I search hi and lo and can't find how you change the profile default creature. Will we have this option? Where can I find said option if we can change our default creature?

Happy new year!
What I'm about to post are just some comments/suggestions. I haven't been "going crazy" enough to pinpoint some errors πŸ˜‹ pardon me if some points I'll mention has already been mentioned before... I haven't read the whole topic..

Comment 1: since the born of these advance mobile phones, I've become a heavy mobile user as compare to using pc's. So accessing eggcave through mobile phone is my preference. I tried the mobile version off eggcave 3 and it's all cramped up... The words doesn't fit the "boxes" anymore. I tried going to cave as well... Probably the icons are too big? I don't know... Everything is too much enclosed. Though I like the drop down option.
Suggestion: probably try to get the font smaller in the mobile version? Or try to redesign the mobile version a bit different to a desktop view? Similar when you're doing online shopping... The interface is a bit different when doing mobile vs desktop shopping? If not, I might as well opt using desktop view whilst you're sorting out the mobile version.
Another thing is, you may not want a mobile version of the eggcave all in all so that it'll be less hassle. Besides, a player can fully enjoy eggcave anyway when you're using the desktop view (my opinion only)

Comment 2: the easycode. You removed the "select all/select none". That function is really important to me (I don't know for the others)... I use this to immortalize my cove or other coves. Instead of me searching for all of them one by one which I might miss some babies (I know, I'm being lazy)
Suggestion : return the "select all/none" functions.

Comment 3: easycode. Say you won't be returning the functions that I mentioned... It'll be helpful if the creatures are alphabetically arranged with 5 babies per row. Because at the moment it's just one per row... It'll take ages for us to scroll down looking for a creature especially for coves with 100+ babies not to mentioned it's not even alphabetical.
Suggestion : make them alphabetically arranged with 5 creatures per row. (somewhat similar to Tim's food shop view in our current version)

Comment 4: I like the thief shop. It's a bit of gambling. And I just lost 400k (&β‚±&-? =) =+-=%+! /%=!!!!
But it's good because there's a lot of options now with the eggs.
Instead of positioning the mystery eggs vertically. Why not horizontally, it saves space. (minimalist me talking)... I just don't like the dead space it creates when you can actually put the eggs horizontally.
Suggestion : horizontal position of eggs. Cheaper mystery eggs πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‹ πŸ˜‹

Comment 5: cave. The "previously seen eggs" where arranged vertically... It makes the web page longer
Suggestion: please make it horizontal. Probably the reason I like the eggs arranged horizontalally is because I'm using mobile phone on a desktop view(?)

Comment 6: I think every item was arranged vertically. The cash shop. Archives(!). Asteroid. Shops. Inventory...
Suggestion : try make it horizontal.. 😊

Comment 7: I'm very impressed with how far eggcave has been since I started 2011. Cheers to the future! ❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️❀️


I think that's all for now... Tell me what you think. Thanks!

@animegirlalways @rowyn working on these issues, thank you!

@tigerlove: are you referring previewing Travels in your Inventory prior to placing the Travel on the creature? Please confirm.

@_piano_pokemon_: with regards to creatures not belonging to you existing in a trade lot, can you please provide me the trade lot URL on the test server?

@fakeworld: it’s ok that unique URLs can be regenerated. Even though these are visible URLs, they are only visible to you. The Cave doesn’t function any differently than the existing Cave does, because you can actually visit eggs you recently visited within the same time period.

-------

Thank you for the updates and comments guys. Now that the holidays are over, devs are returning to version 3 work! ❀️

EDIT: Huge updates today! Check the change log and ping me back here. Thanks all!

I created a new cove list but the Default Cove List option under Preferences shows "Please Feed These" and not the new list. I went ahead and selected the "Please Feed These" list as my default then went to My Profile, which does show the new list I created and not "Please Feed These", but it is still defaulting to the All list. Also, I created the new list with 7 creatures and the seventh creature shows up outside the list area/box right above the word Wall.

I love the new updates! You guys are doing great.
However, I was able to rename my creature while it was in a trade offer, which I believe is usually blocked.

