Serious Emissary Flag Bug - Scuttle Ship

  • Scuttling ship while being attacked de-spawns your emissary banner preventing the attacker from picking it up. This is going to break the reaper faction.

    Situation: Attacking another reaper emissary, the other ship knew we were going to sink them. They scuttled their ship which de-spawned their emissary flag.

  • Sweet. I Will do this every time an annoying reaper ship rolls up. Joke of an idea

  • This is 100% categorically false.

    How do I know? Simple, just go into the game, put any flag on your ship and scuttle. Watch your flag float up the the surface..

  • @scuppermckeown The flag does not despawn. wait for the ship to sink and then the flag will come up, with all the loot on ship. If you didnt find the flag, more than likely one of the enemy crew grabbed it and swam off with it so you couldnt have it.

  • @scuppermckeown personally I dont think the same factions should be encouraged to fight. It should be that if you attack and sink a ship in the same emissary faction to you you have some rep taken away and no flag spawns. It makes no sense to be able to hand in a reaper of bones flag in to the reaper of bones faction lol.

    This is some serious fake news, did you even test this for yourself before making this thread?

    EDIT: @Deckhands can you do something about the spread of nonsense? I don't think it's good for the forums.

  • Just happened to me. A player scuttled while he was on his sloop and his flag despawned (it despawned from his ship, as if he untaged).

    Maybe he sent another player vote for untag and disconnected so the vote can work with the player left or maybe a bug happening under some circumstances.

  • @noximilus Well unless it is random I don't think that is true? We scuttled the ship at the end of our session last night to see if we could sell our own flag and it floated right up as it should.

  • It happened again today, a galleon flagged which lost his flag while scuttling. I think it happens when all players from the crew disconnect and the ship is scuttled by system not by vote.

    @Octopus-Lime I agree, it works for me too when I scuttle, now we need to test if it happens with disconnection scuttle. Need 2 crews on the same session.

  • @noximilus Did you notice if the galleon flag was grade one? I have a feeling that if you scuttle with a grade one flag that has no progress then the flag will not spawn. This might be to stop people teaming up and farming grade one flags?

  • @Octopus-Lime It was indeed grade 1 for both ships from what I remember.
