Weird glowing shifting wall bug

setsk0n · March 16, 2016, 5:50pm

I got this weird bug that highlights a wall, and it shifts depending on the angle you’re viewing it from.

Not sure how to recreate it exactly. The last thing I was doing was making windows and this happened.

Edit: I suddenly got an error message

release-529 (x64)

hey there @setsk0n,

funny enough, @sdee actually ran into this problem last night (tuesday) during the stream…

also, what version of the game are you using?

setsk0n · March 16, 2016, 5:54pm

I’m using the latest version. A15 release-529.

sdee · March 16, 2016, 5:57pm

@not_owen_wilson, another weird building bug for you! This was weird; it puts a clone of the wall in the back of the structure.

Summary:
When designing a home sometimes I get the following

As you can see from the image above, there is suddenly an extra 2 walls added to the build. They can not be removed and remain on the map even if you delete the blueprint you’re working on.

I have had this in multiple new games now. Happens with already designed homes as with newly designed homes. The game basically becomes unplayable due to it always bugging anything you wanna place there

hey there @Doc_Brano,

just merged your post over here as they are the same error and bug

one thing i’m curious about was your thread title “strange building crash”, did/ does your game actually crash after you get the error?

Doc_Brano · March 16, 2016, 6:44pm

@8BitCrab Well the building part of the game crashes. The villagers keep walking, messages keep popping up but they won´t build it and you can´t build anything with it. Must say it is not moving or changing position like the original poster mentioned. but seeing i did not consider this a building bug or anything, just thought hmmm building part crashes.

8BitCrab · March 16, 2016, 6:48pm

alright, generally when we say “crash” we are referring to the entire game actually quitting/closing, not just part of the game bugging out and stopping working.

kinda butchered that explanation, probably need some more coffee…

Doc_Brano · March 16, 2016, 6:51pm

will do my best to make the game crash next time will make a video of it

8BitCrab · March 16, 2016, 6:59pm

we don’t actually want the game to crash, i was just trying to point out the difference between a bug and a crash.

Pfauenauge · March 16, 2016, 7:57pm

Same here

Steam latest A15 release-529.

Edit: After reloading the Game the ghost walls vanished…

Doc_Brano · March 16, 2016, 8:37pm

I did notice that when you save a build with the ghost wall on it, it saves the build with out the ghost wall. Also noticed that when it occures, it will occure on all buildings at the same time. Was pretty funny seeing 4 buildings with the same ghost wall

Geokhan · March 16, 2016, 10:41pm

Alpha 15, 529
I wish I had taken a screenshot, but I also had this to occur while designing a building. I quickly reloaded and it was gone.

Ryvucz · March 17, 2016, 1:06am

I have created a YouTube video to show the steps on how to recreate this bug, along with the errors that pop-up during it.

8BitCrab · March 17, 2016, 12:49am

hey there @Ryvucz, welcome to the discourse

thanks for the report and for the clear repro steps with the video.

from what i can tell the bug in your video is this one,

http://discourse.stonehearth.net/t/weird-glowing-shifting-wall-bug/20816

would you be able to confirm that?

Ryvucz · March 17, 2016, 1:04am

Thanks! That definitely looks like the same error.

8BitCrab · March 17, 2016, 1:07am

alright, i just merged it over here with the other report, that way we dont end up with 10 different threads all for the same bug

Kins · March 17, 2016, 7:59am

Have the same Issue in my game.
