invisible people

rosden · 2018-03-06 01:57:10

Sometimes people are invisible to some other people.
They can play the game and pick up objects.
Kids i think can be fixed by picking them up.
But the player sprite and the players text don't show up.

Can confirm this happened to me as well. Maybe it has something to do with playing for a long time with many items and buildings around because that's when it happened for me. Also restarting seems to fix this, but you can't do that while playing and get back to the same character. I guess a reload ui function would fix this and issues like this.

Can confirm this happened to me as well(2). I was just wandering around and then I heard someone's like walking around me and I saw a flying hatchet, I thought there's a throw button somewhere and someone threw the hatchet, apparently it's another player, but just invisible.

Saw this bug last night after playing a couple hours. Flying babies, invisible crops, items, and carts. Heard walking sounds but didn't see some people. Restarting client brought it back to normal.

Hmm....

Sounds like a bug with the sprite caching.... the game currently waits until all of their sprites are loaded. If just one sprite isn't present, they won't be drawn.

Wondering if, after several hours of playing, your graphics card RAM is getting full of sprites and there simply isn't enough room for more. I'm freeing texture ram constantly, but maybe due to fragmentation or something, it's filing up?

Had this happen today twice. First load in I was an invisible baby to myself but picking me up helped. After maybe 30 minutes, I saw lots of floating hatchets in a well-populated area. No more instances after several hours of play.

I can confirm this. I played this game for several hours - and only recently - this happened. Some players were invisible, so flying objects etc.

This invis. bug also affects objects, not just player characters. Just wanted to point that out.

Can confirm.
1. Invisible people eats, and moving stuff.
2. invisible murders killings.
3. When moms pick up my baby sprite specifically, sometimes they disappear and reappear after the same action is performed.
Not sure who can see me at that point, because my mom clearly sees me.

Maybe the baby glitch is client side but invisible people is definitely a serverside glitch.

This bug just pissed me off.

Was carrying a bow and arrow to protect village, wandered away to put it down and eat. invisible person picked it up and shot me...

or you spawn in invisible or travel a distant to come back to your village and everyone is invisible.

Yes confirm it too, sometimes I see invisible people, and that's even more scary when you see it picking a weapon.

This happened to me last night.

Playing on a Mac.

It happened after I ran very far trying to find another village. I had run for maybe 2 or 3 minutes before I noticed items moving around without seeing the people moving them.

I'm hoping to get a short recordedGame of this bug in action.

If you've got one, please send it to me by email.

Thexus · 2018-03-28 05:08:42

it is just server lag, the people will eventually load after 1-2 mins

jasonrohrer · 2018-03-30 05:45:01

Hmm... not sure that's the case.

I mean, there's certainly server lag, but the client is in charge of loading the sprites and such for the people.

There could be a hiccup on some people's machines that slows down sprite loading for some reason. A person won't be drawn unless all of their sprites have been loaded.

But I'm also guessing it's NOT a loading issue, and there's some other bug that is making people invisible.

I just fixed one of these in v69. But I don't think I've fixed all of them yet.

I'm going to post a bounty for this one soon.
