You have already collected this?

Post by valeriesusanne »

"You have already collected this"
Not sure if this is a bug, something changed, or something I've never encountered before (in 9+yrs)
but this is the message I just got when I clicked on a geyser. It was gushing and inspection said 3 available.
I HAD collected from it... a week or so ago. Is this a thing now?

Collect from another salt node, then you can collect from the "already collected" -node.

Obfuscated or poorly explained mechanic, to prevent those alts that have HF next to the node and only ever log in to collect from it.

Good mechanic, just the error message is completely unhelpful.

Interesting! And good to know, thanks :)
Hard to believe I've never come across this message in all these years,
