Don't know if this was supposed to be worked on or not, but the "Can't Right Click" bug is still alive & well. Two out of Five Logins and I could not 'use' anything and had to relog.

The NPC scripting on some new NPCs (havent checked the old ones yet) are messed up.
For example the woman who is being, for lack of a better word, crucified in the Temple of Cleaning Fire, when you talk to her, uses the script of a Twilight Guardian soldier.

I'll second that, tried it with a BT rigger spy and no luck getting the mission when you talk to Mr. Jones. He tells you the description and all that but doesnt give you the actual mission.

Navray for the locations is kinda buggy when your in certain zones.

Mr Jones - Riggers quest - DoY side - Mission 2

Attempt 1 - Got blank screen on talking to the "Machine"
Attempt 2 - Didn't get a misson running from Mr Jones. I talked to him again to get the mission
Attempt 3 - Got a mission timeout after about 5 to 10 mins. (The mission said 3 days, which in NC time or RL time, is not right)
Attempt 4 - Got blank screen on talking to the "Machine"

Attempt 4 - Got blank screen on talking to the "Machine"

After talking to Mr Jones 10 times or so he finally gave me the mission and was able to complete as normal.
But now on the third mission after completing everything and returning to Mr. Jones he says he is going to give me a drone but doesnt. Mr. Jones NPC then despawns right after you finish talking to him. All I have in my inventory afterwards is 2 Normal Drone Construction Sets.

The machine in the machine room tell you it's too busy (when on a high lvl runner/not on mission).

//edit
Seem that the non human/speaking 'NPC' in the runs are using what ever the last run NPC script said. So the machine, rat, snake and dog all tell me that they are very busy.

The "Select Your Character Profession" Screen

When you pick your job and try to scroll down on the info on it, if you leave the 3 pixel scrollbar, it resets to the top. If you reach the bottom, it resets to the top.

It'd be nice if the Newcomers could actually read about their entire profession ;)

If your machine crashes it means your hardware is borked or the operating system is seriously bugged. No application should be able to make a properly functioning machine crash unless there is a bug in the operating system kernel/driver/hardware.

An application might contribute to the crashing by using some resources
extra hard (and neocron uses a lot of memory and cpu), but it's never to blame.

The missions seem to care about you BASE rank, not with imps. And I bet your droner has way more rankraising imps than your tradeskiller does.

well, hegemon, that might be, but with this patch - even when I don't have any active programs running (like internet browswer), I'll have a system crash/bluescreen at least every 15 minutes. That's much more frequent than before this patch. I can hardly think that my system is to blame.

Brammers
29-04-05, 15:49
Ok after talking to a Siygess, who told me the Newbie Quest items are not droppable. (Like normal epic items) If that is the case, that maybe this should be considered as a bug.

The Quad Bike - It is not researchable, but if you blow it up, it doesn't return to the depot. It is destroyed for good.

Apologies for this not being a bug report, but this statement is incorrect. It's quite easy to cobble together a program in C++ that kills the system. Windows' MMU isn't brilliant, so it's quite easy to get badly behaved pointers that corrupt the OS. I should know, I've caused more blue screens with dodgy code in the past than I care to remember.

If you use the NavRay from inside your apt it deactivates. I know this is a long known feature due to where the apts are, but the missions tell you to use it and having it not work will seem a bit crap for a new runner. Either this needs to be altered so it works from within an apt, or change the scripts to tell runners that it only works out side the apts

Shouldn't be hard to make it work inside the apt - Just make it so that all locations point to the apt door (except 'my apartment of course, assuming the apt if the users default').

Well sadly we all know that we can't make KK do anything. I do hope that a PE can use this again. I just hope that since this is so low TL they make it so it takes longer to activate it theen a stealth 1 was.

it would be cool for PE's to have stealth but at the end of the day this stuff is for noobies, either to give them alittle taste of endgame items or give them some help while leveling. this patch was a great leep for the noobie experience IMO.

