During the award ceremony, the music started to go all weird all of a sudden.

(+3)

When I try to view the idol profiles, the text appears on top of each other.

so i fired the idol imai sora, but shes still appearing as an idol for some reason, even though her name is in the graduated tab, and i have no way to get rid of them.

i tried restarting my game and the idol picture just went blank

I did a concert for an election and a scandal showed up right before the voting started, and it glitched out my game. 

i restarted my game and now this is stuck on here

Your game is on pause on the lower left corner press the play button

ya i knew that but i went to an older save to fix my game

I have an idol with the trait that makes negotiations for photoshoots never fail, and while it shows that it succeeded (+10% etc), the amount of money they're being paid still goes down.

(2 edits)

This actually seems to happen regardless of whether or not I have the idol - the amount displayed after you hit negotiate, whether you succeed or fail, is often incorrect and doesn't match what it should be.

Some more:

If I'm dragging an idol to socialize and that idol is automatically pulled into another room (practice, styling etc) the idol's portrait gets stuck on the mouse cursor. Nothing breaks and you can drag a different idol to make it go away. Edit: "Socialize" gets stuck on display on your room, though, and that doesn't go away.

Switching from Compact view to Full view for idols will add an extra copy of the idols list every time (so you get to the last idol and under it will be the whole menu including the "new group" button).

Compact view does not show idols in sister groups.

Canceling a practice/styling/doctor session by clicking on the idol portrait or using the idol menu will make the staffer idle. Doctors are especially buggy since their auto actions are still toggled on, and so you need to toggle a new action or deselect an old one to make them work again.

The "no critical failure" card for concerts doesn't seem to do anything at all.

Trying to release a non-election single with the election concert ready to go triggered the concert music and locked the game. Upon closing and reloading, it automatically started the concert with buggy (white square) idol portraits and didn't release the non-election single.

Edit:

More:

You can't set an automatic style in the "auto practice" menu for idols (it doesn't select the option and will de-select any other options you have).

If you click promotion/performance/spa treatment right as the day is about to end with an active queue, it replaces the next item on your queue.

If you remove items from the queue when it's full, you can't queue up additional things until the next day.

I tried playing the game for the first time and started a new game. Once I put in my information for: Gender, First Name, Last Name, Group Name  and Difficulty and hit continue, the game softlocks with just the image of the title screen image.

Same here!

I'll update the game soon, but for now you can fix it by creating this folder:

C:\Users\*username*\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data\cache\portraits

Developer

Should be fixed now

MY SHOWS ARE ONLY IN PRODUCTION, they not launched yet but my idols are losing stamina like shows (radio, tv, internet show) already launched.

It's on their job list showing how much stamina they use from shows that are not even launched.

Hello! I've been enjoying the game a whole lot but I ran into a pretty big bug.

My game is unable to progress beyond Sunday, October 18, 2018 for some reason. It won't let me save or exit from the game directly. I've tried restarting the game but nothing seems to work. 

Developer

Please upload your save file or send it to me at sadambober@gmail.com

Save files are here: C:\Users\*username*\AppData\LocalLow\Glitch Pitch\Idol Manager\data

Visual bug:
When adding songs to a concert, all songs appear to be able to be added, even songs that were added already. (like when adding songs, the songs already added to the setlist should be lighter to indicate that they've been added already). Opening the concert, adding a song, and then going back to add another song seems to fix this

In the cafe, when creating a new dish, no idols are able to be picked

- Additional info
No idols are in the main group, all are in sister groups

There's been a long running bug where if there's a scandal (such as one as blackmail/one where you can pay off a reporter/the one where people online start making memes of the billboard), even if you successfully pay the blackmailer or make a positive choice, you still incur the liability.

I made a separate thread about this, but I'm concerned it'll be missed if it's not also included in this thread, so I'm posting here as well. In the "auto practice" menu for an idol (see attached picture), you can select the first 4 options ("Don't practice" through "Dance") but not the last 5 options ("All visual params" through "Pretty").

.

One bug I seem to notice is whenever I used influence>Force Breakup, the game will freeze. The meter of the idol will show, but there will be no dialogue or progression; just stuck on the cafe image.

