Bug in skill levels after training
« on: October 24, 2008, 11:39:55 pm »
I've had a bug after I trained the blue way of magic with Levrus Dahren. I first clicked on "Buy Skill", and nothing really seems to happen, then on Buy skill level. Then, I had the bug. All the skill bars turned in large strips of red and green (as when you've finished to train a level) with some extra large strips of yellow in the middle (I did not think of taking a screenshot at that time unfortunately). Then I realized that, while I had bought one skill level in the blue way, the practical side will not progress, even after I casted a 100 times successfully a spell. Before I could actually report it to a GM inside the game, Planeshift crashed,
When I returned to the game, the strips looked like that: (this time I took lots of screenshots)

This is not what my skill levels used to be. I had lots of blue everywhere, now I don't. The skill level for the blue way is weird too. On top of this, in the second screenshot, you may see that I belong to several factions, all of them at rank 5. In my memory, I used to belong only to the blue way faction.
Is there any GM or someone who could fix all these problems so that I may continue playing the game without worrying for this ? For instance, if I could return to the skill levels I had yesterday before the bug happened (the bug happened yesterday 23 Oct, around 11pm GMT) and give me back my training points (23 if my memory is correct) that would be really great.

I am using Plansehift under linux, with an relatively old ATI 9000 mobility.

Let me know if you need any other information or if something is unclear.

I am not sure I understand the problem. THe screenshots all look as they should be. You have bought some blue way training (the green part) but not enough to finish theoretical trainin (there is a part yellow left). You have still one progress point, which shows as the amount of theoretical training you can still obtain indicated by the small blue bar (which for blue way starts after the green part). As long as there is yellow left, you cannot learn by practice (casting a spell). That will start when the yellow is gone, and slowly make the red part green.

Thanks Lanarel for showing interest in the problem. The screenshots are not fine. All the skill level show no blue, where I had a lot of blue. See also what I wrote before on the faction tab.

To summarize things again:

I had 23 practice points. I clicked first on buy skill. Then on buy skills level. Then all the skill bars turned into something wierd and Planeshift crashed. When I got back in game, I've lost all my training points. The remaining point you've seen on the screenshot is a point which I have obtained after all of that. Then I checked my skills and they looked as in the screenshots. No more blue, as if I had lost all current training, theoretical and practical knowledge in all skills. If you don't see the problem open your statistics tab and compare yours to mine, you will have some blue, I don't have any blue, for all skills. Ok, I guess in theory, it's possible not to have any blue, if you have just finished every skill level and stop there, for every skill. But this is not the case. And look also to the faction tab, it's not what it used to be.

Sorry, I've read again the post of Lanarel, and understood something which I did not before about the blue bars. So I guess apart from the crash, the rest could be fine. Just ignore the previous post and accept my apologies.
