I'll check regarding the universities. It's strange if they only appear in 1.5.3 and not in 1.5.0.

Regarding the bird, it would be helpful to attach a battle save and describe the actions in the battle so that it can be reproduced. Otherwise, it's more likely that it's an unnoticed morale boost at 5 speed or something similar.

Please confirm, the Earth magic book does not contain the "City Portal" spell. Is this a bug?

Unlikely. It’s probably because this spell is prohibited on the map.

Exactly! I checked the scenario, and indeed, there's no checkmark for "Town Portal" in the spells. But I'm watching a video on YouTube, and they're using the Town Portal spell on this map... Is there an older version of the game where this spell works and is in the Earth magic book? Or is this not dependent on the Heroes version?

This was done a long time ago. But it only works on HotA maps. On maps from the SoD version, spells from books are not removed. So, there shouldn't be any problems with this, unless you modified the map in the map editor.

Such old versions are not stored anywhere. Maybe they can be found somewhere, but I can't help you with that.

Yes, I modified the map... It's the "Horn of the Abyss" map. From which version of HotA did this feature appear, where a spell is removed from the spellbook when it's banned in the scenario?

Maybe there's something that can be "tweaked" to make it work? Like, writing or changing something in the game files...

Well, if you were editing the map anyway, it would be easier to give the player a town portal in some other way. Or allow this spell on the map, but prohibit it in towns and remove random scrolls, random mages, etc. Or find the original version of the map (which hasn't been converted to the "Horn of the Abyss" format yet).

I don't remember which version it appeared in, but it was a long time ago, and it's unlikely that you'll be able to easily find such an old version.

The thing is, I've already progressed quite far, and I don't want to start over... Is there any way to fix/add something to the map so that I can use the portal without having to start over?

In this situation, it is absolutely impossible. And the old version won't help either – it won't be able to load a save from the new version.

I don't know if this has been mentioned before, but if it has, please delete the messages. Cheats in single-player mode work in online mode. At least one of them does (for fully upgrading a building). There were no admins, but since there was a moderator in the lobby, good people showed up. Here's how it's done: Start an online game, and start a single-player game in parallel. In the single-player game, type "nwczion," and then close it. The next day, in the online game, all the buildings will be fully upgraded. I request that this be fixed as soon as possible, as the bug is spreading quickly.

Recently, I've encountered a rather unpleasant issue a couple of times. The game starts loading messages (sometimes I can't even understand why, as I didn't initiate it myself). And there's no way to exit. Nothing works. Neither Enter, Tab, nor Escape helps. I can't save the game or do anything at all. It's not a very pleasant situation; in the game, both times, I couldn't figure out anything to do except abruptly close it. Then I have to restart the battle.gm2 process, which (especially in a tournament) doesn't look very good.
Has anyone else encountered this and know a solution?

I know of a similar bug:

When you click on the hint bar (which is also the chat input bar) on the adventure map, the developers likely intended for it to start the chat text input (like when you press Tab). However, this is implemented with a bug, and when you click on this bar, the keyboard switches to input mode (the spacebar and other keys don't work), but the text is also not entered. In the hint/input bar itself, hints for objects and other text are not displayed, and after the screen is updated (switching the current hero, etc.), an underscore starts to appear, as if you were starting to enter text.

This mode cannot be canceled with the spacebar or Enter. However, if you press Tab, it switches to normal text input mode, where you can enter text, send it with Enter, or cancel with Esc.

So, to exit this situation, you need to press Tab and then Esc.

I have occasionally seen this bug on streams; it mainly interferes with the non-working spacebar and the non-displayed hints. However, there are no problems with saving the game or exiting (the S hotkey, of course, doesn't work, nor do Esc and F4 for minimizing the game, but you can still save/exit with the mouse). Perhaps this is a different type of bug.

I would also like to note that, apparently, during this situation, the HD hotkeys work, and the original game's hotkeys do not. In any case, not all hotkeys stop working.

Hello everyone.
Recently, I've encountered a bug several times where the "Tournament Rules" checkbox gets reset.
The game starts with it enabled, but it gets disabled during the first week.
If I load daily saves, the checkbox is present on days 111-114, but it's gone on day 115.
Also, after the checkbox disappears, I can see skills in the University, even though it hasn't been explored or visited.

I have a question. When wearing a cloak that grants +3 rounds of spell duration, the ogre-mages cast Bloodlust for six rounds instead of three. Is this intended? Is it a feature?

Ogres always cast spells at level 6, and so do master djinns. Negative spells and wizard spells are cast at level 3.
