    Super Buggy or just me?

    Posted this in General Discussion, but perhaps more appropriate here.

    Just running into issues and can't tell if the game is just vague or the content is bugged in the "beta". I scare quote that because it seems this isn't a beta build, but rather the release build coming in 2 days.

    - Rat Cage, Deliver 6t bricks and 7t Steel Beams to Bleakworth's Dreary Clipper.

    What the hell is t here? Tons? I assume that is flavor text for just 7 units (my warehouses that have 70+ of items don't use t to represent tens of units). Either way, 6/7 of brick/steel beams loaded on to a ship and moved to the Prison's ship (which is named Bleakworth's Dreary Clipper) does nothing. Tried trading it to the colony, dropping it in the water in the Clippers circle. What gives?

    - For You, "Collect the gift offered by your resident"

    Clearly bugged, since I can see the group, their balloons, but they are not offering anything. Can't abandon this quest either. No hand drill, and clicking on them only prompts a pop up of conversation (asking if they are to be ignored or commenting on the reason they are gifting). I tried reloading, nothing. I had no problem clicking on elements for other side quests, such as the packs of wandering dogs or your cousins protest.

    I'm really hoping these are user side problems, esp since I can't find any other info about them, but wanted to ask since it was odd to see that frequency right at the start of the campaign.

    Sup, friend.


    These aren't gameplay bugs, and I know exactly what you are expirencing.

    First. The delivery missions. Park your boat next to the object boat. Then click on the objective boat. You should have a prompt in a few seconds asking if you want to deliver the cargo, or whatever. Give it a second. Just be in the yellow cicle.

    Second. The prize is there. ZOOM in right next to the crowd that gave you the mission. Your reward looks like a couple crates, and is sitting in close proximity. Just have a closer look.

    Hope these helped?

    EDIT: The "t" is in fact "tons", or "tonnes". The measurement is unused in the game, as far as I can tell. You guessed right that it just means "units". eg. 10t of wood logs, is 10 wood logs.

    Update

    Right you are on the first note. The crowd was on the street and, after deleting all the surrounding buildings, i found the crates inside (underneath) the market. Question answered!

    On the ship, I'm still leaning towards bugged. As you can see in these screenshots, i have both the goods and am completely inside the circle, and no prompt no matter how long I wait (just left clicked on ship, waited Minute plus).

    I see you still have your ship selected.

    Try deselecting your ship, then click on the Mission Ship, whilst still being in the circle.

    I think that's what I had to do.

    The first screenshot is just to show you I have the goods on ship (with my ship selected).
    In the second screenshot, is that not what selecting the target ship is? Left clicking on them and getting their portrait?

    Im open to suggestion, but still leaning towards "its broke".

    Oh christ, I don't know what I hate more, that the raw clay icon is in squares, or that I was stupid enough to miss that they weren't actually bricks.

    Just completed, and yeah, pop up happened instantly.

    Thank Punisher79x, appreciate you dragging me across the finish line.
