Summary0000051: Target creature loses stack size box from the moment the enemy shoots at it, or even starts to walk/fly towards it
Description0.72#48 - Target creature loses stack size box from the moment the enemy shoots at it, or even starts to walk/fly towards it:

In H3 only the stack number boxes of the attacking/moving creatures temporary disappear during the attack/move. Target creatures stack number box should remain displayed until the moment of the impact, when it disappears just for a fraction of the second in order to be updated accordingly (depending on casualties suffered).
Steps To Reproduce
Additional InformationReported by Zamolxis: http://forum.vcmi.eu/viewtopic.php?p=2874#2874 [^]

The problem is that amount of creatures in stack is updated (as effect of an attack/spell) before animation is displayed.
TagsNo tags attached.

Same issue for attacking creatures, in case the target will retaliate. Basically both the attacking and the target creature lose stack numbers before the actual animation starts.

EDIT: Can this be looked at for one of the next releases (before 0.9)? It's such an obvious bug of high frequency, that we won't escape more duplicate reports on it if not fixed.

Looks like this has been fixed in 0.84, probably together with 0000136 & 0000185
