What gameplay feature is this bug affecting?
Hunting

What's the issue? Please include any error messages you receive and as much detail as possible.
I've sent out four hunts today on this account and have brought back a GMO chicken in every single hunt (4 total so far and counting) which feels... Like something might be wrong.

Either I am experiencing a ridiculous amount of luck which I guess is not impossible, or something has caused GMO chickens to run rampant in hunting rewards in far excess of their estimated odds.

Any links relating to this bug? For example, if a particular lion is bugging, what is the link to that lion?


Any screenshots you can provide us with?
I didn't start screenshotting until recently, but I'll start doing so now. This was my most-recent hunt returned with my fourth GMO chicken.



I've been donating the GMO chickens to my clan's hoard so this is proof I've gotten four so far (not including the one I just got above which I haven't done anything with) - All GMO chickens were donated immediately after I hunted them so the timestamps validate that I've gotten all these chickens just today.



Please provide us with step by step explanation how this bug happened so we can attempt to replicate it. If it's complex, please include screenshots where possible:
I've been hunting in the Plains tile for a hunting quest and that's what's making me bring back all these GMO chickens, so if other folks can hunt in plains and get GMO chickens, then that would be how to replicate it successfully.

I'm also getting more rare prey in general too, like giraffe(when sending 4 or 5 lionesses) and hippo.

Wish michael or someone would come in and investigate this lol

Before my lions stopped pulling anything but smalls or GMO chickens, and I was forced to have to use them.
I was ending up with stacks of 10+ chickens after a couple days of hunting

My girls have brought 3x GMO chickens since rollover, so 3 within 6 hours. I'm having to non stop hunt to support my prides on both accounts. It's so widespread i actually assumed it must be deliberate but apparently it has not been changed on purpose by the developers.
I have also had singular lionesses bringing two large carcasses home by themselves on some occasions, and also teams of five level 20 lionesses bringing home two 1 use dik dik's on others. These really are glaring inconsistencies and I'm recording hunts in my journal as of today in case It's needed.
I hope that a chance to try fix this issue arises for the team.

Unsure if it's been brought up in the other comments, but the switch with hunting rates lines up pretty much exactly with when the "Follow the Injured" hunting item was added. I'm wondering if prey rates were inverted somehow, as the results that are supposed to be common (such as elephant calves) are rare, and the results that are supposed to be rare (failed hunts, GMO chickens) are common.

Regardless it's causing a site-wide lack of food. At this point I either have to spend 10gb every 5 days to feed my main pride (maybe a little less if I get a few decent hunts), when I previously could manage that just by hunting+sell the spare small junk to the monkey. Really disappointed it's been an issue for two months now.

I’m experiencing the same thing. For a very rare prey item, I find it odd I get them every day while before, I only got them once in a while…

I've implemented a quick and dirty fix for this until I can look into it more thoroughly. Thanks for your patience guys!

I'm not sure if the fix is working Abbey. Today I've gotten 3 from 19 finished hunts total so far. screenshot of my GMO chicken log today for proof. Yesterday I got 2.

Okay, I've gone through the code and think I found the error - tested it a bit on our dev environment and it seems to be working. Please let me know if this seems fixed for you :)
