    Buffs are missing time when saving and continuing [VIDEO]

    Not 100% sure if this is a bug. (mostly because the health and buff bar doesn't load instantly)
    I noticed someone posted about it a little while ago, and finally got to investigate it and record it.
    They also posted about buffs not stacking and multiple buffs of the same buff would cancel each other out.
    But that seems to be fixed in Patch #7

    Although the Missing time with buffs when you save and continue is still there.
    It's not lots of missing time, but over time it can add up i guess.

    Basically 8-12 seconds of buff time are lost per save and continue, with specific buffs that are not supposed to tick while offline or not actively in-game.

    While i would consider, that a loading screen is not in-game and the first 1-2 seconds worth of the game after the black-screen of loading after the loading screen are also not considered a playable/prime gaming state.
    Granted that the first few seconds for anyone is usually a "ok what was i just doing".

    Which makes me believe this is a bug, a minor one, but a bug nonetheless.

    If you have sound on you can actually hear yourself spawn or get into world like 3-5 sec before the loading screen ends. Explains the time gap.

    Hmmm must be an issue with loading. We have just fixed an issue with them not displaying properly, but I wonder if we can do something to have the timers not start until the player is no longer on the loading screen, even if in the background you're character has loaded.

    Yeah, or until the person moves or something.
