Siege tower jam
For the second time i have tried to take over this Korinthos city with Siege towers and the two times i had to abort cos the troops get jammed at the tower and dont go in. Anyone has had this problem cos i saw this in RTW and thought it had been solved by now.
thx

Don't know, but it's not an EB issue. You could try using ladders instead?

Also, you could just repeatedly stop/start the stuck troops. Just click on wall, stop, click again, etc. Eventually you get them all up, though it can be REAL annoying when 3 of 4 siege tower groups stick leaving the poor bastards who know wtf to do to get slaughtered.

Re: Siege tower jam
Ladders? if the game gives u the option of siege towers then u should be able to use them properly so i guess that comment is a little goofy. As for pressing several times, that´s not a normal thing to do. I call that A BIG BUG THAT HASNT BEEN FIXED YET.

Re: Siege tower jam
Are you referring to the siege tower bug that occurs in vanilla where at apparently random towers the soldiers will not enter the tower or only do so after several attempts?
I do not believe anyone has ever worked out exactly what causes this. The bug fixed docking distance reportedly had a small effect on improvement but nothing major. The conclusion - as I understand it - was to mod out large stone walls/ epic stone walls or to replace the medium and large tower with a modded smaller one. I have not personally tested the problem as far as large towers/epic walls are concerned but it happens every so often with medium/large stone walls.
I'm sure EB are aware of this.

Re: Siege tower jam
The "not" function doesn't work properly in edb code either, and it should. It, like your tower problem, is not going to get fixed so there is no need for caps. Given that it is a known problem and there is no fixing it, I reckon that ladders are a good second choice.Originally Posted by neoiq5719

Re: Siege tower jam
My suggestion may look goofy to you, but it's still a valid workaround to a bug which is not ours. Trying to help. Often succeeding.

Re: Siege tower jam
has it ever occur to u that when u attack big fortresses or epic walls or whatever it is called, the ladder option has been GREYED OUT?
