Hi Jessie, that sucks, thanks for reporting it. I've created this bug report here as it's easier to track like this than in a comment thread.

I am unable to reproduce your problem, can you provide a bit more detail? If you can, tell me:

* How had research timers been used up to that point? Had you:
** Seen the timers when you logged in
** Seen an automatic notification
** Manually showed the timers with the keybind or /timers
** Or not seen any timers at all up to that point?
* Your UI scale setting. You can get the exact value with the slash command below at [1], but a guess based on the position of the slider (25% or whatever) would be fine too.
* Screen resolution you use for the game

This info will really help to track down the probs

In addition to the above, try the following procedure:

* Find a chest
* Solve it (presumably that works)

* Enable PL Research Timers
* /reloadui
* Find a chest
* Solve it (presumably that does NOT work, if this issue is straightforwards )

Anyone else who comes across this bug also feel free to submit the same info

Just tried to reproduce at a low resolution (something like 1024x768), with middle and maxed UI scale, with 6 timers on the screen, and it works fine for me :S

Same again at 1920x1200, middle UI scale

*** Issue Resolved ***

When it happened, I was in Rift, NW of the Fullhelm Fort Wayshrine.

I disabled all addons and the animations worked.

Re-enabled addons one by one, reloading the ui after re-enabling each one, and after turning Research Timers back on, the animations stopped again.

It does appear though that the maintenance that was done on the NA server the other day resolved the issue.

I re-enabled the add on again, went back to the same chest NW of the wayshrine in the Rift and it is working again, correctly.

Whew!!! I really hated having the timers disabled.

Thank you!

Cool good to hear it's working again Not sure how the maintenance would have affected things, might just be coincidence, but here's to hoping the bug is gone anyway.

I think this is the same bug as #907 [1]. Suggest anyone else who has this issue posts a message in that bug thread. A fix is being worked on but I am not clearly able to reproduce the issue so it might take a while to iron it out.
