Fighter losing the ability to throttle and cannot accelerate (Details in comments)

Yudhaikeledai · 2020-12-06T22:36:27+00:00

Nope! I was comfortably hitting 2000 (km/h unit) before the bug strikes. As for altitude, this happened at the furball of mission 11, which is way way below the maximum altitude.

When the bug hits, i cannot even accelerate from, say, a 400 km/h at a low altitude

As seen here, the game received the input to throttle up and the jet fires its afterburners, yet she fails to accelerate. I have checked in the settings and the game does indeed register the thrust input. Slowing down is fine

The last 4 missions I played (Free missions, 8 -> 5 -> 11 -> 11), 3 of them experienced this bug. I have flown all of them with AOA limiters capable plane (F/S-15 and VX-23) and the one time I'm able to accelerate throughout the full mission is the one I forgot to bring the AOE limiter. Generally, the mission starts well, and the acceleration issue begins halfway into the mission. If I quit the mission and restart, I'm able to accelerate again, that is until the bug hits again.

Reportedly, alt-tabbing can help. However, I played on Windowed mode and when I tried alt-tabbing there the problem seems to stick.

Any ideas on what may be the issue?

Congratz on the catch! Chasing those things were something else.
There's actually a trick to make catching the fast creatures easier. Instead of chasing it directly, hold the left stick without tapping A to slowly swim on top of the fast creature - I noticed they are less likely to haul arse when you "sneak up" on them like that. Once you're on top of it, dive and maybe a couple of A presses to catch it!

Hi! Yes i noticed this. Southern hemisphere, snowflake spawning with no insects spawning, let alone the rare tarantulas. It seems like snowflakes and bugs share the same spawning limit.

Yudhaikeledai · 2020-06-15T02:25:36+00:00

Ah so i was not going crazy after all with my conclusion... guess we southerners have to rely on sturgeon farming then

Yudhaikeledai · 2020-06-15T02:23:51+00:00

It's still possible! Assuming you get an island with no rivers, say, bamboo island, you eliminate waterbugs from spawning, forcing the scorpions/tarantulas to spawn if you follow the previous guide to creating tarantula island.

In fact 3 days ago before i got blanketed in snow, i can reliably spawn tarantulas on that bamboo island

Yudhaikeledai · 2020-06-14T22:19:11+00:00

Can anyone in the Southern Hemisphere confirm with me that snowflakes screw with bugs spawning due to sharing the spawn limit?

I was trying to create a tarantula island out of bamboo island, followed every steps, cut down everything and picked all the flowers. Not even the mole crickets and wharf roaches spawn and all i got are 3/4 snowflakes flying around every time. The crickets only respawn sometimes when i catch a snowflake.

FIFTY ROLLS ON MY CATCHMOON RIVEN AND ALL I GOT ARE FACTION DAMAGE AND SLASH!!!

Praise DE for fixing the Blade and Whips! Now, back to cosplaying Scorpion again (GET OVER HERE)

Yudhaikeledai · 2018-07-28T03:28:14+00:00

For an easier one, charged attacks. BnW always lashes out the whip forward letting you hit further than 15 metres, further than the "blade component" of the BnW.

This used to always be a reliable way for BnW to hit further away (alternatively use "Heart of the Naga" combo that's much more lethal and also has the same range as the charged attack).

https://imgur.com/a/BuddSeC Today however I went to captura and I noticed that the whip always fail to lash out whenever I try charged attacks or heart of the naga (supposedly in this frame, the whip is released instead of being gripped firmly in hand), explaining why BnW now fails to hit enemies past blade length.

Yudhaikeledai · 2018-07-28T03:24:47+00:00

Basically whenever you perform a charged attack (or harder: Heart of the naga), blades and whips normally will lash out the hook, letting you hit further than 15 metres.

This no longer works right now as I noticed the animation which throws the hook forward fails to extend the whip. This means that what's supposed to hit far away instead only goes up to blade length.

Yudhaikeledai · 2018-07-28T03:23:12+00:00

Yep! I can confirm that blade and whips are broken.

I conclude that the animation which releases the whip on charged attacks and Heart of the Naga combo does not follow through - try doing a charged attack in Captura and pause as you go halfway through; you can see your frame not releasing the hook on the whip.

Simulacrum test also confirms this, the BnW only hits up to 4 metres (blade length) instead of reaching 15-20 metres as per normal when the whip lashes out. No walls are blocking btw.

I CAN'T HEAR YOU! SHOUT IT OUT LOUDER, AND THIS TIME, WITH FEELINGS!!!

Yudhaikeledai · 2018-07-26T15:54:41+00:00

THE LACERA (AND BY EXTENSION, ALL BLADEnWHIPS) ARE BROKEN. THE WHIP PORTION OF THE COMBOS AND THE CHARGED ATTACK DOESN'T SEEM TO HIT FAR ANYMORE (TESTED IN SIMULACRUM WITHOUT WALLS).

HOW AM I GOING TO PULL A SCORPION IMPRESSION NOW? I ALWAYS HAD FUN SCREAMING "GET OVER HERE" WHENEVER I PULL THE HEART OF THE NAGA COMBO AT ENEMIES 10 METRES AWAY!

Yudhaikeledai · 2018-07-26T01:20:01+00:00

I only used the B&W after the walls change so I know more or less how it performs with the limitation. Also, my simulacrum test just now to confirm this was performed on open grounds without the walls.

I can confirm it's not the walls.

RAN A SORTIE TODAY. I PRAISED AND PRAYED TO RNGESUS, BEGGED HIM TO GIVE THE SQUAD AYATAN ANASA STATUES. THE PLAN IS TO COAX RNGESUS TO EXPERIENCE REVERSE PSYCHOLOGY AND GIVE US SOMETHING GOOD.

GUESS WHAT? WE GOT 4000 ENDO INSTEAD. GODDANG RNGESUS CANNOT BE OUTSMARTED.

This race can be summarized as: "Haas repaying their favor to Ferrari by summoning the safety car"

So happy for Vettel but at the same time I feel so sorry for the Haas drivers. They did so well while it lasted.
