Todays new bugs and interim maintenance

[Thejollyone]

Can somebody just confirm the maintenance will be to repair not just the population bug but also the adventuring issues?

Killing leader camps does not take down the lesser camps as normal on FT advs
The towers do not fall on SftR
The pallisades do not fall on Bucaneer Roundup

Those are just 3 of the ones Ive heard about since last nites maintenance, and this needs sorting ASAP to continue normal play

the maintenance will be only for the population bug

no point in just fixing that - fix the whole lot while its down, the new bugs came last night, and the game is unplayable in its current state

- i played The Black Knights adv today and after filling quest - destroy 2 main castles - all other lesser camps stayed.. is it normal or bug like you say
- and after returning home from adv i got -10k XP..?!
thx

seems to be more widely spread than thought.

My point is that they all came after last night's maintenance, so narrowing the problem down should be easier than most bugs, as BB already know what they changed in the game overnight. Hopefully, when we are back up and running, all these new issues will no longer be with us.

EDIT: And I see from Ravel's post on another thread, this issue is also being addressed in this mini-maintenance :D

The maintenance should also fix the adventure bug encountered this morning.

Oh dear... I just came from work and expected to login and tend to my island... no go! What is this BB?

[Steve1077]

Do they just update the server without testing the update? I never understand how all these new bugs are not picked up and fixed before they go live, it's not like they're making new content all the time, I would have thought the updates would be done weeks before they go live so they can fully test them, I guess not

[stefanceltare]

Didn't you hear? The test server is not a test server anymore...

I think in the past we have been given 1 day prem for things like this, even when we were only down when the majority were asleep.... Im certainly not going to chase support for another day prem for this instance (but would be a lovely gesture ;) ) The point is we have likely already received more prem back in gifts than we have ever suffered loss for. No point in suffocating support with claims IMO on this occasion, and BB have also already said prem time will be extended.

no i dont see a need to post support as these things happen, was really just wondering, after all im sure im not alone, many will have used star for 1 day and they suffer to.

You're not alone..

ok, so I just lost 100 cav in sftr as interceptions are not happening so my cav just went and attacked a leader rather than being moved to a tower

[Elderien]

Seems, TSO got back to beta version...

I think that is related to buff production in Mayor's house - perhaps window closed before updated..
Work around - open up Mayor's house, Collections tab again.

Other people might have issues with that, but it is definitely not the cause of my issues with the population tool tip, because I haven't made anything in the Mayor's House for days now.

Lately, for me, it seems to be a crapshoot as to whether it will work or not. When it doesn't sometimes a refresh fixes it, other times not. Sometimes rebooting my browser fixes it, other times not. Sometimes changing to a different browser fixes it, other times not. Sometimes rebooting the computer fixes it, other times not.
But I have had issues with it not appearing now when using IE and Chrome on a laptop running windows 7 and with Chrome and Opera on a desktop running Vista, both of which have flash player kept up to date, so I cannot figure out what the root cause is for the life of me!

May also trigger by Bookbinder production..
