trapped in sky-limbo bug & temporary work around
« on: January 25, 2013, 03:02:41 am »
This happened to me 2 days ago and to a society mate today, so it's not an isolated problem.  For me, it happened when I entered storage building in NU, DCd and logged back in. For him, it happened in the same building after he logged out and logged back in later.

The problem manifests as similar to the grey screen with HUD visible, but with the sky showing instead of grey. You can't move and relogging with and without a reboot of comp does not clear it (the way it would a grey screen).  In both cases the only solution was to call a travel bot and rez as a clone (at the cost of a clone).

My best guess is that we both somehow fell through the floor/ground and out of the normal game world, but that's just a guess.

I had this about a week ago. It happened when I was killed NE of Sar near the Sar / Turukhansk server border. But in my case, after I had used Ctrl-d, I revived in NU, this even though I had previously revived in both Sar and Turukhansk to prove my DNA was there.

The devs have just closed my Helpdesk call, saying they could not reproduce it, but have added some extra logging, so if it happens to anyone else, please tell them.

relog/ctrl +d fixes

I'm sorry. I guess I wasn't being clear (still getting used to the terminology). I meant ctrl-D to resurrect  in a new clone.
