Summary0000140: Crash when my (2-hex) Dread Knight retaliated against a Wraith attacking from up-behind
DescriptionIt seems not all issues regarding attacks on 2-hex creatures have been solved.

In the map I attached to report 0000139, when I attacked Isra with Septienna, after moving the Dread Knight closer (so that it can be attacked from all directions), the game crashed when he retaliated against a Wraith which attack him from the hex up-behind.

See attached crash logs and first screenshot: http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/Zamolxis/VCMI/VCMI%2007/2009-10-11_WraithAttackDNfromBehind.jpg [^] (luckily the 'dying' Wraith can be seen in the crash-freeze to confirm its position)

Steps to reproduce (always reproducible if the enemy placement is like I describe below):
- Take map attached to 0000139 and attack Isra with Septienna
- Wait on all your creatures and let the Wraiths come closer (PAY ATTENTION WHICH WAS THE FIRST ENEMY WRAITH TO MOVE)
- If the first Wraith to move has placed itself in such a way that you can move your Dread Knight in the hex down-behind her, then do so
- When enemy's turn comes, that first Wraith will try to attack your Dread Knight from the up-behind hex and you should have the crash

This is the screenshot of the reproduced bug, where I marked the places of the first Wraith (in green) and the Dread Knight (in red): http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y104/Zamolxis/VCMI/VCMI%2007/2009-10-11_WraithAttackDNfromBeh-1.jpg [^] (the body of the unit disappeared when I moved away the crashhandler pop up for a better view)

I did not manage to get the chance to place the Dread Knight really behind the Wraith to see if it occurs as well, but when I placed it on other hexes around the first Wraith, the bug did not reoccur.

I think it's not related to two-hexness. Trying to reproduce this bug I noticed that in certain situations two different creatures can be placed on the same position - one alive and one (or even more) dead. VCMI does not handle it correctly in all places.

I was able to reproduce it in old version but it does not appear in newer one. Seems to be fixed.
