Thanks! Wrist Flick was corrected in Patch 5 (or, so I believe!) If you do recall the name of the Spell, we'd like to review it in DLC 2.

 

Laclongguan;

 

Can you clarify? The letter appears for me.

 

Thanks!

[laclongquan]

Aranaz and Govina, two tries.

 

At the start of the game when you are in your room and there's an option of choosing to read the letter or not, choose to read. A small message about get comfy with your familiar (no option), press the button to get to the next. Bang! We are now at calendar to set schedule.

 

Technical spec: I extract the CP5+DLC1 to a folder then copypasta the content into academagia game folder. It ask something about overwrite the mods folder (naturally) I press Yes. Then I start the game. In the mod it appear something about Mallen Field and that content mod only (no content patch 1). Choose to create character normally.

Got it. We will investigate, and thanks!

Random Event Familiar 15:

 

After failing to use Conversation and then Revision, student is told, "...by the time you track down (?) and convince him to...."

[Legate of Mineta]

Mumbles;

 

Thank you for reporting this- we'll look at it in DLC 2.

[Schwarzbart]

Just did Help at the Imperial Rangers for 3 time Slots at start my Vit was damaged down to 4 (mostly from Train at Schoh...) but after the Day was processed I still haved 4 Vit even though in the Day Report it sayed that my Vitality was decreased!

I pack both saves (bevore and after the processing) in a rar file so if the team whant it I can upload it.

[Legate of Mineta]

Schwarzbart;

 

Thanks- we won't need the save. It appears that there is an inheritance problem here. We'll see if we can close this in Patch 7.

I found it again! It turns out it wasn't a spell, it was a location ability - the Chauranglaith Cave.

[Legate of Mineta]

Bip;

 

Ah, in this case it is working as intended. You trade real Leadership for temporary Increases to Dialectic Sub-Skills and to help you Question things better.

 

Thanks!

Random Event Hidden Room 4

 

After saying "to the student who needs the luck," you have, "{NEED TO ADD ITEM Jade Necklace}" on the next page.

[Legate of Mineta]

Mumbles;

 

Thanks! That one was reported by another Academagian, and will be closed in DLC 2.

[Mikka]

Visit the Spirits (at the Cold Room) can fail, and there's no note of what roll it requires. Having that in the description would be awesome.

[Legate of Mineta]

Mikka;

 

There is no Roll, actually- the reason for the failure lies almost certainly in some of the Effects in the Reference Table, which are not yet described in failure Reporting.

 

I'll test it to be sure, though.

 

Thanks!

Grand Forge: Personal Station

 

appears to have unlisted effect -- the bonus to Enchant and Forge subskills seems to work as advertised, but the parent skills also get large bonus by the looks of it. Here's numbers my character got while in location:

 

Enchant: 12, with subskills of 5, 12, 11, 9 (numbers are with Station bonus added)

Forge: 18, with subskills of 5, 6, 9, 5, 4 ... my Forge skill without buffs is 1 so well, that was quite a "huh" to see. Though i suppose it does make the final Finesse/Forge roll vs. 24 for "Accept Commision" ability somewhat easier

 

additionaly, this makes me wonder if Sheary's adventure isn't bugged -- the part "Turn Sheary into a smooth, bad boy" has Jeweler skill as one of the options, but even with Jeweler skill at 9 it still shows coded purple?

[Legate of Mineta]

jc315;

 

Interesting- we'll review that Ability. As to Sheary, the Difficulties in Adventures can be extreme: over 20 for some Student Adventures!

 

Thanks!

As to Sheary, the Difficulties in Adventures can be extreme: over 20 for some Student Adventures!

Ahh, i see. It just got me wonder because Character Study option provided in that stage turns green with skill at 10, and description of failed Jeweler test talks about failing to persuade Sheary into getting his ear pierced... so started to think maybe it checked different skill than it said it did.

[nightguard]

The ability The Imperial Reserve (from the location of the same name) is supposed to expand a random Zoology subskill by one step, and also reduce Stress by one. It looks like a negative was missed, as it is increasing stress by one instead of reducing.

[Legate of Mineta]

nightguard;

 

You are correct, thank you! This will be dealt with in DLC 2.

[Fletchin]

How high is the Passion check on Pamela's Studying for the Finals? I currently have 10 charm and 14 passion and it's still showing purple.

[Burnheart]

I'm not sure if its a bug or not but some times when using the incantation collage that adds one to every incantation sub skill i have been repremarded for trespassing even thought i payed all 900 hundred money, what ever its called, i was using it every day and all day on weekends if that has anything to do with it.

[Legate of Mineta]

Burnheart;

 

It's possible to still be Reprimanded for going to a Location that you have Visitation Right to, if you have another source of Chance of Discovery. This is because Rights zero out your Discovery Chance as given by the Location, but not from any other source.

 

Fletchin;

 

That Difficulty is a 24.

[Jazerus]

I've been playing some hours on this game , and I've run into some little troubles.

 

Beside those already mentioned, here are a few more :

 

• Typo : "Merit Prize XIIII" should be "Merit Prize XIV"
  
• Some "Merit Prize" do not appear (XVIII, XX, but there are some more)
  
• Some places revealed by explore and that are related to an action, don't appear in "choose action" or "use ability"
  

 

And just a question : what is the use of books one's has heard of ?

 

Historically, Roman numerals did not have the strict grouping rules we tend to associate with them today. XIIII would have been perfectly valid to a Roman, if slightly wasteful of space compared to XIV.

 

So not only was it useful for sorting, it works out in real life detail as well.

[Legate of Mineta]

Jazerus;

 

Did not know that! How interesting.

[Schwarzbart]

Was there a Change with Cleanse and Remake with Patch 8? because I just continued one of my Patch 7b game with Patch 8 and all I curent manage when succesing is the Charm Bonus and the Negative Effect from this Spell!

[Legate of Mineta]

Schwarzbart;

 

No- no change was made to Cleanse and Remake (that would be a content change.)

 

I've just looked at the issue, and I believe I know what the problem is. We'll have to issue a hotfix.

 

Thanks for pointing this out!
