Bug - List of Anomalies - No more Reports here, please! 1

[WakWak]

Oh hello fellow Drifters and Arrr ,

this is a try to gather all those loose Anomalies in one net, so it is easier for everyone to have an overview on new and old Anomalies. I made this already for an other game and it was very well recieved. I like this game because it really writes Adventure with capital letters and the Graphics and Ambience are really supportive towards a feeling of freedom and independence out on the sea.

Please write a short description on what you have seen and what you did before it happened and I try to put it in the list. Make sure that anomalies regarding lagg are not related to your Internet-Connection, so that nothing lands here that just happens because you may have opened up too many programs. Thank you very much.

Here you can find the recent Lists:

Some Advice: You may sometimes wonder if you actually have taken something out of the water or not. This seems to have to do something with maybe lagg. But If you click on it, it will get into your inventory a second or two later, sometimes a bit more. So don't get frustraded about that at the moment and just click on everything one time. I got used to it pretty quick for now.

Also, it often seems to help to just logout of the world and back into it, if stuff does not appear at a quest, production is not working or the crew refuses to repair.

There is another Issue at the moment, where the production seem to be lost after you log out. But in the background the Production still goes on and if you log in again after the time it needed to produce, it is there. At least it was the few times I tested it.

Bug-List

• I. Ship
  
• II. Base
  
• III. Open-World (Coordinates)
  
• IV. Menue / User-Interface
  
• V. Steam / Technicals

I. Ship

1. Crafting

- When I build a weapon, the Amount of Ressources stays the same after the construction is finished and I only see if I can build more by the white highlight on the Hammer-Icon.

- Also, if I can build more than one weapon of the same kind, I have to wait until one is finished to get the next one in line.

- Sometimes when I want to craft a weapon, it asks me who should craft it, but sometimes it just goes straight to crafting. I guess this is to the crewmembers who are available at the moment, but I'm not sure.

2. Arranging

- When I'm arranging Stuff on my ship I'm not able to deconstruct parts, so I have to get out two times and get into my regular inventory to deconstruct something.

- When I'm demontaging stuff from the inventory, it switches to the 3D-Model, so I have to get back to the inventory to see which parts have which stats to see which ones I want to demontage.

3. Crew

- Crew do not repair the ship even though resources are in hold.
And yes, automatic repairs are set to repair hull to 100%, and asking for manual repair only repair some parts of the hull while some others are completely ignored.
[Relogging into the world seems to be a working solution here as well.]

- I was progressing in the game and started to unlock everyone for my base on three whales. I got progressed up to the point where i need a shipright. THe Sharkee named Laoshai. From the krakens on tirpitz. I had already been doing missions threw the order and it never gave me the option to get Laoshai. I think it might be because i hadnt gotta shaya on my crew yet. The game seems bugged and wont let me actually access the shipright from the bar.

- I've noticed that crew members stop repairing the ship while you're crafting. For example, I have two repairmen and if one of them is crafting the other one just sits there without repairing anything. [Good to set the regular repairs at the autorepairsettings to start from 100% to 100% to have a fully repaired ship.]

- The Emergency-Setting for each Crew-Member is either repairs or pump, but somehow you can click on one and the other one stays checked, so you don't get the option to apply your options, instead of that the other one just unchecks itself.

- My Crew keeps on changing position on my weapons without me telling so, from time to time after visiting the base.

- Sometimes the Icons for my crew when they are doing something wont go away and stay in grey. They even can do other stuff and the Icons still wont go away until I relog.

4. Inventory

- There is no Auto-Sort-Function and so stuff like paint or weapon-parts are on different positions in the Storage and the Base's Storage.

- When dismantling, no feature to select several objects and have them dismantled at the same time.

- Missing feature to mark specific objects as "favourite" as not to dismantle them by misstake.

- Lacking feature to easy compare two weapons.

5. Items

- My Binocular-Decoration doesn't get repaired by the usual Repair-Cycle.

- My Scanner stopped working. Made a relogg and it's on again. But sometimes it is peeping even if the Area was looted.

- Even after a Relog, the crew refused to repair my cannon, despite having the ressources and trying to repair it manually.

- echo sounder sea bottom scanner - If you got the thing activated that shows the ground (for looting) and board a ship, this thing stops working and cannot be actived again.

6. Stearing

- All of a sudden when I would hit boost to go faster my boat would nose dive in the water. never happened until today and nothing changed. at first i thought it was the weight of the cannons on the front but nope. removed them and it still does that.

7. Boarding

- Yesterday i was getting good loot that could either be used or scrapped for much needed resources and it gave me hope that i could actually start making progress in having T3 and T4 items on my ship...but today i have gotten barely a 1/4th of the loot per ship that i was getting yesterday.

8. Fishing

- At the moment even trying to catch the smallest fish seems to be a hard mission, bigger ones seem impossible to catch. The reeling in is just too short and the getting further out is just too fast. It was easier before...

