[exploit/0.951] Attacking enemies and movement

When I rightclick an enemy army to attack, two things can happen.

Scenario 1: I have just enough movement to attack the enemy. If they are adjacent to my army and they are in a plains tile, I need 1 movement to attack. When I right click on them, I attack them and when the battle ends, my unit remains in its original tile.

Scenario 2: I have more movement spare. If the enemy is adjacent to me and they are in a plains tile, I have 2 movement in this scenario. When I right click on them, my army instantly moves into the same tile they occupy and I get the popup to attack the enemy. If I press cancel when the fight popup appears, my army still loots any goodiehut in the tile but I don't need to fight the enemy army. I can use this exploit to loot any goodiehut or monster lair guarded by the most fierce of enemies, simply by thinking ahead and cancelling a fight.

I just started a new game and it didn't happen in the new game. I'll try to see if there's a way to reproduce it.

that sounds weird, never seen that happen :S.. meaby a freak of accident? (monsters trying to attack you, while you are attacking monsters).

Is it possible that this is occuring due to the movement of monsters being "delayed"? Is it possible that I am moving and it is attacking in the same moment (possible due to different threads perhaps?)?

Anyway I don't have a reliable way to reproduce it so bleh.
