I would like to see your diagnostic html files. They are located in "Documents\Endless Legend\Temporary Files" (the 4 html files). I have tracked down the issue, but I dont know yet what causes it exactly, will look into more tomorrow and probably provide a beta version with a hotfix.

Diagnostics (2020'07'17 @2239'23'').htmlDiagnostics (2020'07'17 @1227'49'').htmlDiagnostics (2020'07'16 @1547'11'').htmlDiagnostics (2020'07'15 @2101'41'').html

Here you go. Presumably the last 2 files are from the old ELPC version before I installed the new version and started a new game

There are several headscratchers in these Diagnostic files. First of all, the hash key of version 2.6.0 should be "52848886499AE6CAB338B7460CEE097E" but the one of your files reads 

Runtime hash key = 'CE1AC5D9EAA2559A1BFDE0BD63E27E3F'.

This either means you modded your files (in which case you probably made a mistake), or something went wrong when installing elcp. There are also some strange (and for me unreproducable) errormessages concerning hero abilities. Did you modify the hero profiles? Anyway, my standard advice to fix this is: delete all the contents of your public folder, then use "verify integrity of your files" and once thats finished, install ELCP over it again. Please keep in mind that if you use the zip-Installation, that files have to be replaced by the ones in the zip package.

Hey,

I did an uninstall of ELPC, verify via Steam, then new ELPC installer install.

I did modify one file which is the hero abilities file (for generation of new heroes and their abilities) and appear to have set a few level 3 where these don't exist. But everything else is vanilla

That's probably why the hash doesn't match!

Haven't modified other files though (I previously modified the quests file to increase number of total occurences for quests only)

The faulty modding could easily be the cause of your issues if the update function attached to it aborted. You'll have to restart the game again and check again. You should consider making a proper mod so you dont always have to redo your changes again when you install a new version. And always check the diagnostics for errors like these if you do changes.

If you already have a mod that does this, why would it need to be in ELCP? This is a very specific flavor that only some people will enjoy.

You didn't even click the link? :)

Oh its a civ mod. Well still, this is outside ELCP's scope and can easily be done via xml modding, so a similar mod for ELs workshop wouldnt be too hard, but I dont have the time to do it.

Hi there.
Thanks for the amazing mod, makes quite a difference.

Is it a vanilla thing that sometimes AI spams settlers (I reported it here https://www.games2gether.com/amplitude-studios/endless-legend/forums/115-bug-reports/threads/36611-ai-settler-spam )?
Can it be fixed?

Does using the installer just merges the mod with the files without needing to enable it?

Settler spam was a famous bug in the vanilla game which shouldnt happen anymore in ELCP. If it still does I would need a savegame, maybe I can see whats going on. 

Lightjolly:
ELCP is always active until you uninstall it

@saamohod
I had a look at your save and found the reason for the bug slipping through again. The AI doesnt count settlers that are garrisoned in camps when trying to figure out how many it already has, leading to an infinite loop. Luckily this behavior should rarely happen (this is the first time it has been reported since my last fixes to the colonization AI).

I already answered your other question on reddit, but for everyone else reading: I will make the AI a bit smarter when activating that revamped quest in the future so it doesnt tend to kill  itself on lower difficulties.

@LeaderEnemyBoss
Do I understand you correctly that the bug is rare because there is only one faction that can build camps (Kapaku)? In this case the bug would really be rare in general, but frequent among Kapaku AI.
Correct me if I'm wrong, that's what I managed to gather from your previous post.

Its rare because only Kapaku AI can encounter it and it should be rare even for them as they only park settlers in camps under specific circumstances. At least I have never encountered itr before. I am still fixing it for the next version ofcourse (and have already done so in my internal build).

Sounds great.

Looking forward to the next release.
