I visited the TALES Clan Hall to see about the Member Cap. Ours was at 35 with 190 cigs in the Member Cap Bank. The message stated we only had to donate 0 cigs to increase the member cap.

Having 49 cigs, I put in 2 cigs. It increased our member cap to 36. I thought I'd put in zero to see what happened, but I accidentally clicked without entering anything... so my remaining 47 cigs got dumped into the Bank, increasing its total to 239. It increased the cap to 37. I put in 0, it increased to 38. I put in 0 again, it increased to 39.

Gamina began testing it, also entering 0, and she ended up increasing it to 52.

Not realizing this, I tried once more with the 0 and bumped it up to 53.

We stopped, not sure what is happening.
We're both pretty sure this is not how it's supposed to work.

Also Gamina noted there's a part of the script in the buff area where cigs are referred to as "gems", which she thinks is a holdover from the LotGD code.

She sent this to me. "Clan Buffs mentions "gems" here:

Clan Buffs

Your clan bank doesn't have enough gems to purchase the upgrade!

...and maybe in other places."

It's not chat specific, it's pageload specific, just, if I'm in a place that I own or have a key of keys for, the lag of a page load is 25-30 seconds. It used to be slightly longer because of having more options, but this amount of lag is an unplayable amount.

So Junebug and I discovered a bit of a bug in the item customization system. Using certain characters in custom item names can cause them to spontaneously disappear when interacting with older aspects of the game's code; in my case, it was placing the Shady Merchant's +1 upgrade onto an armor name that included quotation marks. When I attempted to fix this by resetting the whole thing and going back to stock armor, it still showed up blank. Switching back to a custom made it reappear, but when I opened up the customization window to re-test, it was blanked again. If I update while the bar is blank, it does not give me the warning that I'm reverting to stock items, and instead prompts the normal update screen for customs.

Here, have some screenshots:

http://prntscr.com/60z81a The broken rollover.

http://prntscr.com/60z7rf The prompt for clearing a custom, given only after inputting text into the blank field, saving it, then deleting that.

http://prntscr.com/60zame The "fixed" rollover. Disappears once the customization window is re-opened.

http://prntscr.com/60zpv4
http://prntscr.com/60zq5h Functional rollover and update window, after the quotes have been removed.

Interesting, but probably unrelated: Stock armor now lacks the +1. May require further testing.

This is a miniscule problem, a minute-long problem if you will. It's not so much bothersome as it is puzzling.

My place (which is called @-\--) at 13, 30, 3 east of Ace High, has a room named "Path to Izakaya." In this room I made some pages of a man singing songs. I programmed 6 different programs with 6 different pages to fire twice a day using the Time Range contrivance.

My problem is, if a program is set to stop firing at 00:00, the page attached to that contrivance shows no matter what time it currently is.

So I began to play with it. Starting a program at 00:00 is not a problem, everything shows fine. Ending a program at 23:59 is fine.

Is it supposed to be this way? If so, please let me know.

I have screenshots to illustrate the problem, if needed.

In the final case, I had connected to two Netherlands VPNs at once (My chains usually consist of 3 VPNs and show no ill effects) and connection to the island was too bad to type in chat or view chat in general.

I'd suggest an investigation into this, though it might not be serious and just a fault of my VPNs, though I did use different connections in these tests and they were conducted over a 2 week period.

I distinctly remember having about 82 HP at some point (because I messed up and added an Improb Point to HP), but now it's at an even 50 again. Now, we all know that too much HP is a bad thing, but I'm worried that it might get lower than 10 base HP, which if I remember correctly is very bad.

HOW: Just go into the Jungle, get a bunch of temporary changes to the character's HP, and DK. I don't know if this has been occurring across all races, but I know it's definitely happening to Squats. Maybe the Point in HP is causing it as well?

WHERE: Not sure how to answer this. In the... game? It's a fairly general thing.

WHEN: I am... honestly not sure. Daz has been a Squat since the name change, and a Midget before that, except for that one DK where I forgot the name was changed and got a Mutant r6 for my trouble. This hadn't been happening until after the name change, so perhaps something went awry when the race was recoded? I remember that there was a point at which the Squats were, for all intents and purposes as far as the game was concerned, Humans, so I'm assuming the race's code particulars had to be messed with for some reason.

Eating ration packs or energy drinks give the correct energy/hunger messages but does not change the displayed nausea bar.

I entered combat with Three French Hens, in the Jungle just outside Improbable Central. All was well. I hit the first French Hen in its vulnerable spots (puzzle combatting away) until I K.O.'d it. All well and good.

