Well i think i get it
The error popped up because the archer seems to can’t attack building (or strangely, he got stuck in the building trying to go in maybe )
There is no problem with ennemy actualy

Edit : Well, " i think i get it" xD

Attacking ennemy is ok but when you try to attack building, the archer goes melee and block your soldier ! They end up stucking running without mooving, have to spam the moove flag to make them unstuck

[OlderThanBefore]

Ok guyz, i’ve something new over here, that spawned a little time after i cleaned a wolves goblin camp :o

It seems that your archer had something targeted but was unable to get Line of sight or the target was out of range and then did not take any action for 10 ai spins (which is the loop that runs the ai). The developers are still working out the bugs on the new combat units so hopefully they will address this one soon. Currently there is an issue which I have seen with the archer on inanimate objects, like goblin huts, treasure chest, and the stone fences surrounding the black cord necromancer encounter. They get right up on them and then stop, until one of the other units destroys it. I did see something where units that have an object/monster targeted and it dies gains xp. That may be what the xpcall portion is about, it may have not been able to resolve if the archer was suppose to get xp (but this is just a guess)

Hm so reporting these will actually help progress the game… Another city it is! thisgameisaddicting:c

[Simica_Na]

i am finding i am getting similar issues with the higher mobs as i do with archers

they are all stuck and I had the same ai spins error with them as you get with the archers

Summary:
I’m not sure why, but my archer decided they were frozen. I initially sent them to attack the crypt with my party, and I got a small error about them not being able to shoot the crypt with their bow. So after that, I closed it and kept fighting. They were fighting initially, and we killed a few cultists. My base got attacked by a Varanus, so I pulled everybody back with the move command, but now I get this error every time I load the save and try to move my archer.

Edit: After I reloaded 4 times, the archer finally moved. It’s a miracle! Also I stopped getting the error. Weird.

Edit #2: Just kidding. It happened right after I posted again. Same error.

I think he REALLY wants to break this fence.

Now these two really want in on the action.

THEY DID IT!

I think the problem is that archers try to melee attack buildings or objects, but they can’t physically melee attack things. It could be a range problem, or it could be a physical inability to melee attack. Lemme know what the actual problem is. They also get in the way of other hearthlings that melee attack, so that could be a problem.

You can probably fix it by having archers attack buildings from a distance, or not having them target them at all.

[Kiingy]

This problem is quite game breaking to the point I pretty much lost all motivation to play until its fixed.

I know, alpha is alpha, so i’ll wait. But please fix it soon? pretty please?

[Relyss]

I’m sure the devs will address this bug very soon, @Kiingy
Don’t worry.

[Redstarr225]

same issue here cause game errors xD

[krbrowning]

sending in reinforcements did not work. The original archer’s failure to break the chest locks them all in place.

[Redstarr225]

just move the archer alone with that tiny green arrow and should do it

[krbrowning]

Restarting the game resulted in the chest being broken and this error

Hi!
Thanks for reporting this.
can you please upload the save where it throws up that error on load?
In the mean time, I think using the console command ‘destroy’ on the chest will make it pop out loot and should hopefully free up your archers.

[Shurakai]

I noticed this as well, and it seems that a lot of times the pathfinding for the melee classes get stuck when trying to attack a destructable building.

[Geokhan]

I also had this issue with the goblin hut and treasure chest. It like he wants to melee it but can’t

[Maltavius]

This should be in the bugs section

[Ayla]

Just thought i would report it before i forget XD, i noticed that archers while they do destroy enemies they dont attack enemy walls, fences tomstones etc.
