[Resolved] Enemy unable to flee: B&E mission

[ushas]

(v16, linux, HB, 24 July, map 4 conf 2: B&E mission)

Looks like the game will freeze when enemies try to flee this map, see the attached image where the Mafia guy ended reaching the wall. In the log it says like he fled but he didn't. Well, the battle area is closed. Despite the self-preservation call he cannot into scaling wall.

Some log output:

An interesting thing is that this happens to me on danger 2 & 3 tiles but not when I undertook this mission on danger 1 tile (enemies fleeing just fine). Still, I dunno if really related to danger or number of enemies. Other things to consider: enemies being on fire, potentially blocking the path (not sure how big the fleeing area is), smoke...

Looks like some issue with accessing the character icons. I'll recreate and figure out what's going wrong.

[Daithi]

Haven't been able to replicate this so far. Can I ask how many party members you had, and whether you launched from console?

[Daithi]

Ran another test: full party, danger level 2, forced all to flee, no crashes. Will keep an eye out for this bug when testing.

[ushas]

Uff, must have been tricky to force them all flee.

It was 3 party members. I thought it happened initially naturally on danger 3 tile, but wasn't paying attention to the distinction at the time yet, so it's possible it was the console all the time.

Loaded autosave I sent you via e-mail while back. Got it on the first try on danger 2 tile using console. Probably unrelated: it hadn't stopped at the fleeing unit's turn, but on the next one's who was due to have health reduced from fire.

[Daithi]

Very high probability this relates to combat queue issue, which is fixed.
