Character stuck (Bug?)
« Topic Start: March 14, 2016, 07:18:57 PM »
My character: Sharn 'The One Armed'

I think she is stuck on the ferry between Medina and Paisly. She has been on it for nearly 4 days. It says she has 1 hour to arrive, but it has said that since the moment she embarked on the ferry. No hours have accumulated, and her fatigue is slowly increasing (33 now i think). She cannot return because she has no hours in her pool.

Is it just me being impatient, or missing something? Can it be looked into please.
She is a brand new character, so the simple solution can be to delete her and start afresh, but that doesn't solve the original issue...if it is a bug.

Cheers.

Dont know if it was GM intervention or not, but she arrived this morning. All seems well.
Thanks.

I've made Vita aware of this thread.

Not sure he fixed something or it was intentional.

Thankyou,

If i recall, the travel time said something like 44 hours travel, but after 3 - 4 days I felt that something was wrong.
As said, looks ok now.

Then it's probably what Vita told me earlier today, travel time could have been right (44 hours). But if you report it's been saying '1 hour till arrival'.. That's something we might have to look in, 'cause that ain't correct.

Ok, this evening i hitched a ferry ride from Port Nebel to Mimer. Had full pool (16 hours) so it allowed me to board. I remember the travel time being 35 hours before I boarded.

Now boarded I have 0 hours in pool (which is expected?) but the travel time left is 1 hour (which is a minor buggy bit)

You are currently between Port Nebel (City, D'Hara) and Mimer (City, Astrum).
You should arrive there in about 1 hour.


I will countdown to see how long it takes me to arrive, to conclude if there is a bug on this part or not, as I thought I may have had previous.

Thanks. This is helpful research.

Small update;

Its been 18 hours (1 turn change) since boarding the ferry.  0 hours in pool, still says 1 hour to arrive.
Fatigue has risen from 30 to 45. Is this normal?

Another update:

25 hours (2 turn changes) since boarding the ferry. 0 hours in pool, still says 1 hour to arrive,
Fatigue risen from 30 to 52.

I now get this message because I am too fatigued, which is expected I guess.

You are tired and exhausted, too fatigued to be doing very much.

You can access the resting options and that is it, until you have recovered a little.


Problem is I cannot do anything (read messages) until I have rested. The message directs me to the resting options...But I cannot access the menu to rest because I am sailing(ferry)
Am I going to die of fatigue?  :o
Also, it has turned to Winter during my sail. I don't know if this will affect the length of my journey.

Here's what I have so far. I'm making a guess that the internal hour counter for the trip is ok, it is only the display "1 hr to arrive" that is broken and making it feel "stuck"


Golden Farrow ((rogue))
ferry, 656 miles, ca. 39 hours

You are now en route to Golden Farrow. Estimated time of arrival is 31 hours from now.

Reduced from 16 to 8 hrs, so that all matches


After turn,

You are currently between Port Raviel (City, D'Hara) and Golden Farrow (City, (rogue)).
You should arrive there in about 1 hour.
