★ Queue rearrangement gets forgoten after closing the game [12503] [Archive]

I was building loads of recruits in my barracks, then a block went wrong and I lost some elites which I needed to rebuild urgently. I rearranged my barracks queue and shortly after logged out.

An hour or so later I log back in to find my barracks queue in total disarray, not in the order I had left it. Additionally one batch of elites in the middle of the queue only had the instant complete option - no option to cancel or reorder

Having spent the best part of 20m clicking the little arrows to get the priority things building first (man this interface needs a move to top and move to bottom button) I was pretty miffed to find it was a complete waste of time.

logged out, cleared cache and waited for 20m and the entire 9hr queue has completed! this gets weirder and weirder...

I get troubles with this bug from the very introduction of the rearrangement possibility - both for Provision House and Barracks. I get some tasks up and close the browser window, but when I reopen some couple of hours later I find the up-ed tasks at the end - as if I did nothing to get them faster.

But today a new "version"of the bug occured and surprised me even more badly. I was tricking the above-mentioned bug by waiting for the up-ed task to start /after the top one is over/ without closing the window in the browser. Well, today I saw a long task for producing settlers starting and even passing one part. Then I closed the window and reopened some half an hour later. What was my surprise to find the settlers task back on its final place in order - not only as if I didn't rearrange but even as if it didn't start!!

Please let the arrows for rearrangement be useful. :)

Twice I've rearranged my Prov house queue to ensure the required buffs were produced for the guild quest by the morning, and the queue has been un-rearranged overnight.

Hi,

I had a queue of gamekeeper snack in rarity prov house but I needed to make some double time buffs for the combat armory. So I put that one up in the queue. But every time I got back online it was back at the bottum of the queueu. Happened 2 times now.
I don't really mind, but has anyone else had this issue?

The queues are messed up again, a bit worse then before.

Id est the provision house, had buffs and materials in it, added the brew -quest related- slide it up to the second position. Log off, return an hour later. Brew at the end of the queue. This is old bug, the new part is that items in the queue can now be finished with gems. For the past 15 hours, 2nd, 3rd, last and/or penultimate items (in most combinations) could be finished for gems. (yes, the property of the first item in ph has passed to one or more items in the list, in varying numbers and position(s))

Attack order in a camp.
Sent 15 suicide attacks in a camp in short succession, my case VLT, had 7 militia deserters and lots of lbmen left; 7 fast generals with 2b each for the militia, allowed 20 flags, then 8 more (6 tavern, 2 fast) with 1r for the lbmen deserters. I knew from experience that it can put the order wrong if generals enter within 15 seconds in a camp, hence the 1min head start ... but the current situation is far worse then before, the 5th attacker, otherwise arriving 1 minute late, is picked wrong i.e. 1b

The whole game is about queues. Writing queues and heaps is 1st university year material.
Is it too hard to get a graduate that passed that course to write queues here? How about testing, anybody knowledgeable in computer science?

just had same bug on Traitors; a wave attack was preceded by the final attack when the gens were perfectly spaced and sent for this NOT to have happened

Yesterday I started "Wedding Invitation" Buff scenario. Unfortunately i already had 40 days of production in both prov house and rarity prov house. Not being in a rush to complete the buff quest i set upon the task of re-ordering production in the rarity to move the wedding cake up the list. After getting it up to less than 30 days, I decided to call it a night and logged off.

This morning the rarity prov house had re-ordered back to the original order with wedding cake at the bottom. Not to be put off, i again moved it back up the list to about 22 days, but then had to go out. when i came back this evening it was at the bottom of the list again :(

My hand hurts...... and SOLT is taking me much longer than it should. Is anyone else having issues with re-ordering in the rarity provision house, provision house, barracks, combat armoury, combat academy? They all have the same interface, and was wondering if it is the wedding cake (event tab) causing the issue or an issue with the interface.

I have the same issue with regular provision house and the barracks. If I re-order and then log off, when I play again the order is changed with the bumped up buff/troops back to the bottom of the list.

There's been some rollback issues lately - not connected to any specific, but sent out specialist, buffed productions, et c.. ie any changes done while server being a bit busy.

had this this morning I'd moved my purified water up the queue, took me a good 10 minutes to figure out why I had none this morning and that queue had re-ordered in the night.

This bug has been around a while and keeps reappearing.

