Is the social features working already?

Because I don't have idea on how to add people on that thing...

Seems hit or miss for me. I've successfully added someone from the recent players, but can't add another.

It's a bit counterintuitive in the sense that it makes use of context menus. In the "RECENT" tab, you actually need to right-click the people you want to add as contacts. Also, in the search box below you can enter somebody's name and press <Enter>. It will add that name to the player list as if it's somebody you played with recently, but only if the name you typed exists of course. Then you need to right-click that name.

It's definitely a bit rough still.

Important notice: it's have to be UberNet login, not just visible name.

I still can't do it. There isn't nothing into my recent tab to click on it, not a single name even after a match. Maybe a bug?

It worked before for me. The moment I actually wanted to test if I can get PA Stats to work with games where people use the "Invite" feature it utterly broke and since then it fails to send/accept friend requests or chats. Also shows everyone who already was on my friendlist as online. But I doubt they really are.

That does sound like a bug. Could you tell us a little more about your situation? Were you playing 1v1, teams, or ffa? Is your account linked to steam? Did the game disconnect at some point or did something unusual happen? I don't know what information will be useful, but I think these are reasonable questions to start with.

They sometimes seem to move to offline if they log off, but when you connect to chat everyone always shows as on. The good news is it will save messages and show them to people when they log in.

it's bug-ladden, shows offline when people are online and online when they're not. invites work only half of the time ect... (no mods)

Well basically my recent tab on social is empty since the beggining and if I write the name of someone there I just don't have nothing back after it. I can take a print if you guys want it.

This is probably due to mods, I've found that the easiest fix is remove all the mods manually and reinstall them, making sure that they're unto date and compatible with the new release.

Thanks alphasite! I had a few mods non updated and when I fixed that the social tab started to work!

Can you tell us what mods you updated?

EDIT:
So I yet again disabled all my mods to test and it shows no difference in behavior.

Looking into the debugger I find things like this:

and after F5 in the debugger:

Or similar messages that basically look like the backend is not working.

After multiple refreshes of the uberbar scene in the debugger I got it to work it seems, now it tells me I am authorized and the friend request went through.
But only in one of the two PAs
Hmm

EDIT2:
It seems after 3 reloads it connects. Not sure if it works correctly though. The friendlist of my secondary account is empty even though I accepted the request on my main and my main shows my secondary as "online" even though it is not.

EDIT 3:
Now it seems my main is working, it even realized on/off of my secondary.

EDIT 4:
The best I got is that if I send an invite from A to B, in B's log this shows up:

Chatting does not work as well though.

I give up

Fun fact: You can connect to Uber chat with any Jabber client using <uberid>@xmpp.uberent.com as the username and your uber password. <uberid> should be replaced by the username you use to log into PA of course.
I don't know if contacts will actually show up, since I didn't make any PA friends yet.
But it seems to authenticate and connect just fine.

(edit: spelling)

How many of you are experiencing seeing folks who aren't online as online? Or not getting invites?

All my friends are online 24/7 it seems, something is up with the friendlist.

Well after an initial surge of invites, I've not received any for a while and people I've invited to seem to not be responding to mine.

Not sure whether that's Uber's systems or if it's just that no-one likes me

The only time I have ever seen a friend show as offline is when they were online at the same time as me and then left. Every time I log in, all of my friends appear to be online. It seems like the log out messages do go through.

*Edit*
It's possible something changed and broke the system completely. It has been a while since I saw someone marked as offline, so I could be wrong with my guess.

Does as much as the social feature ingame: Login at best.

I have a couple issues.

1. People who are online, appear to be offline.
2. My contact list will only work on the computer I invited them to be a friend from. If I log into PA from my secondary computer, it shows I have no friends. (Using a standard Jabber client shows no friends as well)
3. I have duplicate contacts (presumably from trying to re-invite them to be my friend)
