Hi everyone,

I have Champions of Midgard in alpha at the moment, looking for a developer who is willing to help me out with a few of the major open bugs at the moment. I am in lack of time and could use someone with a fresh pair of eyes to fix a few bugs, mainly with the combat phase of the game.

Any help is greatly appreciated! This game is almost ready for release, so it would be a shame not to get it just perfect!

Thanks in advance!

I can take a peek, do you have a list of the bugs that you want help with?

Hi TheBoot, thanks for the help!

LInk to bugs: https://boardgamearena.com/bugs?game=1322

It's about bug 30313 and 30476.
To be honest I think they are the same problem, but since I'm not sure I have kept them both open.
Since most of the tables in alpha that have this problem are not opening, I'm having trouble finding a decent starting point to investigate.

The bug appears to happen during combat phase, probably in combination with a kraken journey card.
I have not been able to reproduce this on dev. version, I suspect it has something to do with an action that took place in a previous round and some flag somewhere not properly being reset.

Let me know what you need.

We've tried this game a few times and there's more than just a few bugs. We've yet to make it through an entire session without the game just stopping. It's one of my favorite board games too.

Any further activity on this? The game looks great in BGA, and plays great up until it hangs on this bug. I would really hate to see all this effort on such a great game go to waste.

I'm gonna have a look at this game...
It's gonna take some time.

Thanks so much to the group restarting this effort!! Such a great game - very excited to see activity again!

Yes, thanks! This has become one of my favorite games in real life, and I'm delighted to be able to play it here, but the already reported bugs need to be swatted first at this point.

Hi

I've fixed some major bugs causing games to hang out but it's not my game.

I hope that hul007 will go on and finish the game's implementation especially because it's nearly done.

BGA might be refused another licence next time they contact Grey Fox Games if it stands this way...

tchobella, thanks for fixing the showstoppers! That's a big help and encouragement for people to keep testing it.

Is there any recourse for a developer such as yourself to assume permanent control of the code to finish this game? Doing so would help ensure a good working relationship with the publisher (on the other hand, a game like El Grande is an example of the publisher not holding up their end of the relationship very well).

The only other big bug I encountered is that Destiny cards don't seem to be scoring their proper value and only count for one point apiece instead of full value, lesser value, or 0.
