BUGS FOR BONES

Heres the scoop:

The original alacrity database tables are very old. So old, they dont convert very well to mode databases. They had a lot of bugs in their definitions, but the former database was very forgiving, and like many things in alacrity resorted to 'this is the probably what you are looking for/trying to do' logic as opposed to 'this is what you are looking for or trying to do'

When we transferred, I decided to flip it live and track down bugs rather than test set live after fixing, b/c there are 150 tables, each having 50-150 columns each, that tracking them down 1 by 1 would have taken months, and even then it would have required a full audit, and probably would have missed many of the esoteric ones to begin with!

Transferring the data to a mode system enforced a lot of error checking on the system that wasnt being done before. While I fixed as much as possible, Alacrity is a large project even by todays standards. So , lets work to squash old bugs and new!

1 Bone shall be rewarded for each bug discovered!
secondary discoveries not yet posted to this thread will be awarded 25,000 alacrity cash
if it is a very esoteric or hard to notice bug, we shall reward more at our discretion.

not a problem at all, this is to be expected. there are many bad tables from the old system. I'll get it fixed asap

Okay... Hate to be a pest. I had two fences break, and when I went to replace them, I got an error code.

Not sure if it has been mentioned, but when you equip a scholar collar on a dog, their eyes change colors. My GSD's went from green to black, and another one when from blue to brown. Once the scholar collar is removed, their eyes go back to normal.

re:hecmom (feed all and grooming) This was a bug. previously the value for mood was defined as a range of -127 to 127. the old database discarded statement when trying to set a value out of range. its a partial fix for now ,but basically, I just increased the range since your mood was 126 , when you used a mood altering item, it threw an error example nailclippers , mood = mood + 5. your mood was 126, therefore mood = 126+5. 131 is greater than 127, and thus threw an error! try your nail clippers and fishoil now, should be solved!

So, When I go to the VIP options and try to use the feed all button for fish oil, I get the error message for value 1 mood. Okay. I understand. Some of the dogs may have their mood higher than others. I just tried to go in individually on a dog with high mood(127), but low health(76) and groom them(nailclippers) but got the same error code. Is this the new metric? or a bug?
