[BUG] settlersonlinetools.com simulator
Since I've been unable to find any topic about this simulator, I'm posting the bug Magolfa found about this simulator in the italian server.
The simulator I'm talking about is this one:
Which is, to me, the best simulator that can be used for studying any setup / block.
The bug I'm talking about is about the rounds indicated by the simulator.
More precisely, the bug was reported yesterday (26/05/2014) and was found on the Third leader of the adventure "The clever little tailor".
L3 has the following units:
80 Bears, 40 Foxes, 30 Giants
The bug appears when you simulate the following attack: 150B with MMA general:

As you can see, the simulator clearly says that the battle will last 1 round while the truth is that is should (and will) last 2 rounds.
Why?
Explanation:
Let's play logically: each unit, unless it has splash damage, can kill up to one unit, regardless the damage it deals.
Therefore, since the above camp has 80+40+30 units = 150 units, it can kill up to 150 units.
Since our setup has 150 bowmen + 1 MMA general, it is 151 units, therefore it is NOT correct to say that the battle will last 1 round, but it will always last 2, since the general will be alive at the end of the first round. Moreover, the number of foxes killed will be 30-32, not 15-16.
Details:
Round (1) ->
First Line Units ==> MMA general kills 15-16 foxes; Foxes kills 40 bowmen (up to 40, always 40 since minimal damage is 10 and bowmen's HP is 10).
-- dealing damage --
Player has 1 MMA and 110Bowmen left.
L3 has 80 bears, 25-26 foxes and 30 giants left.
Normal line units ==> Bowmen (110 bowmen) kills 23-27 bears, avg 25.89 bears ; bears kills 80 bowmen (up to 80, always 80 for the same reason as above).
-- dealing damage --
Player has 1 MMA and 30 bowmen left.
L3 has 53-57 bears, 25-26 foxes, 30 giants left
Last line units ==> Giants kills 30 bowmen (up to 30 , always 30 for the same reason as above).
-- dealing damage --
Player has 1 MMA left
L3 has 53-57 bears, 25-26 foxes, 30 giants left
<-- As you can see, MMA is still alive.
Round 2:
First line units -> MMA kills 15-16 foxed; foxes kills MMA
-- dealing damage --
Player has no units left
L3 has 53-57 bears, 10-12 foxes, 30 giants left
That proves that the battle will ALWAYS last 2 rounds, not 1 round as the simulator is saying.
