Voting Bug

Postby shrek6669 » Mon Jul 15, 2019 8:11 pm

This happens almost every game for me. This is a bug involving the voting system within the game Town of Salem. The bug is where votes stack beside someone's name and stay there even if majority has voted innocent.

Hypothetical situation:
Let's pretend it's day 2, and 8 players vote up person A. Majority votes innocent and person A gets let down from the stand. The 8 votes are still next to person A's name, even if all 8 players vote up another person, such as person B. Say person B is also voted innocent and is let down, now there's 8 votes against person B's name. It isn't a game changer, but it does get confusing as to who is getting voted. The only way I could really tell who was being voted was via the chat (e.g "Person A has voted against Person B") I have screenshots down below of the bug.

Here you can see there is only 5 players left. There's 5 votes against (15) Lana, 4 votes against (7) Potato, and 1 vote against (3) Holiday.

2nd image: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/466172254993252362/600503847827537930/156323942723752709_1.png?width=251&height=300
Here is the same game just later during the day since we only get 3 trials per day. As you can see, comparing it from the image before, the votes have stacked. 7 votes on both (7) Potato, (15) Lana and a single vote on (3) Holiday; though there is only 5 players left.

3rd image: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/466172254993252362/600504124026650634/156323942723752709_2.png?width=252&height=300
Here is a screenshot of a different game. There is 6 players left, and there is 4 votes on (9) Apple and 3 votes on (3) Edward Bishop. Obviously, that would make sense if there was 7 players, since 4+3=7 but there's 6 players.

NOTE This does NOT happen when someone has been put on the stand and majority has voted guilty.

Is anyone else having this problem?

This is only a visual bug related to the Flash client. Bugs that are currently only clientsided are not going to get fixed, since the Flash client is getting replaced soon.
