The Wait Is Over Pt. III - Glitch Report

[Jacoby_Elderfun1]

I already completed Georgia’s poster quest, but when I went on the day after, it showed up again on the quest board.

The first isn't a glitch either. It's part of a new daily quest packet the staff have implemented into the game. They're hoping to continually keep adding newer quests so that we don't get the same ones each day.

[Amelia_Lightgear]

...I hope this won't mean that we'll be missing some quests if we don't log on daily. I'm really not a fan of limited-time stuff in games.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

Yeah, I hope that they accumulate.

[Jacoby_Elderfun1]

...I hope this won't mean that we'll be missing some quests if we don't log on daily.

Yeah, I hope that they accumulate.

I know for a fact that if you don't complete an already accepted mission before the 24 hour mark, it'll be taken away. I don't know if this is true if you haven't accepted the mission and just leave it on the board.

[Amelia_Lightgear]

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.

So actually, if you click on the Cogsworthy Telegraph (the thing with your picture in the top left corner) then a window will come up with all your stats. Then, if you scroll over those stats, another window pops up telling you what they do.

Drat. Well, will they at least cycle through them? (Like they're doing now with the Georgia quest?)

[Raphael_Ashe]

Hooray, daily quests sounds great!

However, I now have a glitch with the "Out for a Roll" quest of escorting Selina, which I have done at least once before, so I know what is supposed to happen. This time, she rolled into the middle of the square (by the statue), and the quest-specific enemy briefly blipped on the screen but then disappeared (without starting a fight), so I'm unable to progress.

If the quest deletes after 24 hours, as reported, I suppose that is one way to resolve the situation.

[Raphael_Ashe]

A few quest-specific problems to report:

1. Update: I was able to add enough Aether to open the Junkyard gate briefly - visually the fog was still there, but the area transition marker was available to move into the Junkyard. I know it was an open glitch on the tracker. Nobody came to join me, so no idea how long it was open for.

2. For the quest "Making Friends" from Ishan (defeat 2 Combustonauts and 4 Pacifiers in the Junkyard), it does not count Crash Pacifiers, and I was unable to find any regular Pacifiers in the Junkyard. Defeating regular Pacifiers in another area also did not count (had to try), so the quest is impossible to complete.

3. For the quest "The Junkyard Menace" from Lukas (defeat the Junkyard Goat), it does not credit defeating the Goat. I waited around and beat it a second time, but still didn't work. Nor did talking to Lukas or trying to give him a horn. So the quest is impossible to complete.

Between these and the glitch reported on another post for "Out for a Roll", I have three glitched-out quests, so I'm hoping the new feature of quests being moved back to the quest board after 24 hours works as advertised.

Last comment today. Merry Christmas!! We're all posting things as we find them, but absolutely spend the holidays with your families, and we can definitely wait a few days for bugs to start getting processed again.

Defeating regular Pacifiers in another area also did not count (had to try), so the quest is impossible to complete.

I experienced this as well, but there are regular pacifiers when you fight with the combustonaut. Keep fighting and then waiting for the combustonaut. That will allow you to complete the quest.

As for On A Roll, just wait and it will disappear from your quest list by the next day.

[Davorox_Deladen1]

OKAY! I seem to have a major glitch. I have 3 different characters for my "Davorox" Account and I logged into my third created account (level 8 soldier) and went to put aether into a lamp post... It said I gained 0 RP so I logged out then back in again, but when I did, It said I ranked up to level 9 (I had just ranked up to level 8 just before) and in the chat it said I had gained over 8000 RP and every time I put aether in the tower I instantly rank up again. I figured what happened is that all my progress from my main account had somehow been transferred to my newer account somehow. So now I have all the items from my main in my small account . . I don't think this was meant to happen? @Mech_Lightspark

[Sierepica_Fuzzywalker]

That is probably related to the Great Engine glitch I reported earlier, only the character switch is a new twist. The stat screenshot is similar. Try fighting an automation or two and see if your character levels up every time. If that levels you up, then you've hit my magic level boosting elevator.

If this persists, I'm going to make a Glitch Compendium entry entitled "The Revenge of the Fuzzywalker" . Okay, I'll probably be able to rein it in to "Overpowered RP Leveling Glitch".

NEW GLITCHES TO REPORT:

1. Platform: Windows 10
Frequency: Unknown
How to Trigger: 1. Craft an "Explorer Diver" outfit (Scholars profession). The craft book updates normally to tell me that the item has been crafted, with the durability stat.
2. Go to the wardrobe. The outfit is not in the Wardrobe, despite the fact that I crafted it.

