The Diseased rats improperly apply the raging feaver effect to nearby players who are not interacting with it.

The majority of illnesses carried by rodents require physical contact or a bite to be transmitted and this effect should not be applied to someone simply walking by unless the rat targets and attacks the player directly. additionally since the diseased rats do not attack players unprovoked their AI has no business targeting players with an effect without being in combat

additionally healing potions and or crystal way should remove this effect as it is not a magical curse but rather a mundane sickness

lastly as a minor effect caused by combat with a monster the duration of raging fever lasts far too long for a monster of such a low level as a general rule of MMO's no status debuff caused by a monster should last more than at most 2-3 minutes after the end of a combat encounter and those that do should have easily accessible means of counteracting it such as potions or spells.

My Kran can eat certain non-Kran food, such as fish, bread, and possibly other kinds of food without getting indigestion.

Since plenty of other non-Kran foods give indigestion, I’m sure this isn’t normal.

This is a collection of Combat System bugs

I tried attacking a kikiri with two ‘Dark Dagger’ and I got the following system messages

(20:29:33) >You’ve gained 1 practice points in Knives & Daggers.
(20:29:33) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:29:33) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:29:33) >You’ve gained 1 practice points in Knives & Daggers.
(20:29:33) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:29:33) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:30:37) >You’ve gained 1 practice points in Knives & Daggers.
(20:30:37) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:30:37) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:30:37) >You’ve gained 1 practice points in Knives & Daggers.
(20:30:37) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.
(20:30:37) >Your dark weapon drains 10 HP from Venalan.

So every attack I do with two Dark Daggers is doing two rounds of extra damage and not just one extra round of damage.

Once you’ve maxed your stats, currently there’s no more use for progression points/XP. It’s just an endless counter going up and up and up.

How about:

• adding PP prices to the money you have to pay in special attack quests? (”Sorry, but you don’t have enough experience to learn this, come back later and I’ll show you how it’s done.”)
• having to pay in PP more than in Tria for the temporary knowledge bonuses?
• consuming progression points if you craft something with a special modifier (and in turn only allowing you to do so if you have some to spare)?
• add more temporary buffs (for example for stats or more directly as bonus HP/MP, increased HP/MP regeneration) that are paid for only in PP or with much lower tria costs.

I am aware that it probably requires quite some additions to the quest scripting and other places and is by no means a trivial change, but I thought it may add to the medium- to long-term development deliberations. To me progression points feel like a loose end, now that they lost their purpose in skill training.

In the quest Lorytia Starhammer and the Clan reunion Lorytia mostly uses "ye" instead of "you". But the use is not consistent throughout the quest. You'd think that if she regularly says "ye" she'd not switch to "you" for a sentence or two in between, sometimes even switching back and forth within one sentence.

f.e.:
"That is very kind; I thank you. Here is the note: just tell him I sent you."

"Oh, I am sorry, you are still here… do you want to hear what happened?"

"I know ye worked very hard on your piece for the competition and you should have won. I take full responsibility for shortchanging you on the scores."

"He may have some means to get them prepared for you, but ye might make your journey faster if you have them on hand."

There might be more later in the quest, but I'm not done yet.

Upon completion of the without a way quests ( In my case Crystal Way ) govell sends me to Levrus log:

[NPC] Govell Mihdren says: This will prove the mastery you gained in the Crystal Way.
(06:14:52) [NPC] Govell Mihdren says: Make a good use of it, Resildren.
(06:14:55) [NPC] Govell Mihdren says: And take this.
(06:14:58) [NPC] Govell Mihdren hands you an amulet.
(06:15:00) [NPC] Govell Mihdren says: Bring it to Levrus, one final lesson awaits you there.

but Levrus will not accept it, to make sure I completed my leveling (200) and returned, and he will still not accept it?

I’ve talked to other masters of the other ways and this seems to be a global problem, is this just not implemented yet, or is it a bug?

The quest objective is to help a certain NPC find a missing object, that's what my char agreed to do. After finding the object and proceeding to final steps I suddenly receive a ready-made line "X listens to your story" and find my char spilling its friend and ally's whereabouts to X, with me having absolutely no means to prevent or stop it. Honest, it feels like being godmodded by the quest system and is awfully disappointing, to say the least. It also clashes with the general idea of quests being done ICly.

