Hello tent owners!
If you ever get a problem with your tent whereupon you try to stand and it and the system tells you it is already standing, or you try to fold it and it says it's already folded, etc., the REASON for this is that at some point one of the flags on the system side of the tent is flipped to the other "status".
This can be caused by issues the first couple days they came out (that were fixed, but some tents got stuck beforehand), OR, I've figured out, that some folks might have more than one tent registered to the same name.
The tent operations are based on a player's registration number (it's why they must be registered to you to work), and if you have more than one tent registered, the system gets confused. Each time you fold the tent, the tent "entrance" is stored in a magic room, and when you pitch the tent, the entrance is moved to you. If you have more than one tent, the system pulls the first instance of your registration number, thus causing switches to be flipped that shouldn't be.
Upon investigating the magic tent room, I've noticed several tent entrances registered to the same player, over and over, which can cause definite headaches for your tent. If you're having this sort of issue, submit an assist, and we can get your tent straightened out. And if you use more than one at a time... don't. Locker one for later!
Obviously if other issues arise, assist also, but the "your tent is already pitched and standing" sort of error is the most common.
Thanks!