---

II. Base

1. Crew hidden outside Screen

- At Three Whales City the Crew is hidden on the right side and no Indication of them being there, until you just click outside of the right side of the screen. [I've just realized that you can hold the middle mousebutton to look around at your base. Who knew, haha?!] And Shaya does not seem to be available for conversation in the list on the right side when talking to the other three.

2. Shiprepair

- No feature to repair whole boat or part of it.

3. Storage

- No feature to dismantle objects.

- An Option to transfer 90% of something, so I can keep something on the ship for repairs and don't have to fade everything per hand every time.

- I can't tell which Object between others similar I want to transfer, because there is no statistic shown.

- When I want something to be transfered between my base and my freightspace, the inventory jumps up if you transfer something and the last item in a Storage-Row gets one row up. That interrupts a quick transfer from Storage to Base-Storage, because you accidently might click on something a row above because the List adjusts itself.
Better would be a static inventory, so you dont mislick on something you dont want to transfer.

- When I transfer something from my ship to the base the inventory jumps to the first row when I try to transfer something from the rows at the bottom. So I have to scrool down every time again.

- There should be an option to not get asked again if I am sure to want to deconstruct something. And maybe just a keyboard-button for easy click and deconstruct.

- After a long ride out on the sea, my ship gets to the base and unloads the cargo. But now I can't load anything on my boat anymore, because inside my base it says I have only 130t capacity, while outside it says 150t like usual and my bar at the bottom has space enough. Even after a relog and getting outside and back into the base again.

- Rocks don't stack.

- No stacking for Ballast: Why do each stone (Ballast) take up one slot? Just stack them together all in one slot.

4. Production

- I can produce weapons while on my boat, but I cant produce same weapons while in base.

- Tried to produce a Water-Tank but there was no start of the progress until I logged out and back into the world again and retried it.

- If you start producing something on the base (battery, generator, etc.) and then leave the game, production will be canceled and the resources spent will be lost.
[Tested it and the production-Cycle first went missing, but after some time and a relogg, I got everything produced. But that means that you can craft stuff, logg out and craft stuff again and the Production goes on in the background at the same time, instead of producing just one thing after another, you can line up several Stuff this way. it's usefull but not sure if it is intended.]

- Please address the weapons factory in our base not working/crafting while we are offline. weapon parts are already scarce as it is and it is already expensive to repair weapons leading to weapons never being fully repaired.

- No way to set how many of the item you want produced. Worthless having to build one at a time then repeat 10 times.

- No information before production: When deciding to build an item, example a plastic shield or wooden shield, there is literally no stats showing the values of protection each will give. Players are forced to look at external pages or time consuming placements of said objects to see their values before deciding what to build.

5. Shipyard

- When I try to get one thing from one ship to another while I am in the Shipyard, everything I demontage gets send to the Ship's storage instead of the Base's. So I have to get out of everything, go to the Ship's Storage get the thing out of there and go back to the ship I want to place the thing.

- Charisma superstructure set weight issue
Be careful if you plan to build the charisma superstructure set, I think the cabin and main superstructure have a weight issue. While most structures weight between 3 to 7 tons, these weight 34tons each. I think they are supposed to weight only 3.4tons.

6. Technology

- I'm at Technology-Stage III and at the Construction-Site the Motor-Workshop already has no "Undiscovered"-Flag on it anymore, but the Motor-Workshop is only discovered at Stage IV. Not sure if I can build it, because of ressources at the moment.

7. Relogin

- Got logged out at my base because I did something else for a minute too long. Logged back in and was infront of the base, on my first little boat with everyone snuggled together. Everything in the storage of my Ship I originally used is gone, except my Echolot, Quest Items, Power-Ups and Enter-Tools. But weirdly my third ship was untouched. Looked on my map and had a lost Loot-Crate at E:11:, where I was not for a long time. Got there and all my loot I had in my ship, including my lure, was right there.

8. Building

- So would like to note the walkways in the base are using more fiber then it says it cost. Had around 1100 fiber, and put in about 12 walkways(1x1) and I am somehow down by 300ish fiber.
[Yeah, somehow I paid 17 Fiber and 28 Wood for one walkway, instead of 6 and 10.]

---

III. Open-World (Coordinates)

1. Quests

[It seems that sometimes you need to logout and log into the World again, even right on the spot it then spawns what is needed for the quest.]

- R:10: - Hornfish-Skin-Quest
Not sure if I have to fish here, but there is nothing but the usual treasure and the only wreckage close by has no Hornfish-Skin. Even after multiple returns.
After another try it was finally there on the surface, all good for me now.

- N:11: - New Coordinates-Quest
The same here, I could not find anything after multiple returns.
Got there another time and this time it was on the surface, ready to be found by me, alrighty!

- H:9: - Technology of the Scavenger
After I spoke to Squeeze(I guess) the Rangers did not show up. Only after I left the world and joined again right at Squeeze's raft, suddenly the Rangers appeared.
I believe, after all these instances where nothing showed up on a mission, it has to do with me not getting recognized by the program in some sort anymore. Which means I get kicked out in some sort at some point, even if I am still playing.

