Descriptive Problem Summary:
Recently, I met player who abused a past feature in the game. Bear with me, as this conversation was a bit long.

(OOC)Twist21491: i auto clickedd random attribute train
(OOC)Twist21491: try clicking it like 10 times
(OOC)Twist21491: it says cooling down now
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: yeah there's a cooldown
(OOC)Twist21491: exactly
(OOC)Twist21491: there wasnt before
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: you mean last time there was a bug that added it up?
(OOC)Twist21491: it would just go reallly fast

(OOC)Guest-1906013657: it wasnt naturally supposed to do that
(OOC)Twist21491: he didnt think people would think to auto click it
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: yeah
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: which is why it's a bug
(OOC)Twist21491: no.
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: it wasnt meant to be added up and go that fast
(OOC)Twist21491: a bug is something that happens un naturally
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: it was
(OOC)Twist21491: that happened naturally
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: no, you exploited a feature that he decided to fix
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: which is considered a bug
(OOC)Twist21491: no.
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: yes
(OOC)Twist21491: you're obvs like 12 and suck dick for fun
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: lol, alright mister tough guy
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: we got a badass over here folks
(OOC)Twist21491: i am mister tough guy
(OOC)Guest-1906013657: alright

Afterwards, he continued to demand I suck on his genitals, while I laughed my ass off at his immaturity. For more proof, I have also decided to provide his ranking information visually.

Now, I'm not 100% sure what constitutes a bug abuse in this game, but for the sake of fairness, I would appreciate it if this person would at least have his save file deleted or nerfed. Thank you.
(I'm also not sure if this is where this topic should be, but it relates to a bug, so yeah).

Yeah, this bug abuse allowed people to easily get high levels in an unreasonable amount of time. I fixed the problem, but fixing the save is another thing I'm gonna have to do. I've been working on a new version that will fix this problem.
Ah, alright. Thanks for the quick reply. Guess we'll just have to wait till the next version then.
A few bugs/glitches

1) second style moves dont level up, exp goes over 100% without ever leveling

2) after setting all 6 moves and then relog a few times there are only 3 move slots

3) dojo returns error still

As all of these are black belt features i realize they arent priority for fixing just wanted to let you know

thanks for the updates
Another bug to add to your list there: every once in a while when I'm doing story/style fights either myself or the NPC will try to attack with nothing (Evilhead9999 attacks with " ".... and then this appears

runtime error: Division by zero
proc name: Fight (/proc/Fight)
usr: Evilhead9999 (/mob)
src: null
call stack:
Fight(Evilhead9999 (/mob), K1 Fighter (/mob/NPC/K1/SS/K1_Fighter))
Evilhead9999 (/mob): StoryChallenge(K1 Fighter (/mob/NPC/K1/SS/K1_Fighter))
Evilhead9999 (/mob): K1 Story()
Evilhead9999 (/mob): Story Mode()

Only posted that in hopes it narrows down what causes it, since it locks the game up completely and I need to close and re-open.

Can you explain the 2nd error a little better? Do you lose moves or can't set moves anymore?
set the moves, noticed a few relogs later i only had 3 moves set and i didnt lose the moves but i had to go through ranks again to get back the move slots
like i was reset to white belt but it still said black under stats
