Random Pop-up Confirmation Window when selling junk for gold/silver

sanpedrocactussanpedrocactus Member Posts: 67 Arc User
Just curious to why this randomly pops (guessing it depends on the server u r on) and if this is necessary to the game. Seems to be a useless pain in the butt because u can always buy stuff back that u accidentally sell anyway. Can the Devs please remove this feature all across the board?? Pretty please! (consider it QOL)

    This feature was implemented to avoid accidental sells or destruction. We are always looking for feedback on how to improve these measures though. What items are you getting this pop-up in that you feel don't merit the warning?

    Just curious, has the OP been selling fish to the Elk Tribe fishmonger? She has had a bug since the release of SoMI.

    It sounds like that's the case. The confirmation appears because the game wants you to confirm a quantity, even on items that don't stack. It will do that until you restart the client, then stop until you sell fish again.

    The bug is specifically triggered by selling a stack of fish. Selling singles - unstacked fish - does not trigger it. But if the slider window pops up, the bug occurs.

    I'm not getting this from selling fish. I mostly notice it after changing instances. That's why I'm asking if its server based. Honestly I would like it removed. Its not necessary at all. If you do sell the wrong thing to a vendor, you already have the entire time you are on to get it back. In my opinion its more of a hindrance than a help. Wasted coding and time.

    And the items I'm getting the warning on is pretty much every junk item i sell for gold...potions, green gear, etc. Personally I have no problems with the fish seller and think that is a separate issue all together.

    You haven't sold any fish then? Because it bugs other vendors, not the fish vendor herself. Otherwise you have some new bug that no one else has reported.

    ETA you admit to having sold to the fish vendor. You have the bug. Restart your client after selling fish.

    Okay, here's the thing. Yes I have sold fish. Yes I have reset many times for many reasons. However it does it in different instances and in different locations at random times. (In other words, not just in or because of SOMI) Fish or no fish so i fail to see the relation. It seems more likely for what i'm talking about that different servers are set to show the pop-up window and others are not. Are there any solutions that don't involve fish? I just would like to play without the extra pop-ups.

    What people are saying is that there is a KNOWN BUG that if you EVER sell a stack of fish to the SOMI fishmonger, ALL STORES (regardless of zone) will feature a slider for ALL STACK-ABLE GOODS until you RESTART THE GAME.

    It sounds like you are saying that cannot be the error you are experiencing because one or both of these two things:
    1. You get a slider at a store during a gaming session without first selling a stack of fish to the fishmonger.
    2. After the first time you get the bug in a game session, there are times where you will visit a different store and try to sell a stackable item and the bug will not appear.
    If either or both of those statements is true, then you are right in suggesting this is a new bug.

    Everyone is trying to determine if it's possible you are experiencing the known bug, or if you really have discovered a brand new bug that nobody else seems to be experiencing. A new bug that only you are getting is possible, but less likely, so that's why we are trying to rule out the old bug first.

    My question is this: is it possible that you are experiencing the know bug? Is it possible that for all situations where you experienced the bug you had visited the fishmonger first? Is it possible that all of the times that the bug went away you were selling a non-stackable item?

    Question 1: No. I do not believe so. Because 2 instances yesterday disprove this: First time I logged in went to RD, ended up in a heavy instance. Did nothing else but kill a few guys, pick up loot, and wait for timer to change. While I waited; went to sell junk to general vendor and sold two items with no pop-up. Timer finished switched to instance with 3 peeps and bam same vendor now has pop-up. Instance 2 (3 or so hours later after completely exiting the game and relogging)...Went into DR after just logging in (same toon). Killed some guys, grabbed some trash loot and went to reg capt vendor in tent. No pop up for four items. Went to instance with few people, and sold items again no problem. Went to one more instance with no people, sold some items...pop-up came up. No fishing. No fish in inventory on any of my toons. No visit to fishmonger. Again, I think this is something else.

    Question 2:No. No fishmonger. Have had this same scenario after going to Bryn Shander, Rothe Valley, and Mantol-Derith too. Same no fish, no fishmonger.

    Question 3: No, sometimes its stackable stuff too like potions.

    The problem you describe sounds like a bug unique to you, possibly corrupted files. Try force verifying from options on the launcher.

    Not a bug. My program is fine. I have force verified many times between when i first posted and now. Its fine if you all just think I'm nuts, but this is a real issue. And its not just me. But everyone is free to think what they like. I appreciate those who honestly tried to help. You have my thx. If Craptic doesn't wanna fix it. That's fine. Got better things to do, this is my last post on this.

    I have had it pop up randomly selling in the stronghold, in PE, and in other places. I have had it show up selling Invocation Blessings, platinum statuettes, etc.

    And since my main has finished SKT I haven't sold fish in forever.
