This patch release addresses some critical issues in the combat tracker. Under some conditions Delaying combatant could cause lockups on the internal tracker. While the UI was still active, no further command would work.

As a means to contain this and other potential problem, the tracker now handles exceptions in order to avoid the lockup. This should make the Virtual Combat Cards much more stable and allows undo and redo operation to try to work around eventual errors causing actions.

  • #75: Lockup on Move up after Move up: Closely related to issue #85, trying to work around this issue improves the error handling inside the tracker. This should leave it more stable.
  • #84: Changing initiative order: This is a important feature request to help implement the Guileful swith Warlord power.
  • #85: Lockup on Delay: As part of the work to figure out what was happening on issue #75, we discovered two real bugs: dead delaying combatants could cause hang ups and due to a race condition in the user interface the end round button was active when it should not be.

Many thanks to joeman for his help on issue #85: Lockup on Delay and #75: Lockup on Move up after Move up.
