[FIXED] Minotaur King crashes the game

Start a random game, buy 10 minotaur kings and try to select one: It crashes every single time. the same happens when you create one later in the game and try to select it.

Edit:(Only happens with an High Elf Archmage white dress hero..)

New Edit: maybe it's a strange problem with generals (same problem with Dwarf lords and vampires). I've got glue for strange things... Maybe this is just pontual for me.

I was not able to reproduce this bug. Please provide more details (I have a feeling it's related to hero proficiency?).

Just that... Default proficiency.

It must be a problem with your hero since I still can't reproduce this bug. Was he created in 0.8.3 or was it imported from older versions?

this was created in 0.83. never get over level 10 and I've deleted him because of this problem. but i'm going to create another time the same hero and see if something new comes arround.

I think I might have had a similar problem with an Inquisitor but I'll do some more tests to double check.

Edit: Confirmed, I'm only having this bug with 1 hero (Knight Sage). Every time I select any of my Inquisitors, the game crashes. I don't remember if I made the hero in 0.8.3 but if I did, that could explain it.

I've managed to reproduce this bug on a 0.8.4 hero. This time, I have a Wood Elf Druid playing on one of my new WBC2 themed maps. Whenever I press r to show the hero's radius or whenever I select my Dryad, the game instantly crashes. Weirdly this bug doesn't occur when I select Phoenix. I have no idea whether I can select other generals or not though but I doubt it. I can provide my hero and save data if needed.

Another bug I've noticed is with the new auto unit-kill feature. It can make the AI sacrifice units which are attacking or converting.

More than that, the AI was also killing everyone if the game was paused for a long time. Fixed in 0.8.4 but thanks for the report anyway.

Something weird happened, later on in the game when my hero died I was capable of selecting the Dryad again .

Started a new game with the same hero, this time as the Orcs. Saved the game and selected a Red Mage, which crashed the game. This does not occur when selecting generals which belong to other players, only my generals. This bug is still present on my Wood Elf Druid and it would appear it occurs when I select any general at all. I'm not sure what the cause could be but I'll look into it.

After testing the bug again, it appears that the death of the hero allows me to select generals and see their command radii. This bug seems to be persistent and can only be circumvented by getting the hero killed on every map the player plays on.

Maybe this is unrelated but: What are the boots of your hero? The r thing  happened to me with some "?+1speed" boots with a daemon chieftan... but I could not save the game... damn!

She doesn't at the moment but it's possible she had some item on which gave Diplomacy/Fire Missile/Thievery. Since those are getting added in 0.8.4, I'm going to cross my fingers and hope that will fix the problem .

Just to check this out, I'm going to get a new hero and equip a Diplomacy/Fire Missile/Thievery skill item onto him to see if that's causing it.

I am getting really positive that this is all about conversion proficiency too. here. 3 heroes with that bug:

It was indeed a bug related to Conversion Proficiency. Fixed in 0.8.5. Topic closed.
