[candid granite]

so i think activating the dailies has something to do with the issues?

i tried just now and only had one daily active (catch the light), was able to get that and play without issue until i tried going home and activating dailies

almost immediately started getting hit with server errors

[swift finch]

Interesting

[candid granite]

yeah, reloading after that, i'm able to play fine

managed to do days

[swift finch]

Nice, nice

[candid granite]

checking dailies just pops up with this, though

so yeah i think it has something to do with... activating dailies, maybe?

[swift finch]

That

could be it(?), and I don't think I'd be too surprised if that really were the case

But how, TGC-

[candid granite]

truly a TGC moment

but you and lu were able to finish dailies just fine?

[swift finch]

Let alone killing screenshots on Steam again in the process of releasing the update

Lu hopped off after grabbing tickets

Wanted to Genshin

I, however, did every daily

[sly fulcrum]

tbh, having the servers stress out when 50000000 skids hop on at reset to immediately do dailies/candle runs seems somewhat reasonable

but I don't remember it being this bad before

[swift finch]

Strange how it's only kinda happening after this update

again, maybe it's also something to do with grabbing dailies

[candid granite]

yeah

well i think it started breaking for us as soon as it hit reset, right?

[swift finch]

Yeah, once :00 hit

Like pretty much every other day after the update dropped

[candid granite]

but it fixed itself for you (and lu) later, and it's 'fixed' for me unless i interact with the dailies statues

if i do that, i start immediately getting server errors

[swift finch]

I do wonder- this day's reset crash is rather different than the previous days' crashes

[candid granite]

actually, @graceful spoke have you been/can you try hop on sky and interact with the dailies statue (as another australian who plays sk, i'm wondering if it's a regional thing at the moment)

[reef peak]

I tried 2 hours later and It was worse than reset

[candid granite]

huh, seems kinda the same for me? just getting frequent server error messages

[swift finch]

Like, some people were eventually able to get on earlier than others with it still being broken in other parts of the world

[candid granite]

ahh

[swift finch]

And dailies not working for certain people

[graceful spoke]

i have not hopped on sky in at least a month

but i can for a friend

[candid granite]

🫡

[graceful spoke]

[candid granite]

see if you can do stuff before interacting with dailies statue?

[swift finch]

The affects as well during each day

portal losses, cutscene resets/reliving through every cutscene from some seasons

[candid granite]

hm

i've not had to deal with cutscene resets or portal losses at all

just the error messages

[graceful spoke]

my brain has been neverending war brain for the last three weeks

sky does not appeal to that part of my head when its doing its thing

[swift finch]

So yeah, more of Sk
(the second which was done months ago that I don't think I've here shared yet, oops)

(this one being done today )

(Also, they've fixed the server crashes at reset )

Good timezones Sky kids!

Players should now be able to complete Daily Quests without issues and experience fewer server errors when loading into Sky!

The team spent yesterday testing fixes before deploying them to the live game last night. We also adjusted our backend services to better handle peak loads at reset. These should have addressed the issues that were affecting so many of you the past few days.

However, we have seen that there can still be errors—unrelated to Daily Quests or reset—which may cause the dreaded server error message to appear at other times. We’re investigating that as part of our standard bug triage and fix process.

We’re still working on improvements for the future, and as I mentioned yesterday, the team will hold a retrospective session to better understand this week’s incident and how it impacted you all. Once that’s completed, we’ll share a summary as well.

