with three friends and last night we encountered an issue where, even though we had hit space or clicked the hourglass, the turn wouldn't end for that character (or set of characters). This didn't seem to have any particular pattern - happening for all players (we tried switching ownership with the Session interface, but it didn't work), happening for any character, and even for summoned pets, and happening in different fights. There was just no way to continue the game so we were forced to reload from the last save. At one point, we were unable to get through a longer combat (at the druid grove gates) until after a dozen or so attempts.

This didn't happen at all last week when we played, so it feels as if it were introduced.

Has anyone else encountered this? Is there something we can do to push through if this happens again?

Thanks.

I've had the same issue a few times, tried to click the hourglass and space but couldn't end the turn. Just ended up loading an earlier save!

I've encountered this a few times as well, usually when I had placed an obscene amount of barrels and fired them off. It sorted itself by me going to make coffee, then coming back to a fully functioning game. I suspect it might just be the engine running a little low on memory in situations where a lot is happening.

Interesting... similar experience here - I encountered it during the fight with a certain very large spider where I destroyed some webs with explosives and multiple creatures(friend + foe) fell as a result. I originally thought it was from trying to end turn with a character prone, but the issue reoccurred several rounds later when everyone was on their feet.

Interestingly in my case I could save mid-fight, reload the game I just saved, and then the turn would end properly. But I had this happen twice in teh same fight(the first time, and again several rounds later).

+1 here.

I think I 'might' have figured a workaround for this bug. I'm not sure if its definite but, when you have 'linked' iniative it seems to happen then. Upon reloading
saves and trying over and over and not fixing, I tried ending the turns of the linked characters in order they are on the list. that seemed to work.

Need to do more testing to clarify though.
