How to fix this glitch

rome-2-total-war

The glitch is as following:

  • I was fighting against a minor settlement and when I was about to win, a pop-up appeared, asking me if I wanted to Continue the battle (to run down the remaining few troops) or to just end the fight.

  • I wanted to finish them off. So I clicked continue. However, even after I have wiped them out, the game did not end. I thought that I had missed out an enemy soldier or two but after 20 minutes of scouting the map, I found nothing.

  • Therefore, I had to wait the full 60 minutes of the battle's time limit and after that, the game told me that I had lost the battle as I failed to win the battle within the given time.

Thus, I would like to know a few things:

How can I prevent this from happening again? Can I end the battle after I clicked continue on the pop-up and still win the battle? What exactly caused this glitch?

This might be a bug or not but you could stop at any time you wanted. When you clicked continue you can kill any remaining soldiers but it should end aytomatically when no enemy soldiers remain. The way to exit this when you want is just clicking escape and then click end battle(only if you had clicked continue). I have done this in my playthrough and it took it as a win.
