The Elusive Attack Bug

[Retto]

 Okey...Here's the deal with the attack bug wherein only one side seems to be loosing troops -

I can't pin it down.

I put in some stuff to write out exactly what's happening, and...it worked right. Every time I tried. So I put that version of the attack page on all the servers.

If you continue to encounter it, let me know - As an admin account, I can set it to run the debug listing while I attack (so, you'd tell me: I wanted to attack ______, and the bug always happens then. Can you do it once for me and see what's up? and then I'd do it with the debug, and it'd show me how all the O&D points are apportioned, and what its using for the calculations for losses, etc..)

[Brain]

 I have seen this quite often too.  It is quite common that only the defender loses troop.  Even when both sides have lots of the military units, the attacker will lose nothing  Even on a failed attack, the attacker will lose 0 troops.  This is not good, and needs to be adressed.

There goes half my land... Bad buggy!

[Ashyra Nightwing]

 Yes... that bug doesn't affect me very much, as I don't lose much when I attack anyway.. but it's still a problem.

[Riverpaw]

 Ah... another K land lost... negative economy... fix it!

 Good Grief, that is insane.  That cannot be right.  Please, admins, fix this bug.

[Gen. Volkov]

 Nevertheless, that is what happened... it sucks big time.

 Yeah.. the only thing I can say is thankfully it was on turbo... on reg, I probably would have died in short order.

[Gen. Volkov]

 *Bump* You guys need to fix this...

[Gen. Volkov]

 *More bumpage* Sorry Peace.. but I think this is more important... you can't get around this one like the looting thing.