But then the Puzzle Combat section was missing for the next hen; all I could do to it was flail indiscriminately (which I did, for one round). The Puzzle Combat section immediately reappeared, and I puzzle combatted away until the second French Hen was down.

Then the same thing happened - in my first round of attacking the third Hen, I could not use Puzzle Combat and had to fight by Indiscriminate Flailing.

What:

The problem is when fighting more than 1 monster than 1 time, any effects (glory points, loss of stamina (from blows), etc) are multiplied by the number of monsters in combat. Here is a sample, using glory points as an example.

Strong Attack coming up! Wild Horse will perform a powerful attack in the next round. Target the attacking body part to try to block the attack, or take advantage of its other vulnerable areas!

You earn 1,076 Glory Points this round!
You earn 1,090 Glory Points this round!
You earn 1,104 Glory Points this round!
You earn 1,118 Glory Points this round!

Notice, I earned glory points for each monster in combat, effectively multiplying my glory points earned by 6. Now, this seems not to be much of a problem, because the players are rewarded. But when an enemy does a really strong attack, one that takes stamina away, it is also multiplied by 6. Furthermore, the exp and req. gained by defeating a heard of monsters is vastly diffrent. In the Wild horse example, "You receive 26 total experience!" showed up, enough for only 1 horse. But the req was enough to cover all of them: "266 shiny Requisition tokens are dispensed from the nearest camera!"

How:

You need to fight a battle where there is more than 1 monster, and do one of the following: win, take a hit powerful enough to knock out stamina, take a hit and gain glory points.

Where:

Anywhere there is a multi-monster battle. Example: http://improbableisland.com/runmodule.php?module=worldmapen&op=fight&stam=fight&c=127-142648 (This was the battle of the wild horses.)

This isn't so much a hindrance as it seems to be a game-breaker. When fighting multiple monsters (such as the 9-at-once Pyramids) just a few moments ago, I noticed that the meters for my Chemical Pack were filling at gratuitously high amounts, filling to full after just a couple of rounds when many monsters are being fought at once, then gradually decreasing to normal as each monster is KO-ed. I think the Chemical Pack is having the same problem that Stamina did a while back; it's calculating chemical gain per monster rather than per level.

This can most likely be reproduced by fighting multiple monsters at once and simply closing observing the counter for the Chemical Pack implant. Common multiple-monster encounters include Pyramids, Feral KittyBikes, and Work Experience Lads.

I am uncertain if this is intentional or an actual bug, so I am putting it under a Private Petition.

WHAT: So I decided to try out a Spiderkitty Launcher and found out that the Spiderkitty Launcher Fail debuff is a little strange. In short, during the first NewDay when you purchase the weapon, the Spiderkitties are launched first, and then the damage from the recoil is done to you. Any other subsequent NewDay while wielding the weapon results in the recoil being done to one first, and then the Spiderkitties actually doing the damage. Also, the Spiderkitty Launcher debuff persists even after selling/changing weapons, and even after a Drive Kill.

HOW: Purchase a Spiderkitty Launcher, enjoy, then wait for NewDay to roll or use a Chronosphere.

The "problem" can also be seen in the player's buffs, the order of those buffs in the buff stack is reversed upon NewDay.

I find that after using the UV booth when I have a high heat load the very next round of combat I enter will display heat damage (something has gone horribly wrong etc..) despite my heat gauge being on 0%. If I survive the damage then in the next round of combat everything is back to normal (no heat, no terrible things).
Also I'm not sure if it's intentional but after using the booth my heat level can go much higher than normal, I tried to get back to CC404 a few times with max heat, and ran into monsters, I thought for sure I'd die from heat damage, but I didn't. Instead my standby until cooled showed that it would take 6% instead of the 4% it normally shows for a full bar. So since I was at CC404 rather than spend the stamina I used the UV booth, my heat disappeared, then in the next round of combat my chest explodes.....

I seem to recall, dimly, an issue where if your character simply closes the window (i.e. is not logged out, but not actively on the Island) and gets rescued, you get dumped back into the middle of a fight, but then are promptly beaten and sent to the Failboat (instead of an Outpost). Perhaps it's the not formally logging out that is causing the unexpected behaviors? Regardless, this is the first time I've won. I'll try to find an exit and see if I can actually leave.

Hello, a newb here speaking. That is en-ou-ou-beeee.

Was playing an my dumb smartphone and was really immensed in the role playing. Trying to protect Jill-the-NPC-noob, probably more caringly than most newbs would.
And then, because the cheap smart-ass phone has a cheap touch screen, I ended up fumbling and clicking the "Look for a difficult fight" button instead of the "Look for an easy fight". A zombie came up, I managed to escape.
Some amount of fights later, when Jill had 58 out of 110 required money-thingsies, I fumbled again. It was a dwarf. I tried escaping, I tried escaping, I tried escaping. To no avail. I used all my free grenades - the one zap, the one bang and the one whapoomzoomfwhooosh-fire-thingy. And then, two rounds later, I was K.O.

