Game Engine

This thread is for anything that does not belong elsewhere. Bugs that only affect one monster/quest/piece of equipment do NOT belong here.

Not Bugs:

Some monsters drain MP's instead of HP's

Monsters try to block attacks that would heal them.

There is a missing letter "s" for "Armors" in the battle menu.

Creatures can be healed farther than their original HP.

In-game shops reequip your default equipment after you buy/sell items.

Not being able to see things in new quests - if you see "Line 1 Line 2 Line 3 etc" in an NPCs speech bubble at a new quest, make sure you have the latest version of flash, and clear your cache.

Dracomancer Level lost during battle with Bradakhan. One of his attacks drained your dracomancer levels. If you lost, you have to retrain (even if you won a later battle). If you won the battle where he drained the levels, the levels were returned automatically.

If you complete a battle too quickly, it will take a moment for the results to save. This is deliberate.

AdventureQuest requires Flash 9 or higher. If you are using a previous version of Flash, some things will not work.

If your graphics quality is randomly changing, you have the Auto Graphics Speed Adjust setting checked.

Known Bugs:

Damage icon does not always appear when getting hit or hitting the monster. This is often caused when performing multiple attacks.

Clicking the browser "Back" button exits the game.

The text size of the Damage Icons for some monsters only holds 2 digits.

Some monsters have the old damage icon flash up before the new icon appears (sometimes in a different place)

Note the below are not game engine bugs but are mentioned here to avoid confusion. Bugs like this belong in the armor thread.

Some armours show the default head for your character when equipped (eg temp Ice Dragon Rider)

If you die in battle with the Black Dragon Rider armour equipped, you reappear headless.

Some armours (Werebunny Armour for example) causing the default sword/shield to appear when using a potion. Re-equip the sword/shield, or change armours, otherwise the game will freeze. This is an ARMOUR problem, not a game-engine problem.

Before posting in these threads:

1) CHECK if the bug has already been reported, if it has your "Me too!" post is unnecessary. This means that you need to check the first post in the thread AND the last few posts in the thread, which may not yet have been confirmed or added to the first post. If you are providing additional information, or a way to work around the bug, please post.
2) Do not respond with "That's not a bug" posts. AKs are welcome to edit such things in to the post though. You may however respond if you have a way to solve the bug, such posts are welcome.
3) No pictures! Links to pictures should be used instead. Also please do not use Bitmaps for the pictures. Convert it to a more space efficient type, such as JPEG or png.
4) If your bug is fixed please delete your post.
5) Make sure you're posting in the right thread.
6) Please include ALL of the information in the template in the first post! It may not seem necessary, but these little details often allow the bug to be found.
7) If your post mysteriously disappears, it was probably deleted for violating one of these rules. Rest assured that it WAS seen, and was not a necessary post.

It's completely random and does NOT depend on what equipment you are equipping? That is *probably* a connection problem - that will happen any time you lose connection to the server while you are asking for information. Are you on a slow or unreliable network connection? ~Aelthai

I'm not sure if this belongs here, pls forgive me.

Type of bug : Gold disappeared

Bug details: I logged in and found that i have about 2mil gold than what i'm supposed to have.

Before bug occurred: There doesn't seem to be anything wrong.

After bug: I had 2mil gold less!

Item Bugged: Gold
Other Equipment: None

You can check the game system and see that i did not lie and please check why i have 2mil gold less. It really took me a long time to save up to that amount. Thanks Alot.

We do not track Gold; however, your character looks relatively normal for a character of your level. If you are confident you do not have as much as you used to, I recommend checking that your email address is correct and then changing your password. ~Aelthai

Type of bug: Potions, health, and MP mysteriously replenishing.
Bug details: I reloaded the game with 30 MP potions and >20 HP potions and almost no health and mana, because my browser was acting funny. Logging back in, I found that I had 30 MP potions and 30 HP potions.
Before bug occurred: I was fighting in the Void for the Restoration Quest. I made it through two battles, fled from the third, when my browser began acting up, and the game froze while loading Battleon. I cleared my cache, then restarted the browser.
During Bug: I logged back into my account, and found my health and MP back to maximum, along with my potions counts.
After bug: Gameplay resumed as normal.

Item Bugged: Potions/Health

Are you sure you didn't have 30 of each when you started the combat that made you reload? Until you complete a combat, changes in your potion count are not saved. ~Aelthai

I had 30 of each at the beginning of the battle, and used most of my HP potions during the battle. I hit the retreat option, and the "You flee from battle!" scroll came up fine. I hit the "Next" button when it appeared, and the game froze up after that.

EDIT: Potion Count is only saved to the database when you WIN a battle.

Type of bug: glitch

Bug details: sometimes on a lucky strike I deal only 10 damage total even though the weapon's base damage is 10 and the monster's modifier is >100%

Screenshot link: happens too infrequently to screenshot in time

Did you log out and log back in? yes

Browser Info: Firefox 3
Flash version: Flash 9.151
Operating System: Windows Vista 32 bit

UPDATE: hasn't happened since last night but sometimes I deal 13 total damage instead. I forgot to take a screenshot.

If you find a situation that is flatly impossible, please report it. Otherwise, it sounds like you are being unlucky ~Aelthai

it is impossible even if monster modifier was 100% on a lucky strike the min damage is 20 for a weapon with 10 base damage when the character has 20 luck according to the luck/2 formula for extra damage given by a lucky strike

A lucky Strike can add anywhere from 0 to LUK/2 damage - stat damage is always random. ~Aelthai

Bug details: Game freeze (loading screen).
Before bug occurred: Just completed my RA battle.