@Ian
I'm pretty sure the computer set up is fine, but now I'm trying the phone version, and everything's lined up vertically, so it's quite hard to read and navigate. Especially the inventory. Also there's not enough space for the lettering on the phone, so most of the words run off into space, overlapping other words and pictures.

Oh, and also the profile info (computer screen) seems to scroll on forever, and the left side of it is completely blank. Perhaps you could change the formatting so the space gets filled and the info won't be so long. Maybe you could make it a little wider.

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/preferences
What I was trying to do: Change my default cove list
What failed: The two options shown on the drop-down menu are "All Creatures" and "Please Feed These." I don't have a list named "Please Feed These." I have one named "Bloop", but that's not showing up on the list. When I set "Please Feed These" as default, nothing changes and "All Creatures" remains as default.

~

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/trades/results?user=5eggs79
What I was trying to do: Click the "view" trades link from the user profile
What failed: It brought be to an error page.
BadMethodCallException in Macroable.php line 74:
Method paginate does not exist.

And then a whole bunch of code.

I tried this with some other user profiles and got the same result.

~

Also, when clicking the links under "Posts" and Topics," it brings me back to the top of the page (the page being the user profile page.)

~

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/auctions/45/show
What I was trying to do: I tried to view an auction I set up
What failed: The images of the two creatures stolen on Version 3 don't show up (the picture shows a black egg with a question mark).

EDIT: I tried to view the auction lot again and now the 7 items in the lot don't show up at all, though the listing still says 3 Creatures and 7 Items

~

Multiple sections of the leaderboards also lead to error pages.

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/leaderboards/monthly?stat=level
What I was trying to do: View the "Monthly: Highest Level" section of the leaderboards
What failed: It brings me to an error page

QueryException in Connection.php line 729:
SQLSTATE[42S22]: Column not found: 1054 Unknown column 'level_month' in 'order clause' (SQL: select * from `eggs` order by level_month desc, `id` asc limit 50)

The "Monthly: Total used by Creature," "Items: Total Unique Used by Creature," and "Items: Total Used by User" all bring me to an error page that says:

NotFoundHttpException in RouteCollection.php line 161:

~

All links at the bottom of the page, minus "Contact Us", all bring me to the top of the page I'm on.

~

The archives say "There are total of 30 species currently discovered and documented in The Archives." when there are a lot more.

~

I tried to add a creature stolen on Version 3, that I put into the adoption center and is locked, to the Click Exchange. I got a success message, and when I view the creature under Manage Creatures, a picture of a random Trigren shows up (I do not own this creature.)

It's a female, lasts stage Trigren, level 1848, has an Icicle Forest background, and is named "Anopla."

EDIT: This is the Trigren: http://eggcave.com/egg/1770751
This creature is not in Version 3.

EDIT AGAIN: Okay, so when I tried to give the same creature an item, Anopla the Trigren showed up again as the image under "effects."

The creature I tried to add: http://egg-cave.us/egg/1770751

Also in the click exchange, when adding either of the two creatures stolen on version 3 and are in the auctions, I get the missing creature image. This does not happen when I add my creature from this version and is in the auctions. It only happens to the ones stolen in version 3.

~

Just got two exact same notifications saying:
"Auction #44 is about to close in 10 minutes! Now is the time to double-check if you're going to win."

~

When viewing an item, the link to the associated shop brings me to the top of the page.

~

This is similar to the bug with the Trigren.
I just stole a Salaslyke from the cave.

This is the Salaslyke: http://egg-cave.us/egg/1770755

When giving it an item or putting it in the click exchange, the image that shows up is a Luckmooe.

This is the Luckmooe: http://eggcave.com/egg/1770755
The Luckmooe is not in Version 3

Page URL: http://egg-cave.us/cove
What I was trying to do: Trying to view my cove
What failed: it slowed to a crawl and then i got the message 'the page has become unresponsive. Do yo wish to close it?' The buttons 'Wait' and 'Close' are below. I tried this two more time with the same result

Im on older mobile phone and i think the new cove is a bit much for it to handle. I liked the sleek old cove

The huge font gives me a headache. You have to keep scrolling to read what was written.