Dear Devs, please add a "not squealing" option, something like "I've just found it somewhere" and let the player deal with one of the main ingame alignments (Law) according to that player's RP. The way it is done now, it's not C&C, it's M&C, having to bear with consequences of the game mechanics, and somehow it doesn't feel right… at all.

PS Ver: 0.5.3

(Edited for clarity.)

Hi,
to make the interface less confusing, please let the chat window have the “Guild” and “Group” tabs only when the character is in a guild or group. Or at least make hiding these tabs an optional feature.

This would also make it possible to add an alliance chat tab to the chat window without bloating it for the people who are not in an alliance. see my FR #2688 for this.

Sometimes I would which i could sort the storage list in a different way. Would it be possible to add bi-directional sort options in the storage/buy window?

For an example.

In the Catalog of shields book, ‘Bronze Spike’ becomes un-greyed and therefor visible as craftable when blacksmith hits 15. but you also need many levels in shield making before you can actually make the item. If I push Blacksmith to 200 and leave shield making at 0, according to the book I can make every item in there, despite that clearly being wrong.

The skill checks being made on the crafting books need to look at primary and secondary and as many skills are needed to make an item to correctly mark it as something you can make.

When you change button height font does not scale so you can end up with buttons with font cut in half.

Button width can be changed if it is set to manual or auto, you should only be able to change it when on manual.

Font - display for the current font should be taller and wider to show the whole font name. The position of the drop down menu could be moved up and menu size increased to avoid the need to scroll. Ideally the font choices should also use the font they are named after to make it easier to chose.

Health and mana - when you hide the bars you end up with a big block of empty space. It should be set such that this ‘dead space’ is removed as you find when you play wanting to click on something behind the space and finding you cant.

Text size - when altering size and font it does not change in real time. The minimum size is stupidly small, and having to relog each time to find a size that works is very hard. The minimum size should be 6 or 8 point.

I found that when adjusting button height, the width did not auto scale until I click on the ‘auto scale’ button AFTER adjusting the height.

I also set ‘text spacing’ to its lowest value and found the gap between the text and button edge to vary in certain buttons. In some it seemed to be 0 but others much larger. But they all increased when I increased the spacing size.

At certain button heights the ‘auto button width’ does not work as the text is cut off at the left and right edges. ‘one click’ taller or smaller and the problem can stay or go. This is with text spacing to its lowest value, which I expect many will use to keep ‘dead space’ to a minimum.

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.

GMs should have the ability to add, edit, delete notes on players.

command line commands :
/note ‘playername’ ‘comments’ /note list
/note delete id

GM console interface :
-when you click add you get ‘enter player name’, and then comments
-GM can then read them, edit them, or delete the whole thing
-permission level required to edit/delete configurable

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.

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)

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

test case

test case

• I was playing my pan flute.
• I swapped the pan flute against my plat steel sabre.
• I stopped the playback.
• I fought.
• I wanted to reequip my pan flute, but it could not be moved, not even from one inventory slot to the other.

I suspect that there is no test for (music instruments/)items being in use when swapping them

  The player would define a starting state, a series of "qualifiers" controlling a custom menu of "actions" that may be taken on the object.
  Qualifiers could check attributes, skills, possession of an item, or internal counters.
  Each action could execute one or more commands, for example /shout, /say, or /tell to the person who acted on it, or update its description or internal counters.
  All descriptions and internal counters would be shared to all clients within range as well as persist.

List of all bugs regarding sound to be fixed for next release.

the command "/pet Petname, dismiss" stopped working in the last few days.

"/pet $number, dismiss" does not work either.

The following does work:

/target Petname
/pet dismiss

There should be a way for players in groups to share quests they are doing. So they could talk with others about them and do them together. All will get the quest complete when they complete the task given by the npc (and maybe a copy of the reward for each one): this could make quest allow players to socialize more.
The biggest problems in implementation could be the case in which quests might overlap, the fact players might want to chose the quest they want to share and the variations which could be in dialogs when talking with a group of people versus a single one.
The players will get the shared quests added automatically even if they didn’t have them provided they have the correct prerequisites

When an NPC wants more than one item, but you have the items in different slots (even containers, like when your inventory is full and you can’t easily make room for the full stack), the trade won’t complete, even if the total sum of all items traded is the right amount. It should not matter if you give an NPC a stack of 63 items or ten stacks of ten items plus one of three, or seven of nine( ), etc..

