Original article
Let's look through the Patch list between the 17- 24/03/2020 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, and Additions
- Added the ability to compare different stats at the same time on the same graph to Personal Stats.
After a suggestion from Ninivah to allow for a secondary/multiple y-axes on personal stats graphs, Chedburn agreed to add the ability to compare multiple personal stats at once - although only one y-axis is used so comparing stats of different scales is not possible.
- Added 'press and hold' mini-profile functionality to chats & sidebar.
- Added player name & faction tag to mini-profiles.
- Changed mini-profile 'press and hold' trigger delay from 1s to 0.5s.
On the 17th the above fairly self-explanatory updates were made to the mini-profile feature released on the 10th.
- Changed high drug addiction gym hospitalization to not trigger if the user is under attack.
This change ensures that users will not be able to escape an incoming attack by going to the Gym with high drug addiction.
- Changed racing car list order to the sum of all combined stats descending.
- Changed official racing car selection to show track name at the top.
- Changed official races to select the car at the top of the list automatically by default in the background.
aurel1 notes in this report by Rogue that a planned update has gone live regarding the ordering of racing cars - they now display in descending order of combined stats, with an additional unique ID assigned to each car to be used as a secondary sorting parameter, in the event that there are multiple cars with the same combined total.
Additionally, when joining an official race, the name of the track is displayed while selecting a car.
- Released new Advanced Search system with 'condition' field & input caching.
After a suggestion from SrAiDeR an additional "condition" parameter has been added to the advanced search feature. It is now possible to filter uses by Married, Travelling, in Hospital, Jail etc, or "Not" in these conditions.
Bugs, Fixes, and Typos
- Fixed touchscreen keyboard disappearing while sending money via mini-profiles.
- Fixed unresponsive bust/bail/revive buttons on mini-profiles.
- Fixed tooltip layering issue with mini-profiles while traveling.
Ahab reported here that when sending money on a touchscreen device the keyboard will pop up and then disappear along with the mini-profile. xHotBodyx also reported a layering issue with regards to a player's icon tooltips on mini-profiles while travelling. nikitad confirmed that these issues were fixed, along with a number of other small issues with the mini-profiles that went unreported.
- Fixed updating loan amount message while changing money amount in the input on Loan page.
Bojak reported here that on the loan shark page, clicking the '$' on the money input field does not cause the weekly-charge text to be updated along with the amount to decrease loan by. nikitad confirmed this has been fixed.
- Fixed scrolling racers list on touchscreen devices when on desktop mode.
Lugburz reported here that it was not possible to scroll through a list of racers while using desktop mode on a mobile device since the scroll bar would not move. love_intent confirmed that this issue has been fixed.
- Fixed status icons always showing online for user lists on several pages I.e. Friends / Enemies lists.
oconnor observed that on certain pages, in particular his friendslist / blacklist, every user was displayed as "green" or online, even those who were idle or inactive. nikitad reported this issue as fixed.
- Fixed dropdown selection layering issue when selecting options for company job specials.
thailand reported in this thread a visual glitch when attempting to use the company special to view the stock in a particular country, where the dropdown menu displaying locations was layered behind certain elements of the company tabs. nikitad confirmed this had been fixed.
- Fixed displaying 550 error message on the Userlist page in some rare situations.
Chedburn notes that last week a bug was fixed regarding deleted users still appearing in userlist tables. As a result of this, a 550 occurred whenever they appeared in a search result. This has now been resolved.
- Fixed Russian Roulette mugging technique by adding a 3-minute cache to global statistics.
In yet another nerf to mugging, RR stalkers have been neutered this week by a change to the global statistics page. Previously, it was possible to keep hawk-eyes on the stats page and look for a change to the "total money won" statistic - as soon as this occurred it meant a game had finished, and it would be possible to mug the winner if they had not adequately protected themselves. Now, a 3-minute cache has been placed on these statistics, rendering this method all but obsolete.
- Fixed displaying faction tags immediately after switching on full territory view on the City.
Owen noticed that when toggling "Full Territory View" on and off on the city map, faction tags do not re-display. Kopites confirmed that this has been fixed.
- Fixed issue using standard ammunition instead of special ammunition when amount remaining was low.
xedx reported in this thread that when he had a very small quantity of special ammo remaining, his weapon was only firing regular ammo. aurel1 noted that this was due to the equipping of two weapons that use the same size ammo, and confirmed that the issue was fixed.
- Fixed error message showing wrong text when attempting to buy / sell ammo while in an attack.
Helcostr observed that the error message shown when attempting to purchase ammunition while in the middle of an attack stated they could not do so while in hospital or jail. This has since been resolved by aurel1.
- Fixed wrong burn damage value appearing in attack log upon finishing hit.
An issue in which a wrong burn damage value was appearing in the attack log was resolved by aurel1 after a report by Bug.
- Fixed time progress circles on Daily Dime and Lucky Shot Lotto in the Casino.
MikePence observed in this report that the time progress circle only appeared on the Holy Grail lottery, and has since been resolved (presumably) by Love__Intent to show on Daily Dime and Lucky Shot too.
- Fixed searching companies for non-printable characters / emojis.
An issue which prevented searching companies with emotes or other non-printable characters has been resolved after a report by Ahab. This was confirmed as fixed by nikitad.

Lugburz reported here that mini-profiles do not appear from player names on the racing statistics page. nikitad confirmed that this has been fixed.
- Fixed ordering of Bust and Bail buttons on Profiles.
xHotBodyx reported here that the ordering of the Bust and Bail buttons on profiles is inconsistent with the layout on the Jail page. Chedburn acknowledged that the order should be Bust / Bail - and nikitad reported the inconsistency as corrected.
- Fixed pagination not appearing at the bottom of the Hospital, Jail and Search pages.
xedx reported here that there is no option to select pages of the Hospital when scrolled to the bottom of the userlist. aurel1 confirmed that this has been corrected for the Hospital, as well as the Jail and Search pages.
