dragging bug

Postby MelloYell » Thu Oct 20, 2011 3:25 pm

in port gallagher (the town), my char and one other were able to drag a third char into the harbour.

now, we are trying to drag her to a boat. one of us alone is able to drag her around 44%ish. however, even with both of us dragging her now, the percent is staying around 44. we even got two other people to help drag from the harbour to the boat, the percent is not changing no matter how many people help drag. we tried various combinations of chars initiating the drag, tried re-adjusting our grip, even tried to get people to get on the boat to help drag. the percent would not change no matter what we tried.

edit: we did just now finally be able to drag her. i still want to post this just in case it is something that needs to be looked into.

Sounds like something someone else reported earlier.

I have seen the percentage go down with the addition of more draggers. Something in the math is screwy.

Could be, or perhaps the dragee's tiredness/damage went down significantly when you weren't looking, and the third person added was mwta and awkward fighter.

Or it could be screwed up math.

I wish there was a way I could help. But I don't know the exact mathematics of how dragging is supposed to work, except that you can only drag yourself 49 or 50% regardless of what you're holding or your strength or whatever.

The problem seems to be in the display of D% on the player page only. Dragging works as it should. Currently it is the last character to join the dragging the decides what the D% says. This will be corrected as soon as I can find a little time to upload the fix.
