It would be nice if they put this feature back in… where Meetup participants could give multi-ride-Ons during the meetup. As it stands, this is only enabled for the Meetup leader. Some of my meetups have 30+ riders, and that’s a lot of clicking…
(Note: I’m talking just about Meetups, not about Group events).
I would expect ride on bombs through the companion app to work in meetups.
They work only for the Meetup leader, not for the rest of the riders.
Companion app is limited to 5 at a time,… is it not?
Yes, I believe so.
What happens when you hit the button around your arrow, nothing?
What happens when I touch the phone screen outside the circle? There is no circle around the arrow. If I tap the arrow, nothing happens. Do you want me to post a screen shot from my participation in my upcoming Friday meetup (if I can get wake up in time - these east coast guys start dog gone early… 7:15am Pacific Time is their 10:15am).
In any case…
Meetup participants can not give rideOns by tapping the phone.
Please - screenshot of your map view in ZCA would be helpful.
It could be that you need to zoom in/out a little bit (unless it works fine on other rides).
Indeed it looks fine on all other rides. The circle is missing when I’m a participant of a Meetup. I’ll try to capture it tomorrow morning.
Here’s a screen cap from the CompApp. No circle to tap to give multiRideOns.
When I tap the triangle that is me, nothing happens, or I end up selecting another rider.
Also, in the second image, a screen cap from the PC program, there are big +/- time offsets of the riders around me. This has been a problem on meetups for quite some time too. The offsets should be 0 (zero).
I could swear I had the ride bomb in meetup. This weekend, December 17, 2023, it only allows me to select one rider no matter how zoomed in I am. Thoughts?
I should add that I am in a workout at the same time but others are bombing.
Chiming in on this - I’m usually meetup leader in my group, where it works normally, but yesterday I was meetup participant and there was no white circle around my arrow on companion. I could click on individual white dots and send ride ons, but not bomb the five people around me.
I actually found this strangely distressing as we’d encounter people who would give us ride-ons and I couldn’t bomb them back and their dots would disappear off the screen.
They still haven’t fixed it or changed it. I lead a meetup every week, and as leader, I can multi-RideOn the riders around me. But as a participant in another meetup, I have to click each and every rider on the list separately. It’s exhausting.
Also, the messaging colors are terrible - I can’t read white text on a bright green background. If the Zwift Requirements Team members are reading this, please fix that as well.
I would like to bump this topic. It is so annoying not having the option to give ride on bombs like in grouprides or when free riding.
@shooj can you please report this bug?
iOS Companion app v3.63
@Jurgen_Grusdat and others seeing this issue:
Is everyone reporting using the iOS version of Companion?
Q: are you changing the zoom settings on the Companion map at all?
I used Companion v 3.63 (Android) to drop in to a Pace Partner ride and successfully sent two Ride on bombs less than a minute apart. This is the what the default zoom scaling looks like for me:
I had this last weekend (so version before the one released this week) on a meetup, using iOS. Tried all zoom levels and didn’t get the circle to give multiple rideons at one time.
Same for me. Also iOS, also tried all zoom levels. It is a very old bug.
To be clear, this is just a meetup issue. I can sent ride-on bombs in group rides, in free rides or pace partner rides.
Finally we’re getting traction on this issue. Thanks for keeping it active so Zwift can address it.
Thanks for the followups everyone. We’ll look into it.
Still there in game version v1.81.
