Visiting Bug

[RowlandKyle]

Don't really know how else to call it. First I noticed it on the test server; but then I also noticed on this one. Bug is a bit like this. While you are scouting a friend, the messages that he is getting; Troop Training finished messages / Buff messages (Don't know if the Buffing was done by a friend of the player I am scouting or the player him/herself, or if this behavior occurs with other interface messages that you receive upon deposit depletion and geo finding/Scout messages), I also get them.

And it's something like "You've finished training troops..." (while I obviously wasn't even training any) or "You've buffed a friend's building....". I'm not supposed to be receiving the messages; that I'm pretty certain.

If this had been brought to your attention prior to this topic (pretty sure it has...well..99% sure. lol), or if this is not an issue at all, please ignore/lock/delete the topic and move on!

I noticed this yesterday as well. As soon as I visited a guild member, I recieved a dozen notification about troops training complete / buffs complete etc
None of the notification were actually happening.

I only had this once, so maybe it was a hiccup?

This happens frequently, if Troops are trained, buffs finished, or Lots sold the notification pops for visitors and lag (or something) takes hold at times resulting in a stack of notifications all at once. Multiple-player Adventures do something similar when other people's Generals are active.

It might be the game getting confused and sending your friends notifications to you because your visiting the island?

Wasn't the case with me. It wasn't a series of notifications; just the one on two separate instances on two different servers.

That's not terribly clear is it. I'll rephrase:

It's not all that uncommon to see the other person's notifications when visiting their Island, it seems similar to what happens on Multiple-player Advs when another player's General transfers or attacks and the pop-up insists *your* General is active.

There have also been a few times I've stopped by a friend's Island and been hit with a small stack of their notifications all at once, this seems more like lag.

We are having a similar problem just trying to visit another guildie to buff them, just gets stuck on "loading map" and you have to refresh to play. Is anyone else having this problem?

[Torppapa]

Me too
