Some (Possible) Vampire Bug

Postby Superalex11 » Tue Dec 24, 2019 9:18 pm

So this is a complicated one that I'll have to give context for before I explain the actual bug(?).

To start, I'm a solo vamp.
N1 I get witched into biting P15, making him the youngest vamp.
N2 P15 gets shot by vig and dies: https://i.gyazo.com/a1c394f6195690f04e6 ... be4af4.png
N2 I also get the following messages: https://i.gyazo.com/0c3dc76a342547f6423 ... 97467f.png
Since we didn't have the choice to bite, I'm supposing P15 was witched into biting P12.
All makes sense so far.
Then N3, P12 dies and is shown to be a vet: https://i.gyazo.com/a656323684f86237df2 ... d71fc7.png
Very odd... and in the post-game screen, I double-checked to make sure there was no funny trans/disg business going on.
There wasn't: https://i.gyazo.com/aab20a5618ec3c319bf ... adb508.png

Altogether, it seems evident that something is wrong, so I'll look at each possibility:

If P15 wasn't witched into P12, but another player (e.g. the arso), why did I receive the message saying the vamps visited P12?
If P15 was witched into P12, and P12 alerted, why didn't P15 show as dying to vet?
If P15 was witched into P12, and P12 didn't alert, why didn't P12 get converted?

Also, why did I get the "target's defense" message at all, given that I'm not the youngest vamp? Double-checking the wiki shows that only the youngest should receive the message. And again, I wasn't witched N2, so nothing weird would've happened from that.

Am I missing something?


I'm also on patch 3.1.9 (12549) btw.


Lightning fast edit actually: Just checked the witch section of the wiki and it mentions this behavior, saying on non-biting nights the vamps will visit, not bite, but also somehow not be killed by vets. Is this intended behavior?

Visitors that are unable to visit on their own will not die to the Veteran (but sadly to the Medusa) when they get witched to them, which is likely what happened in your case.
