Legate of Mineta Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 Schwarzbart and Gladi; Thanks! We'll review these in 15. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted March 22, 2012 Report Share Posted March 22, 2012 I just have used the second time Favor on Prof. Sido as with the first time I now have 10 Relationship again but this time it Failed. When the Relationship would be still 10 then it would be fine but it also was set to 0 so no reward and -10 Relationship thas kind of bad. I suspect that I would have gained the same reward then in the first Favor and that this is the reason it failed but what I see as bug is that if the Favor fail the Relatioship still drops back to 0.

Legate of Mineta Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Schwarzbart; That's almost undoubtedly what happened: you got the same reward- unfortunately this behavior is an engine limitation in Year 1. We've recognized the issue, though, and Favor in Year 2 works a bit better about duplicate entries. Thanks for the report, though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rslain Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I just did some testing with absurd success bonuses, and I think that I might have run into an overflow issue (where getting too high a bonus overflows it down to a negative number). My test scenario was +109 bonus to success (i.e. +109 to every action/ability roll, obtained by stacking 6th finger casts with a certain pheme) I tried using Match Wits With the Emperor Sphinx (character has a base of 10 wit, +1 from a permanent ability) and failed. I also tried other various difficulty 10-20 rolls and failed them all as well. Perhaps this is related to the Chance of Success issues that I was seeing earlier in this thread? Interestingly, I did some testing with +27 to all rolls and had no issues with any skill tests, so it's definitely an issue with the higher numbers. Is there some sort of debug mode/mod that we can enable to track bonuses like Chance of Success or general bonuses to action/skill checks? It'd be really helpful for tracking down situation like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 I know the Porcupine Adventures are already set for a rework but I just found a bug there Familiar Adventure Porcupine 05 the Investiagtion apearently use the Char Skill because a roll vs 7 in Ins+Planing is blue but my Familiar have Planing 0 and Insight 4.

Legate of Mineta Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Dirk; In this case, it is probably related to the previous problem- what's happening, in some cases, is that you are resisting your own Chance of Success...with your Chance of Success! It will cleared up in the Patch with 15. In answer to your other question, in the production Client, no, there is no way to view CoS. Schwarzbart; Thanks! I'll note that for the review.

Rslain Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 This is a separate issue -I'm testing with a flat bonus to rolls, not a chance of success. In this case, I'm using the malfeasance pheme and stacking it to absurd numbers. My chance of success was at around 2% during the above test. Another minor issue is that these static bonuses do not change the colors that indicate your chance to succeed. I noticed that with Wit 12 and +1 to all actions from Planning, the Sphinx was blue even though I couldn't fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted March 23, 2012 Report Share Posted March 23, 2012 Dirk; Ah! I did not understand- that does sound like something new. If you could pm me a link to a RapidShare that has your save, I think the Team would like to look at it. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 oO just complet failed a Match Wits with the Emperor Sphinx but I have a total of 13 in this skill if my calculation is right! Base Skill 10 +1 from Emotion=11 Familiar have it at 4 so +2 again = 13. I made a backup save bevore and after the failure in case it is needed.

Legate of Mineta Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Schwarbart; This sounds correct, actually- you need to exceed the Difficulty (unless you have the Penetrate Effect.) You should be able to pass without any issues beginning at 14. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rslain Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 That sounds a bit odd. Skill checks turn green for me when my skill equals the target number. Green is 100% odds of success, correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 Dirk; Correct, barring any CoF. Bear in mind, though, that if the color-coding will be off if there are any automatically applied Effects- a side effect of how the engine calculates success/failure.

Schwarzbart Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 v 1.6.8 I used Explore (Academagia) 3 times and every use I got a location my char already have. Thought this was fixed at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 Schwarzbart; Hmmm- not sure about your Explore Level, but if you have exhausted all options available, I think it will begin to repeat. Actually, I'm struggling to recall if the unique behavior was modified in Year 1 or 2, to be honest. It may still be allowed to repeat in Year 1, I am not 100% sure.

Schwarzbart Posted June 23, 2012 Report Share Posted June 23, 2012 As it was in week 1 when I called explore and in the later calls (when I reloaded the same day) I actual got i.e. the Glamour Classroom or other class room's my char didn't know about its definitve not that I exhausted all options aviable.

Hmmm! I'll pass this along, thanks! I would suggest making the Chauranglaith Path take a skill level away from Leadership instead of taking 3 skill steps away. It might work better.

Schwarzbart Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Then the reward have to be changed to skill level also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
89157Z Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Then the reward have to be changed to skill level also. It grants seven skill steps, that's almost always going to be a skill level anyways... I'm not disagreeing with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 1.6.8.0 Rest not fill up Vitality to its max when Alive like a Sea Dog with its + 1 Fitness get activated trough this rest. There is something broken with the Skillmaximum for Skills, i.e Dialectic I get 11 in Sleuthing from "Sense of System" and have 2 other skills at 11 (there I increased the Skillmax to 11 thanks to Prof. Sido) and the moment I got the 3th skill of this 3 to 11 I got Question Reality even with my Dialectic still show Skill Maximum 10. The displayed Skillmaximum for Skills is handled corect because this only go up as soon the Char actual have 3 SS with Skillmax of 11. (Have this in History ^^) Btw. I think that Question Reality is complet useless because even if it gives a complet step to a SS you have no way to controll what SS is increased and when you get Dialectic to 11 there probably not many Skills that need 3 or more steps for a increase and for everything with just 1 or 2 step its simply a wast to spend 1 stress for 1 SS.

Legate of Mineta Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Schwarzbart; The first is a known issue, related to the way that Emotions are added. I think it's unlikely to be altered, at least in Year 1. In your example, you'll only gain Abilities if the actual Base Skill Value triggers the increase to Parent. Things like 'Sense of System' are Bonuses, and give Calculated Skill Values, but are not actually increases to the Base Skill. For the third, I'll pass that along.

Schwarzbart Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 So you say because I increased Famous Dilemmas as last of the 3 SS to 11 (it actual is Skillmax 11) I got the ability for Dialectic 11 even if one or 2 of the skill just get to 11 because of some bonus and not because the SS is actual 11?

Legate of Mineta Posted June 28, 2012 Report Share Posted June 28, 2012 Schwarzbart; If I understand, you are correct: in order to unlock the Parent Ability at 11, you need all 3 Skill Base Levels to be 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
