Title: Special Encounter -- Is it a bug?
Post by: gauvaran on January 16, 2013, 03:07:05 pm
I just encountered the bomb shelter.
But maybe it was located on my base, I can not enter it.

I am not sure, because I was afk at that moment, only about 1 minute

When I was back, It said that I encountered SE but nothing more. This is the screen I saw, did not move the mouse.

Is it a bug? Because they said that it will drop me to SE; and I had no xp for this encounter. Then it is not because I did not choose to enter the SE when i was afk.

And is there any kindly GM will give it to me again  :-[

i think that screenshot is not enough proof. gm's probably will say they cant do anything and it can be photoshopped. afaik you cant have encounter on your base/city ground

Yes, but it is all I have. Maybe they can check it with the server log.

After taking screenshot, I try to look for this SE again on that square, and I encountered one in on my base (Strong slaver vs VC Patrols)

This thread is for reporting a potential bug as well as sharing exp with people. If I will not be given this SE, it is still OK.

I've noticed some normal encounters seem to auto-cancel or glitch-out (going from lightning bolt to non-lightning bolt) so your special encounter could be a victim of the same mechanism.

I always thought that this is caused by dissapearing of that encounter. It was an encounter with a player, but he left before you could join and the whole encounter was closed. But i might be wrong. And maybe this wouldnt work for SE anyway.

Well, there are two types of encounter glitches. The first is what you just described with another player and the lightning just keeps flashing. The second is when it says, for example, "You encounter: Molerats" but it lagged or something right as you were about to go into the encounter and it ends up just skipping the Molerats encounter. The latter sounds very similar to topic's problem.
