PlaneShift

Not all shortcuts from shortcuts window are in "Options→Controls→Shortcuts"
If you set/change a key in shortcuts window the key does not get set/changed in options window until you relog.

The following is not really a bug but more feature request
If you set a key you can set
LShift - RShift
LCtrl - RCtrl
LAlt - RAlt

But if you make key combos it will just turn to
Shift+key
Ctrl+key
Alt+key

Would it be possible to set
LShift+key
LCtrl+key
LAlt+key
RShift+key
RCtrl+key
RAlt+key

That will open up allot more possible key combinations.

Since you can set the sharps and flats for the overall piece of music, you should be able to insert naturals. Otherwise, if you need to cancel one of the sharps/flats for the key you are using anywhere in the music, your only alternative is to write in all the sharps and flats throughout by hand.

It would be helpful if measures were numbered.
It would be extremely helpful for writing music to be able to just play the last measures added. It would be useful for RP purposes, too, since that is how one often practices a piece… working on one section at a time, or you might want to share part of something you had written.

How to reproduce: Run into the area between the large boulder and the cliff face there.

What should happen: Your char should, at worst, have to /unstick out of it, or be respawned due to the map leak.

What does happen:

1. Your char (sometimes) gets ‘leaked’ off the map and starts to fall through it
2. As your char falls, they get put back in the normal map area because of the concavity of the cliff face below the path there.
3. Result: a DR trip, because your character goes “splat” at the bottom of the Bronze Doors canyon.

I was working on a batch of Liquid Bread Rise and kept getting “You are not sure what to do with this.” I realize this will probably be nearly impossible to reproduce so I’ll try to explain as best I can exactly what I was doing.

I had started by combining the ingredients (1 Foaming Water, 2 Pinches of Salt, 14 Scoops of Lard) on the preparation table, yielding Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough. Then decided to combine them in the wooden bowl so I could go straight to the mixing step. I had already combined 3 when I switched. I added the ingredients to the wooden bowl and combined, letting it automatically do the mixing step, and this worked fine. The I tried to mix the Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough I had previously combined on the table and that is when I got the “You are not sure what to do with this” message. As long as I combined the items in the wooden bowl and then mixed them I had no trouble. If I tried to put in previously combined Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough it gave me the error message. Several times I reflexively hit the Take All and Stack before it was mixed, and when I tried to put it back in the bowl and mix it I got the error message.
Eventually I had to stop and measure out more scoops of lard, which required switching my wooden spoon for the scoop, since I was also holding a Dagger of Seduction (and wearing a Merc Helm of Seduction, if that matters). After I switched back, I was able to mix the Unmixed Liquid Bread Dough without any trouble… for awhile. (I didn’t realize right away that was what made it work)
Eventually though the problem popped up again (when I prematurely grabbed the mix before it was done, and tried to put it back and finish mixing it, it said “You are not sure what to do with this”) Again, the problem resolved when I switched to measuring lard and back. This happened three times in all. I didn’t put together that it was when I switched tasks that it started working until the third time it happened, so I didn’t have a chance to try just switching tools to see if that was what was fixing it.

I would like to continue chatting while I load to a different map. Can the chat window become independent and on top of all windows?

This appears to be an option to have lines that appear in Main chat prefaced by origin e.g. [guild], [alliance], etc., provided a user has filtered messages from other chat tabs to appear in Main. However, it seems to work whether or not the option is enabled. Is this a bug or just deliberately no longer an option?

When a player summons a mount (creature to ride on), eventually the creature disappear depending on how high Empathy skill is.

When trying to use the RING Of SUMMON FAMILIAR again, it says it's depleted and can't be used.

Please kindly create an ALERT in the MESSAGE TAB of chat telling player how much time remaining is left to wait for the ring to be used again with a countdown and then a sound effect that reminds the player that magical energy is now regenerated in ring.

messages.cpp misses another operand?

if(command == “/newguild” || command == “/endguild” || command == “/guildname” || command == “/guildpoints” || command == “/allianceleader”)

 {
     guildname = words.GetTail(1);
     return;
 }

Setting guild MOTD is accidently tied to public notes privilege?

guildmanager.cpp

  if ( ! IsLeader(client))
      if ( ! CheckClientRights(client, RIGHTS_EDIT_PUBLIC, "You do not have rights to change the message of the day in your guild."))
          return;

My understanding is that /setmemberpermissions [member-name] should allow a user with editing permissions to set/change individual guild member permissions, but the command seems to be broken. A bug or intentional?

