Posting this with TornTools enabled.

Browser: Google Chrome

I have recently been getting a strange bug when I change to an old tab, I'll let the video speak for itself.

YouTube video 5ZSwWFmXFWc
It's almost as if all the changes to my bars that have happened since I changed tab happen all at once after I reopen the old tab.

At the time of the video I had torntools enabled but I have been able to replicate something similar with it disabled.
The tab I changed to was opened at least an hour before reopening, and I had been self hosped during that time.

Would be good if others are able to recreate this bug, let me know if you need more info.

Edit: As known now, not just the bars, but the entire tab (hit effects, icons, jail etc) replays actions

Mentions: Background updating action cache

happening to me also over the past few days.

 

I leave for work in the morning leaving game open on tabs on the pc at home. I got to work for 8-10 hrs, when i come home all the changes made during the day, via my phone, happen on the pc. so about 8-10hrs of actions

Happened to me, including the "you're being hit" flashes. Was only in a time span of a few minutes, max 15 min. Google Chrome on a Mac.

I was going to report this too!
the thing is it is NOT just the bars.
the whole game is acting like this, for example some one attacked u, u will see the effects of it while the time passes.

it exactly like a time lapse of everything that happened since u last opened the tab.

For me it was a few hours, however I've had it happen with a shorter time as well.

If someone has a more suitable name for the bug I'm happy to change the thread title :)

Also, company page reloads when you are in hospital. I was sent to hospital on another tab and medded out and when I switched back to the tab it reloaded the page saying I was in hospital even though I wasn't at that point. Just seems to be replaying all actions and associated actions

I'm getting the exact same issue as described by others here, on PC (Chrome browser). (I haven't noticed this issue on mobile at all, though I rarely use torn on mobile so don't feel confident saying that that means anything.) The length of time I've been away from a tab doesn't seem to matter - it could happen after a just few minutes of not being on that tab, or after many hours. It does not happen to all torn tabs at all times. I have occasionally refreshed (F5) the problem tabs and also completely closed the tabs and reopened them, and the issue seems to pop back up at random. I have also restarted my browser and computer at various times and it has continued to happen.

ah yea , same thing here. chrome does this.

 

very noticeable in wars, the inactive tabs will show me dying/healing/reviving/getting all the hits effects at once 

 

all energy/nerve/happy counters move up and down rapidly too

Same here, on Firefox PC.

Every time I open a new tab all the actions performed in other tabs replicate here.

  • Let's say I have 150e and open 3 tabs with 3 targets.  Then I 1-hit kill the 1st target.  Open the 2nd tab and it will show 150e, then go down to 125e.
  • Then I fight the 2nd target but lose, then open the items page, use 2 bags, go back to the 2nd target and kill.
  • When I open the 3rd target tab it will show 125e, then show me being hit and health decreasing, me hosping, me dehosping, e to 100 e then some hitting and e to 75 e.

It is annoying while in wars when I have several targets ready in different tabs, because you need to quickly attack and you don't know if you're being attacked or if it's just the effect of previous fights.

Personally, I like that it does this.. it's cool to watch. Especially when I've been doing a lot of warring or trading
