Release 184 - Report issues here

[Dunedragon]

I have 2 now. maybe need more?

[Xaldafax]

Adding spark cores will not fix the wear issue. How much fuel are you putting in and what wear is caused by it? this will help the developers know if it is wearing too fast.

[Dunedragon]

I have 2 spark cores at max condition 8,000 I put in 30 soft coal (compacted) in each one 60 total coal. The spark cores used 17 pieces now condition at -8,000 worn out. thy made 20,400 spark Is that normal? If I want them to use all 60 pieces I have to stay here and repair them or add more spark cores I would need 6 spark cores to use under 60 pieces of compacted soft coal or is the wear less if you use more spark cores or put all the coal in to one core and not split it in half. what is the max you can stack on spark cores .I can check the time it takes to use 17 pieces I did not check that. I check the time it was 18 min so worn out in 18 min for 20,400 spark

What are the models and years of the Mac’s your using?

It looks like some of them, get the Airs, are limited to 1.5GB, which is around the amount the game uses in full screen mode.

The wear on sparkcores is indeed way off. I burned about 10 compacted soft coal and that made it go from 0% wear to broken. This is way too fast!

[the-moebius]

man this happens alot now all over the worlds its the small triangles i think

[ctrl-64]

yep wear is way off. I can only mass craft 1 or 2 times before my crafting table got worn out, I had just repaired it too. What’s the point of having 20 items in the queue if it wears out before then? I think any machine should be able to at least craft a full entire queue of the toughest item to craft (that creates the most amount of wear) at least once.

[ctrl-64]

@michaelb

If you mean the level of detail of the terrain you can go in to the Graphics Options and change the new “Minimum Target FPS” to lower that the default 20, or off is you want the same behaviour as before.

Yes! that did it. Thank you!

[Jyanin]

You can’t split stacks when accessing the basket atm.
eg, Got a gem stack, the basket is only buying one kind of gem, and you can’t access the stack to get to the separate gem types, you have to split the stack up before accessing. I’d imagine this more of a pita if you have no space in your inventory.

[vdragon]

@HotelTime

Yeah, no problem. It’s on Berlyn, coords are : -1,630N, -1,376E.

@the-moebius

heres coord

you run from where i stand in between bench and table

when you try a few times you get stuck in between

happend to me alot as it is on my route to storageroom

Thanks for the coordinates. It’s another one of those chiselled block issues, which will be logged into the database.

@MoebiusXtreme

Inside Sanctum, if I look to the portal there is Lag. If I look something else there is no Lag

Could you post a couple of screenshots with the Latency Graph on screen please? One screenshot should show the portal when you have lag and other where you have no lag.

@Xaldafax

Removing the master beacon control tower automatically removes the plot it is in (assuming you removed all other plots or the warning does show about them required to be removed). I assume this is what you all want even though this is different game dynamic when we remove “non master beacon towers” from plots. It might lead to user confusion as to when plots are removed or not especially since usually an unplotter is required as the only way to remove plots beyond the fuel timer expiring.

Have a person with full permissions on the beacon tower can remove the master beacon control tower and that makes the plot disappear as well. If more plots exist you get the warning and cannot. But if it is only a 1 plot setup removing the tower removes the underlying plot. This is very dangerous because it could be done by accident and unplot another characters items or even be linked to griefing. Since players with permissions cannot add/remove plots to the beacon, removing the master control shouldn’t result in plot being removed.

I’ll tag @luke-turbulenz and @olliepurkiss so that they can read the feedback you’ve given here.

@Nevioni

It was an Iron axe and there were three more Iron axes in the stack.

What method did you use to assign the item to one of the hands? There are two ways:

1. You dragged the smart stack of items onto one of the radial display slots.
2. You right clicked on the smart stack and dragged a single item onto of the radial display slots.

If you used the first method, then the game should switch to the next item. If it was the second method, then game will not switch to the next item in the smart stack.

@OmniUno

No holes. They didn’t end up in lava either (which kills them and makes them black on the compass). And it happened multiple times during my hunting yesterday night. Each time I ran around for a bit trying to find the ghost mob before giving up and moving on.

EDIT: It does appear that the “ghost” mobs are mobs that have already been killed remaining on the compass. Confirmed by killing a few mobs. Once I loot them they change from black (dead) to gray again but remain on the compass.

