Is this normal?

[just4]

Love the mod, but it is normal for my movement to often be 20% of what it should be? I'm wondering whether it was made so you get a really bad movement penalty if you're not on home turf, but it seems that 50% of my turns I can only move 4 or 5 spaces instead of 20 and it seems pretty harsh. The other 50% of the time I can move normally but it almost seems random whether I get hit with this movement penalty or not.

Are you using any spells?

[just4]

Sometimes I use that spell that gives you +3 or whatever more health each turn. Also I use the overland spell that gives your party extra movement, which reminds me that sometimes when I use this spell it actually reduces my movement points instead of increasing it.

What does the spell description say?

Here is a link to a screenshot of the 3 spells I usually use.

I should probably add that I am using a No CD version of LOMSE.exe so maybe that is causing problems. Besides that I have had no problems except the fact when I scroll on the map towns, buildings, islands etc overlap with other terrain features they shouldn't (i.e. water). But all I have to do is either zoom in, or switch to another party and then back to the original for the map problem to fix itself.

-edit-
Did not even notice it says halves maximum movement in the spell description. Now I feel kinda dumb.

Do you know what the difference between current movement and maximum movement is?

[just4]

Right at the beginning of my turn now I have 5 current movement and 21 maximum movement.

Now that you mention it I don't know what many of the new stats that you added in the character info window do or mean (luck, agility, etc). Is there a glossary or readme somewhere on that?

[Boaster]

So your movement on the next turn gets reduced?

Before and after casting spells, check the Unit Info panels to detect the changes being made.

[just4]

For the last 4 turns my movement has always been 5 out of 21 at the beginning of the turn. After I cast both movement spells it goes up to 7 or so (usually), and very very rarely (as in only once or twice) it actually reduces my movement. Sometimes it works as it used to in the original where instead of 21 I end up with 30ish movement after movement spells are cast.

I take it I'm not supposed to have only 5 movement points at the beginning of my turn?

[Boaster]

So you've read the Spell tooltip description and you've checked your stats BEFORE & AFTER casting the spell.

Don't cast the spells and end your turn.

Read the spell tooltip, check stats before casting, check stats after casting.

Try this. If you make a mistake, try again.
