RESOLVED [YLD-32158] Logged in... and lost all progress including ship
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
I logged in ...and found myself sitting on the top of my ship somewhere "up in the air" with a message 'i am freezing". ...so i pressed w to stand up and "poof" ship disappeared and i was on the shoreline on the island i had been on, ... and no ship. nothing ! So i pressed Q to summons ship ... option was greyed out so wonderful! Lost all progress .... lost the ship .... and all the stuff i collected through exploration ..... and rapidly losing the remainder of my interest in this game. tried re logging ... same result . end up on the shore with just my inventory. tried everything .... ie relogging ... no go. logs attached but i don't hold any hope of that achieving anything. Am i angry? what do you think? output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt -
All but one of the traders on my sharegame disappeared .... are there union rules regarding NPC holidays? ..or do they have a use by date? maybe they got bored and wandered off.. or ... as they say in Oz ... "a dingo ate my traders.. " anyone else encounter this 'oddity" or is it another Ylands feature? ? output_log_clean.txt output_log.txt

RESOLVED [YLD-16314] boat gets stuck ..reversing will not help ...
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
When a boat hits a shoal it gets really stuck! reversing will not help, and when you dig it out ...even though there's nothing in contact with the hull, it must still be caught in the collision field because the boat will not move. The boat will move like its free, ie bob up and down in the waves ..but refuses to move. We had to use another bat to help push a stuck boat free,...and when it was finally moved , the area underneath it had been really dug out deep, but it still wouldn't move. No log file taken, this is an easy to reproduce bug / thing / whatever -
RESOLVED [YLD-13447] MP : bodyless avatar and missing water after releasing ship helm
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
Several times when releasing ship helm ... the screen goes olive green and all you see is a bald head... after a few clicks with escape or another action...you return ..and sometimes the water surrounding you disappears. usually it comes back after a movement around ..but today it did not... screenshots and logs attached output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt -
While using the cube on admin duties ie cleaning up etc, the cube sometimes "fails" ... already we have the hearts go to red...also its possible to drown and recently near a predator there was the warning music and i started to lose health. This warning has happened twice today ... Log files attached output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

My kiln and forge keep disappearing as i try to interact with them. They reappear after a rejoin. Its frustrating when you load a workstation, and as you feed it wood it disappears. You come back after a rejoin and its there, so you light it.... then it disappears again, so you have to rejoin to see it and get your crafted items out. The items do not appear in inventory when you open a chest to put the freshly crafted items inside. You have to close the chest, open and close inventory, then open the chest and then you can move them inside the chest. Its an intermittent bug. Then there's some items in your inventory that refuse to move to the chest / container ..the number 'might" increase in the container slot, but the item shows as still in inventory, and soon you get the "inventory full" message although there's plenty of empty slots. And it can happen in reverse ..but if you break the container the "stuck" item falls on the ground. Log files are attached for you to wonder at and wave incense laden candles over while chanting the magic mantra "sdnalY" and hopping on one foot facing a full moon... output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt

RESOLVED [YLD-9569] invisible hand held weapons/items in caves
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
Exploring caves with weapons ready .. so you stop and light a campfire as a guidance beacon .. then re arm ...and the weapon is invisible! Others see it but you don't...and it then behaves the same for everything you take from inventory can hold! ...and it persists after leaving the cave ...a rejoin purges it. but hard to tell when attacked by a mutant alpha in a cave if you are holding a sword...or a piece of roasted meat! Others can see what you are holding .. but you cannot! screenshot attached ..i caught a fish ...and noooo ------------- its not a fisherman's' exaggeration of the size of the one that got away, but i am supposedly holding a fish! I had just returned from cave exploring and the invisible things in hand occurred and persisted ----..even after sailing home and steering a ship. would be fun if everything turned to gold instead - like King Midas Logs attached ... and they are visible edited to add.. even though item is invisible in hand , it still functions as a weapon..tool ...food etc output_log.txt output_log_clean.txt -
Ok lost a fight with a pack of wolves...after respawn tried to locate my ship loaded with weapons etc...and found parts of the yland missing... the water is missing in some places..and the terrain in other... log file attached. also screenshots of 'what i saw" .... output_log.txt

