Promotion is not working

[zeinul]

As you can see I have formation II promotion, but i'm not getting any bonuses vs horseman. Something somewhere was broken.

got formation III promotion - still no bonus.

Ok. Problem noted. Will look into this soon.

Ok some more info on this.

This bug happens with formation, shock and cover. Haven't tested anything else yet.

If I get a promotion I get the bonus for the first fight. Then it's 0 for the rest of the game.

I wondered if shock and other vs Combat Class promos were falling into this same issue.

Very odd getting the bonus for the first but then 0 for the rest of the game... VERY odd indeed. I was wondering if the issue was purely a display issue but with that mention it sounds more like an actual processing issue. Very curious indeed!

@Koshling: I haven't had a chance to look at the code at all but does this behavior trigger any suspicions as to what could be procedurally incorrect somewhere?

Not really - you'll nee to watch it happen under the debugger with a break point set on losing a promotion to see why.

some more update. the promotions don't work on ambusher only.

Wow... that's ... odd. But it helps to know!

might want to double check the other criminal units as well. Maybe its some sort of TAG weirdness.

I figure it may have something to do with the Invisibility somehow actually. I think I may know where it's taking place in the code and is based on the defender not being able to determine the player identity of the attacking unit and Combat Class being included in that segmented routine. Should be an easy fix when I get a chance to go take a look at it and confirm or deny my suspicions.
