Languages are being wonky

Post by The Real Dagon Worshipper »

Description of Bug Experienced:
When typing -language, the progress always shows differently, sometimes it appears green, others yellow, sometimes fluent and sometimes intermediate, with different percentages. It's also been stuck on 51% for the past couple of days, even when I engage in several conversations in undercommon.


Steps to reproduce the Bug:
-I only gotta type -language

Expected Result:
Should show the correct percentage.

Actual Result:
As mentioned before, it shows either 51% or 100%, but never the same value with consecutive -language commands.

Additional Information/Notes
Update: My natural int modifier is +1, and I took Xanarless as a bonus tongue (From roll/gift). Someone warned me that this might be affecting it.

I'll take a look.
I did a minor adjustment to the way it tells if you are fluent and it's possible something in there just isn't meshing as intended.
From what I can tell on first glance the value is correct as it is remaining yellow for progress but the secondary % indicator isn't being set on second and third viewings here.

I have the opposite issue ( I do have 45%, which clearly isn't fluent enough)

I am in the process of fixing this now, I'll likely revert the one line I changed that's causing the issue, if it is that! I suspect I know what's happening though and it's a nice plate of sphaget.

Reverted, let me know after a reset or two if this is still an issue. I'll take a deeper look and see if anything else was changed.

Doing a show in Celestial tonight at the fools clover and my Celestial is all over the place in percentage. Seen 50% Fluent and 100% intermediate… very wonky.

The good news is, it's almost entirely visual and is not related to learning.
Sorry for the wonkyness though!

Thanks!
It's been stuck on 51% for quite some time; I'll do some heavy talking in UC today and see if it helps.

My language progression been bugged as well, at first people told me that maybe it was the phrasebook , but after several interactions with several languages i realised it was actually my character problem, so not sure if other people have the same issue.

I literally have no progression at all

If you are still having an issue with learning after another reset please update this thread or send me a PM with your build and some info on the below set of interactions.
There are a few things that can cause some weirdness that I will need to look at:
Languages gained by class
Languages gained by race
Languages taken on creation
Languages learned during play
Max hard ranks in intelligence
Gift of learning
Class bonus to language caps

All of these interact in one way or another and so more detail will be very much appreciated.

Seeing as no one has updated this in three days, I'm moving it to closed.
Please make a new thread or send a pm as per the prior post detail requests for similar issues.
