Bug with saving (at least autosaving) and promotions.

February 22, 2013 9:24:23 AM from Elemental ForumsElemental Forums

Noticed this bug- will happen in rare instances, and this was level 4 so it might have been special.

 

If you save before picking a promotion, when you load again, you get the level but you do not get your promotion, nor a chance to pick again, so you effectively lose the promotion.

How are you saving, do you mean if you quick save while the levelup screen is up?

This effectively removes the exploit of saving and reloading until you get what you want. Working as designed. I wish they would put more things in the save/reload function so one can't cheat or exploit the game.

Your font is so small, I can hardly read it. Why did you reduce it to almost normal size?

because when I open the post window it's this small and I can't read it. sooooooo I use 3 font 12pt and I can read this can't you? Any other non-important questions you want to ask me now?
