Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Yeah, [remove_object] breaks LotI items effects. Most of them (except the most basic I think) are installed by the update_stats lua function, so it should be called in such cases. And a third-party mod that knows nothing about LotI obviously doesn't do itToranks wrote: ↑March 20th, 2023, 5:30 pm
Thanks, I just wanted to know if there were any known bugs so I know where to look, and in the end it wasn't the campaign but an addon that does an [remove_object] which apparently rebuilds the unit without the equipped items.I figured out the cause and will look for a fix.

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Oh, thanks! This tested piece of code can restore all items easily with any addon that use [remove_object] or [transform_unit] or similar, to not interfere with LOTI:dwarftough wrote: ↑March 20th, 2023, 6:02 pm Yeah, [remove_object] breaks LotI items effects.

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Doom ability works on the player? An enemy with the doom ability hits on me on any unit and does not reduce my resistances. I've tested with many units and nothing. If the owner of the ability is the player (me), the ability works on my enemies.

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Does an enemy hit you on offense? Or when defending? Doom works only on offense

Oh, you're right. I've discovered that weapon specials that produce some sort of curse or handicap are supposed to be until the next advancement:
- Only applies on offense.
- They can be applied more than once, they are cumulative.
- They are not cured by advancements, or any other way that I know of. > Caused by an addon
Why is it so? Example: doom, mahyem, trickery...

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Thanks to the conversation on Discord with @dwarftough, I found out that the third point (not cured) was due to an addon.
The other two remain true, and are not clarified anywhere. I would add one more question in the FAQ such as:
How do potion effects work?
Temporary effects last as long as it says, permanent effects are erased at the next advancement.
How do doom and other ability curses work?
The curses only applies on offense, are cumulative (you can have several), and they are all erased in the next advance.

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Well, I think they are all temporary then...
There was an explanation in the Tutorial about potions

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Love the campaign I've played through both several times now over the last few years. One question and one request if it isn't too much.
The paladin advancement use to be to some male flying version like the female celestrial messenger, now its a guy on the horse call prophet. Is there another advancement to get to the flying guys or were they eliminated? they were my favorite.
Some other campaigns have a query if you want to skip the dialogs, having played several times, this would be nice.
thanks!

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
I don't know if it was like that long time ago or you just confused things, but Celestial Messengers are advanced from White Mages, not from Paladins.

Note that you can skip dialogs with the Escape key (at least, for the desktop version - there might not be a way to do it on mobile devices).

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Actually, don't at least some potions remain in effect for at least some units (Efraim in particular), at least early on until they advance to a certain level?dwarftough wrote: ↑March 25th, 2023, 9:25 pmWell, I think they are all temporary then...

In particular, I'm thinking of the heal and +10HP, the HP bonus does not go away when he takes additional AMLAs. I used to take those a lot in the early game when he is rather weak and I want to advance him quickly (extra HP lets him fight more).
Or has this changed?
Or do I not understand the definition of "advancement", or maybe it's different for your heroes?

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Well, with all the bugs, the situation is: potion effects go away after an AMLA received (not an advancement to the next level, AMLA only, when you pick one option from a long list of upgrades) if your unit got it on your turn (so if an enemy overfills your unit's XP during the enemy turn, it doesn't remove potion effects)white_haired_uncle wrote: ↑March 28th, 2023, 3:59 amActually, don't at least some potions remain in effect for at least some units (Efraim in particular), at least early on until they advance to a certain level?dwarftough wrote: ↑March 25th, 2023, 9:25 pmWell, I think they are all temporary then...

Re: Legend of the Invincibles
Read my question again plz. There was a male version LIKE the celestial messenger (except they didn't animate the flying, just had static wings) and it was an advancement from Paladin. I am 100% certain of the advancement path. This was only a couple years ago although it was a raspberry pi distrobution so it might have been based on an older version. I heavily used roving combos of 2-3 of thesedwarftough wrote: ↑March 27th, 2023, 12:00 amI don't know if it was like that long time ago or you just confused things, but Celestial Messengers are advanced from White Mages, not from Paladins.
white flying male with one celestial messenger are larger maps with mountains as they had 1 movement everywhere. These paladin advanced units didn't heal, so I would keep a celestial messenger with them for healing.
I've looked through the github files. I must be in an alternate reality.
