post offices - shipment with additional fee

Postby Taki » Mon Jun 27, 2005 1:09 am

I made two shipments like this from BH post office:

ship token playername 50000

after a while i went back to collect the fee... but 'check' only tells me i have no mail or shipments waiting.

I tried with reclaim token with no result (i guess the player got them).

What went wrong? Is the optional fee bugged? Am i just the last victim of a known method to take advantage of nOObs?

Someone please reply.

Thanks

T.

I dont know if this helps or not. When i ship items i use.....ship "item" mosaix. I have yet to have a problem with anyhing poofing. It seems that when you involve coins.....ship "item" mosaix 50k is when there is a problem. Each time, or sometimes when the person is using coin with the shipping transaction the item is gettting messed up.

Would it make sense to disable the ship option temporarily? Or at the least, insert another message that informs people who try to ship that the shipping lanes have been under attack by pirates and that some ships may be lost due to violence.

Could make a quest of it when you find the bug, send some mortals out to slay some pirates :)

Since the base elements of ship are working and the items are going back and forth as intended, disabling the optional fee looks like it will prevent the bug from affecting players.

I'd shipped a steel camail to someone last two weeks with the cost of 20k, and it was find. The post man gave me the cash when I visited him after I was told by the player that the item had been collected :)

I assume you're gonna reimburse the few unlucky ones who lose
their items while helping to debug ship? I hope you find the problem
ship is one of the cooler new features.
