Thanks Skip. I'm starting test right now and wondering what the update's all about (as there are no notes...grrrrr) I'm glad the compass is going back to the way it was, at least at sea. Time to go sink myself ;)

Me prayers have been answered...the compass has returned to normal..YaY!!!!!

Sarah's 624 compass bug reports had an impact!

Thank you, Sarah...you are a persistent pirate..LOLZ But it pays off in the end...Aye? :dancetl6:

I thought the compass made sense on land, but not at sea. Seems like Disney and the reporting masses agreed! I like the changes they made to the compass in this case.

Sarah 08-27-2009 04:14 PM

It was only 622 reports ;)

Compass is back to the way it was at sea, but the new stationary compass is still the way it is on land. Going to take some getting used to, at lest for me. Maybe another report....:psmiley35:

Well, at least now I know which direction to shoot when sailing...Geez..talk about being confused...But then I do consume alot of rum so------>

Wooza! :D Hey - I'm always lost on land anyway so the compass could point right to me and it wouldn't matter hehe

But don't be taking me Ship Compass away! :D

lol, perhaps.
I am fairly certain the compass works on land the way it does to accomodate the new F8 maps. As they have implemented these updates, the areas with the F8 maps have been the ones effected in the past. Implementation of more of these maps has the compass appearing in the new mode more often. Go to the jungles that havent been 'updated' yet, and you'll see the compass at least look the old way it was, but does I see now work the same way as the F8 areas, just no cool detailed map in it. I do think it was a mistake to have it at sea the way it was, glad they agreed!

Sarah 08-27-2009 04:31 PM

I'm sure you're right about the land map/compass Zep. It makes sense on paper, just not in my head yet...

Don't go there! LOL

Dr. Zeppers 08-27-2009 04:46 PM

I seldom ever used it on land except to find the pink dots that were me crew when I or they had wandered off.. hehe

Aliese 08-27-2009 05:28 PM

Well, half is a start, but I'm still going to "feedback" on the land ones.

I don't mind the maps being stationary (I only glance at them, anyway ;)), but I really don't like when the compass doesn't line up with what I see... All I'm asking for is a toggle - work with me D! LoL

(and I'm sure that I sent in at least as many reports as Sarah...pfft... :biggrin8:)

Sven Niscadae 08-27-2009 06:03 PM

EDIT: Ooh! NVM. Should've read page 3!

Awesome! I do like the new compass on land and caves. The older one is better for seas (though I liked the compass BEFORE the current one) but I'll deal.

Dr. Zeppers 08-27-2009 07:09 PM

Am I alone in thinking all the bosses have the wrong shadowing on them prior to being 'aggravated'? I know I reported it before, but guess I was hoping that would be addressed, and I am still seeing it.

Aye, that was my experience also, i do not think anyone gets credit for them. I 'think' it appears that one does if ye goes and sinks a few more afterwards before porting, or maybe not. Anyhow, I got nothing from mine as well, hehe.
