Bugs in DruidsRPG223

Once a vehicle is blown up in the vehicle specialist subclass or a turret is blown up in the turret specialist subclass and if the creator happens to be in them, the ultima is somehow deactivated when the player ghosts or dies. I don't know why but it just happens.

I'll have a look. Not sure why that should be.

Also the link turret does not give a boost to another turret if it is linking it. Nor is xp shared even if the link turret is linking the other turret. I tried this with Rapier being in the link turret and I being in another, we were both engineers.

The normal turrets only get boosted by an Engineer Linkgun. It isn't geared towards it being an engineer or not engineer, it is EngLink or not EngLink.

I've noticed that when you switch between classes and subclasses, you lose points.

That should not be happening - except the one point for purchasing the subclass. Can you give me details? Presumably your level isnt changing?

this can qualify as a bug.. waves are ending before monsters are death

Level does not change. When I purchased a WM sub class, I maxed out everything in the sub class. When I decided to play as aregular WM and sold the sub class, I lost around 700 points-no big deal since I had plenty. Then, when I sold the regular WM class and went back to the sub class, I again lost points.

Looking at DEMONSLAYER at the moment, you are level 619, which gives 618*7= 4326 points.

From the stats page, you have currently bought
Weapon speed - 50 points
Health bonus - 100 points (half of 200)
adrenaline - 150 points (250-100)
Attack bonus - 80 points
damage reduction - 50 points
AmmoMax - 80 points

Class Weapons master - 1 point
SubClass - 1 point
Loaded Weapons 2 - 25 points
Vampire 10 - 325 points
Resupply 4 - 90 points
Awareness 2 - 45 points
Denial 2 - 30 points
Regeneration 5 - 125 points
Ghost 3 - 85 points
Ultima 2 - 100 points
CounterShove 5 - 75 points
Retaliate 10 - 325 points
Power jump 3 - 60 points
iron legs 4 - 70 points
Quickfoot 5 - 100 points
Shields Up 4 - 110 points
Cautiousness 5 - 125 points
Smart healing 4 - 90 points
Air master 4 - 70 points
Speed switcher 2 - 35 points
Vehicle Eject 1 - 5 points
Wheeled Vehicle Stunts 1 - 15 points
Weapons Proficiency 10 - 200 points

total points spent is 2617 points
You have points left = 1714.
1714+2617 = 4331
which looks like you have 5 too many points?

So your character hasn't lost them on an ongoing basis. When do you think you have lost them - immediately after reconnecting having sold your subclass?

It seems like I lost the points after selling..............but guess not!!!

BTW, are you sure that you are not an accountant?

How dare you.

I am insulted

OK, these never change once purchased, period

Weapon speed
Health bonus
Adrenaline
Attack bonus
Damage reduction
AmmoMax
Class
Subclass

The class/subclass configuration and the points bought and sold will change as the configuration changes. So, if a player wants to know what his/her total points available, they should look after the sell and prior to purchase of any abilities.

Szlat I think this is related to the vamp gnats. It tends to happen when someone feeds the gnats. The spawns don't get killed by the end of the wave, and the monster count goes off.

No. We have seen titans, queens, and warlords still alive after the countdown for the next wave.

The invasion code keeps a count of how many monsters it thinks are still alive. In each wave, after a while it stops spawning new monsters and when it thinks all existing monsters are dead, it will move onto the next wave.

What is probably happening is the count is getting screwed, so the invasion code thinks all the monsters are dead, where there are some left alive still. So it starts the new wave.

At this point it could be any creature left alive - it was earlier the count got corrupted. So it is a question of finding what corrupted the count.

Now it could be the gnats. I did put code in so the invasion code would ignore any additional gnats that got replicated, but there could be a bug in it. Or it could be from the giant gasbags spawning little gasbas, or from queens spawning pupae. Or it may be from something else - e.g. a monster killing another monster, or even a pet dying. We will have to keep an eye on it and see if we can see a pattern of when it starts.

It usually starts in the later waves, i.e. wave 12/13/14/15/16

ummm think I've seen it in waves sooner than that! but i think someone has mentioned this before or in game it maybe the lava skjaar that is messing it up! I have seen a wide asst of diff type of monsters left alive after the count starts. so it has to be them or some other new pet that is make'n it happen!

I suppose one way to test it out would be to just have one monster type configured, then see if it happens. If not, then move onto the next monster until we find it.

And since the vampire gnats are one of the most likely causes, we could just have 16 waves of vampire gnats.

Problem is, we might never get to the end of wave 1
