Bug: Presitge

Post by fhko »

I feel that it is necesary to finally come forward about this since no one else has (probably because I'm the only one who knows the bug exists). Anyway... several worlds (worlds I can remeber: luca, biplane, planitia...) have reset the prestige that can still be obtained back to their highest amounts after I have cashed in on all I could get out of them. I'm not sure of any sole cause of this problem but it may be linked to world downage. This has been partially responsible (the other part being lack of competition) for my being galactic president. :!: "I Am Not A Crook" :!: :wink:

Ah humm....
yeah,wierd bug...I thought there was somthing wierd about that number :P

To tell the truth somehow I found some sort a bug for CR. (when there was no prestige and only CR,which you gain CR from worlds,not space) *gasp*

It could be something with the worlds,I agree with that.
...and I think defraging my harddrive reset the max you could of got on worlds as well.
So I'm thinking some sort of registry key? I dunno.
Tractor.cfx file? Hmm...

only thing i can think of is when worlds have to reregister.
the exchange will reset since the galaxy goes by world id not name and since the world will get a new id the galaxy thinks its a new world.

luca had to be reregistered when i got it from freako.
don't think planitia did when i got it from jemrada though.

If it had to do with reregistering then how is it I've gotten prestige from biplaneworld atleast three times? I'm pretty sure it has always been under magic's ownership and still is atleast since the last time I checked. The planitia pres reset was recent...it was about a day or two after I gained my last chunk of 20 (don't remember the date but if theres any records on these things it might help or if anyone else remembers...).

yea, thier probably is a bug somewhere in it.
i haven't had to reregister planitia at all recently. plus i have it set up so it wont need to be reregistewred if it changes pcs.

doesen't matter if biplane uis still magics.
if a world changes pc's or if the pc gets reformated it will usually have to be reregistered.

I dunno either, but it seems to me much more likely that the recent galaxy update has caused these effects, or perhaps changed the value of presitge, or something. Need to speak to mit to see wot's going on there.
