Bug that broke the game

Post by Hope » Fri Dec 09, 2016 4:47 pm

I'm not very good with computers, and know absolutely nothing about coding. I am curious why the issue mentioned by voices is an issue now, and not before? Did something change or something trigger a problem?

A lot of things were triggered prior to it crashing.

No idea and I doubt we'll ever get an answer.

According to Flash, the bug has to do with saving rooms flags, which makes me wonder if I broke the game. You see, I tend to be a spam saver so I could have tripped up the bug or maybe I had nothing to do with it.

I have some coding knowledge though not enough to be a professional. Bugs can be hard to spot in a huge program. It's easier to break the code down to smaller pieces for troubleshooting purposes.

In any case, I hope to finish my quest when mud is up again.

I typed the following and the game crashed. Then I stole all the dinosaur eggs.

I knew we shouldn't have followed the white rabbit. From there, it's just a color choice away from pure destruction.

Pretty sure most of us are spam savers. Anyway, different type of saving, so I think that's unrelated.

We'd been having some problems with the flag for years, but I have no idea if that is/was related to the problem.
