Also animals on level zero spell ERROR, lol.

(0039340) Galap (reporter) 2019-04-20 20:37	Lol I didn't notice about the animals. that's really funny. Also thanks, disbanding the military has fixed it. I've reformed them with a functional (albeit tedious) workaround that I'll also post in the main thread. The workaround I've found that works so far is to assign every soldier specific items instead of anything generic, and have it replace clothing, exact matches. Basically If you tell them exactly what to equip, they will never try to put on the bugged items.

(0039341) risusinf (reporter) 2019-04-20 22:01	Hmm, seems like that should do it. Good thinking, thank you. Maybe you can set specific items only for bugged categories and leave the rest generic, just to make it less tedious.

Here's what i did: - disbanded all squads before unpausing - let it run for a minute so all merchants are out - military screen -> militia commander, create squad (there will be one unit), no uniform -> equip, replace clothing, exact matches -> armor, specific armor (list is corrupted), scrolling down to pick up steel mail shirt, enter -> escape out -> segfault The workaround might seem to work, as we know these segfaults are quite elusive depending on platform. I don't have Windows installed currently, so i can't check. Also there is a random pair of (large bronze chain leggings) in the middle of "specific armor" list, wtf. ============ Well, for me it even crashes when i create one peasant squad with no equipment whatsoever, disabled carrying food/drinks and completely cleared schedule.
