Bug Report: Site Ownership Reset After Phase Change

[DarkMyth.]

I want to report a bug that has been happening with the new sites system. It occurs when a site is drained to very low HP (for example, under 1%)

In the attached screenshot, a DV site was drained down to 160 HP. When the attacking clan continued draining in the next phase, instead of capturing the site, it immediately went back to DV ownership. This forces players to drain the site all over again from full HP

Why this is a problem:

• It wastes players’ time, especially in wars when a clan might spend minutes draining a site only for ownership to reset
• It makes site battles unfair, because the defending clan keeps ownership even when attackers have effectively done all the work

Expected behavior:
When a site is drained in the new phase, it should transfer ownership to the clan that actually drained it, not reset back to the previous owner

How many times did this happen in succession?

If you're trying to replicate it, it will likely succeed every time. This also applies to gates that are already claimed by clans.
For example, if Clan A owns a gate and Clan B drains it to 0%, then drains it again in the next phase, the gate gets reset to 100% and is still owned by Clan A. I'm not sure if the gate level also remains the same.

Not able to reproduce it. On the inital post it might have happend that DV relaimed that building before the a clan could drain it on the next conflict. So that would be regular behaivor

but in order for DV to reclaim building that was already DV would there not have to be few phase transitions before anyone attempts to drain it/remove it from DV?

Wasn't it a DV gate already? How can DV (re)claim a gate they already own.

That's not the point. In the screenshots it only happened as I could use DV as an example, but even if it wasn't DV but any clan, the bug would still happen the same and the site will go back to the clan which was already holding it completely full HP again.

And no what you're saying is wrong, DV released the site and the clan drained it until 160 HP (no time to finish before the phase was over) and next phase they attacked to take the site and it went back to DV, which is the bug I'm talking about. If any site was 1 hit away from being reclaimed, it's going back to whatever was already holding it

Whenever there's a same situation with a site, the same bug is happening, just nobody has mentioned it until now

DV can claim a site it previously held, that is per se not a bug it is just the thing with random.
But about the restored HP of the building that is something we couldn't reproduce on our own.

 

[Luka Patajac]

Nobody said DV claiming their own site by itself is a bug but doing so if specific amount of HP is left on site when protection phase starts in next phase no matter whom drains it since HP is so low DV will automatically claim it instead of it going to clan that drained it.

At least that's what I see from what was written here:

Site HP left on 100ish or below before it can be claimed->next attack phase starts->someone drains it->DV takes it and restores full HP

Now if site was previously held by DV for couple of phases and someone decided to drain but failed before attack phase finished and DV immediately took it back because it was that way for few phases prior that is normal DV behavior tbh.(by immediately i mean next attack phase starts->Its seen as green and on map its on "retaken mode")

we could not find the issue and it was not reproducable. When it happens again when 2 clans are involved please write here which map ,building, server and time it happened. So we can check the logs
