Failed to buy production.

[TheVic]

Bought production that is not present next time I log in
Bought Elemental. Game slow on end turn, checked game after a while and saw that I didn't produce elemental asnywhere. Game 45774, most likely City Arcadia. And Money do not match, now to little to buy elementals.

Hello Vic,
This is a rare but know bug that the client gets out of sync with the server regarding gold. I.e. the server has the correct amount of gold but in some special cases the client displays the wrong amount. We are still trying to track down why/when this happens.
Do you remember any special actions you might have taken that could affect the gold? Like occupy city, doing some shipconversion, byuing Towers/Heroes etc?

SnotlinG,

I mentioned one case in the language test game.

If you don't buy a hero at the start of your turn but instead buy him mid turn it doesn't update the gold correctly on the client at the time you get the hero.

KGB, I tried to replicate that but without success, so your issue must have been due to something else

[TheVic]

Yes, had bought no hero that turn, but I had bought production in another city that I plundered. That worked fine. Could it have been that the plunder wasn't added correctly? Would seem like the amount missing could be same size as the difference of plunder rate 40% and the expected 60% plunder rate that hero has purcased?

I am investigating the plunder/occupy code.
Do you remember if you lost contact with the server at any time during that turn?
For example at the moment of your attack you might have had to hit F5 to reload the client and was the directly pushed into the battlescreen after the reload?
I am speculating that this might have given you the gold from the conquer twice... (i.e. not the plunder)

[TheVic]

Don't think I reloded during the turn, but I could have, remember it like all went smooth until end turn when client hang.