Ah, you’ve encountered the same issue that @IAintNerdy previously reported here.

@MoebiusXtreme

I’m standing still. I see other player. I approached him. I see the message “press E …” and nothing happens.

In any place, with no other presence of players at all, I try to press “T” and “Return” to write something, don’t react.

Can you confirm that when you pressed E, there was a message appearing on the bottom left of the screen? If so, then this should be working as expected. The other player would have to agree to start a trade and / or friend request process, otherwise you will not see the GUI trading menu.

As for your other comment, if I understand this correctly, it sounds like you were saying that you pressed T and Return, in which case that would end Chat before you’ve had the chance to type anything on screen. If so, then you would need to press T to start the chat. Don’t press Return until you’ve entered a few words on screen.

@MoebiusXtreme

That’s right. After Building 6 Crafting Table the game does not do “COMPLETE”. I tried to unpinned this objective but don’t work too

This isn’t something I’ve seen so far. Could you do the following?

• Unpin and then pin the objective again.
• Go through the Crafting Table once more.

Once the Crafting Table has been crafted, share a game log so that we can check if something has gone wrong along the way.

@Xaldafax

Noticing that when meteors land in dense trees/underbrush area that sometimes the portals are very far away and it is kind of hard to work through the event because it seems you have to get spawns from certain portals in order it seems from what I have seen. I also had one event where I couldn’t find the mob that had dropped and almost never finished the event.

Here is a screen shot where it landed in water (I’m standing on the meteor) and the portals were up and over the hill. You see one portal here but the other was up behind the trees about 2x the distance from the first one.

The issue isn’t really the distance as it is the portal sequence order and that sometimes they don’t drop in the dense foliage as fast as on flat land.

@the-moebius

can confirm this seen it happen

Is the issue here that the creatures are not always landing quickly rather than the distance from the meteorite as you mentioned?

@brook-monroe

I placed 250 Oort Shards next to 750 Oort Shards already in a storage block. I walked away and stopped at a workbench, only to see that all 1000 Oort Shards were in my inventory, instead of side-by-side in the storage block. (Or in the block of storage blocks–I don’t know if they were in the same block or adjacent blocks.)

This happened with another commodity today as well–although I didn’t think much of it at the time as I assumed I was having a middle-aged moment.

When you discovered this, did you check if the Oort Shards were still in storage?

@Lonoty

Hi,

I found someting while playing, it is probably a bug with the smart stack name. The leaves smart stack is named : STACK_CATEGORY_PLANT_DROP SMART STACK, instead of leaf smart stack.

Also, where should I report these kind of bugs\problems? Support or Suggestion?

If anything looks like a definite bug, then yes it should be reported here, although it seems that @james has already moved it here for you. Thanks for the report nonetheless, a bug has been logged.

@houdhakker2

visual bug just sth i noticed

That’s the same issue that @ctrl-64 previously reported in this topic, although you did provide a screenshot.

@the-moebius

this is a old anoying bug

when i have refined sedi for example 50grey and 1 red

and the red is in the firtst item slot now i put it down build with the grey

then if i decide to break the red one it pops back up as first in hands

another example

when chisels are stacked and i use silver one the one in second stack slot

then twhen i switch click stuff in my hands it stays silver but when i go back and select it it pops back to the first stackslot item (example gold one)

this is superanoying for touchpad users

Did you report something like this previously? If so, could you link the post here?

If I understand what you’re saying here, can you confirm if what I’ve written below corresponds to your post?

First example:

• You have 50 grey-coloured Refined Sedimentary Rocks and an additional red-coloured block (although it isn’t clear if you had them in a smart stack or not).
• The red-coloured rock is the first item in the slot and you placed it down.
• Then you placed the grey-coloured blocks down (although you didn’t say whether you placed some or all of the grey blocks.
• When you break the red block, I’m not sure what you meant by “it pops back up as first in hands”.

Second example:

• Here you’ve stated that both the Gold Precise Bevel Chisel and Silver Precise Silver Chisel were in the same smart stack.
• I don’t know what you mean by “switch click stuff in my hands”. I guess you meant that you have the radial displays on screen and when you switch to the chisel smart stack, it should always display the first item, which would be the gold chisel instead of the silver chisel?