Edit: they also don’t get given the items when they’re in the right amount but in different stacks / sacks in the inventory. One gets “You have to give manually, because you got too many items” instead. /Edit

With trunk, equipped items whose requirements are not met at the moment are disabled (old bt #2618). There should be a visual indication of this in the inventory view. Quote:

—– Posted by ThomPhoenix at 3:45 PM on 12-02-2007 —– Yes, perhaps the art team can make a translucent PNG with a big red cross on it and this one can be overlayed on your equipped item’s icon. That would show that your item is not working. Perhaps something more subtle can be made too, although a red cross would be clear.

there aren’t any terms of service on the website and consistently the user doesn’t have to agree to them at any point.

this is a big issue in my opinion as the user isn’t strictly bound to such terms and therefore cannot be accordingly punished in case he’s causing really bad issues.

There are models where body parts don’t get translucent while sneaking.

One example: Klyros wings.

(Wait for more to be collected…)

The paragraphs ‘§’ on the walls of the guild house map “guildlaw” are mirrored. For years already (just always forgot to report it).

I noticed in a characters inventory that “The pastry Chef” book was not displayed as an icon, but was displayed as text “The Pastry Chef”.

It appears that the newest icons have not been loaded or are not reference correctly from MyPlane.

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

Redo quest/events implementation to send/receive, also remove XML.

Example found in all Alchemist items, example Alchemist Freezer

Error on console is:

Error in ><let> bindings<: Given a NULL iScriptableVar* for >RightItem<.

The scripts are run through : ApsCharacter::InvokeAttackScripts()

The first thing is to execute this script part:
   RightItem=Attacker:GetItem(0);
   QuaLevel=RightItem:Quality/50;

 In a similar case with GetItem(0) but outside of <let> we get MathStatement::Evaluate() with RightItem=nan , it works.

no task description

Crafting HA
combine 4 q300 medium steel plates with 1 q50 chain arms give worse quality then
combine 2 q300 large steel plates + 2 q300 medium steel plates with 1 q50 chain torso
there is the same amount of q300 ingerdients but its in one stack for arms and 2 stacks for torso
edit Quality 175 vs 227

I noted that previous bug report 4573, similar in nature, has been closed. I reached out to GMs and it was confirmed that once a broadsword has been furrowed into a blade then the only option is to then make it into a kit. The flow as of 04/04/2015 looks like stock>alpha>beta>delta>brittle>dull>rough>blade (gap) heated>super>red>stock.

If the expected results of working broadswords is to have them be a one time blade, then these extra steps (heated>super>red>stock) are confusing. If the expected results is that the broadsword should be able to be worked from stocks to blade to stocks then currently the step to make the (final) blade into a heated blade is missing.

Having to use the Working with Stock book simply to heat steel/ingots for forging makes for a silly amount of swapping back and forth between Working with Stock and Book of Blades. It’d be simple enough to add the steps for heating stock and ingots to the Book of Blades…

Weapon types that I’d find useful in RP and could be more-or-less stood in for with existing art, but aren’t statted/craftable:

• Rapiers/some sort of thin thrusting sword – this could use a longsword model for now until we get a proper rapier model in (I might make a low-fi rapier model if I get motivated enough to dust off Blender, even…)
• Spears (and perhaps other polearm forms) – these can use the quarterstaff model until a proper model is implemented for them

This is actually for version 0.6.5.

When I craft Small Battle Axes I find that all skill gains are in Blades, Blacksmithing, and Mace making. I feel that somehow the skill gains for Axe making have been replaced by Mace making. That makes it harder to build up axe skill to turn the kits into a finished axe.

Axe handles need changed to blades making

I just did this quest, and it turned out to basically be “Give Trasok 100 tria so he can explain what you should already know if you have the book.” It has no reward other than a few Crafting Association points, which is pretty much worthless. Could you guys either remove this quest or make it give some real rewards? Thanks…

According to Wanderer’s description, he wears robes

Banded Mail Armor stores in MA category, trains MA but the description reads HeavyArmor under the weight/size/quality. So can we get it changed to read MA please.

In Fishing Lessons for Fish, the quest dialog does not match the quest notes for that particular task. In one possible task the player is told to get 6 eels and 7 manta rays, but the quest notes say 7 eels and 6 manta rays. The player seemed to indicate that it was the notes that were wrong, but isn’t online for me to double-check.
