LEVEL PACT.


Server: Freedom
Zone: Atlas Park
Character name: Robert B.
Time: 9:50pm
Location: Atlas Park
Mission: N/A
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description: I'm in a pact with a toon, we're both online, we level and get the
" You gain 38 experience for your leveling pact. You will not receive experience until your leveling pact catches up with you."

Now as I said we're both the same level? we're in a teamed Duo.

We continue playing for about 10 minutes, same message over and over again, we both visited the trainer, same thing, same message.

Every "arrest" gave the same above message.

The solution seems to be to zone (we started a mish) and then the XP was given. So while it's not game breaking it's annoying (it also lead to leveling when we zoned and not noticing right away)

Day Job buff icons not visible when Hide Autopowers Selected

Feature Name or Description

Server: N/A
Zone: N/A
Character name: N/A
Time: N/A
Location: N/A
Mission: N/A
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description: When Hide Autopowers is selected, the Day Job indicators in the Buff "Tray" notification area are not shown. I usually enable Hide Autopowers on all my characters because otherwise I get a giant display of buffs when teaming, and I usually only want to see the buffs and debuffs that have been added by others. But this makes it difficult to determine if you are in a Day Job logout area without switching in and out of Hide Autopowers mode.

Server: Freedom
Zone: Power of Illusion SG Base
Character name: Blazing Leo
Time: N/A
Location: Wall at 80.3 8.0 -94.0
Mission: N/A
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description: You can "lose" storage items inside a wall and be unable to retrieve them.
Link to Forum Discussions: http://boards.cityofheroes.com/showf...umber=12703463

Steps to reproduce:

1. Enter the SG base editor.
2. Pick any square in the floor, and use the elevation tool to "fill" it, raising it as if it were a wall.
3. Drag any storage item inside the wall. All the way in, embed the storage item inside the raised wall.

Result: you can't lower the wall to access the items you embedded. You also can't move the items you embedded out of the wall. You can use the "Current Room" button to confirm that they're there, but you can't even delete them because they have stuff inside. This leads to being unable to access the stored items, and being unable to delete the room, because you need to delete those storage items, and you can't reach them.

Server: Triumph
Zone: N/A

Server: Virtue
Zone: All
Character name: Cataclysm
Time: Evening
Location: Grandville, RV, SC
Mission:
Mission Contact:
Bug Description:
One of my enhancements (a miracle +end) has 'disappeared' from the slot it was in (health). In PVE, the bonus no longer shows up at all. In PVP in SC, it does not show up. In PVP in RV, the bonus shows up, but no enhancement is visible... I looked at every single slot in my build, and this is a weird one. Felt like I was losing it when I first came across it. Needless to say, I'm not thrilled about being out 100 million inf or so.

Link to Forum Discussions: I don't know if anyone has encountered this one yet.

Feature: Leveling Pact
Location(s) Outbreak, Atlas Park

I made a leveling pact between two characters that were in Outbreak. One was level 2, the other was brand new. The new character did all the missions, received half credit for them, exited Outbreak normally while the other stayed in.

The new character hit 2nd level soon after, but stopped getting ExP, and the Old character was not getting it either, even though the old character was still logged in in Outbreak.

Bug, or expected behaviour? I just wanted to have the first 10th level fire tank in Outbreak. (I know, kind of silly, but I really liked herding the contaminated, helping people get the badge, but kept taking too much damage without the ability to rest.)

Thanks!

Chat box losing focus, or focus being sent to beginning of line after macro.

Server:
Zone:
Character name:
Time:
Location:
Mission:
Mission Contact:
Bug Description: Chat box losing focus, or focus being sent to beginning of line after macro. We use this bind: /bind H "beginchat /send "TE-TEE" {$name, $archetype, $level}: " Formerly hitting this key from outside the box would auto enter the info and place the cursor immediately behind the content entered so one could type and then hit enter. We're pretty sure enter would cause the box to lose focus. Now, sometimes enter causes lose of focus and sometimes it doesnt. The bigger problem is that the bind itself now either causes lose of focus (on the chat box) (regardless of bind lenght) or it causes loss of focus AND positions the cursor to the very front of the line if the bind is used with any more characters than that. It may be sending the cursor to the front of the line anyways and short binds you just instintively click at the end of the inserted line to type. Not sure on that. However, regardless, now after firing this bind you must click in the chat box and if the line is long, reposition your cursor.

Bug 1:
Server: Champion
Zone: Nerva
Character name: Anti-Christ
Time: Between 2am - 3am CST
Location: At respec arbiter
Mission: N/A
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description:
The respec failed 3 times when using the respec arbiter and not /respec. Got the error message "respecfailed". This respec was on my 1st build and with a Patron change. The patrons are different for my second build.. is this the cause maybe? 2 different patrons on 2 different build sets?

Bug 2:
Server: Champion
Zone: N/A
Character name: Rikti Warzone Junkie
Time: All the time
Location: Everywhere
Mission: All of them
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description: Chain Induction "Chain Shock" not working.

Chain Induction will not "Chain Shock" but maybe once or twice in a whole day on my 1st build. This toon was made back when elec/elec first came out (Issue 7?). Since Issue 12 (Yea I know it's not an i13 bug for you flamers out there) it has stopped working. My NEW post-issue12 elec melee brute it works always. The second build set for my pre-12 brute it works. Why would it not work on build 1 but work on build2? I did a respec of build1 and still nothing.

Bug 3:
Server: Champion
Zone: N/A
Character name: Bane Spider Scout
Time: N/A
Location: N/A
Mission: N/A
Mission Contact: N/A
Bug Description: Bane/Crab dual build costume bug.

I have a lvl 50 VEAT (Soldier) where I made build 1 my Bane and build 2 a Crab. The Crab Pack remains permanent in the costume when switching to the Bane. You cannot remove it. I would think the Back pack should remove when going to Bane set.

Bug Description: Type a command to chat (such as /b, /g, /sg, etc) which includes a percentage sign (%) in the command (eg. "/sg Our base is 50% complete" displays as "[Supergroup] Or base is 50%% complete". A minor annoyance but may lead to something more serious with similar conditions. This is also found in Shield Charge's detailed information.

Binds/macros and special chars

Server: Any
Zone: Any
Character name: Any
Time: Any
Location: Any
Mission: Any
Mission Contact:Any
Bug Description: Any bind/macro that contains certain non alpanumeric chars ('<', '>') is behaving incorrectly. A bind that has a beginchat statement and any of the special chars in the string gets the wrong length set so the cursor ends up after the end of the string. For each char the string contains the cursor ends up 3 chars after the end of string.
This can be verified by pressing left arrow x3 for each special char in the beginchat string before the cursor is visible again.

I haven't verified that this problem extends to other non alphanumeric chars but it probably does.
