[Heroes 2 Bugs][Low Priority] Impossible to conquer a castle

Not high on the priority list, but still a bug.

[Low Priority] --> Only to look at when all others high priority bugs are already corrected, and when you have done some soul-crushing work to get some reinvigorating.

English version 1.3
Map: Shangri-.mp2
Crag Hack cannot capture the castle Pinehurst.
Mouse cursor does not turn into a sword.



English Gold version 2.1
Map: AMaze.mp2
Ranloo cannot capture the castle Woodhaven.

Ranloo on the castle entrance square, the flags are still red.



Right click on the castle entrance square, "Grass (no digging)" is displayed.

I remember having a lot of these bugs in my Russian localisation of the game (I suppose, it was unofficial). The castles were visitable, but a player could not capture the desired castle, because the loaded castle window was from another one. This could also be tracked by right-clicking at the upper square of the castle sprite - the information belonged to the "substitute" castle instead.

For the scenario "A Maze" (AMaze.mp2), the problem arises from the fact that the user has positioned objects (trees) before positioning a town in the same location in the scenario editor. Positioning a town over already positioned trees does not remove the trees. If the trees are removed, the town becomes accessible during the game.

However, for the "Shangri-La" scenario (Shangri-.mp2), this is not the case, everything seems normal in the editor.

Added to bug tracker.

Yes I have it too in freeheroes2. I Didnt know its original. Probably is not in exe file because freeheroes2 dont use original exe. Maybe some maps has this bug?!
Another bug is crash when you are inside city and click to build something.

I have not tried with Free Heroes 2, but yes it certainly comes from the map editor. Some of these bugs often appear with combinations of objects on the map, such as the invisible mercury mine.