Thank you all for your empathy and feedback while we worked to address these issues. You are very much appreciated, and we look forward to sharing more improvements to Sky in the near future!

as soon as i interacted with the dailies statue i started getting the errors on mobile

[covert mirage]

code skrambler

[sly fulcrum]

@candid granite

[pulsar arch]

what unrelated thing will completely break with the update

[sly fulcrum]

tbh, I'm wondering how many quests there's going to be

'cause it talks about this overarching plot that I'm sure I would recognize if I knew anything about moomin

but then it says "plus more moomin tales" and it's like... guys, you only have so many spirits per season

[pulsar arch]

overarching plot as in 4 seasonal quests

[candid granite]

(i can’t actually see transferred messages on my phone the app is out of date)

[sly fulcrum]

[swift finch]

[candid granite]

ok now that i can actually watch it

excited to see what others they adapt

i haven't read the moomin books for a while, though i do recognise the invisible kid one

although i just assume that it'll be one story per seasonal quest? maybe

[sly fulcrum]

oh what, I didn't realize they changed the map

[covert mirage]

I remember finding this lol

Been there since the map's introduction prob

Grabbing it made a blank text box appear in a weird spot when I tried on Switch like a year ago iirc

[covert mirage]

No idea what any of those mean

[pulsar arch]

moter

[sly fulcrum]

I don't think either of them mean moter

Pretty sure the sparkles are for the Days of Style thing and the compass is for the dailies (since they're in wasteland today)

but I do wonder when it was added... if it was when they revamped the daily system, then I wonder if it only shows up before you complete the dailies

'cause idk how else I would've missed the icons

[pulsar arch]

it's moter

[swift finch]

i'd think probably after that major update where everything broke, but i almost never check the map before completing dailies since i end up doing those quickly and almost always first thing before anything else

So true

[candid granite]

oob fun

[sly fulcrum]

didn't realize this went live today https://thatgamecompany.helpshift.com/hc/en/17-sky-children-of-the-light/faq/1356-patch-notes---october-10-2024---0-27-0-294170-android-huawei-292054-ios-playstation-steam-switch/

[sly fulcrum]

I think it broke in the update before this?

[somber shore]

I was just thinking of you lol

[sly fulcrum]

it worked, then broke, then worked, then broke, and now we're here iirc

[covert mirage]

Sounds about right

my guess is a rideable prop

so that it looks like a broom but it's just normal skovement

that might make sense

[untold peak]

THEY ADDING A BROOM???

20 dolla brom...

Should I......

[rancid locust]

it is

as cool as it looks, 20 whole dollars...

[untold peak]

Broom or pumpkin hair...

Which one should I get

[sly fulcrum]

Your name is literally pumpkin

[untold peak]

Have you seen my profile picture though

Flying in a broom is one of the coolest things ever but is it cooler than having a pumpkin on my head?

These are the questions brought onto me by TGC

One of the biggest dilemmas I've ever faced...

[sly fulcrum]

well, there is always the small pumpkin hat option

[untold peak]

My own son...

[covert mirage]

Oh wait I forget I can check beta

Actually I don't see Mischief there, I might've missed it?

[swift finch]

Update's live

[pulsar arch]

you could do that before, too

but it needed a controller

[swift finch]

[pulsar arch]

move with controller and play the instrument with the keyboard

[swift finch]

Interesting; didn't know that

Ope

[sly fulcrum]

completely random update because this chart has been haunting me forever: I'm about 90% sure you can't actually buy the dresser

but it's really annoying because the only confirmation I can find it people asking in the sky discord and them saying "no, only hackers can use it outside of the nest"

[covert mirage]

Because hardly anyone has it?

It's been awhile but I vaguely remember seeing one placed out in the wild before

But yeah haven't looked into it

Also it definitely feels like an ult gift that they just didn't want to make season-exclusive

[pulsar arch]

it's 175+ AC for that and it takes up a back slot, it's insanely cumbersome to actually buy and use outside of a nest

[sly fulcrum]

I have seen one in a shared space once, but like I say, every time people have asked in the sky-cord the response is that it's hacked

and I've never seen it in the nesting shop rotation

and it seems like that rotation is actually fixed, not random

so yeah, I think that you just can't get it

[candid granite]

nooo they fixed the bench candl bug

(where you could cheese the 20 candl daily bc bench candles would continually go out/relight)

sk said no

[sly fulcrum]

oh yeah, I've had that happen a bunch of times at turtle

I think what's happening is that the animation is getting interrupted when your feet touch the ground

or the top of the clam in this case?