@OmniUno

So,

I’m trying to go to this beacon:

Warping there does not take me to the beacon, but instead places me above it. However it is NOT visible on my compass at all:

I eventually found it at another coordinate after digging around for about 20 minutes, still NOT visible on my compass.

Looks like underground beacons are impossible to warp to or find on the compass under certain conditions.

@Xaldafax

I think setting it to “master beacon control” will solve that issue based on the update logs. You might try that. Of course each plot area has to have it set for older towers. New ones set the first one as master beacon.

@OmniUno

Good idea! I’ve set it as master beacon control, but it still doesn’t show on my compass:

This did make me spawn about 40 blocks above it instead of at another random location - so progress!

EDIT: Spawning above it makes sense due to the 3 block rule and the blocks above the beacon. The bug here in my opinion is the fact that my beacon is not on the compass.

If the beaconed area here is not a big enough settlement, then it may not show on the compass.

@meikrenafor

Hello there.

I found an issue related to Skills -> Survival -> Item Durability Bonus II.

Description says: “Reduces the Decay Rate of iWeapons and Tools by 10%”.

I guess “Weapons” should be there instead of “iWeapons”.

Good spot! We’ll add it to the bug database.

@Dunedragon

Spark core condition going down very fast when generating spark I have to stay here and repair it full time to keep it going. Don’t know if its a bug.

@OmniUno

You can place more spark cores next to it to up its max condition.

@Dunedragon

I have 2 now. maybe need more?

@Xaldafax

Adding spark cores will not fix the wear issue. How much fuel are you putting in and what wear is caused by it? this will help the developers know if it is wearing too fast.

The spark cores used 17 pieces now condition at -8,000 worn out. thy made 20,400 spark Is that normal? If I want them to use all 60 pieces I have to stay here and repair them or add more spark cores I would need 6 spark cores to use under 60 pieces of compacted soft coal or is the wear less if you use more spark cores or put all the coal in to one core and not split it in half. what is the max you can stack on spark cores .I can check the time it takes to use 17 pieces I did not check that. I check the time it was 18 min so worn out in 18 min for 20,400 spark

@HiggsFoton

I think any machine should be able to at least craft a full entire queue of the toughest item to craft (that creates the most amount of wear) at least once.

As you know, the machine wear is now displayed as a whole number instead of a percentage. Seeing as there have been a number of posts saying that the machines wear down too quickly, then we will have to look at adjusting the values.

@the-moebius

crashed two times trying to buy from shopstand with sign on it reported crashlog

In that case we should have the crash information. Can you also expand on your post to describe in more detail what you were doing at the time?

@Jyanin

Are you accessing someone else’s Request Basket and you want to split your own stack of items?

[Nevioni]

To be honest i really can’t remember now, but ill try recreating the issue in game.

[willcrutchley]

@vdragon

Are you accessing someone else’s Request Basket and you want to split your own stack of items?

Yes, i can confirm that that is when it happens. It also happens in the trade window.

[MoebiusXtreme]

When you discovered this, did you check if the Oort Shards were still in storage?

Not in so many words–I just went back to storage and put them both back where I wanted them to be in the first place. The storage slots were empty, so it couldn’t be used as a duplication exploit.

My mistake, sorry, I notice that “Show Chat Log” was OFF… thats why I couldn’t write messages.
But the question that arises: will this option activate and deactivate the “T” key? I have not tried it yet.

C’ant unpin… what I am doing wrong?

[boundmore]

About that skill loss:

@vdragon

We’ve made some hotfixes which should fix this issue. Can you check if this is still an issue?

I certainly hope I have it back, but I can’t tell as I dont know what was my skill points total before reset (I know I had 9 spare points I hadnt use, but what was the total already spent on kills?)

[Xaldafax]

@vdragon

Is the issue here that the creatures are not always landing quickly rather than the distance from the meteorite as you mentioned?

Issue seems to be two things:

1. Creatures spawn but then as you run towards them because it is far away they disappear.
2. Sometimes you run back and forth between the portals and creatures don’t seem to drop. Or if they do it is almost impossible to see or find them.

I’ve only seen this on starter worlds.