Pretty much says is all. Possibly depends on  FS#5366 

Venalan will understand :)

Drifters Section

“This gas is highly acidic and damages a persons equipped items if they stand in the mist.”

This should be changed to:

This gas is highly acidic and damages a person’s equipped items if they stand in the mist.

Note the apostrophe to indicate a singular possessive noun (person’s).

For crafting book /use command equips book in mind slot - and it’s OK, I think.
But how to open crafting book for reading, as of RMB click in inventory?

Then dragging a book from inventory to shortcut window, /use command is created.
But /use command for common book just results in a book, equiped in righthand slot (in case it’s empty).
Book isn’t opened for reading nor writing, so where is no result of using it. So no /use…

After equipping a common book in a hand slot, /use [slot-name] command just kills the psclient… This one really unexpected :(

/write [item-name] command syntax not working on a writable book, resulting message is: “You cannot write on this item” -
but this syntax described in a Help window! And /write [slot-name] syntax works as expected.

I think it’s clear that /read command for a books must exist to make complete set. Some use cases:

* want to read any book - use /read [item-name] or /read [slot-name]
* want to write to a writable book - use /write [item-name] or /write [slot-name]
* want to equip / dequip any book - use /equip and /dequip commands

Sane default results for /use command:

* Crafting book - equip in a mind slot.

It's a reference book, to take a look from time to time in a crafting process, after all.

* Common book and writable book - open book reading window. Using a book in a real world means “read it”.

Other "uses" (as a blunt weapon, fuel, press-papier, etc.) are less common.

When a male nolthrir is mounted on a rivnak his legs stick into the rivnak.

I've noticed that the sound effects for things like fountains and fires seem to be based on where the camera is located, not where the player is.

To demonstrate, go to 3rd person follow mode and move the camera well back from the character. Position the character near a sound generating item (fireplace in front of temple works). You won't hear it. Move away from the object so that the camera is next to it and you will hear it.

In the current state, if you have focus in the text box of the chat, none of your shortcut hotkeys work, even if they’re mapped to keys that do nothing in the chatbox, such as F1-12, Ctrl, Alt, Tab, Pause, etc.

I’m filing this as a bug report, because either this should be “fixed” so we can map shortcuts to such keys so they will still work while chatting, or the team can decide this is “not a bug” and close it.

The “fix” therefore, is to trap only those keys that chatbox can deal with, and forward anything else to the shortcut processor, so while typing in chat W A S D would be trapped in chat, and F3 would fire the shortcut it’s mapped to.

A UI improvement: This would make things much more convenient for spells like Dweomer Detection, but generally in cases where an action is performed on an object such as repairing weapons and armor. It would be great if the object of the action was (first choice) an external object that you have in focus. If there is no such object, use the one in the sword hand.

Right now, there is a mix of both of these things implemented. This would make it consistent and convenient. Right now it's quite awkward to have to drop an item, and then focus on it before casting a spell on it.

The screenshots pretty much tell the whole story.

1) Have char A (Primatus for me) enter the GH and sit on some furniture.
2) Have char B (Sabor) log into the GH.

A on A’s client is atop the furniture, while on B’s client A is in the furniture. Probably a symptom of the known issues with object spawning in PS, but still….really guys?

When you use a shape-shifting spell like Gorwealform (assuming the same holds for Polymorph) while mounted, the speed is not set correctly and you can reach no more than walking speed afterwards.

(Merrinez’ Bad Mood)

When I carelessly executed the reply “Thses might help your hands.” (typo fix is probably already pending server update), the gloves my character wears disappeared from his hands, and Merrinez received them. I thought worn armor is not considered to be taken in quests?

It would be useful to have some knowledge areas accessible through the drop down dialog system, perhaps behind a chooser toggle "quest/knowledge area"
The dialog could default to quest dialog always opening the list window with the no-quest error in place of the list if there is no relevant quest dialog and a button for showing the KAs. This way the useful information the npcs have is not lost unless you know exactly what to ask them.

