Hey all!

We're in the process of collecting some information about individual reports of bugs you want to be fixed.

If you're experiencing any bug in the game like old annoying bugs or what you believe is a completely new one, please help us out by providing as much detailed information possible.

I will have to discuss this with the Mindark Dev-team.

Feature - Mining Finders - The tool does not remember the last picked resource for that specific tool
NOTE: This is used for having e.g. 2 different Mining Finders, one for a certain depth for finding minerals, one for a certain depth of finding enmatter resources.
I will bring this up for discussion with Mindark once again!

Feature - Space - Aggro is dropped of MS if no one is in the “exterior”, should be more realistic

fix the memory hole/sink so i can go to places like twin again

XP SP2 32-bit

stuk in Space gates agin floding dead in the Space

so no one can T in from ther what so ever

Make the game playable for more than 5 minutes before it crashes again.
Oh and just noticed the hitboxes are messed up....
Rollback of whole "fixing VU" would be nice

I tought support always forwards our bugreports to rhe reponsible team

Previously TP chip loading was only interrupted while loading, now it gets interrupted after its finished loading as well.

Fix the bugged view of Vain armor parts. Now it look like the thighs (M) ul are bugged in inventorry. Them are extremely stretched.
ty

*are the shins (M) longer black without textures since the new Avatar System too ? i think so.

I remembered I once had a thread for tracking bugs and voting on most annoying ones.

I dug it out, and to my surprise nearly all bugs from back then had been fixed.
Well, except the one on the top, which is still very annoying for me. (Wrong tool)

The old thread is here

EU freeze after a short while

On my girlfriends Ammis computer EU freeze after a short time of playing, I did all kinds of updates, fixes, didn't help. But played hers ava on my comp, whit out any problems. Support was send ofc, later yesterday evening she could play for a longer times, and support closed the case, but today again its same shit

Win XP 32-bit, SP3

Rapido

There is this thread already if you want: Entropia Universe 14.3 Bugs
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?252823-Entropia-Universe-14-3-Bugs


For me:
- CTD (major)
- Too smal hit boxes on creatures (medium)
- Walking back after exit a vehicle (minor)
- Helmet bug (cosmetic)

Thanks!

Switching between weapon and fap in combat lags, changing to fap works fine but switching back to weapon lags. Maybe because of attachments?

I run dual screens and I have to run EU in windowed mode on one screen. When I run EU in fullscreen , if I click on my other screen , to use skype /browse web (whatever) then EU dissapears on my other screen.When I click back on that screen EU pops back up again.

Running EU in windowed mode wouldnt be such a problem , but in this mode the brightness adjustments are unavailable and on a mothership everything is very dark (especially in the hanger)

Is it possible to either fix the dissapearing screen in full screen mode or allow brightness adjustments in windowed mode?

TY

Fix the disconnects
Fix stuck in space bug
Fix the SS, MS, CP et al being unavailable
Fix Cyclops Depths being unavailable

We will come up with additional bugs once we can play more than 15 minutes without crashing.

Also, while you're fixing all this, move all the poor bastards that are stuck in space so they can at least log in and do more than look at a black void!

there must be memory leak. EU freeze under such cases:

1. if you do rotating, easier to freze
2. if a lot of green dots there, easy to freeze
3. will freeze no matter what you do, in about 30 min gaming, at this momnet, 1.1+ GB memory is used

stuck in space, only 500+K memory is used, but login in nomal planet, at least 900+k memory is used, much bigg than the 500+K before this VU. I am runing 32 bit client on win xp

BTW, even got freezed after about 20-30 min just floating at space

i know you are new here and you seem to mean well so i will try to be gentle.

bug 1.

there is this bug where one writes a support case, it gets forwarded to the design team, and a list is not made of these individual reports to see what people want fixed, these are not then prioritised and dealt with instead someone has the bright idea to ask this again publicly via a vote which people will use as a test to see if they are being listened to.

bug 2.

constant crashes of the server or the 64 bit client and rubber-banding which spoil the immersion and on return when one notices one is in a different position with a differing ammo or probe count makes one doubt the safety and security of the platform and in some cases have lost the creature one has spent real money on killing.
this could be considered part of a larger bug where common sense is not used when updating software or systems, it is possible to test software before deploying, and possible to install/test hardware before taking existing systems offline so that downtime is minimised.

bug 3.

the secretly changing core game systems because we know that if we announce them there will be a uproar bug.
i call this the "its dynamic" or "short-sighted greed" bug, this one is critical and has caused many players to leave over the years, two of the "worst" examples i can recall from the last year:
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?245591-Significant-drop-in-success-rate
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?233895-answers-i-expect-from-the-mining-dev-notes

bug 4.

the long long list of bugs and "design changes" of existing clothing that still are not fixed, see this thread:
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?245586-Overview-of-Clothing-Texture-Bugs

bug 5.

changing the stats of existing items instead of fixing bugs bug:
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?252867-Adapting-the-item-to-the-bug-instead-of-fixing-the-bug-will-this-be-the-new-trend

bug 6.

the recurring bug bug (a bug in the versioning software bug?), for example the stuck in space after update bug:
https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/forums/showthread.php?238815-Reviving-in-Space-is-Bugged/

bug 7.
im not sure if this bug still exists because i have not participated in shared loot events recently due to this bug.
its two bugs in one really, shared loot events where the server cant handle the number of participants, taking the massive out of the MMO, spending a considerable sum shooting at a shared loot mob only to get nothing in return if one cant log back in before the creature is killed, i have personally witnessed quite a few people lose 100's of peds each to this bug (up to 700-800 a few times).

goodluck!

BTW: PMed and supporting cases filed, stuck in space for more than 10 hours now, when my avatat will be remove from the space?

Fix the hitbox bug asap

Fix lag issue while swapping guns or swapping from fap to gun

I would love a new list in the Client loader(highlights/support and so on) with the name of "Known Issues".

For an example a friend did one marcimex or mind reaver mission few days back and instead of getting the reward(think it was athletics), he got Club skills(not sure if it was known bug by MA or not?).
In that list MA could tell players about gameplay bugs/issues that is known.
With such a list players can in ex. choose another mission til that bug is fixed so he/she can get the wanted reward.

Btw, heard that "next target" is bugged too.

Aiming at creatures is harder since the boxes are smaller

MF graphics looks stupid now
Almost impossible to hunt 1 person.

Well for me :

Connection Lost which leads to rollback > losing mob I was shooting > lost ammo
Lag when switching chip>rifle
Walking backward by itself.

and fix my 20k ped lost in the last month

TP bug : when using teleporter, after chosing destination and executing, there is blurring animation/effect (like it used to be) and then for few seconds you are back in normal vision where you have been and only after that you tp to destination. If you move away from tp during this time (after blur, before tp), tp sequence is stopped without any message.

This is on 64bit client.


<removed>

When will the support centre be re-stationed?

/mod note/
Please address the Calypso dev's request in the OP.
Try to be clear and concise, but include as much detail as you can about exactly what you've observed.
If you think a screenie or timestamp/coordinates/general location (server) would help, include that too.
And if the bug happens to you and not to every other player, consider adding information about your OS, graphics card etc which might be useful in helping them track down the cause.
Rather than post a response to off-topic posts, which might tend to derail the thread, please just report to the mods and we'll take care of it.

Remember too, this is a request from the Calypso devs. Issues with other planets and their items should be reported to the appropriate PP's.

1. Clothes is bugged
2. Textures/Colors is bugged
3. AVATARS SHOULDERS is bugged when any tool is equipped. Avatars look/animation need working.
4. Some Armor look also broken.
