Release 188 - Report issues here

[vdragon]

I’ll get around to everyone’s issues eventually, there’s quite a lot to go through.

@Brightstar

Where do I find the game logs?

The only time I got it to error like this was after adding someone to my steam friends list, then trying to port to him. (This is before either of us restarted steam, but after we had both reloaded Boundless.)

@ChimeraGaming

Future ref… how to do this??

You’ll find in the FAQ I’ve quoted below:

Q: How do I share a Boundless game log?

If you would like to report a problem when you are playing Boundless please include the following: Finding the Boundless game log: The game generates logs in following locations: On Mac OS X: ~/Library/Logs/Boundless/log.txt On Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Turbulenz\Boundless\log.txt On most versions of Windows %LOCALAPPDATA% is a hidden directory. To access the file you can type the path to the file directly into Windows Explorer. Please Note - The most recent log will be log.txt, older log…

The Description & burn time for “Improved Beacon Fuel” do not align…

It fuels for 12 weeks / 84 days

But

the Description states 60 days / 8.5 weeks

[Rumplypigskin]

I dunno if anyone has mentioned this but I tried healing bombs and they can be a little annoying at times. When you heal someone they go flying, same goes to the caster. They have so much knockback it doesn’t seem right.

@Raziels01

I already got 3 Cases of “Loosing Plots”

The Mayan Pyramid in Aquatopia lost 4 Plots on its back and is gone Wild. (Edit: I spoke to, moebius the Pyramid was on Purpose, sorry)

What are the coordinates for all of these aforementioned areas?

@Brynjar

The red outline is for the plots owned by my beacon “K’Vek Lake Community”
None of the plots are split into separate settlements. Rather, “K’Vek Lake Community” is not considered part of the settlement at all; nor does it count as its own settlement.

I’ve let @james know about your replies.

@Brynjar

The message regarding the 10K Prestige is still there, yes.

We have a fix for this, so let us know if this is working okay when the game is updated with the hotfixes.

@Samski

When smelting metals int he furnace, they sometimes freeze after making only a few bars and need to be broken before starting again. There is always a hidden bar inside when breaking when this occurs.

Were you changing characters when this occurred? There is an issue where the Furnace stops crafting after changing characters.

@the-moebius

old issue

cuase off new update i put all therka beacons together on one beacon

but this beacon owned by moebs has stopped producing good footfall

in comparation with my smaller alts yabobeacon 10plots on plaza

i think it bugged its over 200plots and it makes 10times less then the 10plot plot

wo are in same high footfall spot

im playing longtime and have big friendlist to the max and in this time many players have gotten rights to build there and where putt off again

i think they dont get resetted to make footfall again after i unright them this is kinda rong as i put hard work into maintaining my plots and portals ingame for longtime

i think this is a bug a bit unique to me but in futur a pain for very involved players off the game

!!!would removing all my friends reset my beacon!!!

fun fact for those who read this i never owned a milion in cash lol

i dont see the point off it

What are the coordinates of these locations where you have different beacons per character?

@Brightstar

This may just be because of the last update resetting some of these feats, but I’m getting weird numbers vs completion bars on some of my feats for crafting.

You’ve hit the same issue that @ChimeraGaming reported earlier in this topic.

@Jyanin

This might be a 188 thing since shift clicking into stacks over to storage/inventories is now a thing and it didn’t seem to happen before.

For reasons mostly I can’t figure out, things keep removing themselves from my hotbars. I feel like it’s happening when I shift-move things from my inventory to a secondary inventory (machines/storage).

I’m not touching the stacks of the thing that dissapears. For example I’ve a torch stack with a Diamond, cloth and standard torch in. I generally don’t do anything with that stack except have a torch in each hand, but for some reason both removed themselves from my hotbars(circles).

It’s kind of hard to picture this. Can you show a screenshot using the example inventory items you’ve given so that I have a better idea of what’s going on?

@Lawrey

Hmm not really an issue but I find this misleading.

“Common Decorative Recipes” is under “Equipment Crafting” which for me, doesn’t make sense. We don’t equip glass or bricks, etc. I believe it’s best suited at “Item Crafting” so then at least the term is more generic.

Took me more time than necessary to find this skill.

It’s an understandable explanation, so I’ve passed your feedback to the designers.

@Hashmalash

Hi,

since 15/03/2018 i ahve this screen:

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.net/ugc/932682037426890349/219FD6CE2D5BAEE63A92CE36049D2A019658A0DF/

and all of its claims ands prestige is not counted in Hash Village beacon list and prestige. tried everything unclaimed all plots destroyed all beacons then reclaimed all no results

It’s the ‘Load Failed’ issue that a few people have already reported in this forum topic. We should have an upcoming fix for this.

@Firehazurd

Looks like I’m also not getting some feats, specifically basic crafting feats, are stuck. I’ve clearly fulfilled the requirements, but it’s still stuck as incomplete.

I’ll add a bug to the database. Did you also not receive any XP / Coin either?

@Swede

I have tested several times now since my last post. And sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt.

Behaviour can change from different times I am there, but when I use the spanner several times during the same test the behaviour is consistent.

But it seems like the floating text always show on the machines without coils.

With my machines with coils it works sometimes. So could be related to something else.

Anyway, here is my setup.

Front view; Left to right, Extractor, Mixer, Refinery (24 advanced power coils), Compactor (24 power coils), Workbench (24 power coils).

Thanks for the screenshot, I’ll add this to the bug database. Can you also provide coordinates of the location so that I can check out the layout in detail?

