Ghost Ships - Bug?

Postby Argo » Tue Dec 20, 2022 8:10 am

Any ideas what may be going on here?

1, Clearly, I have 5 ships in a fleet in St. Martins.
Image
Why does it not say the fleet is 'Available"?

2. Click to the St Martins' plunder-board - there's Teach with his fancy SOTLs .. :D
Image

3. I click 'Assault" -
Image

Huh? :o: What be?

4. Rechecking my fleets I find this also:
Image
ShipsGalora also has no sign of being "Avaiabie" ..
All my other ships are either fishing or available.

Do St Martin's and Aiora now have the facility to make ships that enter their harbours invisible and hide them from their captains? :o: (Sounds like a handy new voodoo card :D)

Seriously tho .. does anyone know whats going on here please?

Oh dear.. another fleet has been affected now .. 'FlagonDry"

On the fleets list page it shows this:
Image

Click on it and its no longer 'available'. I checked other fleets not affected and 'available' is written there.

Image oops... seems I cut off the first bit .. ( nvm - a sotl and 2 cutters)

So tried to assault xPro this time
Image
and got the same message as when I tried to assault Teach.

:o:
lol.. Whats happening? :arr

Try sending them to other ports and then back.

ok.
I sent Piecesof8 to Pania instant. On arrival, the fleet is still unavailable.

I sent FlagonDry to Baramas in her natural sail time .. (18mins) so will check back on that one then and post.

Thanks, Dez. :)

Pieces of 8 returned 'instant' to St Ms with no change . It is still unavailable.

I watched the timer run down on FlagonDry to " Approached Port."

Then it say it be FlagonDry "Docking Fleet" and seems the fleet made it to Baramas of its own accord ok but it is now stuck there trying to dock .. for over 5 minutes now lol :o:

EDIT:

Pleased to say FLAGONDRY is now docked and available. Thank you.
Not so, Pieces of 8 which remains unavailable. Will sail her in her own sail time this time and see if that helps.

So what is the cause of this? Why/How would such a thing happen?

This used to happen a lot to fishing fleets.

Do you by chance have fishing routes going on now?

You've actually hit the "Plunder Limit" for the day. Nobody has ever reached such a milestone of number of attacks in 24 hours before, so I believe congratulations are in order. It's totally an intended feature ;)

Yes Feniks .. I have a bunch of fleets fishing -that is pretty normal for me ..

Sending FlagonDry to Baramas I clicked 'new destination' and then she was fishing in Kanoni. Thinking I had probs hit wrong button I recalled her and clicked again. Then she went to Baramas ok but showed as Docking for quite some time ..

Having made certain i just clicked on 'new destination" for Pieces of 8, she also went fishing too??? :o: ..

I recalled her resert her new destination and she has approached port in Pania .. now docking # 01:26 .. and .. its now 1:36 and she is still 'Docking Fleet"
