I can't login/Cantr doesn't load or the forums. Oh no. No Cantr!
Solution: At about 15:20 (GMT) the server does a backup, and this lasts (about) half an hour - just sit tight.
I see [ship name] undocking everywhere
Description: The same ship will be seen undocking to any characters travelling, no matter where they are in relation to the boat or sea.
Solution: It's a Cantr ghost ship - be afraid!
Or just ignore it - some kinda glitch with docking/undocking procedures, when someone uses the back button and tries to dock again.
Dragging project is at over 100%
Description: On the character list page the percentage complete by the name of a character dragging person or pulling a note, envelope or item displays a value over 100%.
Solution: Cancel project and start again.
I can't pass things whilst travelling on foot
Solution: This isn't a bug. You'll have to wait until you reach your destination.
On the other hand, if you are in a vehicle, you can pass objects to characters walking on the road - just see it as the vehicle being faster, and able to pull-up alongside walking characters.
My building never appeared, and my vehicle is warping
Solution: Don't use HTML, or apostrophes, or hyphens, or anything else but alphanumeric characters (to be on the safe side) when naming buildings or vehicles - or they're likely to get all manner of weird things happening to them... Contact the Programming Department with details of the missing building.
