Ahah, don't worry, I'm a software developer, I know I'll never thanks someone for reporting a bug ;) (but jokes aside, I'm glad to help)

This is still happening in Victor OpenDev

• Summary / Title: Stuck in battle during AI's turn
• Description: AI does not move their units, battle cannot proceed. It was a battle which was happening from one turn to another, and I managed to force a surrender on my opponent in the meantime. I tried saving and loading, but the issue persists, only changing which turn the AI stops moving their units. 
• Steps to Reproduce: I can't be sure if I know to reproduce it, as all other battles (including multi-turn and cancelled by surrender ones) happened without problems.
• Reproducibility: Once
• Expected Behavior: Battle should continue or be canceled, allowing the turn to end.

I can provide the save file if that helps.

Same here

I also just ran into this in Victor.

The AI attacked me and then remained stuck on "Opponent's Turn" after the deployment phase.

Same problem on launch. Is there a solution?

I have the same problem execpt its two seperate AI's attacking each other

The only way to fix it is to save and load the game but then it just continues as normal without counting any turns

Just happened to me also... thanks for the save load fix.

I can confirm this happening to me 3 times in my current playthrough.  (on about 12-15 battles)
Not exactly sure how, but I manage to fix it each time. But just re-assigning every action. 

I suspect it has to do with that although it seems like all your troops have an action assigned, one might not. 

Not sure if related, but 2 of the 3 times where it happens I have reinforcement joining in. 

I have the exact same issue at 90 turns

had this happen a few times once.

had this happened to me in the full release

Also occurring to me, but only during battles with the Mongols. It seemed to occur when I attacked with units that have Grappler/Boarding traits. I'm guessing that the AI sees that it has movement left, but can't take it due to the trait, and so gets frozen.

Same issue.  Combat just stops of AI turn.  

Have this happen several times now in the launched state of the game. 
The first time was actually my very first game in the launched game state. My 2-3 stack Nomab tribes attacking an animal. The animal never started its attack.

Now the last time this happened, I have several armies supporting in a Siege. Clicked "End Deployment", I can not click it again. Nothing else is happening. I can jump out. But Next turn button is stuck on this step.

Me loading up the same turn (70) and start the attack over do nothing different, same problem. 
Me loading up the turn before (69) still in siege, nothing happening. (The image above)
Me loading up turn 68 and do the seige differently works well do get around the problem being stuck. (Did not do the seige on that city first. Changed up my armies movement, attacking different targets)

Combat just stops of AI turn. 

Same issue happened to me.

Same here.
In single player it was once, when AI just couldnt move its unit to attack me, and he was simply stuck.
In multiplayer it occurs every 10 minutes, and we have to reload autosave. It seems like in multiplayer each battle has chance to have wrong control players, cuz some battles just finished automatically even if I didn't choose to end it like this, some battles are written "You are not participating here", but it's battle of MY army. And again you can't finish your turn in any way.

Also, in network play, when you are attacked by AI, battles are often completed automatically. AND 100 strength army against 90 strength army simply wins with NO losses even in health. And all you can do is just load autosave here. 60 turns game 2 ppl we already loaded like 15 times, it's insane to play like this ...

I noticed this thread is in "Bug Report Archives"
Probably is better to find a thread in "Bug Reports" to mention the issues.
I also noticed there are several posts regarding this bug mentioned.
Devs are aware of this bug and are working on it. Known issues page : Known Issues Page

Yup having exactly this problem...

I am also having this issue. It happens regularly enough even when the AI is thw aggressor. 

Same bug here !

I've got the same issue BUT managed to get a solution.

Stuck in battle. Solution:

1. Press the cross to go back to the world map.

2. Make a Save 

3. Load the recently made Save file 

4. Go back to the battle and watch the AI play his turn.

You're verry welcome :)

Solution not working for me. What i did notice is that the AI gave me a peace deal. 

The new BETA patch should fix some of these issues, so the best solution is to wait a bit.

Still facing this issue after the latest patch. This time, I had two battles initialized by AI in one round, and during the manual combat of one, the AI was stuck. The other manual battle went through and prompted me to wait end turn. But the stuck one couldn't be resolved without ending and reloading the previous save.

Yeah patch seems to have fixed for me... not seen since.

[PC/Steam, v.1.2.139] AI got stuck in battle.The bug still appears.

When I ended my turn in the battle, the AI made a few moves but then stoped and got stuck in battle because it stops making moves. I can't end the round becouse of the ongoing battle.

I tried reloading and restarting and played the battle diffrently but the AI just makes a few moves more or less and then gets stuck.

I don't think its important but I add a few Information about my game: Medieval Era / English / Round 99 / Map size idk / Fight animation tempo 1 / Singleplayer

I think the bug occurs when the AI has no attack oppurtunitys left and fails ending the battle turn.

The newest patch fixed the issue. Thank you very much :)

This is constantly happening to me and it is so infuriating :( The only way to *sometimes* fix it is save and reload and even then not always.  I have had to completely restart campaigns that just can't be played anymore because of this bug.

I had this happen today after the Nov 21 patch.  My turn in combat, moved a unit and then attacked with it and the battle stuck there with my unit 'thinking' about attacking.

December 2021 and this bug still happens.

That's sad, I bought this game 1 week ago and found a game-breaking bug.

so unfortunate. I tried different things, even going back a few saved games and didn't help.

I'm starting a new game but I hope this bug doesn't happen again.

December 6th and still have this issue on multiple unplayable campaigns. Rarely get to finish a long game because this issue will pop up and no matter how many times I reload the save a few turns back, the ai will attack me and get stuck on its turn. 

Same just happened to me, 06/03/22.

(Failed to upload the image for some reason)

But yeah it just happened to me too so the bug is still in the game.
