Release 186 - Report issues here

@obsidious1

No sound in game

Can you be more specific about where you’re experiencing loss of sound?

@ctrl-64

Its not just shop stands, it will do the same thing when checking details on any tool in any inventory (storage, machines and my own inventory.)

Thanks for the additional information, I’ve updated the bug report.

@Attica

Had a Buying Basket in little build beside active portal on Andoweem. Oort stone wanted for a price I can’t remember. Looked fine. Checked basket for any sales - item wanted was a copper axe! Puzzled I removed the axe…Buying basket is now empty, new axe is in my inventory and original Oort stone went pooof.

By Buying Basket, did you mean the Request Basket? If so, this sounds like the current known issue where items wanted will be completely different to what was previously placed on the Request Basket as the item you wish to buy.

@brook-monroe

It doesn’t surprise me that Impulse Resistance doesn’t improve Slingbow Mastery, but at the same time…

You definitely won’t be able to improve Slingbow Mastery this way . Aside from that, I’ll add this to the bug database.

@Braindrop

Crash while mining.

Unhandled exception at 0x0000000023434B3A in boundless.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF. occurred.

Dump submitted.

@brook-monroe

Incoming crash dump. Just putting igneous brick in as flooring. The game struggled with one voxel (it emptied and remained that way for about 10 seconds before the new block showed up, and the second placement next to it crashed the game. I had dropped some extraneous seeds about 12 blocks away before placing these blocks, and the seeds were back in my inventory when I logged back in after the crash.

@Samski

So i cant seem to start the game now, was in the hunt a few hours ago and the game crashed, since then i have been unable to get into the game properly. The game will load to sanctum and crash after a while (quicker if i do something, but even if i don’t move it will crash).

Have tried restating machine and steam etc. Didn’t notice anything new (updates etc) before first crash, but windows updated upon restart. Crash dumps sent through windows.

@Gorillastomp

Had same problem as you. I fixed it by completely deleting my username folder from “Steam\steamapps\common\Boundless\user_settings”.

@ComplexRogue7

Was on the hunt, connection unstable for the majority of it. Game crashed several times. Have sub’d a crash dump. Lost about 4 warp blocks - no biggy lol, also died several times for no visible reason.

Thanks to those of you who submitted crash dumps, we’ll add bug reports for those.

@Attica

I was making torches in a workbench, all went well until workbench ‘wore out’ - got stuck in the making screen, Esc doesn’t work, can’t close down game, music and animations ran just fine. Had to alt-tab to manually close down game.

@Leroy83

I had the same problem, but in the trade screen. Also had to force close.

@Shadora

Change chat settings, “continues chat” to off

@Attica and @Leroy83, did the suggestion made by @Shadora work for you both?

@Swede

Some of the new stone props are colored strangely when I break the block underneath. It has happened every time I tested. After I break the block, the prop hangs in the air for a moment with these colors before they break themselves. This happened on Andoweem, I havent tested if the same happens on other moons/planets.

Thanks for the screenshots, a bug has been logged. Incidentally, do you have the coordinates for this particular location (or any other where the issue arises)?

@knightsb

I promised to let you know the coordinates the next time I got stuck at a flower. So here it is.

1393N -1584E on Berlyn

Was it any of these flowers:

Or another flower nearby? I haven’t experience any problems so far.

@Jeffrotheswell

ever since the last update i have been experiencing crippling rubber banding

@Jeffrotheswell

I was even defeated by a block of metamorphic rock when i broke it walked into the space it had been in and it reappeared

FYI @james

@Braindrop

I’ve also had connection stability problems for the first time ever with 186. I’m on a 300 gig FIOS line. I generally have to completely exist the game and reconnect to fix.

@ComplexRogue7

Also just had to turn off the game because of this and it’s becoming pretty presistent.

What is your Chunk Download Rate and Chunk Cache Size set to? Trying adjusting as explained here:

Engine: Fixing lag with "Chunk Download Rate"

The Chunk Download Rate option limits the number of chunks the game will attempt to download from the server. If the client attempts to download more chunks than your connection bandwidth can support then the game may start to lag. This will often happen when you’re in areas that contain many portals. The Chunk Cache Size (in MB) option limits the size of the chunks cached locally. The more chunks the client can cache the less chunks it will need to re-download from the server when entering wor…

If lowering them does not make much difference, then open the Latency Graph like @Jeffrotheswell has done and post the results.
