FIXED Unable to place new boat/abandon ship

[Magus Zeal]

So I have been trying to place a ship on my main, Magus. I cannot for the life of me because the game insists I have a boat.

When I try to go to the Sea Market, i used the harbor master:
First i tried the "recall rune" option, which made a key in my pack



When i cast recall on the key:


So option two, i tried clicking "abandon ship"
after 5 min, the harbor master gives an ominous message:

So Dan suggested at this point I try to place my boat anyways - no joy.

Not sure what the issue is. I may have had a few boats out before the limit was put in place maybe? Or maybe the game thinks I have a boat that I in fact do not? Or i have a boat that the harbormaster cannot see?

I'm confuzzled.

It is because the boat is in Felucca.

 

[Dan]

Go to Felucca and try your key.

Alright so Dexter, I deleted his boat but he had a boat there for sure but it would not give a key or abandon ship.

To clarify. It GAVE a key but it did not work. Is there a Fel Sea Market? Maybe i had to use that one?

(Very happy to be able to place a boat now though!!)

Where was the boat actually located? And did you props it to see the owner of the boat? Also, you chose abandon ship, and it took 5 mintues to get that message?

 

[Dexter]

Another thought. Could this boat have been dry docked? I noticed the change to Harbor Master, the method used to find the players boat is incorrect, and could returned a dry docked boat. This would explain why you can't recall or abandon.

The boat was located in Felucca, off the shores of Trinsic.

I used [props and he was the owner. There were only about 40 boats deployed at the time and I simply checked each one.

It took five minutes. The message the harbormaster gives is - your boat will be removed in 5 minutes as well.

 

[Dexter]

Do, you clicked on "Abandon ship", stood there for five minutes, then you got the message?

 

[Dexter]

I dunno, but i will make a change to how your boat is actually chosen. I will ignore dry docked boats. DaBean, did you have any docked boats when this happened?

 

[Dexter]

im going to mark this as Fixing, but we'll consider it a "loose fix" lol. Once it goes live, let me know if there are any more issues.

I don't know if I do....I don't think so.

 

[Dan]

Maybe one day adding a playermobile property "HasBoat" would help since each character can only have 1 boat out at a time anyways?

Dexters change is in. Will give it a few days, let us know if you have any more issues.
