In the final section, just after taking the northern locus, when Hester and Xerces make their simultaneous final push for the center, the text (through Orcent or maybe Riala) claims that they each have only a single locus left. Even though in my game, the Anak pushed the Aka/Yarra group back, and

I need one of the following to look into this:

A save before this result is reached.
A screenshot of the map showing 2 instead of 1 and the exact quote saying they only have one locus each. Who says it doesn't matter as long as I have the full quote.

Hrm, I'm still not sure what led to it, but the screenshot I took was clean and it seems to have resolved after I unplugged and re-plugged my monitor. It worked fine for all other applications but it could be that it's starting to give up the ghost. Could well have been an issue on my end unrelated to the update?

Seems likely, but give me a screenshot/recording of this if you run into it again.

Ok, so 0.79.3 fixed Lillith's randomness with combats busts on, which is great!
I still have a couple of comments around it 😅

Not a bug, just a gripe, There was a cool custom bust for "Randomness" (with Lilith's stomach morphing into a tooothy mouth IIRC). That cut in is now unavailable in game afaik. Since the flow of battle is: you pick "randomness" from the attack menu, then the game picks under the hood an attack from the available pool (let's say, attack "A"), finally the game announces "Lillith uses A", and plays A's custom bust. Nothing wrong there, that's also how it worked before (minus the bust). The sad consequence is that there's never a stage where the game shows the bust for randomness. (And I believe trying to show that bust is what caused the attack to be glitched in 0.79.2 in the first place). But I don't know if there is a way to work that illustration back into the game without slowing down battle by adding one extra stage to that attack, and I understand that some things have to be cut out.
A bit more bug-like. Randomness was always able to pick attacks from absent party members. E.g., Altina's even if she wasn't recruited. Which is great. But now that we see the busts, it means that you see Altina pop up when using the attack, which is a bit weird. (I can confirm it happens, I've spent minutes spamming the attack until I got the cut-in). I wonder if there's a nice and easy way to address this.
- You could use the now unused "Randomness" cut-in mentioned above! That would be a super niche use of that drawing and most saves would never see it. But it would still be better than loosing it forever.
- We could keep the attack-specific cut-in, but with the missing party member's sprite greyed-out, maybe with red eyes, to imply that it's just a manifestation from Lilith.

Hey so I've been replaying the game and enjoying the new features like the busts in dialogue. While playing through Ardford Summit, I noticed the merchant and Ghenalon rep are lacking the the new bust feature the other members have. So I'm curious if this is intentional or was it not activated for him?

Grim8P

Dragonwheel

It is intended that not every character has the bust but I'll pass the feedback on anyway.

SL would need art created to use as a bust for these characters so it's not as simple as "being activated".

Hiya, I've had a bug in the Govern Yhilin 2 section after returning from the elves, because I forgot to actually cash in the "find Rick's parents" quest in the invasion aftermath.
I found both parents at the time, and then went off to do the elf quest, and came back to find his parents standing around where Rick should be, with a nun having replaced Rick. The parents give the same "thank you for reuniting us!" dialogue, but the nun gives the failed quest "Rick went off to the slums and vanished" message.

Dragonwheel

So another bug i think i found. During the Battle of Yhillin, when you infiltrate the Hidden Stronghold, you're supposed to be able to infiltrate the hidden strong hold and choose your team, but for some reason the entire team is locked, you can only Yarra supposed to locked, yet I'm forced to bring Qum and Aka.

Grim8P

Dragonwheel I know what this is. To fix it, temporarily move your save to an earlier build, complete this section, save, move it back.

Changes were made in two places recently:

Hidden Stronghold
Yhilini Order of Thaumaturgy

To lock the party to prevent Simon from using Command to swap people when he wasn't supposed to be able to do so for plot reasons. It looks like that fix did not work as intended. I'll pass this along.

Grim8P Changes were made in two places recently:

"Hidden Stronghold
Yhilini Order of Thaumaturgy"

Any idea when this glitch will be fixed? The Hidden Stronghold fight is completely messed up now.

Very minute: Act I, Stineford, With Aka's request active. When talking with the weaponsmith's kid, you have three options: "Shop", "Ask about ore", "Nothing". Pressing "Escape" on that screen triggers the dialogue for "Ask about ore". I assume it's because "Escape" implicitely picks option 2? (Rather than option 3, which would have been more appropriate). This is harmless - if a bit confusing - but got me wondering if there are other places where this happens.

Dragonwheel

So this might be because the npc sprite updates are still in progress, but I'll just mention this to be sure. The head priestess in Ferroholm, the one in the center of the church, got a new blonde sprite, but when you revisit the church later (I'm in 3AW) the same character has the default blue hair sprite.

At the first Gathering, the results for the Trials of Orcish Strength have been replaced with the results for a "Breeding Competition." (Not sure what that is, but seeing as the Lord of Blood came in dead last, I'm pretty sure it was not another name for that event.)

Grim8P

lsc

Can you elaborate on this? Are you saying that after the trails of orcish strength, the letter on the table gives the results for the wrong thing, or something else?

lsc

Grim8P This is the letter that shows up after Trials of Orcish Strength:

Breeding Competition

Lustlord (Rodak)
Fheliel (Ghenalon)
Incubus King (Arclent)
Empress (Orgasmic Empire)
Unnamed King (independent)
Lord of Blood (independent)
Not Participating: Anak (Philon), Fucklord (Erosia)
Retired: Skullcrusher

I'm honestly at a loss as to what this is supposed to be.

Grim8P

lsc I think it's supposed to be the orc breeding competition. Balia is breeding orcs in real time during the event. But I'll pass on your confusion anyway.

Tzardok

Not a bug, but a possible typo:
If you go to Cee'Kan after the Succession Crisis Finale, you can encounter Orgonon there. He'll say he "received immense complication" for his work in Ardford. I'm pretty sure that he meant "compensation".

Grim8P

cgh Next release. If you move your save to an older build you can play through without the issue.

cgh

Grim8P Thx Grim8P for such a quick response.

There is a small bug in Stineford chapter 1, in the whorehouse you should get the option to whore out Qum if you fuck any of the prostitutes. However, only for the Zirantian Prostitute does this not work.
