Hi,
I'm playing as Casse and the year is 257BC (Summer). Whenever I end the turn the game crashes. I have duplicated this loads of times and nothing I do seems to stop this. It crashes when it reaches Getai. I've also tried turning the background script on and off but this has no effect. Can anyone help?

There's some kind of bug with AI armies moving into the same spot that causes the game to crash.

There's a way to get around it: take control of the AI faction and manually merge the armies yourself.

I thought I posted this here at the Org, but I don't know where.



[open] data\scripts\show_me\EBBS_SCRIPT.txt.

Near the very beginning, you will find:

;VII) Allied rebel cities
;VIII) Reforms


; Note for self
Replace this with:

;VII) Allied rebel cities
;VIII) Reforms

console_command toggle_fow ; omit this line if you play with fog of war off
console_command toggle_perfect_spy
console_command control [FACTION]

; Note for self
[FACTION] corresponds to the faction whose turn the game crashes on. If, for instance, the game crashes as soon as the Eleutheroi turn starts, the line should read "console_command control slave". The list of internal faction names is as follows:

Romani = seleucid
Yuezhi = pontus
Arverni = scythia
Makedonia = macedon
Ptolemaioi = numidia
Arche Seleukideia = romans_julii
Qarthadastim = egypt
Pahlava = parthia
Pontos = carthage
Aedui = gauls
Sweboz = germans
Casse = britons
Hayasdan = romans_scipii
Getia = dacia
Koinon Hellenon = greek_cities
Baktria = romans_brutii
Sauromatae = armenia
Iberia = spain
Epeiros = thrace
Eleutheroi = slaveNow start up EB and load your saved game. Your turn should immediately end, and the game should progress until you get to the faction that's causing the problem. If it crashes before you get there, you picked the wrong faction—go back to ebbs_script.txt and change the faction to the one before the one you chose and reload the save. Once you get the right faction, you should be in control of the troublemaker.

Now start fiddling. Move around your armies, do stuff. Eventually, something or other you do should cause the game to crash. If not, well, you tried. Either way, give yourself a pat on the back and remove the three added lines from ebbs_script.txt so you can play normally.

Now come back here and make your report. Do all the details: say which save you examined, exactly what steps you took. This will help us figure out what went wrong.

This thread describes how this has worked out for people:

I was beseiging a city (the one north of Ratae), I lifted the seige and that solved the problem.

I played as Casse. I had a few problems with it. My computer has never crashed playing these games. It crashed playing as Casse around 262 BC I think it was.

I can reload my saved game and it'll crash in the same spot again. I reload 2 or 3 more times and it finally works.

Also, the prices for buildings are ridiculous. 8,000 minai for I guess it's a warlords keep or whatever. I can't remember the name of these things.

The only price for a building that seemed logical was the level 1 road.

ANd that's about it for me.

Thank you.