If you drop an item from your inventory while you are casting analyze dweomer on an another item you receive the message that the item you are identifying is already dead.
For example here I was analyzing Fire Bones Mercenary helm. When I dropped from the inventory another helm I got this message.

(11:09:55) >You start casting the spell Analyze Dweomer
(11:09:59) >Fire Bones Mercenary Helm is already dead.

I am running ps on a OSX system running 10.9.2. The game crashes regularly however when I am playing it. It doesn’t always happen at the same time or in the same place. It seems that it always gives this error though.

If you fall off the dais where the fire carkerass is and you have max stats you do not die and you cannot return to the temple. To get back you have to commit suicide.

When I am moving items out of my inventory and get the window to confirm the number of items to move, if the confirmation window is over another window, clicking the OK button closes the amount window (correctly) but pulls the lower window to the top.

Steps to reproduce: Position the Inventory window such that the left overlaps the middle of another window (e.g. a container). Pick a stack of items from the left inventory window with a left-button click. The Amount window should appear with the "OK" button over the lower window. Click "OK." The items will be picked up but the other window will now be on top of the inventory window.

The click action does not trigger an action in the lower window. If the shortcut window is the lower window, the shortcut under the OK will not be triggered, but the shortcut window will be pulled to the top. This may be related to PS#6251.

the inscription reads that “Talad may bless the souls” this implies that he also may not. “May Talad bless” or simply “Talad bless” would be a plea for his intercession. “Talad blesses” would be an affirmation to the reader that they are indeed blessed by Talad whether or not it is actually true.

The map that shows up when you take a pterosaur flight shows a river identified as the Irifon River between Gugrontid and the Bronze Doors. However, there’s no river there and the Irifon is actually located between Hydlaa and Ojaveda.

As the title suggests you continue to get the system message you have gained practice when using a skill despite your practice level not actually increasing.

Hello everyone!
I have updated my client on 2014-05-01 via launcher. Now game crashes in a few seconds right after loading the world. I can see environment, but my character is not able to move, chat interface is not accessible. After about 20 seconds game crashes and returns to a launcher window. I have tried to clear cache before starting, but it doesn’t help. Using “elves” interface skin by default, but changing to another (scholar) leads to the same behaviour. There was no such issue before an update, but it was some weeks ago, maybe system updates can cause a problem as well. Creating a new character does not help much: I can walk a few steps and then game crashes. After that there is no chance to proceed playing using a brand new char because it starts up already “broken”.
My system is: OS: Russian Fedora Remix 20, 3.8 GB RAM, Intel Core i5 CPU 661@3.33 GHz x 4, OS type 64-bit, Graphics Gallium 0.4 on NVC1, GNOME 3.10.2. Operating system is up to date (all latest updates installed successfully)
Update: I have tried to download a new *.run installer, renamed /home/PlaneShift and /home/.PlaneShift and reinstalled client. Same result: the world is loading, I can see my char standing near Harnquist’s blacksmith area, but GUI is frozen and no movement or animation. after a few seconds game crashes back to launcher window.

when the focus is on the inventory (inventory is the active window) i can not make my character go forwards or backwards using the arrow keys. once focus is off of the inventory i can control movement. however left and right still work.

As the title suggests if you add a name like;

Venalan

And you then edit this to say

Venalan “dev”

When you load the client next time around the " will have broken the aliases_name.xml file so none of the added name notes will show. It is because you end up with the following in the xml file

<alias name=”Venalan” alias=”Venalan “Dev”” />

the extra [dev”“] is an unknown component of the <alias /> so breaks the whole formatting of the file.

It would be extremely useful to have a dedicated file for all quest chat that you could enable.

Often then I'm trying to speak with NPC using "new" NPC dialog, on activate it shows NPC's reply bubble with a common public phrase (instead of [private] quest choices).

Think that NPC speech bubble should be displayed only for NPC's replies on quest choices / answers. Rule is simple: no quest choices made in dialog session = no need to show NPC reply bubble. All other NPC talk should be directed to the chat.

During the last Dev Meeting, there was a good discussion about looting problems, especially after killing multiple opponents.
Aliasing with “/target next” does not solve the problem, because several players confirmed that this command tends to skip corpses.

