S986 Bashers Rogues vs. RTA Incorporated Gates of Somerset 2007-04-17 19:56:59
S988 Bashers Rogues vs. Xena's Angels Gates of Somerset 2007-04-17 20:56:59
================================

S986 / I looted a badlander. It was shown as a "ghost box" No 3d image.
I was able to load a driver in it and cargo. It did not show up in my list of cars.
=================================
S988 / Speed and I knocked off a Blitzer, Striker and a symphony. I looted the striker 3d visible. But...I could not access my DT to get my gunners to drive it away. I clicked on my DT, trying everything to get it to come up.......No Joy! Maybe I need to click on my DT first to access my gunners and move them into the waiting box.

So.......I'm getting frustrated here! I fight and kill them but cant get them! with fixing armor, reloads and no looted cars, I'm out at least 25k

yup. do that until sam squashes this bug. and plan ahead. If you have 3 guys in 1 car, take out 2 at the same time if there's 2 cars to loot. If you have to go back for another driver, you may not be able to get him.

Sorry guys.. what's happening now is that car icons are getting 'stuck' and unclickable, is that right?

Do they get stuck slightly away from their correct 'home' position?

Does it happen on the first click as well as subsequent ones?

jd: you seem to have private messaging turned off?

#1 yes

#2 S988 the Striker was slightly overlapping my DT. I could not click either car after adding the striker to box

#3 If I had clicked on my DT first "I may" have been able to remove drivers. But after adding the Striker to the box, had I been able to remove drivers for looted cars, I dont think I would have been able to click it (DT) again so I could add tires and weapon reloads

Messages turned back on...my bad!

No need for apologies. You are doing your best, I know this. I can only imagine how frustrated you get reading about the problems we are experiencing and being the only one able to fix it!

That's why it's called 'beta-TESTING'! (I'm the one who needs to remember that!)

Your dedication is very much appreciated Sam.

Thanks jd, your dedication is also appreciated!

I've just patched in another slight change which I'm hoping will fix it. I couldn't make the 'stuck' problem happen at all unfortunately, so I can't really tell if this will work. If it doesn't, I'll try something more radical.

I spent the last couple of hours preparing Gateway and its associated wilderness maps for adding to the game! - not quite there but hopefully they'll be ready this evening. The Gateway map is another complex one like Somerset. And I'll think you'll like it, it's way cool. The road maps are pretty funky too- ViKKing's 'pre apocalypse highways' feature in them.

While looking through the "gangs" pages, I noticed the addition of 'gateway' NPC gangs!

I was wondering when it would be ready!...Didn't want to rush you though!

Played one alone tonight, seemed to work good. I was being extra careful to not move the cursor as I clicked my own cars to access gunners. Once clicked though they still move away from their 'home position' by a little bit.

Worked good with more than one person also as Vikk said. (except for the 'home position problem on my end. Maybe just a Mac thingy.

If you can muster up the courage jd, can you try not being careful the next time? - do it as a test mission perhaps. I'm unable to create the error on my own computer so it would be great to hear from someone who did suffer the 'unclickable cars' bug that it has been fixed.

If they move away slightly from their home position, that's not a big problem, as long as they can still be clicked after that!