idk, physics are weird

but I always got the idea that's what's happening, since there's a very clear spot in the animation where your skid will jolt down

usually if you come at it from a different angle I find that fixes it

or sometimes it just doesn't seem to work at a given height, so you'll need to switch off of/to the chibi mask

(you can go through aviary's harmony hall to valley's hidden theatre)

[sly fulcrum]

yeah, it's been there since the music area was introduced to aviary

[candid granite]

never noticed

[sly fulcrum]

it's a little weird tbh, since leaving immediately will send you back to aviary

but if you go to the theater first, then you're now stuck in valley

[candid granite]

so true tgc

yeah i noticed, it's definitely the choice ever

also

skompensation for candl bug

[sly fulcrum]

pt. 1 of skompensation*

sounds like there's going to be a larger one once they've fully fixed the issue

[candid granite]

[covert mirage]

Can I log on and pretend I deserved skopensation

[sly fulcrum]

idk, can you?

[candid granite]

nothing’s stopping you

[somber shore]

I am

[candid granite]

it’s 5 free ascended candl

mon dieu…

[covert mirage]

Got skompensated

For all that hard candle running I do

[candid granite]

[candid granite]

return of the server errors

[swift finch]

Oh goody

[candid granite]

are tgc's servers made of tissue paper

[covert mirage]

yes

[candid granite]

so true

[covert mirage]

I think it's impressive how a game that has been going on for this long and has a schedule this consistent still has the same problems years down the line

Like do they even know how their own tech operates or do they exclusively know how to temporarily stop issues

[pulsar arch]

there's a very good chance that the devs that built the system years ago don't work there anymore

and their schedule doesn't give them any time to re-write anything so it's all patches

[covert mirage]

It's just incredible to me that little has changed from when I first played this game over two years ago

Still random server errors, still needing event extensions, still talks of skompensation

[pulsar arch]

[covert mirage]

Still bugs affecting literally core gameplay features that shouldn't even be touched

[pulsar arch]

they haven't taken any time to fix anything so it's not really surprising

[covert mirage]

That fact is surprising

That they haven't taken the time still

[pulsar arch]

the team is too small to put out content at the pace they've set up expectations for while also doing backend maintenance

even an A/B team working on seasons that only gives 3-4 months for each

and then they need to fit sweeping back/front end changes if they're going to rewrite major parts of the codebase

the game is in massive need of a 'season of spring cleaning' where they don't have new content and instead work on fixing existing stuff

[covert mirage]

I feel like atp it'd be worth the long term investment to just punt a season

Yeah

Like what's the reasoning for them not doing that

[pulsar arch]

valve has done multiple of those for their games over the years, dota had a few where they asked the community to submit bugs and then had a huge patch where they fixed about 100 issues in one

[covert mirage]

Take notes TGC

[pulsar arch]

valve has infinite money so they don't need to run the content treadmill to keep players

[covert mirage]

Remembering how my candle run route involved several clips just to avoid spots that would guarantee everyone

[pulsar arch]

[covert mirage]

I feel like even small fixes like that over time would be worth it
Because no, players should not need to memorize what places they can't go because of bugs for years and years

Fix a single transition in an update I don't care, just actually change something

[pulsar arch]

and now there's some random candles on a map elsewhere that don't give wax

[covert mirage]

And then they skompensate

[pulsar arch]

[sly fulcrum]

I mean, if that's all you want then I have good news for this most recent update

[sly fulcrum]

tbh, I haven't actually had this happen in a long time

closest is the wind paths entrance to the cave of prophecies that really likes to break your handhold

all the other clips on my route are just to go faster/skip cutscenes

[pulsar arch]

it was at least year or so where multiple map transitions in prairie would just softlock the game to a white screen about a third of the time

if you'd go through in a group you were basically guaranteed that someone would drop out

[sly fulcrum]

oh yeah, I forget if the transition from butterfly fields to prairie cave actually got fixed

it seemed like it was, and then it broke again

but I think it is actually fixed if you walk through it instead of flying???

