Did a lap of xvarts with some people, and right towards the end, and for no discernable reason, all active summons just despawned, which also included my Thaumaturge cohort. I used Conjure Spiders to make some extra guys to fight off the leftover enemies the group was dealing with, but they all despawned about 2-3 rounds after casting.
After this, we went to rest, rebuffed and continued, and then a handful of kills later we got the 'enemies are retreating' message. We never saw the champion pack spawn (or any caution messages indicating they were arriving), and to my knowledge, nobody else was in the area either.
Considering the timing of the despawns, I wonder if the summon despawns was caused by the script attempting to spawn in the champion pack? That is just a guess, though.

Re: Summons despawning, champion pack not occuring
Also happened in gnoll cave with my Planar Cohort (Thaumaturge class) and second summon.
I made a seperate post about that, and the only thing unusual about it was that I was doing one of those "active search" quests and the unsummoning seemed to coincide with entering search mode.
If it happened while doing laps around the Xvart village, then maybe it isn't the active search quest after all?

Re: Summons despawning, champion pack not occuring
I don't think it is related, otherwise the summon despawning should have happened at the same time of you getting the message that 'enemies are retreating'. I did add an extra check into the script to ensure that it doesn't touch summons.
And there is no champion pack coming when the enemies decide to retreat.

Just to bump this one again, in case it hasn't been found and fixed already.
Seems that whenever someone rests in the same zone as you, all your summons get unsummoned on the spot. Doesn't matter if they are partied up with you or not.
So, if you didn't already spot and fix it, hopefully that helps.

Re: Summons despawning
Rania rested just now, in party, and it dismissed my summon :S
"They're just furry and misunderstood."
"Is that why you are killing them?"
"Yes. They will atone in death."
"Ah. That will help them understand."

Re: Summons despawning
Yikes, sorry, this is mine! Thanks for explaining precisely what was happening. A few surviving neurons flashed and I recognized my mistake from your descriptions.
Fixed by next update!
