My turnover time is 9AM EST. What's going on?

Anyway I have about 4 million euros missing (4001437 to be exact).

Midnight?

Howcome the end of the month, and therefor the costs, come off mine at 1 in the afternoon GMT for me then?

thats the problem we are having at the moment. I think its now split so you pay half of the costs at 12 hour intervals therefore in 24 hours the costs are paid. I just realized that it may be this

Are you sure? Ive been up till the other 1/2 of it comes off, and nothing happend, and all the money goes at the end of the month for me, anyway.

Does it help that Im in world 4?

As far as time is concerned, the game month turns over at 1PM GMT because StephenM is Irish (can't remember where I heard that) and Ireland runs on GMT+1.

I'm not such an experienced member as others here, but I had assumed your monthly expenses (Gate leases, salaries etc.) were paid at the month rollover. Therefore on all other days of the month you earn whatever your DOP is, but on the first day of the month you pay the expenses that (for me anyway) are several times larger than your DOP. But seeing as regular members are noticing it as an anomaly, I am beginning to question it myself.

I suppose we have to wait for an admin to clarify this.

Ireland is on GMT+1? I thought that was just France.

You are correct in that monthly expenses are payed on the 1st and so, for most players, cash drops below what it was on the 24th.

The problem here seems to be that it drops much further than your monthly expenses.

Apologies for not getting a good chance to look into this earlier, it's been a busy week.

I've identified a bug which may be the cause of this discrepancy, and believe i have fixed it (or at least a part of this overall issue). There was a slight typo between the part of the script which removed the cash for maintenance, and the part of the script which showed the value for maintenance in the cash flow log. This resulted in an under displayed value for maintenance. I have now corrected that error. this was DEFINITELY wrong in the code, however it may not (unfortunately) be 100% of the cause of the discrepancy. I'm going to keep poking about a bit, but this is likely a significant part of the discrepancy.

So will we get a credit back for our missing money or do you expect us to write that off?

He's saying the money displayed in the finance screen was wrong.

Chavaquiah · **Reply #26 on:** April 12, 2008, 09:50:00 pm

Yes. Besides, if the bug affected all players, there's no real harm.

I require now 5.5million back as its just happened again. went from negative 800k (due to buying planes and gates) to -1.1million after just renting a 50k gate and route of less than 1000nm. This is highly unusual :?

It's the second time the clock stopped ticking, although Worlds 5 and 6 are supposed to be a day behind the others and we are. Maybe the clock stopped everywhere.
