Where'd Pontius Go?

[dpt24]

In the spring of 296 BC Gaius Pontius disappeared in the Third Samnite War scenario. I got a message saying that a new, great warlord was arriving and he was gone. The other guy didn't show up either. Is this a bug, or is Pontius going to show up again? He shouldn't be gone yet, in reality he fought on until the very end of the war.

Hi

Can you post a save(with at least one backup) of the turn where Pontus was removed ? (And/or a scriptreport ?)

Thanks

Checking these events, they should work like this:
- in February 296 Gaius Pontius is replaced by Gaius Egnatius, that should appear, alone, in the same location as the largest samnite stack. In my test, this is working.
- Then, if Egnatius is killed, he will be replaced by Pontius Minor (son of Pontius). This second event was not working as expected, as he would appear even if Egnatius is still alive - fixed for the next patch.

If you have found that somehow Egnatius does not appear as it should when Pontius is removed, please post a save of that turn plus a backup, please

How do you post a save file again? Also why does Pointus leave? If I remember correctly he stayed in the conflict and in fact was captured and killed late in the war? Shouldn't the samnites get both leaders?
