Metis Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Just starting a topic to list whatever bugs I might find, which may or may not be related to DLC 16 and which I may or may not actually find. To start with: -Family: Sports is bugged and does not start the PC with the maximum vitality the PC will have from the trait's own +1 Fitness. -Station: Well-to-Do should not be allowed to roll +2 Gates Methods, of all things, on the +2 to 3 random skills roll. -Deed: A Singer's Gift does not properly capitalize "By selecting this background". -History: Descendent from Heroes has the same issue. -Apprenticeship: The Pie Kitchen as well. -Typo during A Day In Incantation - Sleeping In Class - : "...with her jar dropped...". Incidentally, that typo exists in the version I send in, so you can blame me for that one. -Typo during A Day In Incantation - The Slippery Grade: "...re-freeze the water your standing on...". Again, that typo is my fault. -CE: Signum Viridis IIII (which, BTW, should be IV) claims to "set your command of the Negation Parent Skill at 7.", but it instead appears to increase it by 7. My character now (temporarily) has 18 Negation. -Typo in A Walk Along the Lake - The Crypt of Broken Ivory is noted as unusual since mausoleums are generally not build underground. Incidentally, I think I intended for the mausoleum to have originally been constructed aboveground, only to later either sink or be buried. What calls it a crypt is an old engraving that existed before the building sank/was buried, so it wouldn't have been underground at that point. That might be misremembering though because that's one adventure that wasn't written recently. -Said crypt is also later called a Palace, and later still a Mausoleum. I am confused as to what that place is . Will rapport more as I manage to get the stars to align and actually roll stuff in my favour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I just started a character with 3 fitness and she had 6 vitality, are you sure you didn't use a trait that reduces it? The other bugs have been there all along I think, the game doesn't distinguish between skills like that, if it did I'd have preferred mastery/gates completely removed from random skill gains. It's like with how Aveline sometimes defames her own college because they use generic tables to draw from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Omen: Shattered Mirrors Family: Sports History: Artisans of Skill Station: Well-to-Do Prodigy: Center of Attention Prodigy: Social Prodigy: Spiritual Apprentice: Spy Tutoring: Grifter Familiar Bond: Exotic Is what I started with, and none of the descriptions mention having to start with -2 vitality, at least that I could see.

Schwarzbart Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Dreamwaver he is not talking about the max you have but the long known bug that you start with 2 Vitality no mater your Fitness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 What Schwarzbart said, 2 Fitness started a character with 2/4 Vitality. Guess that one's also known. I'm still before the point where I start to adventure like mad, though. That doesn't happen until after the mid-terms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I've never started with lower than max vitality, when making a character with 2 or 3 fitness and nothing else she has full life. That's a common bug? Edit: Just made a character with 2 fitness + the trait Family: Sports and she started with 4/6 vitality so I guess it's a bug with the trait itself. I just never picked a fitness trait before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Good job testing that, I didn't think it'd be a problem with the trait itself. I'll update the OP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Metis & Dream; As Schwarzbart noted, the permutations of the issue are known- unfortunately, I don't think they will be fixed in Y1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamweaver Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 Huh, I would have thought it to be a simple bug. Well I suppose it's a very minor issue anyhow. If one needs an explanation a sports injury sounds plausible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metis Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 I think the Legate was talking about Station: Well-to-Do rolling +2 Gates Methods. I think the Family: Sports thing can be fixed by having the background also hand out +2 Vitality, if that's necessary. That said, I do like the "sports injury" explanation.

Schwarzbart Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 He was talking about the Family : Sports issue but Random Skill also can't be changed as Random skill can be any in the game available Subskill no mater if legal or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freespace2dotcom Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 On the adventure 'an outing' the step named 'wrongfully accused' the observation investigation is blank. I failed it most certainly so maybe the success text is there and maybe it isn't. GREAT STORY BY THE WAY!! I'm going to ask a lot of questions on this one adventure later, once I'm no longer at risk of a heart attack from excitedness at the implications! be warned, legate. edit, also, I saved it in case you need it, but apparently despite having a stress max of 8 my char has 9 stress and is ok. Edit, the adventure 'early morning chill' seems to have duplicated itself after I failed the second step. I now have access to the first and second steps separately. edit: "It's not like you meant to hurt that hat" also somehow duplicated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Emperor Sphinx Adventure 01 I'm unsure if it is intended that the Glamour Spells exit is available without the Investigation as the fire escape is discovered in the investiagtion?

Metis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Funny thing is that I'm having trouble testing the new adventures because, other than A Day In Incantation, I don't recognise any of them that weren't there before already. And to further go with what Free noticed, I've had a curious incident where Search the Abandoned Warehouse apparently went back to One More Meeting with Oan. Although that could have been me messing up with save/loading. I do that allot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svinik Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Funny thing is that I'm having trouble testing the new adventures because, other than A Day In Incantation, I don't recognise any of them that weren't there before already. Quite a few of the old adventures are on the wiki, as is Mikka's list of adventures so one way of identifying if an adventure is new is to have the wiki open while you play, that way of course you can also add the new adventures to the wiki - I accept that you would however need 2 computers to do this easily.

Metis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 ...Duh. Doesn't really make it that much easier given how...many adventures are open to me at this point, though. And why a second computer? I find that just hitting the windows key and tabbing out of the game works very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svinik Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 ...Duh. Doesn't really make it that much easier given how...many adventures are open to me at this point, though. And why a second computer? I find that just hitting the windows key and tabbing out of the game works very well. The new adventures seem to have fairly low access as I got domething of a swarm too. On the second computer point, I find tabbing in and out an issue - possibly early onset of senility - I like to have the wiki, etc open while I play so that I can readily look things up, spam legate with typo's, etc while looking at the game item in question.

Metis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Personally I'd just like a list of the new adventures. Call me lazy, but that way I don't have to look at a giant list of adventures available to me and compare it with a bigger list of all adventures in the game since DLC 15. I managed to list Synchronicity and it's subskills, surely a list of new adventures can be composed by someone that's more familiar with the adventures that have existed for much longer than 2 days?

Dreamweaver Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Heh, I like to play Academagia on a virtual machine, that way it works a bit like running a game in windowed mode and since the game requires almost no effort to run I can run two games or Academagia and a web browser on the same computer.

Mikka Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 If people post the new adventures they find in the thread I have in the... Spoiler Room, I think it is?... I'll gladly add them to the main post as well as what we can figure out of their requirements and a standard description. But that can't be done until people actually find adventures and start posting them by their name. Personally, I'm not even going to start to play till tomorrow, so I can't get started on that.

Metis Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Unfortunately the best advise I have to give is that perhaps you can look at the list of recent changes made to the wiki - someone's made a start of updating the wiki with the new adventures, you should be able to at least get names from them.

Legate of Mineta Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Thanks for the issues, Freespace, Metis and Schwarzbart! We'll look at these in 17. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 13, 2014 Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Mad Emperor's Ghost 08 has a selector (probably a investigation) without text! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legate of Mineta Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Schwarzbart; Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schwarzbart Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Ups forgot to add, that this investigation in "Emperor's Ghost 08" also don't have the failure / success text I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
