Hello Kingbarboza,

I don't know your email and you didn't open a topic on the forum, so here we go about your Bug Reports.

I saw the errors in the official game, but unfortunately I had already updated my development version so I couldn't replay your matches in it and thus I couldn't debug the issues.

If it happens again with today's update (or a future one), please send me another Bug Report.


>> weird lob drop shot thing happens when slicing sometimes

It's indeed weird.


>> why is this super long prep drop shot like a lob??

This one I might be able to reproduce by myself, but if it happens again to you, please send me a report again. (my guess is that it's linked to doing a very cross-court drop shot from around the service line)


>> weird drop shot lob when i tried to hit a normal slice down the line

This one is super weird : 47km/h slice ending in the net..!


Note : if you don't write anything in your reports, I cannot check anything.

Thanks Manu,

Will let you know/report if these issues happen again. Nice update btw, should really help on clay.

I notice the weird lob slice drop shot thing happens more often on the backhand side, and when I'm on the run. Sometimes it's purely random.

My email is <edited away by manutoo>@gmail.com.

Hey Manu,

Just realised this wan't a PM so thanks for editing my email away lol.

I managed to recreate this weird drop shot lob bug already in warm up, just reported it in game.

Yeah that slice thing has been hapening since last year i dont remember the exact month but one update introduce it by accident, it almost always happen but i always forgot to send the bug report, thanks barboza for sending it, I can confirm that the bug happens to everyone and quite often (1 every set or 2 sets at most)

Edit.: Talking about that slice down the line that goes flying up and lands into the net and sometimes passes and lands centemiters from the net, but this happens like 1 out of 5 times the bug happens.

KINGBARBOZA,
I got your 3 Bug Reports about the slice ending in the net with super low speed, no need to send me more of it (one is usually enough ).
I'll try to look at it on Monday, if nothing else pops up by then.

[KINGBARBOZA]

Sorry, I sent another one or two before seeing your latest response

KINGBARBOZA,
of course, many other things popped up, so I could check only this morning : I found & fixed the issue leading to the super slow slice for the next update, thanks to your report !

long green strange

This was likely the same reason than most surprising green errors : the acceleration could lose too much top spin ; I changed a bit the system for the next update so the max spin loss will be lower, making this kind of green errors impossible (hopefully).

weird 360 movement bug happening since last update, stops me from being able to hit the ball at the end of this rally

Fixed too => topic5-36844.php .

Hey Manu,
Did some light testing of the update in warmup. Acceleration green errors seem much better now, but I think there's a strange new bug where sometimes slices can just fly long now? Reported a couple.

[manutoo]

It should be fixed with the last night update...

Green error from a pretty standard shot imo, maybe my fault for this one but still shouldn't happen I believe especially on match point...

Your aiming zone was a bit outside of the lane line and the ball landed in that bit, so yes, ideally, you should have aimed 20~30cm further from the line.

Horrible green error on match point: Very long preperation time and it's still into the net. I lost the match after this... This is another reason I don't think the acceleration on slices should be nerfed as this sort of thing already happens a lot.

The ball was 49cm high (ie: knee level), and you went down the line on your backhand. It is an extremely difficult shot in real life, with a high chance of ending in the net. Try to take the ball higher, around your hip at the minimum, when you do an acceleration.

Your last Bug Report :

ball thrower court is black?

Apparently, the game crashed on loading, but I tried to reproduce the issue with your settings and it worked fine, so I have no idea what happened exactly...

EDIT:
I found the way to reproduce the crash : do a warm-up and then a ball thrower ; so I could fix the bug !
