Not switch characters. I think i may have discovered part of the bug. I’ll try and explain as best i can.

I decided to actually veggie a build instead of just living in my square box in a hill. I removed all blocks to the boundaries of my plots. This removed the back wall and floor that the machines and forges where previously connected to. All machines are in the same plot so no chunk issues. The “floor” is now about 3 blocks below the machines and the wall is 1 block away. Ceiling is 2 blocks away.

What i noticed last night was that at the end of each crafting cycle it would do the 255 hours thing while looking at the machine from the 3 blocks below. If i jumped, grappled, or did anything else to get on the same horizontal plane as the crafting device it would complete normally.

If i returned to the lower floor each creating cycle would glitch until i jumped to the same plane as the bottom of the machine. Repeated this many times to confirm.

I’m still in mid remodel so haven’t broken the machines down to move into their new rooms yet.

@Prome3us

Awesome, this correlates with the view from long distance thing i get, and takes chunk boundaries out of the equation!

@DonBab

It definitely seems that way. Only discovered it by accident as o had too grapple past the forges to get to the workbenchs up higher

@Prome3us

Screenshotted to confirm, the 255h crafting “issue” seems to occur at a distance greater than 3 straight blocks. I put up 4 furnaces in square and reproducibly get the 255h crafting time when viewed from a greater distance. Some screenshots showing that at 3 blocks (exactly 3.5 seeing as I’m in the centre of my current block) the closest furnace displays correct time and further furnaces continue on 255h.

@james I have no coding experience but it seems that the crafting info only gets translated from server to client side when you get closer than 3 (3.5). The crafting is however continuing in the further furnaces and as soon aas i step closer their progress matches the closest “working” furnace.

@DonBab

Great test. Hope that gives the bug squashers a place to start looking.

@schasm

I seem to recall some patch notes saying machines got fixes for performance or something like that - maybe the shorter distance to view crafting time reduces lag but the distance for querying the tooltip was left at the old setting.

@Gorillastomp

Nah this pretty buggy right now, if you start to craft something in the furnace and it as right away the crafting time bug it won’t smelt at all. You have to make it works from the start so you can see the process of the crafting. To do so you have to leave game and comeback in front of the furnace to either start it properly or to see your crafted stuff. Its pretty annoying bug.

We should have a fix for the large crafting time soon.

@Adrageron

Here is coords. Not sure if aerial view will help, most of the base is underground/inside the mountain.

@Xaldafax

I put Reapall’s stuff in White Line. That is basically his area. From what I can tell based on people in the settlement he seems to now be PART of Eden (Village) but I cannot confirm.

Obviously I don’t know what changed in your code to all of a sudden switch from him having the issue to now me having it. Please note it is a bit hard to show the exact plot distribution between all the users that are in the town. Most plots in the Black area (south) are mine but there are others from Twisted, BatPanda, Kal-El, etc. I don’t know if they are part of our settlement or on their own any longer because I don’t see them in the list of people for prestige on the village.

Thanks for the extra. I’ll let @james or @lucadeltodecso respond to this, as they can provide a better explanation of what’s going on.

@OmniUno

This meteorite just now:

Jumped in, got my oort shards and when I jumped out I got teleported to the floating mountain above it. I did it a few times - once the surface below me is edged and I move a bit I’ll get stuck into one of the top blocks and get teleported to the floating mountain.

Oh, you did it from a meteorite. That’s not quite the situation I would have expected. I haven’t been able to reproduce this, but going to the location you’ve specified showed that the meteorite was below floating island, so I can see how the issue might have happened. I’ll add this to the database anyway.

@schasm

No but I will note it next time. I suspect it’s anything where you can hit the edge of a block, but perhaps only wild ones where they have that wonky side.

Sounds like it could be a possibility. Let us know when you find specific examples.

@schasm

It’s almost everything - the whole “Used in” bit from the foot of the description is/was gone. It used to be a hyphen bullet list at the foot of each resource text. I’ll check again given there’s been a couple of patches.

@schasm

It’s almost everything

For example:

Raw Meat would’ve listed:

– Cooked Meat

– Meaty Broth

and so on.

Okay, that explains it clearly. I’ll check with the relevant dev to see what’s going on.

@slyduda

Yup, sorry for being so vague. I had been on the receiving end of a trade. The seller put a stack of 500 in the first slot and another identical stack of the same item of 500 in the second slot. In total this was 1000 items. At the end of the trade I only received 901 items. I am not sure how the logic of the sorting during the trade to inventory was written, but it seems like when it tried to push 400 into the first stack and the remaining stack was set to 1 instead of 100. I can test this to try to replicate it later.

Please do, and let us know how often it occurs.

@the-moebius

any fix on the way for the broken stairs its really anoying

running up cornered stairs blocks ya from going up

this never happend before

and now its permanent thing?

cant hardly use my piramid stairs to jump out my homebase

made a visual aide

We should have a fix for this soon.

@yoRyanGO

game crashes as soon as i join the server.(reinstalled it but still crashes)

Is it still crashing every time? If so, have you submitted a crash dump upon trying to load the game again? Submitted crash dumps will also contain the pathname C:\Users\your PC username\AppData\Local\Turbulenz\boundless\static-cache, so if your forum / game username is the same as your PC username, then we can match that to the specific crash dumps.

@ThatGreyPoupon

Yes coil was placed next to wall, I had the idea of maybe it going on the other side of the wall but I did not fined it when I broke the wall to check.

Can you provide a screenshot of what your setup looks like? I can try and recreate a similar setup to see if I can get the same issue.
