What to do if you find a bug or typo

[graebor]

Dyscourse is a complicated game with tons of dialogue and detail - it's possible you'll come across an issue in the game that we've missed.

If your game is fully crashing and closing, it will help greatly to give us your Player Log! That's found here on Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\dyscourse\Dyscourse_Data\output_log.txt and on Mac, it's found here: ~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log. (For Mac, that means that you will need to go to your User folder, open the hidden folder called Library, then find the Logs/Unity/Player.log file)

In the beginning of the game when Rita is on the island and picks up the frying pan, I can't exit to the right. I have clicked everything and picked up everything that I could. When I stand near the right or go to the right nothing pops up. So I am unable to investigate. I have restarted the game and also made multiple new games in hopes it would work. I am at a loss.

A thread already exists for that issue, here: http://steamcommunity.com/app/234920/discussions/1/618457398958330877/

Could you please post in that thread with details about what kind of monitor/resolution you have and what resolutions are available to you in the graphics options? When you do so I'll delete your post in this thread to keep the sticky clean.

I've been trying to get the marriage achievement (for stopping the divorce).

I took thedivorce papersand brought George & Jolene on the raft. In one of their dialogues they talked about the divorce and it looked like they even reconciled. When the game ended, they still gotdivorced.

Bug or intended?

This is an entirely possible outcome. Without giving too much away, here's why: There are 3 main points in the game where you can affect the condition of George and Jolene's marriage. The divorce papers are obviously one of those points, and while it's possible to save their marriage after revealing the papers, it is more difficult. Regardless of this, allowing Jolene to burn the papers or bypassing the papers altogether is not in itself enough to save the marriage. You need to do a little bit more for them in order to fully reconcile. Of course, they both need to survive to see rescue as well.

I'm not sure what you mean by this, so please follow the instructions in this post about pressing F1 in the game to report your bug. This way you can submit a screenshot and detailed information directly to us to show us the problem.

If you're unable to use the F1 bug reporter for any reason, make a new thread about your issue and we'll address it.

[Inksy]

ok doing that now then

This wasn't quite right for an ingame bug report and I actively didn't notice it until I was looking at my screenshots I took, so I couldn't use F1 then anyway. But when Rita loses her hand to frostbite on the mountain, it's very clearly her left (player's right) hand that's fallen off. However, if Rita is facing the right hand side of the screen, it shows her with her right hand (player's left) missing instead. It's sort of weird to see the missing hand switch each time. I have some screenshots of this that I can link if you need them.

@FallenAngelEyes - Thanks for reporting, we've got that one written down and will take care of it.

@Ink - We got your report and are unable to reproduce this issue on our end. It looks like a graphics bug, can you try updating your graphics drivers?

[Inksy]

I appreciate you working on that... and i finally got a new pc in and the game works beautifully.. i think it was just my crappy laptop... thanks for looking into it for me!

I figure you probably are aware of this one, as it's related, I played a new scenario today where Rita loses her hand to the jaguar in the cave when she tries to use a flare to distract it. Poor Rita just can't catch a break! But the same issue happens here too. If she looks different directions, her missing hand is switched.

The game crashes on Day 4. After Rita picekd up the wood and says she's going to fire it. I tried to re-play several times without success. Can"t press F1 or anything else.... Did anyone encounter this problem ? Any help would be REALLY appreciated.

So I found a quite amusing glitch. Here's what I did: I killed off everyone except for George and Jolene the day before you start the final path to rescue. The next day I set off for the far side of the island, Rita got hungry, we all had some bad (many would say good) mushrooms, and I'm not sure if this is random or not but Jolene's trip triggered LAST, and when Rita yelled for everyone to run away I was confused to see that George and Rita's heads were still food. I have a screenshot of it here: http://steamcommunity.com/id/tyrov/screenshot/38620845884141291

My apologies I didn't use the bug reporting system, as I didn't even know it was there, but with the instructions to recreate it hopefully it can be done on other systems too to confirm it.

[Jedo]

I experienced that too.

Most likely a glitch, yeah.

[graebor]

Thanks Tyrov - I've logged that issue and will get it fixed.

[ARRAKIS]andy-go - could you please email details about your crash as well as a copy of your output log to support (at) owlchemylabs (dot) com? (Instructions for finding your output log are at the top of this thread)