During Bug: I went for another battle on RA (the battle monster button), everything loads fine except for "background".

After bug: Can't do anything. I'm just stuck waiting for it to load but it never did. I just had to refresh the page.

Screenshot link: http://img231.imageshack.us/my.php?image=aqbugxw5.png

Did you log out and log back in?: Yea.
Did you clear cache?: No.
Did the bug happen again?: It happens again, but not after a long while. It's like after every 50 battle (or less) and it happen. And it only happen on RA only. Not on quest. Seems like there's a broken background loader behind.

here it is.....4 times in the past 24 hours the free server has "frozen" in the loading background while using the battle monsters quest causing me to have to close the browser and re-log in.

I'm using the latest version of FireFox and below is the screen cap I'm sick of looking at

[img=http://img300.imageshack.us/img300/9884/loadingbackgroundly5.th.jpg]

I've dumped my cache and have the latest updates for my flash player........as this hasn't happened in the past could it be tied into the new game update???

Type of bug: Glitch
Bug details: If a monster is frozen, and nerfed while being frozen, the nerf to fire resistance disappears when the monster is unfrozen
Before bug occurred: Happened while fighting UAD and Elite Zard X3
During Bug: Used EIK to freeze and nerfkitten nerfed while frozen. When unfrozen the nerf to fire res went back to it's original.
After bug: Gameplay resumed as normal.

Known, this isn't considered a bug. The Nerfkitten nerfs the current resistance, not the monster's basic resistance. This may - or may not - change when it is moved inside the Status System. ~Aelthai

I am not sure what's causing the missing background problem.
I have checked to make sure all the monsters have backgrounds assigned.

One of the background files may have gotten corrupted.
I wish I could tell which one is failing to load.

Aelthai,
Were you able to replicate the background not loading problem with the cemetery background?

Yagno did (he got there shortly before I did - by the time I checked, it had been replaced), and the background has been temporarily replaced with one that works - I've checked it, and it's good for now. Or was when I checked, right after it was replaced. I'm trying to figure out if there's another, because there are reports of background loading failures from after it was replaced. As best I can tell, all of the backgrounds exist.

The background loading problem is still happening.

For what its worth, I'm a level 103 playing RA, so out of all the possible backgrounds there, its one of them - and its not any of the Paxia backgrounds.

Not quite sure how to report this, but here goes...

Has this bug been reported before? Don't think so

Type of bug: Lucky Strike calculation

Bug details: Battling a Dire Shade Dweezel and he got a "lucky strike" four different times with a luck of -24

Before bug occurred: Nerfed by Nerfkitten (L90) four times

During Bug: Had clovers next to element (I guess that's what indicates lucky strike)

After bug: Did 51 damage the second time with melee attack and 19 with magic

Item Bugged: No

I suppose this makes sense in the strict sense of "does not happen when Luck is 0." His Luck WASN'T 0, but....

EDIT: RE: next post

I assumed this was the case, but it will still give a positive bonus to monsters with higher STR and INT stats. Oh well, I guess I'll dump that 5 pts I was going to save for extra END into my LUK now.

Positive bonus? They don't get anything above what they would otherwise get. The Stat bonus on a Melee attack when a Lucky Strike occurs is STR/8 + LUK/2. Since LUK is negative, they have a lower possible stat bonus. ~Aelthai

RE: Consider Kel-Al Sr. He has 350 strength and 0 Luck. Without nerfing he would get NO lucky strikes. After 4 nerf kitten strikes he'd become 326 Strength with -24 Luck. Now he can have lucky strikes since his luck is no longer 0. With that formula he'll get 326/8 + -24/2 = 28 damage bonus. That's what I mean by positive bonus; the fact that he normally doesn't have lucky strikes, but gets a damage increase with negative luck. I guess at this point it becomes a game balance issue though.

Er, no, it's a misunderstanding.
350 STR and no LUK means that he gets 350/8 on all attacks.
After nerfing, he gets 326/8 on non "lucky" attacks and 326/8 - 24/2 on "lucky" attacks - he does LESS damage if he gets "lucky" than if he doesn't. That's not a positive bonus from LUK. ~Aelthai

Monsters can have a lucky strike with negative luck, it's an (un)lucky strike and does lower damage than normal.

I had the not loading background a few times to.
And on 3 different characters when doing RA.
So at least yesterday evening (Belgium time) it was still there.

I can easily believe it's there, I'm simply having trouble figuring out which background it could be. Is anyone running into it in a quest?

It seems Captain Rhubarb hunted it down. Backgrounds should be loading now! ~Aelthai

I think you're playing AQWorlds, not AQ? You're actually on the wrong set of Bugs pages.

Hi guys, just wondering if you could help me with a bug I encountered to do with my experience.
I just levelled to level 81 and my EXP went down to 0, I can still get EXP but I have like 247k experience till next level. Can someone please suggest what I should do.

The XP displayed is always "XP since last level". It gets reset to 0 every time you level.
The formula for XP required to level is: If level =/< 102: E = [110*(1.1^I)]

Ok thanks alot, I forgot about that, I hadnt played for 80 days. Now its all coming back to me, cheers.
This means that to go from Level 81 to Level 82 costs 247,856 XP.
The numbers you are reporting seem correct. ~Aelthai