When you click one of the mission NPC's which spawn the mobs you need to fight, if you die before you complete the mission it is required for you to cancel the mission and start again from the beginning.

took advice from a friend, modified paging file size away from what a certain QA told me, and now it seems that I crash MUCH less often. I'm going to consider modifying it even more, see if that doesn't solve it entirely.

Oh, and more than just spelling, the ion crossbow's mission text is grammatically butchered. It's "You certainly have confidence!" Not "You certainly have great confidentiality!"

"You certainly have confidence!" that is correct, it is dependant upon context. It just means that yu are cocky an confidant... what yur suggesting is that they can keep a secret.

"I'm heavily busy" is also correct, there is no grammatical errors here, its just a more descriptive form of how busy they are,

heavily in an adverb form in this context means - to a great extent.

I guess Neocron pushes your hardware harder than it used to.

Once again. The job of the operating system is (among other things) to compartamentalize failures so that they only affect the failing application, not other applications or the hardware.

So. If your computer crashes it means that the operating system failed for some reason. If an application can make the operating system crash, it's classed as a security problem and usually gets fixed quite quickly (well, everything is relative, Microsoft aren't that fast when it comes to local denial of service).

After many years of debugging weird problems in operating systems I have a list of which things I should suspect in what order. First is memory. Second is overheating of cpu/hostbridge. Third is borked motherboard. Fourth are buggy drivers. Fifth is the power supply. And then we have bugs in the operating system.

And just to add, my cpu overheats sometimes on bad days. Since the last patch it has been overheating much more when playing neocron.

No more pop out LE, drug like a whore, take lvl 35 PK mission, pop LE back in?

please adjust the repair nanites needed to repair gliders. its more expencive to repair them by nanites them on asg.
I wasn't going to bother mentioning this until/unless there are Vehicle Theme Weeks, but so far that's been true of every vehicle I've tested it on. It seems to cost about 2.5 to 3 times as much in nanites to repair a vehicle as it does to repair it at an ASG warp garage. On the other hand, manual repair gives good XP and can be done in the field without returning to a garage, so it may be on purpose.

No, what I wish is that remote repair nanites could be cloned with a recycling tool, or failing that that they were zero weight, because my god do I go through a LOT of them! It reminds me of the bad old days where you couldn't fight 10 mobs without having to go back to the GoGuardian for more ammo.

Ever since patch 131, I've had an odd problem when placing furniture.

The first attempt to place a piece of furniture after any given login, in any apartment other than my initial apartment, fails. Selecting it in the quickbar shows me the 3-D icon, and I can move it around. But it doesn't respond to left clicks at all. Won't rotate, won't place.

If, however, I take any one piece of furniture to my starter apartment, select it, and left click even once to rotate it, I can then place any furniture in any owned apartment to my heart's content. I don't even have to place it in the starter apartment, I just have to have that one left click.

Other Changes and Bugfixes





- Changed Drugs to use Medical Substances in their build lists.
I have personally researched some drugs. They still take chems.

Serumbunderibat (red DEX drug) takes chems. Detrosol Forte (green INT drug) takes chems (strastin). Same for Paratemol Forte.

Oh, and by the way, Bugs Gunny, look at that line. Drugs... Medical Substances.. build lists.

This is EXPRESSLY for buildable drugs, such as Beast. KK has fucked up royally in this area.

Driver Profession Quest - Mission #3 - Mr. Jones does not recognize if you really have the Key or not.

Once you retreive the key from Galahan Spangler, from the looks of everything you're supposed to head to the Construction Facility in PP3 to get the key built...

However you can just go back to Mr. Jones, say you have the key, and he'll give you the NEXT Quad Key anyway. You keep the normal Decoded Blueprint in your inventory which I believe it supposed to go to the Construction Machine.

Prior to patch 131, the Yo's Pawn Shop in Tsunami Sector 07 would bring up an empty vendor script, was obviously broken. But no, that wasn't funny enough. Some GM obviously went through and deleted him so the new one would regenerate.

Now he's a snack vendor.

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot. One other new vendor problem that I found today. At Malstrond factory outpost, the ammo dealer in the back, has a broken script. The one in the front, by the gate, works normally, but this is what the selection of low-tech cannon ammo looks like.
