For example, when dark comes and they light the fire, if all of them run to the fire at the same time it will become abandoned. If you assign your workers a building task and they all stop that task at the same time, it gets abandoned. If you chop down a tree next to a higher section of land, wood from the tree can spawn up on the higher section of the land where the workers can't reach it. The best solution would still be to just have a link to the official bug report forum though. Stoneheart and minecraft are similar enough that the subreddits purpose should be the same, to get those who enjoy this game to discuss it and share what they've done.īut sure, an official bug report thread is acceptable, wrong, but if it keeps the place clean from reposting bugs then why not. If we look at /r/Minecraft there are less than 10 bug reports in a week, for a subreddit with over 350 000 subscribers, we have 8, and yet to break 1000 subs, yes yes, minecraft is a little bit further in their development but there are plenty of bugs to go around still. where are the threads saying "Hey, that thing with the approval stamp for the carpenter, cool feature, i like that"? They mentioned in their blog that they wanted to postpone the release but one of the reasons they didn't was to hear what we say, what do we say? "it's broken". They have an official bug report forum, if people care enough to submit a report then shouldn't they care enough to submit it to the right place? Right now it's like a mcdonalds squeezed in between two gyms, it shouldn't be here. However at that point i was implying that there are alot of bug reports showing up and it's not what this alpha is for, and that is not what this subreddit is for. Well in my first comment i was being a bit sarcastic, i know i know, internet doesn't get sarcasm.
This way people know what they can now try and what not. List of Known, still unresolved bugs, list of new bugs and list of solved bugs since last build. As far as I know part of the devs or community managers of Stonehearth are active on reddit and in such a stickied note of bugs redditors has found might be very useful to them. I feel that this post has to be kept up to date based on bugs that have been posted in this thread, show links to sites where bugs are kept and also link to the actual Stonehearth Forum. Secondly I don't think having a separate subreddit for bugs is the proper way. The sooner you have bugs on your 'to kill list' the more likely you are to find the error sooner than not when changing parts of the code. But not taking note of them is a waste of time and time is the most expensive resource to a game developer. While I agree the primary objective isn't squashing bugs when it comes to an alpha. It's important to show bugs from day one.
