Posible bug: Double attack same group of animal?

Postby Kanon » Fri Sep 29, 2006 2:03 pm

First of all, I'm not really sure what happened, only that it was a weird effect:

I choose all the animals in location, and attacked. I hurt most of them, but in the events, two showed that I had "inexpertly killed a using a bone club." (the name of the animal left blank. When I watched again the available animals there, only the ones that showed the name were available for hitting, and two (same amount of blank animals in events) were available, and I could hit them (again?). And the part I'm not sure is that I think I got the meat and bones as if I had killed those animals. So, I attacked twice (first with blank name in events and then normally) and maybe I got meat as if I killed them the first time.

I'm not sure if it clear what happened. I could copy/paste the events, but they are in spanish.

Something similar happened to me a few days ago. I attacked a few animals and the page didn't load, so I refreshed it and on the events screen it showed that I attacked each animal twice back to back. I don't know if it actually did double damage to each one of them, but is sure surprised all of the characters around me who had to wait till the next day to attack again and some newspawn(me) comes up and attacks all the animals twice back to back. :lol:

I found, on a road recently, the following listed animals:

1 hawk
1 rabbit
1 hawk


[not sure if it was a rabbit, but it was definitely two hawks]

Not sure why it was listed like that, and not like this:

2 hawks
1 rabbit


Anyway, I attacked the top hawk and hurt it, and both hawks had their checkbox removed. Not sure if this is related to the current discussion or not though...

Sounds like a ghost animal sort of thing, Kanon; That used to happen on the roads a lot but then I think they fixed it (it's listed under common bugs/problems/whatever). I'm really not sure on that problem and its causes though so I'll leave it to someone in programming to explain.

Psymann, you can only hit a species of animal once a day in a location. Therefore, you couldn't hit the hawks twice in that location on the road even though they're in separate groups. The reason they're in separate groups, I think, is because of the direction they're going in. One is probably flying to one town and the other is flying to another. They can't both be going different directions and be grouped together, at least that wouldn't make sense to me.

I've seen it a number of times myself, and I'm still a new player o.- not that uncommon, and honestly its hardly an issue. Just an odd happening... you could say you hit two birds with one swing or something :P

It is normal for animals on paths. But you still have one attack per species.
