No xp gained for crafting fruit tree beans for the first time on a new game day

The tweet said this was a per game day limit, so this would appear to be a bug. I was maxed out for the day prior to this and made 40 before the game day rolled over and as expected got no xp (there was no warning either- a warning would be appreciated so I don't waste materials). When the day rolled over, I made another 40 and again got no xp.

  • Did you make the new batch after getting the popup for new day (not just watching the clock)?  I tested myself and was able to get more XP for things I'd maxed out the previous day.

  • Yes it was after the popup. That's how I had enough energy to craft them in the first place, as I had consumed all of it making the previous run prior to the day change (it costs 600 and my max is only 950, and I didn't restore any energy after I made them).

  • Similar thing just happened to me. New Game day as its 8:51am in Game atm. Seasoned 40 Fruit Tree Beans, and received a whopping total of 23xp. Come on now something is completely wrong here I hadn't made seasoned beans for at least 1 previous game day. I am severely mad at this point I should have received 2300xp not a tenth of it. 

    *EDIT*
    Here is a screen capture to show what i am talking about.

  • Ok just happened again completely new game day and completely new Day in real life and still got no xp formaking 40 Fruit Tree Beans. Once again a picture to prove I am not making this up.

  • I just seasoned another 40 beans on another brand new game day, this time without having made any at all on the previous game day, and once again received NO XP AT ALL. I have now wasted 120 fruit tree beans worth of materials, with no warning or expectation that I might be wasting them, and received 0 xp for the effort.

  • OK happened again this time making Bean Tree beans. Is it b/c I am making 40 at a time?? That doesn't seem logical.

  • I seasoned 40 bubble tree beans - this was the first time I've made bubble tree beans in several RL days.  Took 600 energy, as it should, 0 XP gained.  I had no warning beforehand.  I did get told, after I made them, that I would receive no more XP.

    "You made Bubble Tree Bean (x40) -600 energy. You'll receive no more XP from making these today. The creation process has ceased to stimulate your frontal cortex."

    Seems that if the limit is, say 5 - I would at least get the 300 XP from those 5.

  • Okay, this is really messed up.  O_O;  I seasoned beans individually, and got the maxed XP on the 40th bean.  40 beans at once clearly isn't working properly, so I tried 5 beans, 10 beans, and 20 beans.  All of these awarded XP properly.  However, when I tried 39 beans, it did not award XP properly.  I guess I'll be poking at 20-39 beans 'tomorrow'.

  • That's so bizarre and there's nothing saying what the limit is?

  • Okay, this is weirder than I thought.  Maybe it's because I'm using different bean types (all 150 currant value beans), but XP is proving to be inconsistent.  So, while 20 beans worked earlier, it didn't work when I started working backwards when above 20.  One at a time's looking like the only surefire method right now, and even there, how many you can season may vary depending on if you've got mood maxed or not.

  • I am having this problem too.
    This was the first time I made bean tree beans during this game day and I only received 96xp for making 14.
    Then I made 3 spice plant beans and received significantly more xp.

  • I've been trying tons of recipes 1 at a time, and it seems like that is basically the safest method to doing things. If you want the xp, you've got to take the time to just make one at a time. I got up to 200 pickles a few days ago and was still receiving xp. I'm sure this will be corrected eventually, and we'll actually have solid limits on crafting, but until then, don't do them in large batches!

  • I had a similar thing.  Made 10 gas tree beans in one hit and got no xp at all despite having not made any previous beans that day (game day or real day).  I've since made beans in batches of 5 the next couple of game days and had no problem.

  • I wonder if the game servers are running on a non-deterministic turing machine…

  • Be absolutely certain that your mood is in the 'winky face' levels if you want maximum xp.  (the screen shots seem to indicate that you are at pretty high mood levels, though).

    Sometimes people don't pay attention to the mood level and then  XP can vary significantly.

  • We're looking into the bug where your xp gets capped prematurely, as well as the lack of warning when a batch make job will push you over your limit, so you can craft things more efficiently. Sorry for the delayed response.

  • Just to clarify a bit - if you hit your xp cap on your first crafting session of the day, the messaging appears to say you didn't get any xp, but we're still giving it to you up to the cap. We're working on fixing the messaging, though, so it works properly, and looking into other possible tools to help players plan out their crafting a bit more better. Thanks guys!

  • I have had the same problem from grinding a single Allspice into Pepper, it said you have reached your max XP

  • I've just posted a similar bug with Cooking.  I didn't get XP up to the cap.  I didn't get any XP at all on the very first use of the skill for a single item.

  • I got this same thing from trying to turn a single allspice into a garlic. But I did make 6 beans earlier in the day. But seriously...I made 6 beans. 6.

  • I just had it with bubble tuning and butterfly eggs... 16 blue bubbles/20 tiny bubbles/2 butterfly eggs is xp cap on all three, after having not made any of these since yesterday? Wut?

  • Just to clarify, when I said we were working on fixing it, that meant it wasn't quite fixed yet. We'll get it working soon, though, promise!
