Currently Sim player Druids are not using any damage spells anymore. Right now my Cyndara applies one singular dot and then just auto attacks forever refusing to use any other spells. Tested with other druids and the problem is persistent there as well. @frosty ermine and @blazing shale have noticed this issue is something they're actively experiencing as well.
#Serious Issue with Sim player Druid AI

It seems random when I recruit whether they'll be able to heal or not. Rerecruiting can restore the heal, but I haven't had them do anything else. No dots, no lightning. They're level 6.

Is there a way to see what spells your sim has learned? I believe my druid sim is now using spells they shouldnt have access to
namely tenebris
they also somehow learned the skill double attack which shouldnt be possible either
rare plaza
There's not a way to easily see it, I'll have to look at their skill loading code

i can take a look if you send me your sim

i can take a look if you send me your sim
golden quiver
now i got a stupid idea... simcodes to share sims between players
rare plaza
I believe I can use steam leaderboards api to load your character into your friends games as a simplayer
Leaderboard scores can be sent with like 64ints
look at that
tenebris flagged druid
rare plaza
ive got it
deep lodge
ive got it
i think they were using aetherstorm as well
or something from that skill line
golden quiver
rare plaza
man sned you're really a gift for finding these things
most skills are loaded at runtime
golden quiver
she does indeed know aetherstorm
rare plaza
golden quiver
yeah it's just a bit more time consuming
rare plaza
yep
fixing
this always has been a thing, its just the new damage spell selection is making it obvious
golden quiver
sunburst, as well
golden quiver
fracture?
deep lodge
ill just remove it from her save file
golden quiver
blazing shale
and yeah it looks like she has double attack from long ago
lol my arcanist still has minor healing from when it was shared with paladin
rare plaza
ill just remove it from her save file
the spells dont need to be fixed if theyre in her save, they load at runtime
blazing shale
golden quiver
she has this one twice
rare plaza
she has this one twice
possibly has it on an item but im really guessing i cant even remember if i put that on an item
i dont think i did
deep lodge
isnt that on eternox
rare plaza
thats a HOT i think
is that it?
yeah
need to unflag it as druid so they dont get it organically
golden quiver
doesn't them having it twice also mean they can cast it twice regardless of the other ones cd?
deep lodge
is venom of the asp also marked learnable for druid? I dont think thats normally attainable, its an item spell
golden quiver
i'll check since brian has aggro
its a status effect and "used by" is set to druid
i have no idea about that specifically
golden quiver
is protection also meant to be druid and arc?
i don't see anything else besides maybe regrowth having paladin
deep lodge
So I'm doing a fresh playthrough on a new character and im using lelirel for this play through and im still having the issue of him just standing there doing nothing. he auto attacks once every 10 seconds but refuses to cast any spells

Not healing at all either?
deep lodge
well the content i was doing wasnt doing enough damage for him to heal
he's definitely healing now and using spells but ive gained a few levels since then
rare plaza
Did he has a weapon in his MH? I've seen them get goofy when their MH is a book or something
deep lodge
yeah he had a book
i swapped him to a wand he still did the same thing though
he just auto attacked more frequently
rare plaza
You running standard group comp?
rare plaza
Druids don't cast offense if they're under 50% mana, wasn't that right?
deep lodge
yeah i think thats the case but he was full mana
rare plaza
Ok, I have some ideas where to look thanks
frosty ermine
Downloaded the patch and it still didn't fix lelirel for me.
@Sned Is lelirel broken on your existing save too? Or just new character?
At least he's healing again.
deep lodge
@Sned Is lelirel broken on your existing save too? Or just new character?
he was broken on my main save so i reset him because im testing out the leveling process right now and he was still broken even after i completely reset him
once he gained more levels he started attacking though so idk
frosty ermine
I switched to a different druid and they cast
Invited Lelirel back so I have both druids, now neither cast... Lelirel is like infected or something.
rare plaza

What level are you again?
rare plaza
i just reset leliril and grouped up with him and he's functioning ok, i do have some spells fixed on my end so ill push this update here shortly and see if it fixes him for you guys
rare plaza
ok i found the issue i think
deep lodge
Marsh Rot is another spell druids have access to that they shouldn't
golden quiver
i saw that one but somehow thought druids should have it
deep lodge
yea its an item only spell
frosty ermine
So I need to reset them after you update?
golden quiver
nope
frosty ermine
Hmm... I'll try validating files then.
rare plaza
Restart steam client will force the update
SimPlayer Druids were getting stuck in a loop of selecting an AE spell to cast but the conditions would not allow them to cast it. They would keep repeating that loop and essentially freeze up
Most noticable around level 6 when they get their new lightning spell