See: Queue rearrangement gets forgoten after closing the game (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/30456-Queue-rearrangement-gets-forgoten-after-closing-the-game)

Also mentioned here, with another problem but adding the link for general continuity: messed up queues once again (http://forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/31424-messed-up-queues-once-again)

some time later; queues are still messed up, absolutely no improvement... didn't even close the game this time

last week changes: southern island storehouse changes footprint, about 50 places where it could stay are no longer available

zone becomes 'idle' when browser minimised or just looses synch (can happen on a whim); consequently one receives crashed zone message or - worse - 150 mail messages if someone buffs

I'd like to know the project manager so I can arrange recommendations for the next job.

Hello,

Currently I'm having problems with Magic ink, in rarity provision house.

I always have a few things being done at the Rarity Provision House and I queue a Magic Ink. Sometimes I need it asap, so I move it to the second position.

What I noticed is: if u logoff or disconnect while it didn't start it will go back to his original queue position (last or near the end of the queue).

Today I tried another thing, I moved it to the second position and waited it to start. I saw as it was completing and received the message saying it was ready. When I looked at my star menu it wasn't in there and interestingly it bugged. I didn't receive the item, it was moved to another position on queue and couldn't even move the queue position. Even the text is bugged when you mouseover it saying "next buff in 10 minutes".

It made me lost time producing an item I didn't receve, also it was a really necessary item for me and, last but not least, where is the item? I paid the price to make them but didn't receive it.

I msg this at the help tab and a lot of people are having the same problem, some people with "Golden Brew".

Merged.

Hi

I dont know its an one time or known bug, but i set producing 3x25 Employee of the month buff. A little later i tried to make 3 magic ink, and set the ink 2 times upper, below the first stack (in progress) employee buff. (Anyways maybe it would be nice a "next after the currently produced" button, especially for barracks :) ) I closed the game, when i came back later, the ink was the last in the producing order. I set it again, but changing back into the last order repeated when i logged in again.

Confirmed. I added some steak in the rarity house, wanted it sooner rather than later so moved it up, checked back later and it went to the bottom of the queue. I did it a few times just to make sure it wasn't me...

Is it just the rarity provision house?
(re: post above - merged where?)

Got the make 15 fishplatter quest, added it in the queue on my provision house and then used the arrows to let it be on the top. Went to sleep, and then I came online on the morning. The platters haven't been made yet, and now the two top items have gems and I can't even use the up arrow on the fishplatter to move it above the second item.

Afaik, this has been around forever. In order to change the provision house queue order, you must delete orders and replace them in the order you want, otherwise they revert to the original order they had before you sorted them when you log out.

Xibor

14.06.16, 21:48

Confirmed. This happens for both the provision house and rarity house. And from what I've noticed as each item is completed the one you moved is placed back at the bottom of the queue whether you log out or not.

So the only choice as indicated is to delete everything pending in the queue and then re-add them.

This was reported already a long while ago.
Thank you for your reports and I will let you know the moment we hear something.

Could you tell me what you were doing before you noticed the bug? We're trying to reproduce it but need more information. Thank you!

Hello, same bug occured here. I had several orders of swordsmen (25 stacks) . Added 1 order of mounted swordsmen(15), rearanged it to the top, logged out and back in ~1h later mounted swordsmen were back on the bottom but "instant complete" button was there for first and second swordsmen stack. Then it could be rearranged using other stacks' buttons. I'll update the post when the first stack is completed.

edit: First stack is done, now mounted swordsmen(15) are produced and the "instant complete" button is there for first (mounted swordsmen(15)) and the second (swordsmen (25)) stack. This is the same stack that had this button before. It's still there after relog/clear cache and all magic.

Maybe it's time to deal with the queue mechanism and "move to top" button at last? Please.

I noticed this bugs a few times now last few days (probably since the 15/11 update), new order of queue in RPH reverts to original order.

When I move up an order, it returns to bottom again after leaving game.

When I return to Rarity prov. the order moved down and shows that it

tried to activate, but failed to execute order.

Grilled steak, I tried to move up as number 2 order, but i ends last every time.

I find this a lot, though not always, with both Provision Houses. It is annoying as you wouldn't have made the move if you didn't need the moved item more urgently than the rest of the queue. I get round it by deleting all the lower items & re-entering below the new one.

This needs to be merged with another thread because it's been posted many times.

The fact that this issue is still persisting after so much time and (IIRC) multiple attempts at a fix is yet another reason why this re-ordering method should be scrapped and replaced by a more practical and useful system, such button to clear the queue and/or a method of sending items to the front of the queue.... for all of this type of building: Barracks, Academy, Armoury, as well as the PHs.