@BrianPWilson

My beacon is not receiving footfall profit. I had mentioned that my beacon location was not recording prestige correctly in an earlier post on this thread. Now i’ve noticed that I am not receiving any footfall traffic coins. I have seen 5 different people in my establishment in the past hour and not a single one awarded me any footfall and they are not on my beacon as permissible individuals:

We have an upcoming fix for the prestige issue. After the fix goes live, check this again and if it’s not working, then let us know so that we can take a look at it.

@Auben

I assume this is a hunter trophy in this request basket.

It seems it’s icon is bugged a lil bit.

Thanks for the report and screenshot, I’ve added it to the bug database.

@SaltShaker

I am having a problem where our little town wont show up right… I keep getting "load failed as an error on my beacon.

It’s been reported in this forum topic already, but we have a fix for this.

@slyduda

We had our first “too many meshes in this chunk to place block failure” yesterday. We chose to build up rather than out so that we would not get in the way of other settlements. We don’t notice any degradation of performance. Is there any way that this threshold can be increased? We have chosen to be extremely efficient with our engine placement and we’re afraid that the game does not want us to be.

Could you submit a screenshot and coordinates of the location so that we can see what the layout looks like? Currently, the limit is 512 in a chunk.

@Jiivita

Good spot. I’ll add it to the bug database.

[Raziels01]

Okay, the Vulpto case is at: -1.100N -1.980E Alt: 65, we replotted it but this Plot was randomely gone and someone stole our portals. (The Part with the Beacon in it was still up and running, My Brother owns this Plot)

And the Case where i just lost one of my max Plots was while plotting and unplotting the street at Therka: 1.137N -1.188E Alt: 65… I unplotted there something and didn’t got the Plot back

[Samski]

Could be i was changing chars, will let you know if it happens when i keep the same char.

[Firehazurd]

Hard to say. With my main character, I doubt I’ve completed any of those feats since the update, because I largely don’t craft with him. My alt, Craftr, however, is newer and could’ve conceivably completed these feats post update and I just didn’t notice right away. I messed up all my reskills (confusion around the engine skill descriptions not changing right away), and didn’t really notice until after a ton of crafting and trying to find ways to get experience.

My assumption would be that I haven’t completed any of them since the update, but I’m just not sure.

[Swede]

Here are the coordinates to my machines / coils.
-2,054N 1,370E (Altitude: 110)

[TeressaWSEC]

Couldn’t see this listed, but surely others have seen it - It isn’t possible to buy Iron/Silver tools at the moment from shops. You can interact with the pedestals and see the available items but you can’t interact with the tools in any way to buy them. Gem items aren’t affected at all, and I think Gold was okay as well. Were sales of these put on hold pending the Fibrous Leaf update or something?

[willcrutchley]

Are you sure they weren’t just in a smartstack? there are issues with buying smartstacks or items from smartstacks, but not single items @TeressaWSEC

[TeressaWSEC]

Ah ha! That was probably the problem, thanks

Thanks for the coordinates, I’ll pass these over to @Tobelawe to investigate further.

@Rumplypigskin

I dunno if anyone has mentioned this but I tried healing bombs and they can be a little annoying at times. When you heal someone they go flying, same goes to the caster. They have so much knockback it doesn’t seem right.

Was it more than one category of healing bombs that you have used?

@Swede

Here are the coordinates to my machines / coils.

-2,054N 1,370E (Altitude: 110)

Thanks, I’ll check it out and will try and create a layout similar to yours to see if I get the same issue.

[Tobelawe]

Hi Raziels01,

I have looked into two of your case so far and can give you this information.

Firstly I will explain the missing plot case. When you lost the plot you were level 44. A player at level 44 with our current plots balance should have exactly 260 total plots. Looking at the analytics data (data we gather tracking players) I can see that you indeed had 260 total plots all through out level 44. If ever we displayed to you that you had 261 pots, that is a bug. I don’t think you have lost it, it’s more likely a display error.

The issue where a plot disappeared. I’ve looked at the build and would like to ask a few questions:

1. Have you yourself placed portal block in your portal hub?
2. When did you realise the portal was missing?
3. Was the portal you are talking about the one under the red gleam?

[Elsiekelsie]

Ive found a bug to do with spark generators (sorry i cant remember the correct name and not in game). I have a set of 5, so 5 slots for coal. When I drop compacted hard coal into the first slot it just disappears immediately, no matter how many pieces I put in and with no spark generated. The other 4 slots work fine.

Thanks

[Raziels01]

Hi Tobelawe,

Allright the 260 Plot Thing Makes Sense to me, it was on Patch day and i got like 144k eP logging in, that was maybe a little too much :P.

Concerning the lost Plot on Vulpto:

1. HarryHotpans claimed the Plot, Raziels01 placed the Conduits (for all 3 Portals)
2. I can’t really remember, but the first post adressing the Problem was posted like 10 Minutes after finding the Problem (post 171)

It was the one to the right, leading to Nashtaril. The other 2 were active in the unplotted area O_o (But most of the room was gone)

No, I’ve only used sapphire healing bombs.

I can’t reproduce this. What’s your Spark Core layout like? Further, what does the coal layout look like in your inventory?

@Rumplypigskin

No, I’ve only used sapphire healing bombs.

I looked into this and can see that only these bombs are affected, as there are no problems with the Copper equivalent, so I’ll add this to the bug database.

[philelliott]

Have the resource drop rates gone back to pre-188 levels again? Just testing some mining and only getting 1 item per tier 3 block (Diamond, Hard Coal), 2 items from tier 2 blocks (Titanium), consistently. Before today, 188 drop rates had gone up a decent amount, which made mining more attractive.

Edit: Added block types. Note this was Andooweem (tier 2 world).

[Elsiekelsie]

Here you go - my layout + how I’m splitting into equal stacks and then dragging in.

[Brightstar]

@philelliott I had the same issue. Turns out the drop rates on T2 worlds are just that much lower than T3. It’s intentional.
