Road to Legend Bug Report

By kraisto, in Road to Legend

I did the 2nd mission in the Nerkehall campaign (the one for Kaplan). I was asked to gather tile 70, but I don't have MoB or have it turned on. It never had me use the tile, but did ask me to gather it.

I think there are in fact 2 bugs in this quest ("In a manor of speaking") regarding the tile selection, but I don't think it's related to tile 70 or even Mists of Bilehall. This quest has an alternate layout which should be used i you own Manor of Ravens (Tiles 70-77), but even the "default" layout (which should only require tiles of the base game (1-30) and Shadows of Nerekhall (50-69) calls for a Manor of Ravens tile. Here is the text in question:

Quote

SOC_Q_IAMOS_TILES,"Set aside tiles 3, 7, 23, 26, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 59, 60, 62, 72."

This is the "default" layout, so using tile 72 is definitely wrong here.

Quote

SOC_Q_IAMOS_TILES_ALT,"Set aside tiles 23, 26, 51, 52, 53, 55, 59, 60, 62, 71, 72, 73, 74, 76, and 77."

This is the alternate layout, which is fine.

The tiles used in the quest itself however should be fine. These tiles are placed while playing the default layout:

Quote

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_1,"Place 3A, 7A, 23A, 26A, 52A, 53A, 54A, 1 Entrance, 2 end caps, 1 extender, 1 transition, 1 door, and 1 portcullis."

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_2,"Place 56A, 57A, 2 locked doors, and 1 door."

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_3,"Place 55B, 59B, 60B, 62B, 3 end caps, and 1 entrance."

So the tiles 51 and 72 are never used when setting up the map, and could be removed from the list of tiles.

When playing with the alternate layout, the following tiles are used:

Quote

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_1_ALT,"Place 23A, 26A, 52A, 53A, 72A, 73A, 74A, 76A, 1 Entrance, 2 end caps, 1 door, and 1 portcullis."

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_2_ALT,"Place 71B, 76B, 77B, 3 end caps, and 1 door."

SOC_Q_IAMOS_ROOM_3_ALT,"Place 51B, 55B, 60B, 62B, 3 end caps, 1 transition, and 1 entrance."

Everything checks out here.

There are however other instances of quests which call for tiles which aren't used in the setup ("The Treasure of Davin Throm" comes to mind).

Example:

Quote

Q_TTODT_ALL_TILES,"Set aside tiles 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 9, 12, 16, 21, 23, and 28."

But only a fraction of these tiles is really needed:

Quote

Q_TTODT_INTRO_TILES,"Place 2B, 8B, 1 end cap, and 1 door."

Q_TTODT_BRIDGE_TILES,"Place 4B, 5B, 1 end cap, and 1 door."

Q_TTODT_TOP_TILES,"Place 12B, and 1 door."

Q_TTODT_CENTER_TILES,"[..]Place 9B, 21B, 1 end cap, and 1 Exit."

As you can see, tiles 3, 16, 23 and 28 are never used. I'd guess this quest was originally planned either to be larger, or have differing layouts depending on the what the heroes choose at the beginning.

By the way: There is another issue that still persists since the release of the campaign "Seeds of Corruption":

The dialogue option:

Quote

SOC_Q_FTS_ENTER_NEREKHALL_KAPLAN_STORY_HEXER,"What do the voices say? [Hexer]"

is always greyed out, even if the is a hexer present.

It’s been a while since I’ve played, but inconsistencies between the tile listing and the tiles used happened surprisingly often. A tile wasn’t used, or was used but wasn’t listed, etc. It isn’t too unusual.

@DerDelphi I’m kinda disappointed to learn that the Hexer dialogue is bugged. I always see that option and think that it must be special, since the Hexer struggles a bit compared to other mages. Similar to how the Spiritspeaker’s travel event is surprisingly powerful.

Hello. An unpleasant bug has appeared. When I buy a second act item in the store, the Item purchased window freezes!. Because of this, you can't continue. When you exit the app, it freezes on a black screen with the cursor. A complete reinstall with cleaning the registry and using the same saves did not help.Can someone tell me how to fix this bug. It's a shame, most of the company is passed. I attach a screenshot.

Just encountered what I think is a bug: in the Head of the Snake quest of the Kindred Fire campaign, in the same round we defeated the unique Ettin master before cutting the gate ropes, then cut them and jumped to the rampart with one of our heroes, triggering the setup of the ramparts part of the map. Then we stopped playing without finishing the round. However, after loading the game, the Ettin did not appear in the monster list anymore, but when triggering the cutting of the gate ropes again to jump the game to the actual (real) turn we left it, the game told us we had to defeat the Ettin before continuing! Due to this the jump to the ramparts is impossible and the quest cannot continue. Can you please help?

Any solution to this? We are facing exactly the same issue
