Remove boats untill the rendering bugs are fixed

[Chasone 0]

We all know boats fail anyways, but it's a real pita in pvp when the enemy get on a boat & you cannot render them to fight. Problem is people know this & use it.

Remove boats till the bugs are fixed !!!!!

[Guest Awesomefusion]

i don't know what you mean by 'USE' this, because it happens reguardless of what you do..

Boats on home don't fail like wild, why should we get punished more for your broken features  :-* :-*

I know - that is why they should be removed. It happens, it's a "function of the game" yadda...yadda.

Remove boats till the bugs are fixed - period 

[Guest Awesomefusion]

+1 then, just didn't want you to make it out like we were exploiting a bug to escape, lol

boats have always been a screwup since they were added, (the thing where you get in and no one is in your local can be annoying in pvp too -.-)

[Gavin 971]

i agree, but only on wild ofcourse, leave them on home.

I think boats should still be ingame so people can still create them and stuff, just remove the embark function until all this crap is sorted.

lol - did not mean to implying anything, just stating a fact -

remove boats (from wild) till all bugs are fixed.

I do agree, remove embarking on wild until a fix can be implemented.

Compile the data into a report , clarify it so that everyone understands the problem, PM me that report and I will get it to Rolf.

When getting into a boat a number of things can happen:

1. it actually works right (about 1% of the time)

2. You embark and there is no boat and you are stuck until you can highlight something to select disembark

3.  You Embark and there is no one in your local

4.  When entering a cave as a passenger it will boot you from the boat but you cant walk around because the game thinks you are still in.  you need the boat to be close to be able to disembark

5.  If you go over the corner of a cave entrance the boat gets stuck, and if you try to get out you die instantly locking all your inventory under the world, and GMs cant get the gear back

6.  You embark in a ship and no one sees that you are in it.  the boat will move like normal to everyone watching, but the riders are hidden from view

7.  Sometimes the boat will speed way up to like 24KM/H and you get booted out

8.  Sometimes a passanger entering a boat will "embark" but the body stays in the same spot as the boat moves away.

it's alse very annoying that the entire world around you gets reloaded when embark/disembark. Depending on your hardware that might lag you out for several seconds. It's ok on my main PC but on my laptop it's unbearable. Same with push/pull.

well.. the model often just doesnt stick with the boat. when i was swimming after Lunn i saw a boat but i saw his model waay behind me. i didnt know which to follow.

later madt and i were near HSB and he sat in a boat sailing around but i saw him standing still near the shore.

When you see other people in boats, it's nearly always this way. It's like the /stuck bugs that happen in PvP, except grossly exaggarated. In PvP you might see people be 1 or 2 tiles off where they actually are, in bad cases 5. With boats this can easily be 10 or 20. And like mentioned this happens nearly every time a boat enters your local without you being around to witness the people getting on board (sometimes even then too).

I will get some screen shots next time & send them to you. That is the best way I know to explain what I see when the rendering issues happen.

How about, instead of removing the boats, make it impossible to drag/control a boat. can't go on it as a passenger either. On wild only of course, since there's no problem on any of the other servers.

Simply removing boats when it's totally not needed, and after all the work that some people put in it, isn't the right thing to do.

But there is a problem on other servers. People have to get in the boat, relog 10 times, spam /stuck and all sorts of things, just to embark a humble boat.

But it's not life threatening, or an imbalance to the main aspect of the server.

We can live with it, because we simply don't care about the bugs, they're only a slight annoyance for home players.

bump - boats just plain fail

Agreed, boat cars, now today it showed our sail boat was going sideways instead of turning. Of course there are the constant problems that involve relogging for one or all parties involved.

[Gavin 971]

+1 bump

[Gavin 971]

Bump, Missed out on 3 kills a moment ago because of positioning bugs and such :\

Yesterday Fogshark was in my local and all I saw was his boat moving and his character was out in the water. This left me having to run to get a target then run back to try and jump in Zarni's boat but I didnt get there in time. I had to run across the map to catch up and got to BB just as JK ran into the gatehouse. Phew *catches breath*  ;D

[Guest pto]

i was zapped around 50 tiles away when disembarking a boat.

and one boat was sailing over land.

[hardy 0]

the other day when i disembarked my boat i turned around to see my boat but god knows where it was. just before i went to bed i had a phone call from a strange man saying he found my boat in jamaica.  ;D

[Guest Posteh]

sorry i came across your number and i thought you'd like it back