Is there anyway to create a v3 mobile version with smaller font and your cove is not as load heavy?

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/trades/results?user=cloudslay3r
What I was trying to do: View my friend's trade lots
What Failed: It showed me this code page which on the top says: Whoops, looks like something went wrong. It also says: 1/1
BadMethodCallException in Macroable.php line 74:
Method paginate does not exist. After that, a bunch of code starting like this: in Macroable.php line 74
at Collection->__call('paginate', array('20')) in TradesController.php line 91
at TradesController->results(object(Request))
at call_user_func_array(array(object(TradesController), 'results'), array(object(Request))) in Controller.php line 80

EDIT: That actually happens when I try to view everyone's lots.

EDIT #2: In the auctions, are the images supposed to not show up in the listings? Because I don't see the creature itself until I click the auction itself.

The font may be to large.... dizzying.

EDIT #3: The bottom links, I click on Site Guidelines and Previous events and everything else (except for contact us)and it brings me back to the top of the page. Is that supposed to happen?

@ian

I'm sure people already listed most of these or the functions had yet to be added.

-Incorrect Gender if you put down other genders.

-When I click the fourms on someone's page it brings me to the top of the users page.

-Wouldn't it be better to show the picture of the creature in the auctions?

-If I click the cove fast enough I can get more than 10 creatures

-Get pinged if you write on your own wall

-Items that are placed in the trade don't have the trade status in the inventory

-If I delete the word Finley's Flavors and put random stuff I get sent to the application thing.

-The report button at the bottom of a users page looks kind of broken

-When I press any of the links at the bottom of the page aside from contact us it brings me to the top of the page and adds a # at the end of the url

-Some of my creatures that are up in trade are still in my create a trade list.

Page of error:http://egg-cave.us/auctions/44/show
What I was doing: Waiting for the auction to almost close
What failed: The timer is kinda off. It says an hour left, but then I can't bid since it says the auction is closed. (it's probably over anyway XD)

Page URL of error: http://egg-cave.us/preferences
What I was trying to do: Testing out genders
What failed: Most of the genders just have the male icon on them, instead of having the female icon.

For instance I changed my gender to female then to cis female, the icon went from female to male.

If this is intentional then don't worry about, but some people mind find this extremely offensive.



In the future will we be able to move how the text is? Like modules for instance. I can't stand seeing the text on the right side of the screen. I'm not sure if this bugs anyone else or not, but most site I've been on with this type of lay out has the text on the left so it grabs someone's attention.

With it on the right side I just ignore it. I think that would be bad since some people get really ticked/upset if people don't read their profile before feeding so certain creature don't evolve or whatever.

I also think the random creature button is a bad idea. What if someone has a creature they don't want to evolve? This goes along with the way the text should grab someone's attention. I know for a fact a lot of users get upset and make other's pay CC to them to get a rebirth if the creature evolves when they don't want it to. Maybe add an option to have the creatures opted out of the random button? I, for one, am one of those people that can't afford cc anymore, so I would not want my creature to evolve if I like it at a certain stage.

@Ian On one of the auctions it shows three creatures. One is a Honk while the other two are missing eggs. Not sure if it's because they are creatures from the cave on the beta testing cave.

When I buy an item and go to view item and it says associated by the toy shop and click it the link wont load. Not sure if its intentional?

Also if you try to enter under a different account you get Not Eligible For Testing making you unable to test on the account that you got invited on. When I click the Test Server link it no longer takes me to the log in page but to the Not Eligible for Testing.

(It won't let me log on my main now. XP when I click the Test Server link I get redirected)

Also on the log in page it doesn't display the time like it does when your logged in for testing.

On this page, http://egg-cave.us/leila, I notice that between the Leila Library and Thief Shop there is a unlabeled and unlinked shop.

I copy and pasted what I saw below:

Leila Library β€” Looking to expand your knowledge of Ark? Leila Library is the place to begin.
β€” Buy food for your creatures to keep them happy.
Thief Shop β€” The Master Thief is selling eggs on the black market.



The bolded part is where I see no label for it. πŸ˜‹
