another GGS quirk

i have had a players info square (the one that says their name, co-op) popping up on my screen, before anyone says i must have clicked on them by accident blah blah they are in a different co-op. it even happened while i had my co-ops chat open... therefore cannot click on the farm only in chat or on my co-ops players. very very strange especially as it still happens after i have run all my scans and cleared cache. It is nice being reminded so i can message her, but ? strange.. I will try and get a screenshot the next time   o:)o:) ggs think i am an angel, i better not say what i think they are..... o:)

    @bikeboy (GB1)  It  happened to to me lol, but this was fellow co-op member when I went to water tree. So you are not alone in this new quirk   B)
  • Me 3, glad you said you didn`t click anything cos I was 99.9% sure I hadn`t either, I just couldn`t figure out where it came from lol
  • Jiesta (NL1)Jiesta (NL1) Posts: 6,557
    Yep - we experience the same - f.i. when watering the coop tree, or when otherwise visiting someones farm.

    Same happen to me! Dismissed it as a random fluke. Cheers for posting about this @bikeboy (GB1)  ;)

    It is also happening on the Au1 server.  It seems to be a widespread quirk on most of the servers.  Doesn't happen every time just occasionally.

    Just something else to click to remove from the screen.  :)
  • same happening here

    Do these info windows just pop up without any rhyme or reason, or might this be a bug that's reproducable? Can you guys find anything you all did when this happened?

    The window just pops up after clicking to go water someones tree.

    Another quirk I have found is that once you have added eggs, apples etc. to the bakery the numbers go very small.  SO the total is really small in size.  You have to click out of the stock overview then you can go back in and the numbers are back to normal size.

    It's been like this for several days.

    Doesn`t seem to be any reason for the ones I have had. The last one was afew hours ago when I left my farm open and was doing other things on my puter, when I went back to the farm tab, I got a pop-up (hot deal I think it was) and a player info box for someone in my coop. There was nothing there when I left it & obviously I didn`t click anything when I was away. I have also had it when I've changed farms, its just there on the screen after the uploading message goes away & new farm appears.

    Not found anything that is doing it everytime (yet).

    Same for me When I water 1st tree after that its normal. The numbers for bakery I thought was an unneeded improvement from GGS so I know bakery is full but I already knew that since I just filled it. Would rather aGGS had staff working on more gold locks and making premium feeds easier to access.   :)

    First quirk happens randomly to me, sometimes when I water coop tree, sometimes when I switch to other computer programs (answering my private mail or such) - sometimes when I walked away from the computer for a longer time, come back, screen is black so I have to click to load it again and there is somebodies info box .... Will try to keep an eye on it if I can discover some other rhyme or reason.

    And again: recognizable! This "second quirk" LuckyViolat is talking about happens on the Dutch server too. Numbers go really small (can't read them anymore) - changing farms or clicking out of the stock overview helps.

    I get the player popup when someone has gifted my farm, so go look for the sparkles when you get one.  I LOVE it. My old eyes would often miss seeing them before. 

    Edited to add.  My coop gifts a lot and since this started, I have only gotten one coop mail about "thanks for the gift, but I missed who sent it"
  • amandaps (INT1)amandaps (INT1) INT1 Posts: 300
    Same here ... also got the popup after being gifted by someone (which, as Adoptapet mentioned, was actually quite useful).
    It happened more than once when I was being sparkled, however, it does not happen every time.
    Also happened when I'm watering trees, but again, not consistently.

    I have the 2nd quirk.  The small print in the bakery.  I haven't seen the other thing.

    The player popup even appears when I am visiting coop mates.  I would gift you if I could so you could see it.  But, first I have no karma charms, and second, I am on US server.
  • @adoptapet (US1)  Yay!! You is genius!!.... Just tested your theory with a coop member and you are correct, it comes up to show you who sent you sparkles.... Thats pretty cool....Making better sparkles would probably have been easier, but I am just happy now I know who to thank when I get unexpected karma from a harvest.
  • Jiesta (NL1)Jiesta (NL1) Posts: 6,557
    Never had a "sparkling gift" from anyone, but am sure I saw these player pop-up at least 6x these last days.

    Do agree that it would be nice if it would also indicate who gave you your sparkles, but then it should work properly, and not just pop-up for apparently no (other than sparkling) reason.
  • @Jiesta (NL1)  You never had sparkles? Dats so sad!

    If I was on NL1 I would sparkle you :)

    It shows who is sparkling on everyone's farms too, if they have sparkles that is.  Even non-coop players.

    Edited to add:  the popup will come up until you finally harvest whatever is sparkling, lol.  Cherries and Peaches thus last all day :)

    Thank you Scissors, I know you would!  :) Oh, I had a lot of sparkles over the last 3 years, but not during these last few days when I saw those player info box pop-up.

    Update: I have just visited a co-op member's farm and up came the player information box.  Now I know I have not sparkled them as I don't have any sparkles and I'm 100% sure that they have not sparkled my farm as they are rarely on.

    So the conundrum continues.  Why does it pop up randomly and for no apparent reason? 

    Hmmmm.  Tricky one for now.  :)
  • carjola (AU1)carjola (AU1) AU1 Posts: 252
    I have had the extremely small print happening constantly when I transfer things to bakery...this started straight away after the last update, but after you close the window & reopen, it has restored itself until you do another transfer. I have also had the player info pop up very occasionally when watering co-op tree.

    I edited my post above to explain this.  The popup will appear showing who gifted you in each farm, so when you switch farms, you will get it again.  Or I should say I do.  This happens until the item is harvested. I have one more hour to go on a sparkled sunflower.

    When I go to another player's farm, in coop or not, the popup will appear to show who gifted them. So it is displaying gift information for all gifts.  At least this is how it is working for me right now.  After the current update in progress, we will see if it continues.

    The bakery quirk is fixed, at least for me, with this update.
  • Well, I do not see the player  popups since the update..  I liked it so it must have been a bug and got fixed, sigh. :(

    Doh.... just when I could finally see who sent me a gift.... Now hafta go back to requesting better sparkles.

    Well, I have to eat my previous words, at least some of them  (yeah, I know, not the first time).  The popup was done when visiting outside my coop, but I just got one on my own farm~!~! Happy dance.  I do like them.

    And thanks for the sparkles here - I love sparkles anywhere :) Have to with 2 small grand-girls, roflmbo.

    Image result for diamonds
    I also like sparkles, but prefer the kind surrounded by gold !!  SmileySmiley
  • Yay I got another pop-up & had sparkles from that person, so its still working.

    I was on GF with no pop-up & I changed to MF and it popped up there, so possibly it doesn`t pop-up when you are given the sparkles, but when you change to another farm (yours or someone elses) after the Sparkles have been placed.

    For me, at any rate, the popup appears on whatever farm has the gift.  So, gift on MF, popup there.  Gift on Flower farm popup there when I go there.  I like it an awful lot.  Makes it so easy to thank them, or if I am lucky enough to have some gifts, to gift them right back!!
