I Cannot Report (P.C.)

Post by xc92u3 » Wed Feb 14, 2018 3:56 pm

Hello, here is another bad bug I have ran into. I fail to know much about it, but here it is (I already sent a bug report about it):
It seems every MP phrase chat public game I host I cannot report other players who join. I made an attempt once, but when I went into Pack Stats and clicked on the naughty player's wolf name, the report button simply DISAPPEARED. So I kicked the player instead. (He was drowining the pups when we had already crossed the river so he was just doing it for fun and got a load of warnings by me.)
So, name states it: I was on P.C. when it happened.
Please tell me helpful suggestions or whatever, as long as it helps! :D

Just tested and I'm seeing the same issue.

Looks to be a bug with 2.7.3p9; the report button in pack stats displays normally in 2.7.3p8 when the target player to be reported is selected. Definitely worth submitting a bug report if you haven't done so already.
Nothing interesting happens.

Have you diagnosed the trigger, Nightra? Or just an all-time bug, always there, no trigger? Yes, I had already sent a report. Thank you for your help!

I replied to TimberRaven by email, but to clarify: Reporting isn't enabled in phrase chat games (because the chat transcript doesn't allow inappropriate communication). But it is confusing to have the Report button displayed initially, thats an oversight we should fix.

I did just test this in p8 and it works the same way, and also works properly in p9 games with text chat, so if you're seeing a problem, Neamara, could you email me with details?

It's fine to kick someone who is drowning pups.

Rechecking now - these are both private games and I'm positive I set text chat both times, but it's very possible I messed up somewhere along the line.
  • Edit
Ack. I did mess up during multiplayer session configuration! Apologies - disregard my previous post which was indeed misconfigured to phrase chat.

Ooh, seriously? You can't report in phrase chat?? So it's not a bug, then. Hmm.

But I am very ready to report a VEEERRRY specific user and I know her username (it's apparently a girl). And kicking and warning and messaging doesn't seem to work at all. So.... could you add reporting in phrase chat games in an update? Thanks, guys. :P

As it's simply not possible to report people in phrase chat games for now and the original question has been answered, this topic has served its purpose. I'll be locking this.