Interestingly, this item is supposed to take 70 Aether to craft. Crafting it did NOT drain the Aether from my meter, unlike crafting the Shepard's Watch, which I did shortly thereafter. Said Shepard's Watch crafted successfully and showed up normally. (Say what you want, Edna, but the capes are the best thing in the Aetherlight. They still work.)

2. Platform: Windows 10
Frequency: Unknown
How to Trigger: 1. Craft a container of Green Gray Dye on the crafting table.
2. Go to the wardrobe. The dye is not in the wardrobe, despite the fact that I crafted it.

3. Platform: Windows 10
Frequency: 100% of the time.
How to Trigger: 1. Fight the Bombardier in No Man's Landing, right side.
2. Note the health bar of the Bombardier after each hit it makes on the player fighting it.

Said health bar restores 10 health points to the Bombardier after each successful hit it makes on the player. While this won't be enough to stop most players from beating that automation, it shouldn't be happening. It is probably related to the undead goat glitch from earlier.

PLEASE CHECK THE INVENTORY FILE(S) FOR ERRORS/TYPOS AND THE AUTOMATION AND QUEST FILES FOR INFINITE LOOPS! It appears that the outfits not appearing in the wardrobe is related to the missing pink feathers and fur max glitch from earlier. While I could be wrong, I'm starting to see patterns in some of these glitch mistakes. They are starting to look like they have the same root, and my inner programmer just stuck up its antenna again. I have no idea what a complex disaster that code is, but a check of those two areas could knock out a lot of these bugs.

[Jayhawk_Greencape]

On a related note, all plans that you get for leveling up the first time on ANY profession you don't get the plans.

(Also, on @Jayhawk_Niceshoe I have, I think, 4 plans for the gear mask (Which now does nothing along with ~1/2 of other outfits that used to.).)

[Beth_Applemine]

I have a glitch with my Miss Appleblast account. My Resistance Beret is missing completely from my inventory! Last time I played it was there and working fine.

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

Okay, so a bit of a "update" on the Ishaan not being in the Junkyard glitch. One of my newer accounts, Jessie Dearcape, has the quest to give ishaan parts and he isn't in the Junkyard. Buuuut, my newest account, Jess Darkgrate has Ishaan in the Junkyard. So it would appear that it's partially "fixed" except for those that had the glitch to start with. It would seem that newer accounts now have ishaan in the Junkyard, but those where he wasn't, have not been updated.

Another thing for the Darkgrate account. I have the quest for Knocks journal. I got the journal, went to a different location, and it was no longer in my inventory, neither is it back in its spot on the mountain... soooo, that quest is currently unable to be completed on that account.
@Sigmund_Coppermuddle, @Mech_Lightspark

[Ilayne_Merespark]

I’m on the game right now, and currently all the automations are in ghost battles.

Just wanted to say, I know everyone’s reporting glitches - but just wanted to shout out the team for doing all they can. I don’t know who the new moderators are beside a couple but THANK YOU for what you’re doing!! I love this game still even with all the stuff happening.

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

Alright, rhe same goes for Buzz's quest where he won't let us take the bee suit. The accounts that discovered the glitch and are currently stuck, are still stuck. He won't give up the suit. But with a newer account, there is no problem and it goes smoothly.
Is there a way to bump the players that are stuck, past the glitch or reset the quest or something so they can move on in the game?
@Sigmund_Coppermuddle and @Mech_Lightspark. With at least the Buzz Quest and Ishaan quest? I am going to check other quests as well.

[Raphael_Ashe]

Update to my reported glitches:

Title: Game progress currently frozen.
Platform: Windows 11
Frequency: Constant, going on I think 36 hours
Account: Thorns Blackfoam. Second character. Operating on credit from prior purchases.
Details: Stuck in Chapter 1, Level 10, 5 RP. My inventory works as it should (gathering, crafting, spoils of war). Nothing I do gains RP (fighting, lighting lamps, putting aether in the tower, completing daily quests). The goat in the Junkyard still doesn't give credit in order to complete "The Junkyard Menace", but now I'm thinking that the goat is only a symptom of a bigger problem. Unless this quest is required in order to move on, I've completed everything else available to move on to Chapter 2, but am frozen.

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

The Junkyard Menace is not required to be completed to move on to Episode 2. Is it saying you need to subscribe in order to move on? Like your very top mission on the left side of the screen. The storyline.

[Jessie_Dearsnap]

SFTDP
I know before the new updates, once you complete Episode 1, you stop receiving RP at a certain level until you start Episode 2. It could still be the same with this new update?
For example, after completing Episode 3, the max level was 25. So everyone stopped receiving RP after reaching that level.
