Okay found part of the problem. NPC stats (most of them I believe) were set to 0 somehow. This also happened with most player characters, too, so be sure to go to your character sheet before doing anything else in game.

I'm loading a backup of the NPC stats now, and looking into how this happened.

I don't think it's fixed yet. He might still be looking into it.

I can still slaughter the things in the maw, too, on low level characters.

No it's not fixed yet. Something personal has come up so I've had to cut my work on it short. Will fix it soon.

Take your time, no rush.

I understand this is still a work in progress. No rush.

However, I'm posting this here because I'd like to, at some point, have the IGC returned to me given he was kicked out because of the bug.

I don't know if this should be posted here or in a new thread since everything got merged and I don't even... However, there is an energy bug linked to this so:

Code: Select all

Bjorn was defeated! Sensing he is outmatched, he slipped away from the battle.
This was against an Ancient Enhanced Skeleton. Considering he's made it up to the high teens floor-wise, on multiple occasions, getting kicked so soon from the labyrinth is most definitely a bug.

What happened: I logged back in, and the Ancient Enhanced Skeleton had spawned in his square. I didn't move him. He had 9-10 energy, so I went for it. That's when he got kicked, and to boot, he now has -2.6 energy...

This could be related to this, the Maw bug, or something else entirely? Either way, I'm not at all happy about losing 50,000 ICG over this.

I've restored the backed up NPC stats. I'll check regularly to make sure this hasn't happened again, and to try to figure out what caused it the first time (I have an idea, and I've taken measures against the glitch happening again, but I'm not 100% sure, so I'll keep checking into it when new information arises).

Bjorn, unfortunately I can't really restore everyone's lost energy and coin due to bugs, as there are so many recently that I'd be spending all of my time restoring $50k there and 1000 lost XP here. Unfortunately my time on Path is very limited right now, so I'm afraid my apology will have to be enough, or everyone will want restored things for every bug, which I can only really do for massive losses or unique items, etc.
