Greetings, Heroes!
Our latest update streamlines your combat experience: unit formations are now saved automatically between encounters! We have also polished the visual and auditory feedback during the unit deployment phase to make movement feel more responsive and immersive.
Beyond these tactical improvements, we’ve ironed out several bugs, including fixes for tournament template timing, stray notification alerts, and various tooltip inaccuracies. We have also resolved an issue with the “Ambassador’s Word” set effect and implemented a safety confirmation prompt when exiting the connection loss screen—no more accidental disconnects!
You can find the full patch notes detailed below. Good luck on the battlefield!
Changelog
v. 0.80.24
Bug Fixes
- Resolved UI errors triggered when loading Hotseat saves or swapping positions with an AI player in the game lobby.
- Fixed an edge-case bug where lobby timers would occasionally display “00.”
- Corrected a persistent data issue where progress from a previous campaign profile would leak into new profiles created in the same save slot.
- Fixed a critical bug in tournament templates where moving units during the final second of the timer caused creature duplication or disappearance.
- Resolved an issue where players attacking neutral stacks just as a tournament timer expired would become unable to interact with those units post-battle.
- Addressed a rare stability issue that caused the AI to hang during its turn.
- Fixed a logic error regarding the interruption of simultaneous turns when casting spells on the adventure map.
- Tournament battle notifications now properly scale to accommodate text length.
- Corrected inaccurate data in the “Eternal Service” (Necromancy sub-skill) tooltip.
- Fixed a display error where the “Elite Liches” law failed to show the resurrection bonus in unit tooltips.
- Fixed a functionality bug preventing the “Ambassador’s Word” set bonus from triggering.
- Resolved a connection loss error occurring when one player uses the “Pit of Glory” while another moves a hero between slots.
- Fixed a UI overlap where scroll tooltips would persist over empty map cells.
- Enabled autobattle functionality for guarded objects in campaign mode.
New Features
- Added a confirmation dialog for the “Exit” button within the connection loss menu.
- Tactics Phase Saving: Unit formations are now saved for battles against AI opponents.
- Formations are unique to each hero.
- This feature applies specifically to standard battles against neutral forces; battles for objectives or against other players will retain default positioning.
- Formations are saved at the conclusion of the tactics phase.
- Should a position be blocked by a battlefield obstacle, the system will revert to the default placement.
- Placement logic is tied to the order of the army slots. Example: If you swap units between slots after a battle, the saved formation will adapt to the new unit assigned to that position.
- Enhanced movement animations and sound effects during the tactics phase.
Balance
- Reduced the damage scaling of the Avatar per Spell Power point. The modifier has been adjusted to 12–12/12–12/12–12. This is a temporary measure in preparation for a more comprehensive balance overhaul.
