Held items not visible

Postby SumBum » Fri Jan 06, 2012 5:12 pm

Seems only weapons show up when looking at a char's description. Is that something new or a bug?

Edit: I've seen a bucket and sextant so it's not just weapons showing, but most things aren't showing up that used to.

One of my chars have no picture of the surroundings at "location" when travelling. The other one has. They are in different language groups and it's the non-english one that has no picture.

Thanks for reporting, we're working on a fix.

Can you try clicking the Locations button again? This happens some time for unknown reasons, but usually the map shows up if you try again.

I've done it several times. And earlier when it didn't work there was usually a text saying "send question again" (translated) and hitting F5 did the trick, but not now.

Should the title of this thread be changed to things seen since the updates? :)

To add to the "location" issue: the map does not appear if you're on a boat docked to something (another boat or harbor). It's not an issue of the graphic not loading - the "submit query" doesn't appear nor does it indicate a broken image and I tried refreshing the page. I don't know about traveling on land, but the map does show up if you're in a parked vehicle. None of mine are on the road right now so maybe someone else could check that.

It's probably related to fixing the bug that it was possible to see outside from a cage inside a building. A boat in a harbor is in a way indoors since the parent location is a building.

Majix, can you confirm that you are on a docked ship? If not please PM me the vehicle name.

Another difference (bug or feature?) since the update -- project list doesn't list initiator and start date any more?

gejyspa: really? So it is player dependant or was already fixed, because for me everything works just like it worked before the update.

It shows if the initiator is present, otherwise not. I think it always has been like that?

Which one of them? The held items, the location map or the project list?

(because I still have no map)
