Petition to dedicate a whole update to fixing jank

[Zel]

Welp I hope vetex fixes it

[Nuclearman7]

There is no way im the only one who has noticed that messenger birds can significantly slow your ship down right? Didnt see anyone mention it here yet. I absolutely hate it

Oh and ghosts can do this too

[OOFUS]

Also why is it that the map in Nimbus sea is STILL squished and distorted? I have to rely on markers to sail in the right direction because the compass and direction on the map is completely off

[Scandin]

The birds have CanCollide on, which by it’s name says they can collide with objects… you’re an object, your ship is an object, the bird can push you… who the hell even tested that?

[Scandin]

Yeah.. I got confused when I first saw it, like why is the CIRCULAR vents elipses?
Normal

hopefully intended

[tbd]

if they absolutely have to be collidable then they can also be made massless with a setting which will stop them from interacting with physics bodies

[Redaction]

something like this as a boss encounter would actually be fire

[Birbo]

could the janky-ass water platform behavior (magma, ice, underwater volcano) be fixed, yesterday when i was trying to unstuck my brig with ice platforms they launched me into the dark sea
i also heard about an underwater volcano’s platforms launching a friend’s entire brig into the dark sea alongside him

[Nuclearman7]

Genuinely have no idea how that ever made it through testing

[ProbableHazard]

Even something as basic as blocking is janky, as I’ve run into countless situations in which I can’t block at all and there’s no clear reason why, or the blocking sticks to where it’s held down until I press the key. That’s a severe issue when blocking is integral to both combat and saving yourself from fall damage. Also for some reasons my cauldrons break literally all consumables on use, or at least luck cauldrons do.

@Mr_hyperspace

Leave flying whales in though that’s a staple of the series

Put it in the lore

[Scandin]

“the whales fly in the air cause uh.. idk they are infused with wind magic?”

[Crusade]

The White Eyes that hopped over an island with it’s nose while I was playing was just using air step.

Oh and I also think I saw the Omen or a Kraken on top of an island once from Windrow.

[LightingmAIn]

vetex got you bro

[Redaction]

very cool but i want it to FLY
i mean i know it will because its a whale but i want it to be intentional

Small gaggle of Bugs that have been occurring with me:

• Warlords cannot swing a colossal with anything in their off-hand, because we LOVE pointless aesthetic additions that break your entire experience At Random due to Arcane and whatever obnoxious way they handle mouse events
• Throwing Harpoons do not work. I’m enjoying Berserker ever since I swapped over to it and it Pains me that I cannot Formally embark on hunting sea life without punching it.
• Cannonfists’ new Crash breaks you entirely if you swap during the cast. This is preventable, but pesky if you’re mindlessly cycling.
• Enemy AI can still end up duplicating in a way and they’ll start throwing out double casts/dodges when they should only be utilizing one. Even King C. can do it.

I’ll think of more as I come upon them again, but ouh… I would love one update that isn’t marred by a relatively simple feature breaking.

@Amuka

The eastern reaches intuition also heavily overlaps with monos island in terms of detecting your mouse (I need to keep moving my mouse downward and back up to even look at what it says)

added

@Amuka

also miniboss enemies just do not respawn at their chosen island location if someone just ran past or they were hit without being killed (if someone aggroes them and sailed off, they could be in the sea but not even be in a boat)

I just tested and this is actually gamebreaking holy they could just get lost in the middle of nowhere (added)

@Awesome_Wafflez

Another thing I find annoying/inconvenient and would add to the “should probably be addressed” list is how you MUST be in a party to buff others with enchantment/rally banner or give them positive potion effects, I wish you could just buff/support anybody who breathes if you’re not in a party at all

I suspect the reasoning for this is because they were afraid of people accidentally buffing their enemies in PvP

@Awesome_Wafflez

Oh yeah, and add forts not showing their hp bar at all sometimes

lowkey forgot about this because I haven’t raided one in forever (added)

@Nuclearman7

There is no way im the only one who has noticed that messenger birds can significantly slow your ship down right? Didnt see anyone mention it here yet. I absolutely hate it

added, this has been bugging me so much but i somehow forgot

btw if you raise the sails while holding S you’ll come to an instant stop so the bird can catch up to you, then once it’s gone you can just start sailing again and if you’re quick enough you should get your velocity back afterwards

[Awesome_Wafflez]

@Ihateitwhenioof

I suspect the reasoning for this is because they were afraid of people accidentally buffing their enemies in PvP

I think they should make it a setting then at least

@Ihateitwhenioof

If you try to place a structure on a clan base, but then you get the “Structure is Obstructed” message, the Build Tool acts like the Drachma from the treasury was still spent on it anyway and so every time you fail to place it restricts your spending further (eventually it just starts saying “not enough drachma in treasury”) (evidence)

Bro.. I’ve been so LOST on why it says that when I still have like 123k left in the bank. Holy, that’s actually so dumb and annoying I thought it was just me, I guess at least ik how to stop it

[Amuka]

@Ihateitwhenioof

Spirit minibosses

it applies to all minibosses

once found evander on makironos island with like 500 health or so health idk i just killed him in like 2 hits when my build on that file only does 200-300 dmg for most attacks. and it was also a thing pre full release (once found them deep in the ground of shell island near the lowest level of the mines, legit only found him cause he did the ? thing telling me where he was)
