Rube Bug

This has happened to me a few times. I see the Rube. Click on The Rube and get the "Talk To" option.

Rube makes an offer and disappears. The offer remains. Even if you say "Sounds Great" and accept the offer he is long gone and you receive nothing and the negotiation box disappears. And if your first response is "What else do you have" he also disappears.

Screenshot after Rube vanishes but offer still "available": bit.ly/pxZu1c

It looks like there is a small window of time after he has traded with someone else that the "Talk To" option seems viable but really isn't.

  • I am having the same bug (or perhaps a very similar one). It has now happened 3 times that I've clicked on the "what else have you got?" option, and the dialog box has disappeared. I've clicked on Rube and tried once more with "Talk To" in the dialog box that pops up, and that has let me try once more. However, after the next click, the Rube disappears (doesn't even seem to do the "collapse," just kind of vanishes. I think that this started happening after I once got all the way through all 5 options without selecting anything.

    Don't know if that helps, but there it is for what it's worth. I use Firefox (which I know is buggy), so I thought it might be some weirdness on my end.

  • gilbert whisper, Firefox may not have been the problem there (I mean, we *are* talking The Rube here- you know how he is). Rube was slightly reworked just after The Cat Face posted but we do have a couple Rube issues via player reports that we are looking at.