When I go to do tasks such as marketing for singles or pre-production for shows, there is no text by the assistants' office (displaying the action and her talent) when I drag over to her area for her to work on that task. Moving it over to there does start the process of pre-production or marketing, however.

Still waiting on the update patch notes, so I can't say what is and isn't a bug at this point (what was attempted to be a bug fix). Some of this may just require a new file due to things like friendship and influence being shifted around.

the patch notes are on twitter

Yeah, I found them through the Discord.

For some reason i cant download the latest update. It doesnt even show up for me to download it.

Developer

When you go here, you don't have the download button?  https://itch.io/my-collections

Or you can try using the app https://itch.io/app

Nevermind, i see the download button now!

With 19, tasks don't complete when the requisites are fulfilled. I just had the game freeze on me, unable to save , exit, or have time go forward. I was still able to put in certain cheats like adding money or fans.

Hi !

On the 19 update, when I pass my mouse over the idol doing activities in the compagny I get this :

Sometimes, it just a few stats that are replace by ''cute : 76'' but it's always the same number and it's for all of my idols.

I'm seeing that with mine as well.

(2 edits) (+1)

Just started playing. Encountered 4 bugs. 

1) Same as user "meimeia" - when I pass my mouse over an idol doing activities, it shows all their stats as "Cute: 76".

2) If you are in the middle of a game and load another game, all stats and unlocked/locked research "appear" to be the same as the game you were just playing until you unpause the game. E.g. If I save my game, unlock the lyrics "loneliness", and then load up the previously saved game, it will appear as if "loneliness" is now unlocked until I unpause and continue playing.

3) If you cancel a queued activity in the quick-access bar under "details", you can't queue another activity (also, is there a reason why you can't queue activities if you click them on the sidebar)?

4) There is an inconsistency between the Activities on the sidebar and the Activities on the quick access bar. My main issue is with the spa activity and how much stamina it restores. If I queue a spa activity now, is the displayed "stamina restore +2/+5/+10" a projection for the day it actually activates, or does it only reflect today (which would be misleading)?  Right after using the spa to restore 10 stamina, the mouseover under quick-access  will show that if I queued it again, it will restore another 10 stamina (which I know is untrue). Under Activities on the sidebar, it will show correctly +2, although sometimes I find this value off too. It's frustrating not knowing what I will get if I queue this activity.

Edit: 5) I found a 5th bug which is a little exploitative but a little difficult to replicate - sometimes midway through playing a game, I've loaded a previous save but the save window won't close. When I click cancel to exit the window, I found that I have indeed returned to the previous save, but I have also retained some elements of the existing game (e.g. I've retained the research points I gained in that time, and maybe money?). 

1. I'm not sure if this is a bug or on purpose, but it seems like I can't complete objectives for leveling up Promotions, before unlocking that tier. For example, I launched a radio show before I was on the "Launch a Radio Show" tier, and once I was on that tier, it wasn't counted as being completed, so I had to launch a radio show again. (Hope that made sense.) In my opinion, my actions should count, even if I do them before unlocking that tier?

2. I had max influence with an idol, and found out she was bullying another idol. I tried to influence her to stop bullying, but it told me I didn't have enough influence, despite having max influence with her. 

3. I tried moving the bullied idol into a new subgroup, but that didn't fix the bullying problem. I thought that moving idols into a different subgroup than their bully was supposed to end the bullying problem.

4. I was trying to launch a show to fulfill an idol's wish (something like Have Music TV Show with Host) but she went on hiatus, and it replaced her with another idol before I launched it. Once the idol was back from hiatus, I launched the show, but saw the new idol was hosting it. I re-launched the show with the original girl with the wish, but it didn't count as fulfilling her wish. I feel like it should count. 

5. One of my idols went on hiatus due to depression from bullying. At one point, there was two minus signs by her name - does this mean she's being bullied by two people, or is it a glitch? Also, she continued being bullied while on hiatus, so her mental stamina never recovered. I could have sworn the bullying used to stop when idols went on hiatus, but I could be wrong? Maybe they are just cyberbullying her remotely... oof.
