Stuck Characters

[Lunocraft]

I was in a town telling 3 of my characters to run to the outskirts just past the wall. Two of them, however, somehow glitched on top of the wall and they can't get down (sadly it was my 2 men with large backpacks that I bought along with my purchase of all the building materials I could burden them with, bringing me back down to a level that makes poverty look rich). After struggling for 40 minutes trying to glitch them back down, since they pretty much held my entire fortune at stake, I was to no avail. Soon I noticed npc's falling into the same deadly and mysterious trap where the poor souls will have starve to death up there with my two men. At least they brought a pack of cards As an idea that might help fix this, would it be possible to have each wall ramparts have a small narrow staircase to get down in case such an event happens again? Anything that could fix this problem along with a future fix, just in case, would be greatly appreciated. Also yes, I saved thinking they were below the wall because I was zoomed out so far they were not visible. So I can't revert back :\ Anyways, thanks for reading and I look forward to your response!

one work around for any stuck characters is to have them get as close to an edge as possible and have a free character pick them up and carry the stuck character. To do this, have the free toon selected and hold right mouse button over the stuck toon and select "pick up". This works when my toons get stuck on top of mines and inside the mine processor but I have not had the pleasure of being stuck in a wall this trick may still help.

also reloading a save and choosing to respawn all characters works well, though sometimes it puts you in a town far away from where you were.

Hope this helps, good luck.

Thanks for the workaround tip. I had three of my townsmen get stuck in the mine; including my best swordsmen!