Therefore Eredin asked for this ticket as a reminder to check the command.

6 times in 2 hours since the update the game crashed. Returned to version 0.6.1 and it stopped. Tried lowering graphical settings to no affect.

Today I saw two characters with a supposedly empty family name, yet it seems to be present. When you greet them, the system message with a trailing dot looks like:

SelfFirstName SelfLastName greets TargetFirstName  .

According to the log file, it is indeed a whitespace, not an Unicode invisible char.

I wonder if it may be related to PS#6482, but I doubt.

On install, the launcher defaults to a software sound source which seems to do nothing. I get no sound from it in either windows or linux. Perhaps it should default to openal if that is the only sound system that actually works. Possibly the software selector in pslaunch should be removed or renamed “no sound”

When you equip an item with “BOTH HANDS” flag an icon appears in only the left or right hand inventory slot, whichever you dropped it in.

As the weapon takes up both ‘LEFT’ and ‘RIGHT’ hands it would be clearer if the same icon appeared in both hands to make it clear that both hands are taken up by one item.

It should also be possible to deequip it from the icon in either hand.

At the moment two handed items appear in a single hand and use the animations for single hand weapons. There needs to be a new set of equip and attack animations for each race for two hand weapons.

i cant dequip it while repairing but i can equip another item so the one im repairing is in inventory

we need a facility to allow morph, scaling, settrait and related commands to be in effect for the current login -OR- persist across logins -OR- permanently change the base character. Obviously there should be appropriate permissions requirements especially for changes to the base.

commands to save or load a character stored in an xml file. Should be able to specify short term, persistent or base level characteristics.

musicians trying to sync up to play as a band/group is difficult.
to fix this i suggest commands /groupplay and /groupstop be made
the musicians would form a group and each one would put the song they are to play in their left hand (that way one person can play a flute piece and another plays a lira piece, another drums, etc)
the group leader would issue the commands for starting and stopping
the system would broadcast the command to each client to start playing (like the way group chat is sent to the members of the group).
the piece would play at the default speed for the music score
if the group is disbanded while playing everyone would have to automatically stop playing
if a player leaves the group they would have to automatically stop playing too.

only difficulty I would see is if one of the players is unable to play the selected piece at the default speed, the system would either have to have that person not play with an error of not talented enough or play at the fastest they can play (which would sound bad but be realistic)

I’ve updated the bug to reflect what is happening with the current code, r9606

At the moment the following option will show “red apple (1 of 2) (1/2)” and “red apple (1 of 2) (2/2)” for the menu pair Menu: no. Menu: yes.

…

P:RA.
Menu: bla.
Smith: wana help.
P:RA1. P:RA2.
Menu: no. Menu: yes.
Smith: shame.
Smith: good.
Complete red apple step 4.

It seems there are now duplicate code checks for counting subsets, or duplicate displays of one counting. This option should really show “red apple (1/2)” and “red apple (2/2)”.

Also now, when you have 8 menus visible from many different quests the number shown is (1/8)-(8/7) so it is done on a total number of menus available, not on a by quest basis. For example, if you have 3 quests active and 8 steps the numbering could be (1/3)(2/3)(3/3), (1/2)(2/2), (1/3)(2/3)(3/3)

When you add a filter string to the /study window the empty lines between the item entries is lost such that you end up with long list of items. I think it might look better if the empty lines were maintained when a search string is entered

I would be nice to have the option to set the filter string to “item names” or “processes”. Such that you could search for an item “battle axe” and only see the steps under the heading “battle axe*” or search processes for things like “apple” and see every step that uses an apple.

As the title suggests, when you change the button height with width set to ‘auto’ I would expect the button width to scale with it. It does not. If you change the width setting from auto→manual→auto the correct width is set.

Potentially related

It is possible that when names appear the window correctly resizes and the full name is shown. But when you move back to images only the width is set to the minimum so you end up with very tall very thin buttons. But the icons have the dimensions you would expect for button height set to max so you can only see the central portion of the icon.

I can make this happen by following these steps.

1 - Button height to minimum
2 - button width to manual (and moved to minimum)
3 - button width to auto
4 - set button height to max
5 - button/icon width is fixed and when you change name↔icon you get the broken display

If you don’t follow these steps the width for change between icons and names works correctly
