Problems with voting

[JimSocks]

In the chat log, my party tonight reported that they couldn't vote when /vote was used. I had six players, and none of them could click a vote.

Didn't know if anyone else had reported this yet.

[Jiminimonka]

I tested this out, worked ok.

Ruleset? Extensions?

[JimSocks]

Yeah, that would probably be helpful eh? So dumb...

Ruleset: 5e
Extensions: NPC Flavors (adds interesting tidbits to humanoid NPC names in the combat tracker)

And that's it!

I was able to uncover a minor issue where one of the circles didn't display on the player client when voting; but otherwise, the voting worked when I clicked on the circle. I only had 2 players connected at the time (in addition to the GM); since that's what I have for testing.

* Does it happen every time?
* Can any of the players vote (by clicking on white bubble field), or are all of them blocked?

Only had the one opportunity to test with the players, but all of them reported non-functionality

[Moon Wizard]

* Can you try next session to see if it repeats?
* Can you give me more information on the scenario? (ruleset/extensions/etc.)
* What are the user names of the connected users? (You can use /info to get that information at any time they are connected.)

Thanks,

We had the same issue with the PF2 ruleset yesterday - no extensions loaded. One person (out of six) was able to vote, the others not.

[JimSocks]

I will test this again the next session we have using the fifth edition rules, though I am afraid that won’t be for another two weeks as all of my sessions between now and then are within the alien RPG.

The original issue happened within these parameters:
Ruleset: 5e
Extensions: NPC Flavors (adds interesting tidbits to humanoid NPC names in the combat tracker)

The biggest problem I've observed with the voting system is not being able to track WHO is voting. Having the bubble filled in with the players die color seems like an obvious missing verification.

The original design philosophy was that this would be an anonymous vote.

[JimSocks]

Agreed- I like the anonymous voting. We can vote by voice if we want in-the-open voting, or even just in the chat via typed vote. This is the only option for anonymous voting.

Note this issue happened for me tonight with 6 players connected, 4 could vote, 1 could not (the other didn't say). I am using 5E, but I did have a lot of Mad Nomad's extensions. Will try to test with a new campaign and other players later this week.

[JimSocks]

I just wanna say you guys are such a great community team for us.

Super responsive and helpful. I’ve been impressed again and again. Damned, Trenloe, Moonwizard, Lordentrails, JohnD, hats off.

(I LITERALLY just opened my eyes from sleep and the list above is off the top of my super groggy head so if I forgot to mention a particular name it’s not because I don’t see you out here killin it, it’s because sleepy brain.)

If you want a type of vote that shows the player who will say yes, try the ready extension. It pops up a window on the GM side of any player who hits the ready button that you trigger, they won't see anyone else who hits ready, but ad a GM it can be a way to do a vote based on actual players spots.

Linux Unity server, 5e Ruleset, no extensions. Out of six players, one player got a vote selected. Others couldn't.

EDIT: After testing.
It's die rolling that's causing it. I just tested and voting works fine until someone rolls a die. That causes the vote to stop working.
