Forgive my lack of protocol. Don't know if I should post this else where. New to the forum, not to the game.
That said since I updated this morning to 0.7.7 I have not been able to catch a cab ride. The driver is forever busy. Tried sleeping for a day, wandered to new zones. Did a couple of jobs. No good.
Cyber Sword - Custom Difficulty - 20% Hostility, best economy, no exp loss.
Thanks from,

Thanks for the post advice

The protocol was perfect, except that your subject line was a little vague. I have changed it, and hope that you do not mind, but if you went and modified your initial post giving it a more descriptive subject, that will help. I cannot modify your post, you see. This issue has been reported before, and grrrrr, Cory thought that he had it squashed. Sad to see that it is still with us. see: startradersrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=ckrpgtalk&thread=1418&page=1So, well, walk around for a week. I suggest going to Tuckmore's Saloon and working out of there because practically everything he wants doing is a very short walk away. And you can cancel any jobs that aren't close... Wish I could be more helpful, Grävling ps what is your model of phone and the OS and firmware used ? |

Added the additional info asked with original post when I modified the subject name. But so. That it's more obvious.
LG Optimist One
Android 2.3.3
Firmaware?
Thanks for the posting tip and hope that helps. Also, thanks for the advice on how to deal with it. I hope to be able to let y'all know anything of issue and be useful in that aspect. I know updates are often and you address things. I use to appear on the FB page. Had ST Elite for over a year now and CK Elite within a a couple weeks of release. Trese Brothers rock.
Added To post 30 min later:
Tested another character and set up, taxi is fine.
The Cyber Sword still isn't able to taxi. So it is the one file, not all.

Do you have another taxi driver?if so call him and see if he will pick you up.if not you either are to hot to trot or you haven't waited long enough.its a handicap to prevent abuse.

No, I think he has the old bug. All the taxis are busy, not complaining about heat, and you sleep in a hotel and they are still busy. Even King and Jennings who don't care about heat are busy and stay busy.

My heat is so low I am freezing. I could kill a gang in front of a camera right now and all would be fine. Slept, more then once. Only thing I haven't done is call a different Taxi. Never had more then one.

I have a different taxi issue. The King and Jennings after being called, are still busy even after 3 hours. Is this a bug or by design?

If they are still busy after you wake up, you have the bug. They are supposed to take longer than Benny, Quarter Speed and McFly to recharge, but I am not sure how long it is. Sleeping at a safehouse/hotel is longer. Indeed my rule of thumb is that you get 1 ride out of King or Jennings between sleeps, and for all I know it is coded that way. |

The King and Jennings worked like any other cabbie with the exception to not get affected by heat. This is new one. I'll Take your advice and sleep in a safehouse to see what happens.

Some of them won't drive for you more than once every few days. Some of them recharge after just a few hours. All depends on the contact in question. Cooldown is an integer expressed as the minimum number of turns. Reputation and location drive the additional cooldown period. Reviewed the code again -- the old bug is definitely 100% gone. It is possible there is some type of issue with custom difficulties, which was introduced after the cooldown logic was unified. The question for the OP is which character and taxi contact. |

So taxis can now take 1 day for them to ferry you to your next destination. Can we find out the new cooling times for cabbies  |

I don't think that it takes them 1 day to get you to your next destination. It just takes them 1 day (or however long it is) to decide to come pick you up.

Time to Drive = How Many Turns Used
Cooldown = How Many Turns They are "Busy" After You Call
