The Wait Is Over Pt. III - Glitch Report

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

Is she in the Blessing? Or have you not gotten the Blessing communicator yet?

[Elizabeth_Newroad]

I’m at the part where Alexander and Irving are camping in the Old Mount. I have not yet gotten the Blessing communicator, no.

Update: Cogras are harder than the Yeti. I'm getting clobbered. My rocket hammer barely works against them. The cane will help you survive the battle, because it will reduce the damage, but you're still plastered at 17, even at full Aether.

This is a case of the Straggler Goats part 2. Ugh.

On the positive side, the Snowmoors seem to have undergone a graphics change or downgrade. I'm seeing the same graphics glitches there as the rest of the game. That might help with the teleporting issues, idk. It was a 52 MB download.

[Davorox_Deladen1]

That's a big bummer! I have all the same broken quests as you do.

I've noticed that I can't get pink feathers around the flying L. I will click on it but it doesn't give me the feather. Although the orange feathers work just fine.

Platform: Windows 10 and iPad
Frequency: 100% of the time
How to produce glitch:

Mech, you have seemed to have misplaced all 30 pink feathers I had saved up, and I had more than 300 fur. I haven’t used fur for crafting since the update, and getting new fur in the Snowmoors does not increase the amount of fur from 99.

[caleb_Larkmagnet1]

Ouch, that's almost as painful as _{not being able to teleport.}

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

Heh, if only you knew. The part of myself that enjoys hoarding inventory items for future greatness has been denied.

In addition, it strikes even me as a common programming error. Someone accidentally deleted the entry for the pink feathers when they were editing the game’s item list and erased a 9 at the end of the fur max. The two entries are on the chain next to each other, so they are probably are adjacent in the code as well. I can literally see the error looking at my screen.

Platform: Windows 10
Frequency: 100% of the time for me, though I have not seen anyone else have this problem.
The problem: I am on the quest "A New Kind of Racing" when you go into Engine Bay to fix the Great Engine. It tells me that I need to clear Engine Bay of Automatons, but I already defeated the Automatons that were there. I have logged out and back in a few times but I have not progressed. I cannot continue the story because of this.
How to produce the glitch: Uncertain. I do not know if this affects anything, but I put the one gadget (I can't remember it's name) into the Great Engine, and have tried to fill The Great Engine with Aether. I have also left the place a few times with my Resistance Academy Radio.

Here are the locations where the Automatons were (Lasher, Bomardier, and Green Combustonaut):

We'll be closing this topic temporarily until all the glitch reports have been filled and the team has had time to start fixing them. Sorry for the inconvenience. I guess you guys are too good at finding glitches.

[Jacoby_Elderfun1]

We are reopening this topic. As you can see, more glitches are being added to the GC (Glitch Compendium) and we will hopefully have all of them up soon.

Feel free to keep reporting glitches here. However, to keep the consistency of good flow, I will ask that you add a completed report of one of the above glitches to the GC before posting a new one here. We want to stay ahead and the GC will help us in doing so.

Use this guide when reporting on the GC:

Hello, I recently made a new account and I think I found a glitch. I’ve played the game before and wanted to play it through again since episode 4 came out.
Anyway, on the very first quest after I hammer the boiler, nothing happens. If I remember correctly, Lukas is supposed to show up with plans to fix the boiler, but that doesn’t happen.
If this isn’t a glitch, can someone explain what I’m doing wrong? Thanks

Cannot access later game areas

@Stonefleck_Follyfoam
How exactly does the glitch you posted affect accessing an area? It seems more cosmetic than anything. Let me know if you found something I'm missing!

[caleb_Larkmagnet1]

That sounds like the same problem with my map...

[Miss_N1]

Alright, I just saw the recommendations for reporting glitches so let me try again:

Platform: Ipad
How often it happens: not sure but it happened to two accounts I created
What happened: the first quest wouldn’t progress even after I completed parts of it. It told me to use the hammer on the bio boiler and after I did nothing happened. I think Lukas is supposed to give me crafting plans at that point.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

Did you pick up the hammer before you got the quest?

[Miss_N1]

Sorry for posting again, but now it is saying my password is wrong for both accounts I created. I don’t think I’ll be able to sign back into the forums if I log off either. I don’t remember what I named one of my accounts but the other is @Noelle_Flintnight .

Love the game, getting back into it now that we're moving forward. We have two PCs (Windows), two Raspberry Pi's (simplified Linux OS), and three iPads (various ages). One adult and three pre-teens playing. Here are the bugs we've found:

1. Can't find a way to get the Raspberry Pi's to play the game. Not a show stopper, and sort of expected, but if anyone has advice on "what to open the exe file with", we'd appreciate the advice.

2. On the iPads we are unable to create new characters...goes straight from the login screen to the game without stopping at the "choose which character to use" screen.

3. For an iPad workaround, we tried to create a new character on the PC (where the game mostly works great) and then log in and use it on the iPads, but still no luck getting to it on the iPads, because they default to the original character. Tried to use the delete button on the "choose character" screen, but it wouldn't let us delete the original (main) character. Also couldn't find a way to even see whether there is more than one character for a player on the parent's dashboard. Finally gave up and had two people playing new characters on the PCs and two people playing old characters on the iPads.

4. When in combat with just new players (see #3 for systems), it seems to work fine. When just using old players, there are still "invisible enemies" occasionally, but there seems to have been a lot of bug clearing as of 19 Dec. However, when in combat with a mix of old and new characters, it would often freeze, requiring the old character to flee for the fight to progress, and then run over to re-join to help finish it and get the rewards.

5. I know the admins are already tracking the problem of weapons being too high level to be used. However, since the first weapon you receive disappears after the first upgrade, I'm now level 6 and stuck with a Gyro Hammer that I can't use in a fight until level 20. At least I can still hit things with it on the map view (hooray lenses). And I stopped myself from crafting the Flamethrower, which would have left me without a wrist weapon until level 14.

   • My two cents: If we were able to craft backwards to the first weapons we received, that would solve this problem because we could self-correct...and also keep those additional weapon options, for those of us who enjoy large inventories.

6. The first rifle is OP for that level, causing high initial damage plus radiation. We would have kept it if upgrading it wasn't required to advance the storyline. And we can't wait to see more radiation damage weapons.

7. Similarly, any clothing (body, hat, or face) that was picked up or issued, rather than crafted, does not currently have a way to be repaired as its durability goes down, because repairing is done at the crafting table and not in the wardrobe. I have not gotten below 75 durability yet on anything, so I'm not sure what happens to an item when its durability gets down to zero and it can't be repaired.

8. Part of me doesn't want to report this, because I'm happy that my Mechanic could craft the Sniper Rifle with just another rifle and a screw, but some of the "reduced crafting requirements" rules could get ridiculous if everything gets reduced that way. Might need to look at the balance of the reductions. It could also explain why, as a level 6 mechanic who hasn't actually gone to the Isle yet, I'm able to make the Flamethrower and Gyro Hammer.

Additional Notes:

1. Hooray, on 19 Dec the "ghost" fights seem to have been cleared!

2. Super happy that the new combat rules better incentivize teamwork from the very beginning.

3. I know the game has always enforced an attitude of "let the players figure it out themselves" from a quests and combat perspective, but there really needs to at least be an in-game appendix to look up what all the new terms and skills mean.

Thanks for reading all the way to the end of my very long first post to the forum, and I'm excited to keep playing and watching the debugging happen real-time!
