Fishing Bug
I'm a level 5 fisher and this morning i tried fishing and every single time i tried to fish it just said Line Snapped. I tried logging out and then tried on a different character and found that that character could fish fine. I'm practically broke now since i mainly fish as my job.
Heres a screenshot:

Re: Fishing Bug
We changed fishing so you couldn't use it as your primary source of income to make millions (hello, Draco, Marius, Chang Lao, etc), but that may have screwed over everyone who just got to level 5. Previously there was a hidden level 6 characteristic that gave you more fish at a higher weight once you went past a certain point at level 5. This will probably be our new cutoff point, at about 700 fish total, I'd think.

Jonathan_Ashley: all of those cavemen were abducted by advanced aliens and shown the wheel but at different times and are all trying to hide that they were anally probed

Re: Fishing Bug
So it looks like fishing is going to be strictly a newbie springboard of sorts?

Kevin said it himself
People would just fish all day and not do anything "job" related. And they would come out ahead in the end.I'm practically broke now since i mainly fish as my job.

Re: Fishing Bug
I just thought the fish were pissed off from all the poopsockers killing their friends...
Re: Fishing Bug
Make the cooldown times increase as the level increases. 5 additional minutes per level until the cooldown time is 20 minutes for lvl 5. That way, you keep the poopsockers from becoming millionaires solely from fishing while not pissing off the people who worked up to lvl 5, only to find out they can't fish anymore.Kevin Douse wrote:Dang.

Re: Fishing Bug
Just make it so it works like /n. After you attain a certain overall level, you can't fish any more, just like you can't talk in /n.

this would make sense if your were forced to level and it had any real advantagesBrad_Richie wrote:

Re: Fishing Bug
Ya, you're right. I was assuming that people wouldn't try to stay at a low level to /fish, but when you think it over, thats exactly what most trolls would do anyways.HomelessFriend wrote:this would make sense if your where forced to level and it had any real advantagesBrad_Richie wrote:

Re: Fishing Bug
I say keep fishing exactly the way it is and there will be no problems.
Here in this hopeless fucking hole we call LA
The only way to fix it is to flush it all away
Any fucking time. Any fucking day
Learn to swim. I'll see you down in Arizona bay

Re: Fishing Bug
That's why Draco made 1mil within the first week or so? That's from fishing and dropcaring all day. If you made more then that by actually PLAYING THE GAME then fine, but otherwise, leave it like that.Bonez wrote:I say keep fishing exactly the way it is and there will be no problems.

Re: Fishing Bug
don't you think it'd be more appropriate to put in a message like "No more fishes for you, now fuck off" instead of just making it look like a bug?

Re: Fishing Bug
It was changed a few days after this was posted. Also it was never impossible to fish, it just took more time....like real fishing. So out of 3-4 hours of fishing you might of came away with 2-3 fish. People being the poopsockers they were made fish macros that would spam the /fish command 1000's of times a minute until they got something.Clockarchist wrote:don't you think it'd be more appropriate to put in a message like "No more fishes for you, now fuck off" instead of just making it look like a bug?

Re: Fishing Bug
Except it's autohotkey, simple binds not scripts, and is widely accepted by all SA:MP servers, including this one.
Also, it was impossible to fish once you hit level 6 regardless of how many times you spammed /fish.

Uh yeah, AHK doesn't integrate itself into any other program, game or otherwise; it uses simple scripts.Harabec Weathers wrote:Except it's autohotkey, simple binds not scripts, and is widely accepted by all SA:MP servers, including this one.
