hotfix for 12/18 version

[ZZMitch]

Hey so I also came across the units can't cross ocean bug. It's a really strange one actually (at least for me). I unlocked Astronomy during my last play session and have a few galleas and caravels exploring the ocean. When I started playing today my caravels were fine but my galleas were stuck in the middle of the ocean and had the can't explore oceans trait. So it seems like something got messed up somewhere lol!

Kind of a big issue since half my fleet is now broken :x

The warscore thing wasn't fixed and are still broken afaik.

bump because new build is up.

- fixed vanishing natural wonders
- more reliable warscore

regarding ocean crossing, this is the logic:
- if the unit has a promotion preventing ocean crossing, no deal
- a sea unit needs a promotion explicitly allowing it or the player can cross in general (polynesia trait or astronomy)
- a land unit needs a promotion to allow deep water embarkation or the player can cross in general (polynesia trait or astronomy)

Don't know if that was supposed to fix it, but it was supposed to do something and, as far as I can tell, nothing much has changed.

Am I the only one who still got the deep ocean issue with the hotfix ?

It feel like I will only be able to play on pangea for a moment.

Same issue here. Researched Compass and conscripted a Caravel within a few turns of that. The Caravel can't enter the ocean and is confined to the shallows. Makes the game unplayable for me.

I am still getting this. It seems to effect different games different ways.

My current game none of my units can go deep sea at all. In other games, they all of a sudden will be able to after not being able to when they are supposed to. I have no idea what the correction is.

I see some of the AI being able to...

Way it worked for me, after I researched Astronomy everything could cross Ocean, even if it wasn't supposed to (Galleass). Then when I reloaded the game, nothing could.

 

[ilteroi]

yeah. i just fixed a dual bug regarding ocean plots. the negative promotion was ignored and the after reloading all impassability flags were reset. sorry about that.

anyway, new version will be up in a minute.

I've tried Great Admirals with 27/12 version and they still can't enter ocean plots.

 

[ilteroi]

without astronomy you mean? that would be correct, as they don't have a promotion allowing deep water without astronomy. that could be added of course.

 

[Kolaris]

Thanks!

I don't think Great Admirals really need to enter ocean before Astronomy.

Yeah that was the exact bug I had.

 

[Gokudo01]

the fix seems to work this time
Thx

Yes, sorry to not be precise, without astronomy. They probably should be able (as have been usual in CBP) or if keeping the actual state this text need to be changed in the description:
"The Great Admiral can immediately cross oceans for free, making it a useful (if vulnerable) exploration vessel."

Hey! I've been playing this version after a long time without playing and loved it! Great work. Just want to report that I played Maya, and the Long Count didn't trigger after researching Mathematics (it didn't trigger at all in the full game).
Cheers

Are you guys using JFD's exploration continued expanded? I thought it was his mod that was doing it, because I added it at the same time as I installed this fixed DLL...

I don't touch ocean passability in ExCE, only Jungle.

 

[HammeredDog]

Still having the problem with my Caravels not being able to enter deep ocean before Astronomy. I've completely uninstalled and then reinstalled the 12-18 update and then copied in this hotfix, and cleared the cache. Still no joy. Since others are saying this worked for them, I can only assume I'm doing something wrong.
