Sales Statistics Error

[MrDash]

I just wanna highlight two issues in the sales statistics (Artists > Stats > Sales statistics).

1) I have released 14 singles so far but it said only 7 singles.

2) The total album sales per continent is completely wrong. So, the displayed total albums sold overall is wrong as well.

I believe the issue with sales data has been fixed by me earlier today but ill check.

[MrDash]

I created a new game with the new patch v024.

There seems to be an error in the streaming numbers for singles here. The sales statistics is showing higher streaming sales than the actual figures (in the artist profile)

I spent so long on this one lol To be fair mostly on albums. Ill take a look today.

ok I found an anomaly and have fixed this for next patch. Was due out today but now pushed back for Easte Sunday.

[MrDash]

I can still see this in my game? Does this mean it wont fix past sales?

And also the "no. of singles" shown up there is correct for some artists but not for others.

Eg: They have only released 1 song, but its 2.

This is what I see in the v025 update.

- My single "Tears of Rage" has 3 different sales totals going on.

1) Under "View single data" > "Total sales" = 306,953

2) Under "Stats" > "Single statistics" = 320,167

3) Under "Stats" > "Sales statistics" = 323,227

 

 

 

- However, the album sales are all equal and displaying correctly at all three places.

Old data cannot be correct if thats what you mean. There is just no way I can do it.

Even if the single is still selling? I mean, it's not off sale yet.

[Mark]

If the single was on sale already at any point before the patch the data for that time is stored so cannot be edited (well without a massive amount of work) so any new data on top wouldnt correct the problem. If it was released after the patch it should be fine.

 Okay I get what you mean ... another new game then lol.

[MrDash]

I have an update here.

I have released another single after the patch. And the total sales for singles are still different at all 3 places?

Nevermind, I better start a new game and check again.

So the problem is that one another relaese is added it will always be off right. Annoying as it is once sorted and I hope it now is I wont need to go near it again.

[MrDash]

Okay so I completely removed the game and did a fresh installation and began a new game with v025.

I cross-checked the sales numbers for a pre-made single by Ed Sheran in the places mentioned previously, and now they are all showing the correct figures, including in the top release sales list under "Music World".

The ONLY part that isn't matching up with the rest of them is the Total Sales under "Stats" > "Single statistics". I even confirmed this with another artist, Lil Wayne.

I really hope that you can take another look at this area here.
