Summary: Gyro-copter freezes

 

 

Version: B27

Platform: PC

OS/Version: Windows

Game mode: mp host

 

Did you wipe old saves? No

Did you start a new game? No

Did you validate your files? No

EAC on or off Off

 

Status: NEW

 

Bug Description: Gyrocopter freezes after client exits vehicle

 

Reproduce steps: Let player that joined my game fly around in the gyrocopter. Whenever they exit the gyrocopter it freezes in place. When they accidentally exited the copter 40 blocks off the ground it just stuck there. You can still pick it up or hop in to fly - you just have to nerd pole to get to it. Copter works exactly as it should if I am plying it (both host and 'owner' of the vehicle). This was not the case with the 4x4 - either player could drive it without said side effect.

 

Actual result: Gyro-copter freezes when client exits.

 

Expected result: Gyrocopter to obey physics no matter who flys it.

Summary: Catwalk at trader leads to player "invisible" wall when trying to exit

 

 

Version: a17.2 b27

Game mode: MP Client - Dedi - RWG

 

Did you wipe old saves? Yes

Did you start a new game? Yes

Are you using any mods? CPM (for server admin moderation only)

EAC on or off? On

Status: New

 

Bug Description: When exiting the trader, the catwalk and low overhang of the trader door causes an "invisible" wall effect

 

Reproduce steps:

1) Find a trader

2) Enter the actual trader trailer

3) Look carefully at where the block painted like a duct and the catwalk meet

4) Exit the trader

5) Continuously having to press "W" key to exit trader due to an "invisible" wall effect

 

Actual result: Due to the way of the placement of the catwalk and block, an "invisible" wall effect can happen when attempting to exit the trailer in which the trader is in.

Expected result: No "invisible" wall effect.

Small non-game breaking bug - I keep getting an encumbered message when I am not encumbered. The encumbered symbol comes up too. No idea how to replicate.

That happens occasionally, but I found (for me) it disappears after a reconnect.

Be sure not to have a freezing buff that affects encumbering.

Unsure if this still exists, last I noticed was in 17. Can't remember what version specifically..

 

No mods.

PC

RWG

 

 

 

But if you rotate a door upside down (To get double doors), it's out one block, and sinks through the ground.

 

Also if you have a chainsaw 6 with all mod slots filled, you don't get the bonus yield from trees when destroying them.

Yes, many of us in our group of 9 also noted this. Didn't know how to proceed with BR. Can't find any 'common denominator' at all, except that its intermittent.

Did you wipe old saves? Yes

Did you start a new game? Yes

Did you validate your files? Yes

Status: NEW

 

Bug Description:

When you create a Wooden Window it requires "4 Wood Units".

But, when you place it, you hit the window and the glass breaks. (Go to the "Destroyed Window" block), so you get glass.

Hey all, sorry if this has been reported. I tried looking but couldn't see anything referring to it.

 

Summary: When smelting in a forge, you can put something with a low melting point and once the timer starts, swap it for something with a high melting point for the low melting point time.

 

Version: 17.2(b27)

Platform: PC

OS/Version: Windows 10 Pro

Game mode MP Client (Was by myself when discovered)

 

Did you wipe old saves? Yes

Did you start a new game? Yes

Did you validate your files? No

Are you using any mods? Yes

 

Status: NEW?

 

Bug Description: When smelting in the forge. I discovered that if you put raw iron ore in (melt time of 00:10) and wait until it ticks down to 9 seconds. Quickly take something with a high melting point (I used a level 1 Wrench which has a melt time of 04:00) and place it in the slot which held the low melting point item (in this case, the slot which previously held the iron), you will now smelt whatever you want for only 00:10.

 

Reproduce steps:

 

1) Turn on a forge and place raw iron ore in a smelting slot

2) Once the 00:10 timer starts, place anything else in the slot which can be smelted (Do not remove the item, place the new item on top of the old item)

3) After 00:10, whatever the item was or however long it should take, the item will be smelted in 00:10

This is, AFAIK, an old and known bug. Forge and mixer carfting/smelting times are basically broken. The bug/feature you mentioned is rather handy when, for example, I want to smelt a radiator in just a few seconds. Put something in that only takes a few seconds, and before the time is up stick in the radiator (or whatever). Two seconds later it's done.

 

I've also noticed that when I put stuff in the forge or a mixer, it sometimes runs at what seems to be 10x speed. If I close the interface to the forge/mixer, and open it up again, the smelting/crafting/mixing speed is greatly reduced. Sometimes I'll start a huge forge job and just leave the interface open because it smelts/crafts ten times faster. (did any of that make sense?). I go get a sandwich or something, and when I return my 45 minute crafting job is done in five minutes.

Summary: Chunks stop loading when riding bicycle (perhaps other vehicles) into them

Version:

Platform: PC

OS/Version: Windows

Game mode: MP Dedicated RWG mp host/mp client/sp /client on dedi (RWG or NAV)

 

Did you wipe old saves? Yes

Did you start a new game? Yes

Did you validate your files? Yes

Are you using any mods? No

EAC is on

 

Status: NEW

 

Bug Description: While riding bicycle, sometimes the area head will stop loading stuff, such as grass, trees, other vegetation, rocks, boulders, etc. and will not let me move forward any further, if not bouncing me backwards. Getting off the bike causes the area ahead to begin loading. Not sure if other vehicles do this.

