Nice! Want a quick tour of this page too?
New here? I'm Roha — want a quick tour?
Could you please elaborate on how it disappears and then reappears in the spellbook?
How could it be more detailed? The person wrote that they haven't played the third game in a long time and haven't encountered any scrolls... So, they simply made a mistake; nothing disappears into thin air...
And here they are telling me what a powerful bug it is to sell scrolls at an inflated price, especially at the start of the game. This bug has little impact in an off-tournament (unless a very specific map is encountered). The most powerful bug imho is double cast — checking every battle for magic consumption is no easy task, as is balancing the books on money, by the way.
You understood perfectly correctly: if the scroll is on a hero, you can sell it, but if it's in the backpack, you need to first free up space on the hero, then move the scroll(s) to the empty slots on the hero, and then you can sell it again!
Life, dear Iron Axe, is not just about playing games on this resource; people play everywhere, and not just in offline tournaments, which is why I'm writing in GENERAL. For me personally, the bug with selling is the most significant because the double-cast bug has long been forgotten, as it doesn't even exist in 3.2. That's how it is. And by the beginning of the game, I mean, for example, the third week. I think it's quite possible to gather a few scrolls and get some powerful artifact in a couple of weeks. :smile01:
I hope that the respected participants will pay as much attention to the issue of completing the tournament map as they do to the issue of bugs.
Aha! "your words, and to God"

That's exactly what I'm talking about. The rules should be clear and not contain phrases like: "It is forbidden to use bugs," when, as we can see, many people don't know not only about specific bugs but also what a bug even is. :)
For example, I don't know what version of the game I have (pirated or not) - it's not written anywhere, but it can't be patched. And here's an example: the Ballista bug:
I'm fighting against slow units (they're all in one group), I have one fast unit and a ballista - there are no ammunition carts. The fast unit moves this group of monsters around the battlefield so that the monsters can't catch it, but they also don't attack the ballista. The ballista shoots at the monsters. The ballista has 24 shots. But what I see is that when the bullets run out, the ballista still shoots, and the remaining number of shots continues to be counted, only it goes into negative values (-1, -2, -3, etc.) and continues to deal damage to the enemy. The battle can theoretically be won, and with enough persistence and patience, it can be won in practice. Did many people know about this? Why shouldn't I use this in the game - it's clearly not forbidden. Let's say I'm so honest :) that I won't use it, but where is my guarantee that another player won't accidentally use it? Well, he doesn't look at the remaining number of shots - he just runs around and that's it. This isn't in the list of forbidden bugs, and the player isn't to blame for not being observant. And what am I to blame for, why should I be in unequal conditions with this player? If the bug were clearly forbidden, then we would all be in equal conditions. So, the question is - should I continue to shoot the ballista without ammunition or not? :D The rules don't say anything about this. And I don't know if it's a bug or not - maybe it's just a clever magical ballista. :)
PS: And what exactly is the violation on the part of the player? He has the right to attack with a ballista and one unit against superior forces - he does. Then he simply doesn't want his unit to be killed and runs around. He can't stop the ballista - it shoots automatically. And so what? What is the violation? I also want to ask those who have a normal, patched version - is this bug (or not a bug) fixed there or not? If it's not difficult, please take a look.
And another question: Can I play on version 3.1, or is version 3.2 required? I just wanted to patch to 3.2, but the patch wouldn't install.
I also have version 4.0; can I play on it instead of 3.2? After all, the higher the version, the more bugs are fixed in the lower versions...
I don't think discussing bugs is a bad thing. There should be a clear list of prohibited bugs and allowed features in the rules. And I hope we will come to that. VDV_forever, in my opinion, understood this.
