Hello, Well I searched the forum but couldn't find a relevant bug, so I hope it's not a duplicate. This happens sometimes, but quite often (4 times in the past hour). When playing a card, game sort of freezes. Can move around map, can press and open options, view cards etc, go fullscreen, but the battle is stuck. Cannot select target (if it is a attack card) or select move (if it is a move). It is like I click the card, for a split second there are the highlights for selecting target action, and then they're gone, but the card is still being "cast" and the game waits for me to select target. Only I can't so it's stuck there forever. Waited a LONG time (>10 mins) just in case it got unstuck. No luck. Tried with and without auto select of target. Also sometimes it doesn't even get to the point where the card is in the middle of the screen: I just see it "hovered" on the heroe's hand and game is stuck. This happens on latest Chrome (28.0) with latest flash player (11.7.700). It maybe due to my slow connection and it gets a timeout? But it happens under a second after I click the card to play it. It causes me to need to restart the browser, and get either a "retry" or a "revive party" option. Been trying to complete a 3-part adventure for an hour. It stucks on the 2nd or 3rd adventure randomly. It would be a good idea to implement some sort of "cancel action" button/shortcut (e.g escape key), AFTER selecting a card to play: For example click a move card, and after the move selection is visible, have a way to undo/cancel the card being played: i.e. play/"spend" the card after the target of the action is selected, and not on selecting/clicking the card. EXTREMELY annoying and game-breaking. Sample Screenshots: (can move map, click most things, but cannot select any targets, cancel the action, or select another card in any way: battle is "stuck" there):
You should still be able to cancel a card that requires chosing several targets and hasn't left your hand (such as the weak chop in your first screenie). Not being able to do even that sounds like issues related to connectivity - I think I recall some such temporary issues when the server was lagging a long time ago.
Hasn't happened while using multi-target cards, because I wanted to check if the "done/cancel" button stayed or disappeared with the target selections. It does seem like some sort of connectivity issue, cause sometimes it lags a bit between clicking a card and the card being played: and this seems a step more: it lags a tiny bit and freezes there. [EDIT]: Yeah, just noticed that the 1st screenshot I took was indeed of a multi target card: Notice it says select target 2 of 2 but there are not done and cancel buttons, or highlighted available targets.
So this happens quite a lot: at least a couple of times per adventure, meaning I usually have to replay battles or even the whole adventure from the start (option to revive party). This sucks cause I've played A LOT but have gotten very little XP. Also cause it's very frustrating. This also happens when playing with Firefox (seemed a bit less frequent but don't really know). Am I the only one with this problem? It is quite game breaking. I'll try to e.g upgrade to a beta flash player version or downgrade (if possible) to the 11.3 flash version ( IE still has this, so I'll also try to see if it happens in IE) Any other ideas to try anyone?
I frequently get a couple seconds of lag when playing cards, but actual disconnects are very rare. However, about once a day I'll get a loss because the battle never loaded in the first place (map never displayed).
