Let's look through the Patch list for the week of 03/12/2019 to see what updates, changes, and fixes have been made by the Developers, and what they mean for you.
Please note, the updates and bugs documented in this article are worked on by a team of developers. Where a single developer is individually mentioned, it simply reflects who confirmed the report as fixed or complete, and not that they were solely responsible.
Updates, Changes, Removals, and Additions
- Changed Flamethrower usage text in attack log: 'fired a burst'.
After a report from LimestonePie, the usage text for the Flamethrower item has been changed from "fired 1 round" to "fired a burst". This adjustment was made by aurel1.
- Changed Russian Roulette last games log ordering to use last action timestamp instead of time created.
MikePence observed an issue with the ordering of Russian Roulette Last games, in which two appeared back-to-back, despite having played a few others in between. Stewie noticed it appeared to be listing the games by creation date/time, rather than the end. aurel1 has since stated that games will now be ordered by the game's last action, due to the log being available even when the game is still active.
- Changed 'Items bought from Big Als' stat to 'Shop purchases' (I.e. All shops) (Since March 2012).
After a report from ArttiIsGod, Chedburn has changed the "Items bought from Big Al's" personal stat to "Shop purchases", which displays the amount of items a user has bought from City shops since March, 2012.
Bugs and Fixes
- Fixed territory war event duplication bug.
Lord_Gorgen noticed events for successful / failed territory assaults would generate multiple of the same event all at once. This issue has since been fixed by Kopites, after requiring a slight rebuild to the ending process.
- Fixed verification of email entry in login fields to emphasise that entering a 'username' is incorrect.
Upon attempting to log in with anything other than an e-mail address, a tooltip will now be displayed, to state that an e-mail address is required.
- Fixed broken SessionStorage updates causing money in wallet to briefly appear / disappear.
_Scofield_ observed that during trades the money they had added to the trade would magically appear in their wallet when changing to another page after accepting, but would then immediately disappear. svyat770 has since confirmed this as being fixed.
- Fixed an issue with the tabs on the Rules page while traveling.
DemonCyborg reported here that the tabs on the Rules page were misaligned while traveling; Stewie also noted the issue appears when viewing this page when logged out. Both of these have now been fixed, as confirmed by nikitad.
- Fixed the newspaper date occasionally dropping down to a second line on mobile screen view.
The year shown at the top of the Newspaper page should no longer drop down to the next line on mobile view after a report from Armpit128 was confirmed as fixed by nikitad.
- Fixed an issue with captcha permission priority over HJT.
In this report, Owen observed the Gym page not prioritising the Hospital / Jail time messages over the Captcha. aurel1 has since resolved this, stating that it was due to a set of incorrect inititial settings.
- Fixed racing condition issue when using newsletter bonuses.
Madevo repoted in this thread that they had received 2 events after claiming the Newsletter bonus, although they were unsure if they had actually received 500 energy — as it turned out, they did. Chedburn has since confirmed this has been resolved to prevent it from happening again.
- Fixed the stealth level on weapon information visibly increasing when mods were equipped (inconsistency).
Adrenalinas observed a weapon's stealth stat increasing (visually) when equipping weapon mods, while damage and accuracy did not increase their respective visual stat values, as is expected. aurel1 has since confirmed this as resolved.
- Fixed an issue with the Russian Roulette refresh button.
It was observed by MikePence that the refresh button icon for Russian Roulette did nothing, and would only work when clicking on the "Refresh" text, thus rendering this button useless for those using a mobile display. aurel1 has since confirmed this to have been resolved.
- Fixed faction territories profile link issue when city map was left in quick links mode.
It was observed in this thread by CloudJumper that if the City map was left in 'Quick Links' it would not automatically switch to the map when selecting a faction's territories link. Kopites has since resolved this issue.
- Fixed Scrooge hospital time, changing it to match Duke & Leslie.
Scrooge's hospital time has been changed to match other lootable NPC's after a report from hemi.
- Fixed displaying the 'topbar' on mobile screen view after changing icons position in settings.
An issue with displaying the sidebar / mobile topbar when turning icons off in Preferences has been resolved after a report from Pot, which nikitad confirmed to now have been resolved.
- Fixed weird characters appearing in messages.
In a report by Ampheromine, it was observed that line breaks (and spaces) would convert to a diamond shape with a question mark. This has since been resolved, as confirmed by Xepa4ep.
- Fixed an issue with special characters in bazaar titles.
An issue with converting special characters in bazaar titles has been confirmed as resolved by Xepa4ep after a report from Smokedkitty994.
- Fixed continuous loading after saving a display case without changes.
Upon attempting to save display cabinet changes, MikePence observed it would load continuously due to none having been made. This has since been resolved, as confirmed by Xepa4ep.
- Fixed an issue with post author name size on the forums.
Zee noticed an inconsistency with the size of the post author's name in the forums, as they appear slightly higher than the player's ID. Xepa4ep has confirmed this is resolved.
- Fixed empty items list issue after changing secondary weapon mods.
S-I-S reported here that when selecting mods for secondary weapons, all weapons would (visually) disappear from the list. Xepa4ep has since resolved this.
- Fixed an issue with a gap appearing at the bottom of the page when content height is less than the user's window.
An issue with a gap appearing at the bottom of the page has been resolved by the developers.
