Sailing Ship Error

Postby Mitch79 » Mon Mar 28, 2011 3:32 pm

Have a big problem that just came up. We had several ships sailing together, close and in sight. No one has gotten behind, no one ahead. All of a sudden just a little while ago, it was noticed that two of the ships had just disappeared. They weren't in sight. I thought at first that they had just fallen behind and mybe my timing was off and I didn't notice it or maybe they changed course. Two of the ships were still beside me, close enough to still be in sight after a tick. Went inside to a radio, stepped right back out 2 minutes later and now both of thse ships are gone as well as the others and we're completely alone in the middle of nowhere. Something's screwy. Can someone please look into this??? We should be right alongside the others.

Did it say "Shipname docks to ." and then it would say you're only capable of floating? It sounds like it might be that bug but I've never heard of it happening to several ships at the same time.

There was no docking message at all. Ive never seen this happen before. And I did ask someone on another ship if they saw the same error. Same thing happened with them. Two ships disappeared. They saw me and the one other ship but then after the tick, I was gone to them, and all the others were back together. So now it seems like I'm the one in the "void"

It sounds weird but if you pm me the name of the ship, I can look it up.

The ships are where they're supposed to be, it's just a display flaw. You should be able to see them on the next tick.
