heard weird sound on all travelling characters

Postby faolan » Sat Jun 30, 2007 9:11 pm

1943-1.29: You hear someone trying to break lock no. 4111967 at Hýzýr.

All my characters that are travelling heard that, and I don't even think some of them are on the same island. Is that supposed to happen?

My chars heard it too.

It's the "Phantom Lock"

i was just trying to ask a question, not report. I'm sorry, I don't see it on the wiki or the link you gave me, but I'm not going through four pages. I didn't know and I wasn't trying to report.

Everytime you hear the "phantom lock" you start to wonder as a player, where is that boat? why are they picking that lock? are there any characters in danger?

Now, this time i know excatly everything about it. It kinda feels wierd that your other characters hears something that another of your own character is a part of.

Since it's been around for so long, could someone look into the code and see what's causing it? It should just give an error message and not process anything.

Yes, it does appear to be getting worse. Now, not only is my character hearing locks been picked, they're also seeing notes been picked up:

2128-4.13: You see a man in his twenties take a copy of a note.


I received the above event while my character was on the road, where there is obviously no notes, and the man in his twenties isn't on the road either. :?

There was one day when all traveling characters actually appeared on the same road. That was about 60 Cantr years ago. Compared to that, there's very little messages. I haven't seen them lately but then again, I haven't been traveling on foot.

Yeh the man in his twenties picking up a note appeared to me too. :lol: i don't care that much...knowing that they are bugs I normally walk alone I just ignore it or rp it when I reach the next location...But instead of just reporting these things if you are walking with someone else try to rp it! :P it might get really fun :wink:
