Andor's Trail

hi guys... *wave
new to the forum, but already play AT (on and off) since..uhmm..forever

well..i recently changed phone to s3 and when i played AT..i found that at a time when i entered a map..i saw npcs everywhere but then suddenly pufff...they are gone..no npc at all i've experienced this about 3 times, once in the vilegard, once in the wolf cave and once in the gargoyle cave.

is it a bug?



note: i hope you can understand my post since i'm not very good in english...

Welcome to the forums!
That's certainly a bug if all npcs are gone on a map.

Could you please explain when the bug appears?
If you leave the map, and come after three minutes or a rest, does the problem still appear?
Did that happen on both of your phones?

well, it just happened...i don't know what caused it. what i remembered was that the first time this bug occurred was when i was in vilegard, talking to the priest and when i walked out the building, i tried to speak with one of the villager (the dancer lady) and after i spoke to her, the npcs are all gone.

the second time, when i was in the wolf cave, after i slayed all the monsters in the cave and walked to the forest (still in the cave area) and i want to slayed those cute little monsters, suddenly they were gone.

the third time, was pretty much the same with the wolf cave.

nope...it is back to normal.
but if i stay on that map and go to main menu and back again, the npc still missing, or if i go to other map and back again (but not waited for 3 minutes though) they are still gone.

i currently only using my s3... i never experienced this bug with my old one..but it was long time ago since i played AT in my motorola phone.

Thank you for your explanations! I'll bring that up at the project meeting.
It seems always to happen after a combat/conversation interaction.
Thank you for reporting this one! It's great to have such people like you!

you are welcome glad to help

-Are all NPCs missing after the bug? (not just the monsters/beasts)

-When leaving Map A onto Map B it takes 3 minutes for the NPCs to respawn on Map A (time while in menues or battle doesn't coun't)

@pyrizzle..
all the npcs on that map were all missing except the one i've been talking to.

Strange bug. Thanks for your report!
