Question Gardening Glitch

This has only happened to me this one time, but a lot of people have gardened a lot more than me.

I got about halfway through one of my gardening minigames, when all of a sudden, the resins stopped disappearing when matched. I would continue to click on different resins and match them all, thinking the server would catch up, but my rrt was depleting and I didn't want to waste too much. I exited and continued about my business.

I don't know how it could be duplicated, or if it was even a serverside issue, but it was strange. Anyone else had this happen?

Same thing just happened again. No timeout warning, no lag on any of my 3 toons. Chat still moving normally. Just stopped clearing matches

Going to need to see a video, otherwise it's possible it's a brain sync issue where you think you're getting matches but your two clicks are the end of the last turn and the start of a new one.

I assure you that is not the case. I tried multiple times to clear the same matches each time once it happened. I don't know how to do a video, and I've only lost about 20 minutes of rrt total because of it. It's a minor inconvenience at worst and has only happened twice.

Glitch,

I don't know wtf it means, but a similar, but not exactly the same issue occurred. This time I got a super silly, repeated error. I continued to garden, and it matched, but oddly. If I picked 2 of the same, it wouldn't clear, but if I picked wrong, then picked the second resin on the first pick of the next turn (hopefuly that made sense), it cleared. When there was only 2 left, they cleared normally and gave me my veggie. I'm e-mailing you a screenshot of the silly error.

It's an error indicating corrupted packets giving the client info that doesn't make sense. Which client is it occurring on? Browser or downloadable?

I'm not sure if anyone else has brought it to your attention before, but every now and then, when I click, it will register 2 clicks. When hunting, it will say "prey killed" and then immediately after, it will say "you killed nothing" on a single click. I have a feeling it may be due to refresh rate and just happening to click on that small fraction of a second that data is transferring. Similar example: clicking exit after combat will exit looting and immediately say "you cannot use combat actions while not in combat".

I have seen this before, although infrequently. I almost never experience lag, other than when the server is having issues.

This problem should be resolved with a major revamp of the browser client which will add the same packet validation that the downloadable client has. Hopefully done by the end of the year.