- P:10: - Q:10:
Was running fast and got my nose rammed into the water infront of Bobber's, flipped over and drowned. Must have hit some kind of invisible Wall there.

- Journal of Discord, it tells you to get money from some pirates, it spawns 3 ships, but 1 of them does spawn but goes underwater(basically it spawns but just keeps falling), then starts fast blasting you and rips your hull open like it was tissue paper.
S:14: might be the best guess since I know the location was to the right and above of the T5 gunboat patrol spawn over there), but its enemies spawned by the mission Journal of Discord which is the Tier 5 generator item.

- L:7: - Cabins Level 4
Hina says Ryu hides because they are gonna clean up their home, but Ryu sits right next to her.

- I:5: - I:6: - Cabins Level 4
Fought at the same spot with someone else with the same misson, so we had double enemies. But I was able to get my device, then we fought again and I was able to accidently pick up the same device again, probably from his mission.

- Chasing the Courier. I killed the courier at the last second. It didn't register the quest completion (said I failed) but still dropped the loot. I picked up the loot. Now I can't drop the loot, and can't start the quest node again so it's perma-stuck.

- So the research that makes you get the uninterruptible power supply, Kitty talks during a scene in it, and she for some reason has the voice of a man, but it matches the words said. Made me laugh after I realized what was happening.

- Bertha's Motorworkshop-Quest-Dialog suddenly switches in the middle to her Loom-Workshop-Dialog when try to finish it. So she talks about Mermaid again, while you actually rescued Samson.

2. Death-Zones

- N:16: - O:16: Pirates
4 Pirat-Ships are spawning again as soon as they got destroyed.

- S:16: - T:16: Scavengers
2 sets of 2 Scavengers respawning even while I was fighting the ones that just spawned.

3. NPCs

- For some Reason, while trying to trade with NPC's to look what's there, but then decide to not take anything, the button at the bottom to leave the conversation is not active and I have to click on the X at the top corner.

- Going to the map cuts the dialogs when I'm out on the sea.

4. Fog of War

- I drove alreadey to the Ambassadors Place, but somehow up there is Fog of War again. Not sure if It should get dark again where you have not been a long time.

- The map periodically resets the discovered area for some reason...why?

---

IV. Menue / User-Interface

1. Mangrove-Pearl-Icon

- The Mangrove-Icon oftens blocks sight on enemy ships in battle because it is on the same level as the Horizon.

2. Notifications

- A function where I can choose to deactivate incomming Event-Notifications, so it wont get annoying if more events are getting set up.

3. Map

- When using a controller and trying to view the world map it often snaps the camera back to the center of the window, making it very hard to put down pins quickly.

- After an unusual happening where my cargo can only hold 130t instead of 150t anymore, my map is now covered by the Fog of War again, except the Buildings I have already visited.

- The Map is covered with the fog of war again and again... every day...

4. Shop

- There is no way to tell if the costly cabins are good for what I have in mind or not, since I don't see their structural outlinings.

---

V. Steam / Technicals

1. Achievements

-

2. Programstart

-

3. Server-Stability

-

4. Reconnection

- While the Server is getting updated, I found myself in an endless loop of asking the server if it is updated and going back to the Information that it is being updated. There is no way out of it than to shoot the Program down. Please don't let me shoot you down.

5. Settings

- Music stops playing at some point. I mean the music stops, completely, for hours.

- My Fullscreen gets automaticly set back to fullsized frameless Window sometimes, when I relog the other day.

By the way, I really really like to just drive through the whole map and have only used the translocater two times. Once at the Intro and a second time on accident while I got my stuff out of the swirl. Thank you guys so much for this game! Great Start!

Yeah, Laoshai doesn't trust you without the good word from Shaya, I guess. At least that's how my conversation went with those two.
I think that's on purpose.

I think the Music-Thing is on purpose as well, because I kinda like it not playing it all the time.

On the Crew thing, just to be sure, have you checked your settings by pressing "F"? There you can set the configurations on what procentage your parts start to get repaired.

- When I'm arranging Stuff on my ship I'm not able to deconstruct parts, so I have to get out two times and get into my regular inventory to deconstruct something.

- When I'm demontage stuff from the inventory, it switches to the 3D-Model, so I have to get back to the inventory to see which parts have which stats to see which ones I want to demontage.

[ForrestFox]

Maybe not a bug, but missing features.
In base: No feature to repair whole boat or part of it.
In base: No feature to dismantle objects. (Outside base when dismantling, no feature to select several objects and have them dismantled at the same time.
Inventory: Missing feature to mark specific objects as "favourite" as not to dismantle them by misstake.
Production: I can produce weapons while on my boat, but I cant produce same weapons while in base.
Weapon comparision: Lacking feature to easy compare two weapons.

[Vaken]

-I've noticed that crew members stop repairing the ship while you're crafting. For example, I have two repairmen and if one of them is crafting the other one just sits there without repairing anything.
