#Kai - Unable to use Text Chat in game
1 messages ยท Page 1 of 1 (latest)
Kai already tried verifying and restarting their game.
@round lynx okay. So just to establish a couple things - did you play before the update and did you have any issues before if you did?
i played before and yes same issue

if you want to hop into the world to see
Okay. Give me a moment to look into some things. It's not an issue I have come across, and I need to check and see what parts/settings in steam may influence them.
It may have something to do with Steam's profanity filter, but it seems unclear as to how to disable it.
i dont think i have that turned on
I think it's on by default. give me a second though. Let me see if I can find out how to turn it off.
Sorry I haven't forgotten about you, I promise.
No worries
okay lol my friend can chat so i went into her setting and copied how hers was set up so im hoping back in now to see if it works
i copied all of her settings and its still coming up blank
i even tried "run as administrator" on the game
Okay - FOUND it. in a likely unlikely location.
Open up your steam and click on your profile name and go to "account details" then "Store Preferences"
In the third section down, named "Community Content Preferences" can you click "Do not filter strong profanity or slurs"
nope just your normal keyboard
so it doesnt work on local either
like i usually play on a gportal server and i just went into a local game and thats not working either
okay... Lets see if clearing the chat cache might help. Go into Steam > Settings > Downloads and click "clear cache" next to "clear download cache" after that head over to C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Local\Steam\htmlcache and delete the folder. Also head over to C:\Users\<YourName>\AppData\Roaming\Steam and look for any chathistory or cached folders as well and remove them.
tried it didnt work.
im gonna try and delete all of my stuff and redownload i guess
its like the only thing i can think of
Yeah. ๐ฆ I'm sorry I am not much more help, but that might be your best bet.
If that doesn't work, I am gonna forward this on to the QA team at Keen and see if they have any idea. Granted they are swamped right now (and it's the middle of the night) so it may be some time before they can get back. but they will most likely have a lot more insight.
really...
There must have been some corruption in the character file that happened. That is crazy, I wouldn't have thought thre was anything text related in the character file.
ooh
Are there any special characters in your character name?
Nope just Kai
hm. yeah that surprises me. @upbeat verge or @hoary flower when you have a moment you may want to take a look at this and see what might be happening.
can you include a zipped copy of your save files in here for the to check out?
sure - do you have cloudsave on or off?
on
i have other characters im trying out
this is my original character
its working
wait, the one that wasn't working is now?
so this is 2 of my characters. the one thats not working doesnt even say joined when i join
So Kai (with 1 i) is the second one i made to level up before we got the barber cause i wanted to change her hair
Kaii (2 i's) was my OG character
ah gotcha. Okay sorry - to get to your save files navigate to ..\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[YourSteamID]\1203620\remote and zip up the entire contents of that folder and you can drag and drop it in here.
one moment
if you open up steam and go to your friends list and hit the + button to add friends, you should have a "friend code" that should be your ID
Sorry - had to confirm that the friend code was the ID ๐
i am now trying to figure out how to zip it lol
slelect all, right click and click "compress"
perfect ๐ okay hopefully they will have some insight.
Sorry I wasn't more help ๐ฆ
its okay!
that was my last ditch effort before having to uninstall
i can just go grind on the new character
not a big deal lol
hey there, we'll have a look at this asap
I have entered the world "Kody x Kai" and was able to chat normally. I was the host in the occasion.
Oh wait nvm, it's Kai with the big K
let me try that
ok, yeah, I can repro with that save
I'll make a ticket
can't guarantee it'll be fixed in an upcoming hotfix, but in a patch in the future for sure
Thank you, Kall!๐
Hello! Thank you for going in and trying it out! Thats the world i made it for. Interesting that it was working for you but not me. All is good I started a new character and Im leveling her up. ๐
Oh, they were able to repeat the issue. They had the wrong character loaded. lol
Oh lol
may i ask something outside of just this issue. its not an issue with anything just a curiosity ๐
Sure
Is that door that goes with the new block the blue and gold one in the game to use for our builds? that you know of? im still a relatively new player so i dont have everything unlocked and i wasnt sure if they added it as well
Are you talking about the door that opens up the night sanctum?
Sorry about the delayed response. went to go eat dinner.
Unfortunately no. I know one person who got it using a cheat engine, but since it's only meant for those doors and not made for us, they still only open at night and always require a spark to open. lol ๐
