Buildings being put to sleep by collectible hunts

When a friend clicks on a collectible to highlight it on your island, it sometimes puts a nearby building "to sleep".

A 24 hour buff starts on it where the building has no production.

Very weird... and very annoying

I just refreshed to see if it would clear the buff/bug

The buff is now set to last for 1 day 2 hours!

One of the bandit camps in S9 is showing to have received a buff. Even after refreshing the buff remains. Is this normal??

Apparently this can happen if your friend marks a collectible in front of a building.

A guildie of mine buffed my bookbinder, but now it shows 0 days, 0 hours, and 0 minutes on it's current production (manuscript) and has been like this for at least 4 hours now. I have cleared my cache, rebooted and reloaded, and no success.

How can a friend buff your bookbinder?

it is most likely a friend clicked on a collectible next to or in front of the bookbinder; since easter event this causes unbuffable buildings to look as though they are buffed. I have had a noble buffed in this way. Though this doesnt explain why his bookbinder has become static...

This has just happened to me after I had found the collectible. I wonder if it caused when the friend tries to flag a collectible already picked up? Luckily, as it was a copper mine it's easily fixed for me. Just gonna delete and rebuild.

yeh i found this, i didn't know it was to do with collectables. Have sent a ticket so Deves will fix it.

Have this problem as well, my Lettersmith was negatively "BUffed" for 24 hours , stopping production. Hope it will get fixed in tomorrow maintenance.

Surprising, but not much fun. Popup message says " A friend have stopped production on one of your buildings"

I had the same as Malhalla... took down the building and rebuilt it... This better get fixed quick!!!

I had that with my bookbinder. BB didn't help at all. Tome was almost ready, had to wait 24 hours before I could collect it - grr

Even my horseman statue managed to get buffed during an egg search.

The following has happened on my island:

This well has a "buff" running nearly 24 hours, but it doesn't say *which* buff, and the buff means that the well produces 0 water per deposit used ...

I have no idea what exactly caused it and what is going on here, but that's most definitely a bug.

I've just had this. A friend managed to buff my storehouse.

I'm just magic Chilly... :P
