This will help the team get closer to the cause and narrow their game code search. Until they find where the 13 minutes a day is getting added, please continue to post your findings showing start/stop times and what buildings or upgrades are involved. If we can narrow down if it's every upgrade, only certain buildings, etc it can help them hone in on where the issue lies.

I can put your uneasiness to rest on two specific issues here though.

1) There is absolutely nothing intentional going on to add time. I am hoping it is a simple value or mathematical calculation happening incorrectly.

2) Once the exact cause is identified, as long as it's possible to fix (which I'm 99.9% sure it will be) they will update the code to calculate time as intended.

So... thanks again for your help with this, it is a great example of what a community forum can accomplish within the community. Hopefully it can be resolved quickly.

Before start of Upgrading

After 5 days

The time it actually completes

5 days -> Inflated time = 37 mins 30 seconds = 2,250 Seconds
= 450 seconds per day.

In the bugs sub-forum there is a sticky which lists all known bugs they are working on. This bug is on the list, hope they fix it in the next update cos it's so annoying!

they're looking at it...but that doesn't mean they will fix it.

They don't know why at all yet.

Ppl quantifying it is nice... but it's SuperCell that need to do the work.

Yup.

Hence this thread is asking more people like myself to step forward and provide them with useful datas and information so that this fix can be speed up asap.

I have experienced (and still experiencing) this bug for 4 months already that i gave up ranting about it.
There's been a number of posts regarding it and SC can't seem to fix it. :rolleyes:

I could even provide links to all threads created on this forum by different players who complain about the upgrade time delay.
But it's just not a top priority for SC, i guess.

indeed..I don't know how many ppl they have in their various programming teams..but it would seem that the ppl in the QA team, either don't work there full time, or they're not as good as the ppl who make up new stuff!

New stuff comes out a lot more than problems get fixed.

I mean, this problem has been documented for months, yet we've had xmas, Xbow(s), DE, Heroes and now Dark troops with no progress on said problem.

4 months ? :eek:

Was this bug like there since the start of the game or something ?

Atleast this thread didn't get removed and toss in the bug sub forum, so I guess we can just continue to increase awareness about it.

I personally have a builder planner, and sometimes i will be like
... shouldn't the upgrade be done like half an hour ago.. ?

Thats where i did the forum search and for that bug thread..

I started that original thread... (Take note of the jack-waggon mocking me in the second post -- boy was he wrong.)

I've now confirmed ALL my builds take an extra 13 minutes a day.

This became an issue after a long build that added around an hour and a half, which would have been past my bedtime, so I had to gem the finish just to have it finish when it was supposed to. :mad: So, it directly cost me money to get the correct finish time...

This was when I realized what was going on and began timing my builds.

I appreciate Supercell's concern... However, ask yourself this question: If the build times were going faster than planned -- a 1 day build taking only taking 23 hours for example -- don't you think Supercell would figure this out, because it would be hitting their bottom line? Supercell has little motivation to fix this thing.