 

Reproduce steps: Get on a bicycle, ride until stuff stops loading on terrain and you can't go forward any further. Get off bike to get it to load and allow you to proceed.

 

 

 

Actual result: Stuff stops loading in while riding bicycle

 

Expected result: Stuff should load in without having to get off bicycle

[Mornus]

We are getting this on the majority of servers. Some are running existing worlds and some created new worlds. After update they initially loaded/created worlds and the loaded and could be joined. Then they would get this error after a crsah

https://gyazo.com/8f9366574bd0c3b428aee0302f65e8c6

 

The error code 112 means that there is no more space left on the device.

Check if there is enough space on the server hard disk.

Summary: Exact Damage Not Triggering Resource 'Explosion'

Version: 17.2 b27

Platform: PC

OS/Version: Windows

Game mode, mp host/mp client/sp /client on dedi: Single Player, RWG

 

Did you wipe old saves? No, I have some old saves but I did wipe the save I used for testing this in between tests.

Did you start a new game? Yes

Did you validate your files? Unsure

Are you using any mods? No

EAC on or off ? Unsure

 

Status: NEW

 

Bug Description: I discovered that when harvesting resources, if the tool being used reduces the hit points of the block to exactly zero, the 'bonus' resources obtained via destroying the block are not credited.

 

Reproduce steps: Use any combination of Strength points and Miner 69'r levels to make block damage into a multiple of block health, then harvest block. Examples include:

~Iron Pickaxe on stone with +20% damage or +140% damage (resulting in block damage of 50 or 100, respectively)

~Iron Fireaxe on wood with +0%, +50%, +100%, +150% (damage will be 60/90/120/150, and tree health is always a multiple of 300)

 

Actual result: (With Mother Lode level 5) Using an iron pickaxe with Strength 8 and Miner 69'r level 5 results in block damage of 98 and harvesting a stone block (HP: 500) yields 109 small stones and 4 raw iron after 6 swings. Upgrading Strength to 9 increases block damage to exactly 100 (technically 100.8 rounded, but 100 as the game tracks). Harvesting a block of stone now yields 55 small stones and 2 raw iron in 5 swings, with no additional resources being given upon block destruction. Increasing Strength to 10 results in block damage of 105 and a harvest yield of 101 small stones and 4 raw iron. As a separate, but related, issue: this creates a game state wherein leveling up actually reduces your resource yield and mining experience.

 

Expected result: The amount of resources gained from harvesting a block should be independent of the rate the block is harvested. Whether it takes 12 swings or 5 to destroy, a stone block should always yield the same amount of resources.

QA Tester-unholyjoe The lighting from the headlights of vehicles is disgusting. It’s hard to see at night. Add this to Known Issues, let the developer fix it.

 

***************************************

 

(edit added comment by QA Tester-unholyjoe)

 

on my vanilla game in our latest test builds i am seeing it rather dark (but it is still do-able), maybe there will be mods later to compensate (like high beams low beams type or clear glass mod for light).

 

i submitted a report for dev's investigation.

 

thanks

Have a play of A14 / A15, that light was nice, but it was nerfed. Same with head lamps.

[GambitWild]

Not sure if this is known as well.

 

 

When playing solo, if you deal with your horde on the blood moon (no more spawn after the initial rush) then leave the game. Enter your game again the blood moon horde appears to reset and acts as if you didn't just do your horde. Easy XP and loot farming if intended.

 

 

 

Another is how glass works with a light source behind it.

 

 

Here is an image of what the scene looks like at night...

 

 

 

 

Here is the same viewpoint from inside my base, looking through glass with a torch in the background...

 

 

 

 

I shouldn't be able to see better through the glass as I do. My gamma is set to 52.

Summary: Insta-complete queue in concrete mixer

Version: A17.2 B27

Platform: (PC or Mac) PC

OS/Version: Windows 7 Ultimate

Game mode, mp host/mp client/sp /client on dedi (RWG or NAV) RWG mp client

 

Did you wipe old saves? (yes/No) No

Did you start a new game? (Yes/No) No

Did you validate your files? (Yes/No) Yes

EAC on or off ? Off

 

Status: NEW

 

Bug Description:

 

Accidentally found out how to insta-complete concrete mixer crafting

 

Reproduce steps:

 

Queued up several stacks, in my case I had ~200 concrete mix left in 3 mixers each. Queued another 999 twice in each mixer. Had cement left over and decided to re-balance the load and cancelled the first order in each queue and distributed what I had left between all mixers. When I opened each mixer a few seconds later (probably after the first item in the next stack had been made) all mixers had completed all stacks, ~2.5k in each mixer. Haven't tested yet if that works in other queues.

 

Update: Ok, verified that this works for workbenches too:

Queued 5 iron spikes and then 50 iron spikes. Cancelled the order of 5. Closed workbench. Waited until craft time for one spike had passed, opened workbench, all 50 spikes completed.
