Water Hazards and Swimming
While inside the Sea Cave today it seemed like Korsan's Swim speed would reduce round by round until he was reduced to a slow crawl.
Not sure if there is a bug with my character or the swimming script.
With gear he got his swim speed to 15 effect ranks, and he would start off fast, but every round he would gradually get slower and slower as if the swim speed was accumulating.
This oddity was not effecting the other PC's in the Party.

Luther with a swim of 6 (thanks sealskin boots) was only able to "walk" swim. No armor worn.

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
This is what happened to Murgen during the session on Friday July 13th. He would start off at normal speed and end up at a crawl. Since I had no idea what swim was supposed to work like (and stated as much) I had no reason to think there was an issue. Suffice it to say that Murgen will never go swimming again.jmecha wrote:Water Hazards and Swimming

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
Putting a rank in swim (trained) gives you a bonus. Not sure what is up with gradual slowdown, never had it for my test toons. Did it give you a message on percentage?Rumple C wrote:Quill with a swim speed of 4 was able to "run" swim.jmecha wrote:Water Hazards and Swimming

There's a place I like to hide
A doorway that I run through in the night
Relax child, you were there
But only didn't realize and you were scared
It's a place where you will learn
To face your fears, retrace the years
And ride the whims of your mind

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
Everyround I would get a message claiming my speed was taking a 15% penalty, and just by eyeballing it, it appeared my character was moving 15% slower round after round till Korsan was at a slow motion heavy footed walk.

Round One: Fast Run Swim
Round Two: Run Swim
Round Three: Acceptable Walking Speed
Round Four: a Slower Walking Speed
Round Five: a Crawling Walking Speed
Korsan swam out to the corner there and back to the dry land from which he came, and was moving at a very slow crawl by the time he reached shore.

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
You are holding your breath messages only come up when waterbreathing potions or spells wear off. I think you are slowing down because of the length of time holding your breath. Apparently the code only recognizes underwater swimming.
Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
Confirmed this is still an issue. When I logged yesterday and went to the Dripping Dagger, my followers are now down to 400. Jack must be getting worse with practiceCleasor wrote:The followers awarded from bardic performances decreases (or reverts) during updates (I believe). Jack had over 600 followers but when he performed after the update, his follower number was 520. This happened once before as well.

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
I did that! I sleepily went to the Jade Jug by mistake and then when I went to the Hanged Man I lost 100 xp and my followers dropped to -62. And I got pelted with rotten lettuce. Pfft. Amateur Night.

Re: Mod 4.0 Bug Thread
Me? Nothing. There was just a line of Waterdavian women who paid good money when they heard Captain Jack would be on stage! They we're heartbroken when he didn't show up to complete his performance contract.Akivaria wrote:What did you do, Ayergo?Does the output message say something about thrown cabbage from upset fans?
(Don't take contracts and not perform, stockpiling them for later date/cash in)
