Delete branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
At the end of character creation, when clicking the Rubi-ka button, nothing happens, so I clicked it a second time, but the character was created on first attempt.
After I got back to character list, it was there.
Next time this happens we need a timestamp of when you faced the issue with as much accuracy as you can get.
We'd need to check the logs.
i make a new characther opifex male agent named it agent007 clicked play and nothing happened; again again then i change name agent0007 and it starts; maybe a lenght name problem;
it creates both btw

This happened to me at about 2024-01-17 14:15 - 2024-01-17 14:20 UTC. Character 'Wack'.
I did not change the name I entered - I simply entered the name "Wack" and nothing happened when I clicked "Rubi-Ka". The second time I clicked it, it told me the name was taken (expected if the character was created).
I think it has to do with some professions default inventory/gear.
Issue occurred for me at 02:09 UTC Jan 23rd. Both times Opifex Female Martial Artists (Tinkerfite and Blahtest1). It occurred once for my last Opifex Female Martial Artist (Tinkerfite) as well, but I don't have the timestamp beyond some time January 18th.
Tests from 02:10-02:21 UTC January 23rd:
The problem did not occur for a Solitus Female Martial Artist (CCTest2).
It did occur for a Opifex Male Martial Artist (CCtest3).
It did occur for a Opifex Female Nanotechnician (Cctest4).
It did occur for a Nanomage Female Nanotechnician (Cctest5).
It did occur for a Nanomage Male Martial Artist (Cctest6).
It did occur for a Atrox Martial Artist (Cctest7).
It did occur for a Opifex Female Meta-Physicist (Cctest8).
Tried with a huge number of breed/profession combinations locally and was unable to reproduce this - the issue has either been fixed on Ithaca (unlikely) or it is probably unrelated to breed/profession.
Could this be due to Newland City not being available? I had a character stuck in one of the Newland shops, unable to leave because "area change not initiated on the server". Rolling a new character experienced this issue immediately afterward.
The reason I don’t think this is the case is because I’ve rolled quite a few characters now where nothing happens when I press the RK button, so within 5 seconds I go back to character select and click the new character and it consistently logs me in to Newland City. You would expect sometimes when logging in from character select it would fail.
This is almost always a teleportation bug, which has been fixed now, but it used to be that if you somehow teleported while inside a proxy playfield such as a shop, you got stuck in it unless you teleported out again. Most commonly this was caused by someone using /set level inside a shop
If NLC was unavailable, you'd just get stuck at a loading screen before the game disconnected
Issue remains present, encountered again just now rolling a new Opifex Fixer.
still happens as of today, workaround remains to quit character creation and just log in normally.
Rubi-Ka button greys out and nothing happens (instead of logging in and spawning on ICC shuttleport)
Character appears on character selection screen and you can log in normally.
I believe this has been fixed for a while now.
Rolled a few chars and had that issue appear again. Just picked a random breed and random prof and created a random name. Clickling on "Rubi-Ka" results in the 'back' and 'Rubi-Ka' button being greyed out and nothing happening. After 1-2 Minutes it results in an error message that states "Something is wrong with the server".
I can't reproduce this on Ergo and the steps to reproduce are pretty much non-existent.
Thank you @Oatbag . I'm closing this. If this happens again then we can open a new issue with better steps to reproduce anyways. currently the data of this ticket doesn't provide enough to see where the problem is and how we can figure it out.