Dunno. Maybe it's not a bad thing for the game - I am hoping to see Jill again, although they are not on the ship, at least...
But it's a bad thing for the N00b. I lost a fight not because of stupidity, but because my phone has a bad screen. I concentrated on clicking the "Easy fight" button, but got in an impossible one anyway. That really broke the fourth wall and gave me a very annoyed feeling on my first hour of playing this game. Not good.

Some suggestions for how this could be avoided:
1) Rearrange the buttons to be Easy - Normal - Difficult instead of Normal - Easy - Difficult. That way, if a touch-screen user fumbles they will choose "Normal" instead of "Difficult". They are more likely to survive that and still learn a lesson (the lesson being, don't do fights using a smartphone if you must not lose a fight!)
2) Increase spacing between the buttons (maybe this could be an option in the preferences?)
3) 1+2 combined
5) Ask for confirmation before letting the level 2 noob with level 1 Jill attack a seriously dangerous monster when on mobile version of the site.
4) Always allow escape from Difficult Monsters if Jill hasn't accumulated the first 110 money yet. If in doubt, only allow escape if it's done as the first move after the beginning of the fight, showing that entering the fight was indeed likely to result through a fumble. This can be either a quiet thing or the monster can "give mercy to the fumbling Jill who clearly accidentally ended up in a battle too difficult for them. Be more careful next time."

This is an UI issue and even though I can role-playing-explain this in my head, it still is in reality a game-external reason for Bad Stuff happening.

I think I will be able to buy new grenades and imagine they are the original gift grenades, but that will take some annoying extra grinding. Also, I really hope Jill won't be terminally upset because of me having had them knocked out... :'(

When I do a construction activity (masonry, carpentry, decorating) and complete the job, this is the flavour text that I see:

You set your Backpack and Bandolier aside, grab your tools and get to work.
The warmth from your Builder's Brew makes the stone feel light as a feather!
Before you realise it, the job's done!

After a period of industrious activity, you wipe the sweat from your brow and take a look at how things are shaping up.

Here's everything that's currently unfinished about this place. For each activity, there's a toolbox and a material, except in the case of Decorating where you just need the toolbox. Toolboxes can be rented from Suzie's Hardware in Improbable Central. Your Stamina has to be in the green to do any of these things.

So, that's
1. No weight penalty
2. Brew
3. Job is complete
4. You did some work
5. List current jobs.

Surely 3 and 4 should be the other way around? "You did some work and now the job is done" would seem to make more sense!

Or is the "you did some work" supposed to refer to the remaining build jobs? If so, it would make a little more sense, but still seems confusing to me. Perhaps it means "after this period of industrious activity, you look to see what else needs doing"?


That's what you see when doing the last part of a job. If you do only part of it without running out of stamina, there's no "before you realise it, the job's done" line. And when you run out of stamina, you see this:

You set your Backpack and Bandolier aside, grab your tools and get to work.
The warmth from your Builder's Brew makes this decorating job a trivial matter indeed!
You find yourself getting tired. Thoroughly aware of just how daft it is to do any sort of construction work when you're not completely and totally awake, you set down your tools and decide to take it easy until you're rested again.

Put in 12, it says 0 more.

Try to cook 12, it says I can't do that.

If I put 9 in, it says I have room for another 10 or 9 (depending on if I have 0 or 1 herbs in the pan too).

If I put 8 in, it says I have room for another 8, 9 or 10 (depending on if I have 0, 1 or 2 herbs in the pan too).

No idea what's going on there. This happened when I had 32 meats, and again all the way down to 8, so it probably isn't that it can't count when your meat total is the same as the number you're putting in.

So, it seems to be
a) miscounting the 10 Half Decent Meats as 8, and
b) sometimes not realising that I've put HDMs in at all.

It's just the display which is wrong, not the actual capacity.

If you accept he gives you an ale, which gives you 10 rounds of a "Buzz" buff. Every round you fight after that, you get the flavour text "Faced with the prospect of death, you sober up a little." and the number of rounds decreases by one as it should. However, long after the 10 rounds are up, you still get that text. The text also appears during "Something Improbable!" events in the jungle, which shouldn't necessarily ever happen.

It's clear that the option just isn't removed upon clicking it. Unless someone wants to really be sure they divorced someone, it's a non-issue, more cosmetic than anything.

To recreate, just divorce yourself from another contestant, the option is still left there to confirm the divorce.
