The Condo Rentals store has stopped spawning in newly posted Condos and Game World maps. The “New Releases” and “New Maps” shelves have paused and no longer show any newly posted condos.
Steps to Reproduce
Walk into the rental store. The newest maps are stuck at SDNL Annul and Jeopardy.
What I expected to happen
The most recent condos and workshop maps hare shown.
What happened
The new map sections seem to be stuck around May / April in the rental store.
Not sure if this will help tracking the issue down, but there seems to be a general problem with the Steam back end at present. For example trying to browse for a mini golf map will just fail as below.
When it does work is seems to show an almost random selection of maps, sometimes very few other times far more. There does not seem to be any way to trigger either behavior. This is particularly true of the trending tab, which can show just 6 or several pages apparently at random.
I have also noticed that while uploading a map to Steam works, it then does not download the small file linking your subscription to the new version. You have to unsubscribe and then resubscribe to force Steam to do so.
While this is not a huge issue you do need to be aware of it otherwise you will not be able to full test (as in host) the new version. I do not know if this means that folk who have subscribed to the map are not getting the new version, or if it is just creators,
For some reason Steam is not showing all the maps in the trending category at first but does once a different search is carried out. I’ve no idea if this helps with this issue, but its a bit odd.
Many thanks Mac. I wonder why they don’t just publish the fact they are going to change things? Or maybe they do? Anyway hope its not too much work to solve.
What a pain, and one that would be so easy for them to solve. While I’m glad that it didn’t take that long to sort out doing so must take away development from other projects.
All they had to do is post a news article somewhere. How long would that have taken them?
