Dialogue issues have been fixed and the patch uploaded to the server.

I tested the "green dot" on the CtpArcher save and saw it without a problem. If it only happens occasionally, I will have to investigate, but not anytime soon.

As to the "ghost pixels with rotating colors and alike"... I never saw them. Maybe it's a temporary anomaly (an underwater storm in your game world or something :lol:). If it keeps happening then we'll look into it. The best would be if you could repeat the glitch and instruct me how to reproduce it.

Hey. Hey. After updating to 0.95.38, which I have played today for a while, I got into a situation where when I try to leave Old Danzig, I see the sea screen for about 1 second and then the game crashes into the Workbench. I saved the position in slot 4, can you please investigate?

The second annoyance I've noticed is the occasional flickering of the screen when I'm in save mode (when I click on the floppy icon at the top). It's nothing major, but it wasn't like this in previous versions of the game. I only noticed it with version 0.95.38.

I haven't noticed any such glitches, but all the possible problems are due to the substantial recent expansion of the code. Some old sections of the program use instructions that sometimes cause serious compiler problems. The recently released version 0.95.41 should improve the situation. However, there are still places that need further optimization of the code. But we are closer to a clean code that should provide even better stability.

Glitches are gone, thank you.

But unfortunately even in this version 0.95.41 when I leave Old Danzig to the sea, the game crashes to the Workbench :( :cry: :?: .

Have had an interesting effect today after upgrading my vessel to Cuttlefish in New Orleans.
Went to the bar, talked to one npc after the other, offering stuff.
The second NPC - I don't know the name was like...

The quick save from entering the city I uploaded to slot 4 around 19:18 CEST. Hope that helps.
Time shown of the quick save was like 20:85!!!

Enormously! Reporting an issue in this way is always very helpful. Thank you, Captain Chritoph and all other captains who do it the same way.
The best method is to save it to the server (slot 4), provide the time it was saved and instructions on how to reproduce the problem.

As a reminder, a remote save can be overwritten, which is not a problem as the server backs up every save made, so accessing the correct one is always very easy (knowing the time it was saved).

As this is harmless and happens rarely, it will have to wait a little longer due to other priorities.
