(reported) Missing tradeships

thank you for reply.

i definitely will post anymore issues i encounter

can probably close this thread

i reported this same bug earlier and i didnt realize this thread was here. so im going to add to it a little. earlier today my ships went AWOL for about 17minutes.. there must be a reason that caused this..

anyway i remembered something when it happened. i think the glitch occurs when you try to go pillage an enemy town as soon as your ships return in half a second or less. this causes the game go glitch due to probably a refreshing issue.

as in you are in your combat overview. you click on the town you just came back from and because the game is trying to refresh the page from your city or whatever map you are currently on to a different island and trying to register your ships returning. it causes this.

the glitch is like a speeding. For trying to attack too fast (back to back with as little delay as possible to increase overall wealth, without giving your ships a break does this i believe. A methaphor is like spreading on the road the getting a ticket (ghosted trade ships) which slows you down (17m or so for me) more than just going the normal speed (waiting for returned pillage to be posted in general town overview before sending them out b2b with a second or less of cooldown time.

Basically to sum it up. youre trying to update the page from island to island and send out an attack before the game could register the return of your raid in the town overview. not sure if anyone notices but sometimes the game lags when you switch from view to view. ex (island > world > town, etc. in any order)

I believe to prevent this,

DO NOT CLICK A TOWN YOU HAVE TO REFRESH A PAGE TO, THE EXACT SECOND YOUR TRADESHIPS RETURN.

just wait 2-3 seconds or even better yet when your pillage returns to click the town overview tab to reselect the target rather than through the military's advisor.

I might be wrong anyone else with anything similar? i hope this helps to identify the issue or help fix it somehow. cant fix a issue if we dont know what the problem causing it.

Thanks!

happened again..