RESOLVED animals unresponsive... dead areas on island..
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
I have come across an area on my Yland where the animals seem to freeze...totally unresponsive. Horses, boars, rabbits ...all just stand there unresponsive. I was harvesting sand for glass and after digging around about 6 rabbits, and then encountered 5 boars...just standing there... not sure whats going on there...am i not interesting enough for them? -
RESOLVED [YLD-6846] [YLD-7094] sharks and porous materials
kimbuck posted a question in Bugs & Technical Issues
In order to stop myself becoming the victim of floating sharks jumping onto the helm of my ship, i built a cage/enclosure around the helm of my ship. However the sharks seem to become stuck in the flooring, ..or passing part way through the walls. or leaping onto the deck and getting stuck on the mast. If you kill the shark , it then rolls onto its back and becomes a weight that de-stabilizes your ship. The shark attacks seem to occur after you release the helm controls to either view the map or eat. several times i have moved the camera view back to see a shark tale sticking out of the stern of my ship ...and then see the sharks head emerging through the floorboards. This seems to be a materials porosity issue as the building i constructed will also "leak during" a rain storm, even though the roof has decorated stone panels/marble panels lining it . -

I will also help new people ....as quite a few here will testify, but remain cautious. If you are in the game and come across honey chicken.... well thats me and i will help , and am friendly but warning i do not tolerate fools, once bitten twice shy As i said n a previous posts ...look for discord groups ...ask around in them and soon you will find out who to trust and who you avoid
-
join discord groups ...you will soon find the names of who to trust and who not to

sadly, this happens so often that multiplayer games are dangerous...and i immediately kick from my region any name i do not recognize before they can move! kick first! ..its unfriendly, but then 99% of unknowns are coming to plunder and destroy Theres also a group of them well known to discord users ... their only aim is to use pvp wherever possible and wreck others experience in the game Multiplayer is hardly worth it... unless you get a group of friends you know and trust and can join in at the same time .... thats difficult when in certain time zones.

RESOLVED Boat floating in air...teleported to another island
kimbuck replied to Joyleaf's question in Bugs & Technical Issues
If you want adventure, Ylands can provide it All those screenshots seem almost identical to my experience... same island view ... maybe a map issue? I found that if you log out with your ship offshore and in deeper water its less likely to happen ..... when it happened to me i was in deep water but adjacent to steep shoreline..i surmised that maybe the ship co-ordinates "drifted" over land when logged out and logging in... since i been careful to moor further offshore it has not happened again So a tip ... dont go offline with your ship moored in an inlet with shallow water either side. -
RESOLVED Exploration - Lost Ship- Now stuck
kimbuck replied to Deadeye_Rob's question in Bugs & Technical Issues
its happened to me twice before and it seems like an old bug i reported some time ago ..i got tossed out of ship when logging in ... and we went different directions. Having to re start from scratch is one of the reasons i rarely play Ylands now ,,, i have been back since the update, but if this is still happening ... well... ????? -

RESOLVED [YLD-32158] Logged in... and lost all progress including ship
kimbuck replied to kimbuck's question in Bugs & Technical Issues
I see in discord chat that another player lost their ship in identical circumstances ...and same experience., ie ship went skywards tossing them out then flew off into the never - never So .. do not moor your ship in an inlet between cliffs or land and then log out with your avatar inside. -
RESOLVED Lost my boat / Is there a way to load an older save file??
kimbuck replied to ktzo's question in Bugs & Technical Issues
@ktzo ...if in a mp game and you see Honeychicken blundering around ...or the asian biome BaconHam ... ..drop in and we can comiserate together. ? I took a shopping break .... got some neat sales specials and shoe shopping therapy works wonders. I am making a back up base on an pvte island to store extra stuff.... in case the ship goes bye-bye again -
How to bring back alpha players in 6 changes.
kimbuck replied to NoNoNumGum's question in Suggestions & Feedback
Players want what they want...and complain if they do not get it. The issue is not all players want the same and the Devs have to add and subtract to keep everyone happy, But as they say, a camel is a horse designed by a committee, and as players scream for Boss monsters, flying things, more combat, less combat, whatever etc we get an uglier camel! But Camels are useful in the proper environment ... .. they no good in the arctic or tropics....... ( and harder to like than horses...) So perhaps the players should stop pestering the devs to add things that will make Ylands the same as all the other games of this genre, and let them follow their roadmap and get what's here working properly first To be honest ...if the games changes to require fighting monsters and Boss monsters to proceed... then its just like the plethora of other teen/anime based kill everything games ... and people like me wont be bothered. To the devs... you cannot please everyone all the time. Look at the original game and its initial success...and work from there. -
