Auto-Select Champion

Wow I think the champ mechanic in general is really fun, and I thank you for finally pushing that content to my server.


Auto-Select, however, has got to go.


I have tried turning it off with that check box going on thousands of times now.  Quite literally every action I take requires me to deselect an auto champ.  I have unchecked that box, rechecked that box, done the hokey-pokey.  I dont know what else to do, to actually make it not auto select something.


And, the most annoying part, is that when you go to take an action the  list of your castle/keep troops hangs a good 3 seconds while whatever algorithm runs to figure out what the best champ to send is.   In a game where sending armies at specific times is critical, having that hang, can mean all the difference in timing the arrival of your waves.


Just remove the auto send champ feature completely.  If you want to send a champ somewhere it should be very deliberate and also if it lags the game like crazy its just not worth having.

Send, then cancel ... this will prevent auto-select next time ( I discovered this by accident)


But I agree that the whole idea is just dumb


Either remove auto-select completely (nobody will every use it) ... or at least fix the check-box

Dear Lord

as Lord Snowgoon said you can do that or uncheck the box of autoselecting and then clicking on the button remove champion to avoid send it.

from that point, you will never send the champion again till you order it to go

hope this can help you

Regards

since this is not a bug if not the mechanic of the feature i move this post to game discussion

So completely not true - No disrespect intended, but did you test other champions, or check raids, sieges, liberate, spying and reinforce?
If your main champion is not auto-selected then you must have previously sent it (by accident?)


Unchecking the box does NOT prevent auto-select in the future
We need to manually remove champions every time

THIS IS A BUG

The problem is that the uncheck option is not working.  They've tried unchecking it but it's not stopping the autoselect process.

Hello!

I see that the case was already reported to the developers. In case they confirm a bug, it will be handled within one of the upcoming sprints. 

Thank you for this report!

So what happens if they are unable to 'confirm' the bug? ... which seems to happen with most bugs when checked only on the test server

I reported this on 11th FEBRUARY but Agent Pavel ignored me (as usual)

p.s. Every Raid or Siege will Auto-Select our Templar ... but Liberate Auto-Selects our Dryad

Would we not need an offense champions to liberate? haha
