UI Release: Bug/Crash Report Thread Part 2

Bug Report
  • Title: Contacts don't activate cursor
  • Date Found: 03/02/2024
Description:
  • Expected: Opening a window activate the cursor
  • Actual: The Contacts windo doesn't activate the cursor
Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Hide the cursor
  2. Open the Contacts by a mapped key
  3. The cursor is not shown, so when moving the mouse to activate a Contact, the avatar moves
Maybe an option "Open Window Activate Cursor" could be added, applicable on all windows.
 
Bug Report
  • Title: Vehicule bar is hidden
  • Date Found: Long time ago
Description:
  • Expected: The Vehicule bar stores his positionn and opens where it should be
  • Actual: The Vehicule bar always open behind my Radar
Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Have your radar on the right bottom part of the screen
  2. Resize your radar so that you can see the dots
  3. Spawn a vehicule
  4. The vehicule bar is hidden behind the radar, and if you move it, next time it'll reopen hidden
 
Still only once, you have to click for each swing at the tree

bit shocked that that wasn't tested lol
Why expend funds on testing when the players are so good at it? ,-)
 
I reported this during the first day after new UI and were other reports too and it's still not fixed...
TBF... if you look at the list of bugs vs what was fixed. It was a fairly small fraction. It could be they are splitting only a small proportion of time from other dutys for this but TBH I'm grateful they are diverting any resource to it. I don't think I've seen them work this quickly to fix any post deployment bugs since the PhysX introduction.
 
Bug Report
  • Title: Some windows can't be moved
  • Date Found: 03/02/2024
Description:
  • Expected: Dragging a windo moves it
  • Actual: The radar, and the Team windows can't be moved
Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Make or join a team
  2. Adjust the position of the window -> impossible
  3. You need to enter Edit mode, move the window, then leave the Edit mode
IMHO, all windows and Bars should be moveable, not only the Chat
Radar can be moved by going into actions and clicking edit ui. Then you can reposition and resize it.
 
  • Nameplates should now show the Society correctly.

I still can't see it, I have tried changing the graphics settings, screen resolution, resetting the UI but there are no positive changes.
Sometimes it is visible and seconds later it disappears again.

Just a note to MA this isn't universal... I've defo seen them but have to admit haven't checked over time....
 
When renaming a friend in friends list; it does not auto populate the name. It is blank and you have to manually put in all characters.

After the name is changed; the friend gets relocated in its alphabetical order on list. The friend in focus becomes the next name on the list where the renamed friend was previously.

And when chatting in private conversation :
  • The default full name is set in the tab, instead of the renamed name.
  • The tab is small, thus truncateing any name, when there is more room to display it. Maybe use old mechanism : 1 tab chat = 100% of window size, 2 chats 50%, etc instead of the hardcoded small size ? (Please remember that your users want to have an easy practical interface, not a beautiful minimalist one. :))
 
perhaps not a bug, but why hide the account balance from the dashboard by default?
isn't this the most important stat in an RCE game?

Bug Report
Title: Pub Dubliner Monria DSEQ9
Date Found: 03.03.2024
Expected:I expected to drink beer, scream the drunken sailor song at the top of my lungs, and dance riverdance with red-haired beauties.
Actual:I'm stuck to a chair in a pub and can't move except to tap my feet to the song.
Only restarting the game helps.

PS Question closed, I needed to press the F key.

Probably for privacy in sharing screenshots at a guess

A request from the previous round and great that they picked it up. It didn't matter before streaming was a thing but now not everybody wants to show off their money.
 
You can turn it back on in options.

He meant why hide by default ? I agree with him too . If you streaming you have a option to turn off but why disable it for everyone by default.
 
why not? if you want it, activate it.

turn on in options person who just registered today in 2016
 
It is only one keystroke to seeing your balance: "i"

The original suggestion would have made it an option to either show or hide it in both places at the same time, otherwise opening inventory on stream defeats the purpose again.

So the option was implemented for streamers - makes sense. Reinforces the point of NOT hiding it by default, streamer population has to be smaller than non streamers I recon even if they are more connected.

  • Title: Timer box for Cyrene Imperium Snow Base is not large enough and doesn't render right
  • Date Found: 03/04/2024
Description:
  • Expected: When in the Imperium Snow Base the timer box should display the time remaining for the instance.

[This is a repost of: https://www.planetcalypsoforum.com/...ash-report-thread.298588/page-10#post-3932930 which can no longer be edited]

Have added a screenshot though of what you used to be able to do screenshot wise, but now CANNOT. 10PED to the first one who can reproduce the screenshot today with out using a friend or (cough) 2nd account.

Bug Report
  • Title: Avatar head doesn't retain last position when using rotation camera or photo mode
  • Date Found: After Control UI update ages ago
Description:
  • Expected: For example, when turning avatar's head down and a bit to the right and then rotating the camera to view the avatar from the front, the avatars head will stay pointing in the direction it was pointing before use of the rotation camera.
  • Actual: As soon as the rotation or pose camera is used, avatar's head snaps back to looking ahead and dead straight. Makes it impossible to take the kind of screen shots or views we used to be able to prior to control UI update as avatar can never be viewed from the front looking down, or to the right a bit or, similar.
Steps to Reproduce:
  1. Go to third person mode
  2. move/position avatar for example looking at something up and to the right
  3. use the rotation cam to view the avatar from the front, observe avatar is no longer looking up and to the right but instead has moved head to looking straight ahead and level
Screenshot: "Something just touched my leg!" - impossible to reproduce this today :'(