[pulsar arch]

and how freaking long the candle bug existed for

[sly fulcrum]

thankfully that at least has been fixed

[pulsar arch]

I went to their known issues

The team is investigating ongoing issues at the Ancestor’s Table in the Elevated Clearing where, when a Spirit serves Light treats, the treats sometimes move out of reach and cannot be burned.

???? STILL ????

[sly fulcrum]

Oh yeah, have you been to grandma recently?

[pulsar arch]

I haven't played sky at all

[sly fulcrum]

They finally actually disabled shared spaces entirely there

so now people have gone back to doing it manually

or at least setting up torches manually

[pulsar arch]

just that there's still bugs where you can't light some of them...still?

I guess at least they aren't flying off into space but like

how did THAT happen at all in the first place

[covert mirage]

Does sitting at temples not have a high chance to do it anymore

[sly fulcrum]

I can't remember the last time I've sat at a temple during a candle run

I guess if I forget to switch to chibi before running forest, but then there's shared spaces that let you clip through the wall anyways

though I also don't remember that happening recently, so maybe yes?

[candid granite]

sky: server errors of the light

[swift finch]

Yeah. This still happens

Probably the most common way to even get the error message, lol

[swift finch]

Yeah, this pretty much

It's been happening a little less in my experience, but it's still not entirely less than the probability of it happening when going to Valley's citadel from the ice rink

Or Bird's Nest to the Village Islands

Actually, no, Bird's Nest to the Village Islands has become a bit more common

As for bugs that's existed a long time, the new player/moth bug has now been around for a whole year, I think (at least that's when I started seeing that happen, and I started months prior to December)

It was even mentioned in one of the patch notes earlier this year that they fixed or at least said it was something that they knew

[pulsar arch]

that someone shows up as having no customization items?

[swift finch]

Yeah, just a default moth

[pulsar arch]

making sure that's the bug you meant, it's been at least a year

[swift finch]

Right, 'twas around the same time they borked the camera/screenshots feature for most PC players with NVIDIA

Managed to do it twice, lol

[pulsar arch]

frick u @covert mirage

[swift finch]

Wouldn't be surprised if it happened again

[covert mirage]

Other than info about the next event(s), the biggest update I see is the wind path transitions maybe being fixed??????

The wording on that patch note is strange though, so I might be misinterpreting

Fixed an issue where handholding a friend prevented a player from leaving the Windpaths via tunnels to other levels.

[swift finch]

i'm certain that's what that means, but i kind of wonder if it'll actually be fixed

13th star has gotta be soon right

[somber shore]

Is 250 the next

[pulsar arch]

[swift finch]

Current max I can get is around 207/208

[covert mirage]

I'm probably 230 something I think

[reef peak]

Nerd

[covert mirage]

Imagine not having 12 stars smh

[pulsar arch]

right

I'm probably around 225 then

[covert mirage]

If you've been getting TS' I've missed then you're probably higher

I should run to find out

[pulsar arch]

[covert mirage]

Eden + WL after however long

I'll definitely forget a bunch of locations

[reef peak]

HEY

[covert mirage]

Do any of you still regularly schedule Eden runs

[sly fulcrum]

@swift finch has been going pretty regularly

[swift finch]

Yer

A good lot of the time, I'll be with others every Saturday or Friday, but other times, I'll go alone

Granted, my last run was before this month, but yeah

If anyone's wanting to do a run so they don't want to go solo, I'm down, lol

[somber shore]

huh, they announced they're doing server maintainence today... 8 minutes before it started

Wonder what was so urgent

[somber shore]

skecurity flaw (idk)

[sly fulcrum]

tbh, it's either that or it's to do with the database issues they posted about earlier

or both

[pulsar arch]

seems legit

[sly fulcrum]

oh huh, I guess they pushed it back since I looked at the message

Starts in 1h

[pulsar arch]

it's on maint now
