Hey i just got this game yesterday and there is a strange bug...
after my chieftan died once and respawned, he wouldn't move. i would point him a target but he just stood there, getting hungry and eventually killing himself again.
the thing is, if I point the camera away form him, he starts to move. but if I get a little close he just freezes there.
I know a crazy bug, but it beats the crap out of me. i need the chieftan to impress other tribes :|

sounds strange.
i think this bug needs a name.
lets call it: the Mario Ghost Bug! =)
*scnr*

can you give us some more information?
what did you do as he died?

i heard from ppl that they had problems occuring after they killed an epic monster.

no an epic dodo attacked once but then he just waked away i didnt kill it...not that it was possible anyway

the bug wasn't critical anyway, i still advanced to the civilization stage(right now im starting space) but it was pretty much annoying at the time.

more information: the chieftan just WOULD'T MOVE. and i thought to hell with him. il just wait till he gets hungry and dies. well then it appeared he COULD move, but only when the camera wasn't directly over him, about 10-15 meters away. if he got too close to the camera he froze once again. it happened when i had only 1 tribe left to impress.

so i had to do it almost blindly, orienting on th eminimap. hopefully it works fine now, after i started a new game and advanced to the tribal stage. but if it happens agian when theres one tribe fleft to conquer, im gonna be ****ed
