Re: Strange problem with property auction.
Hello,
I am writing as I spotted a really strange problem with the property auction. It's about the Alai Flats, Flat 14 in Thais and the auction ended at todays morning - 08:45 CEST or something (don't remember exactly). I have bidded that property at the night and when I woke up I expected to see this property having a new owner (not exactly me). What is strange that still nobody owns this property and also it's on auction again: "The house has a size of 20 square meters. The monthly rent is 900 gold and will be debited to the depot of Thais. This house is currently being auctioned. No bids have been submitted so far."
I had my money for the property in depot locker (that silver one) in Thais. Moreover, I am sure that I was not the only one bidding this property, so even if I woudln't win it then somebody else would.
Can someone explain what exactly happened? This property shouldn't be back to the market.

Thanks.
maybe the auction was won by someone who had no money?

Re: Strange problem with property auction.
Btw. Maybe it would be a good idea to change the code little bit into the way that when someone doesn't have enough money then the property goes to the person with the 2nd highest bid. The actual way is just perfect for trolls.

Not really, this second highest bid player may also win another auction after being overbided etc. Auction spoiling is prohibited by rules, there is an auction ban implemented too.
