View Full Version : Mismatched zone question

Okay, implemented the GoD zones update, most work fine. But I have a question.

I do #zone tacvi
The loader screen says "Now entering Txevu, Lair of the Elite"
/who me says Txevu
zone.exe says tacvi

Which am I really in?

I only ask cuz I'm trying to map these zones out.

Summary:
#zone tacvi goes to Txevu
#zone txevu goes to Inktu'Ta
#zone inktuta goes to Qvic
#zone qvic goes to Tacvi

So ... I'm just not sure which zone I'm actually in, I guess, or I'd go about fixing it by swapping the ZoneIDs. It isn't a case of mismatched short and long names in the database. Checked that.

From Zone:
Init: Loading zone lists, zone state or spawn list, player corpses
WARNING: No Zonepoints for this zone in database found
, timezone data - Done. ZoneID = 298; Time Offset = 0
Reading zhdr file './cfg/qvic.cfg'
Using database for safe coords.
Zone safe coords are x = 0; y = 0; z= 0
[Status] Loading Objects from DB...
[Status] Loading Ground Spawns from DB...
[Status] Loading doors for qvic ...
[Status] Done loading doors for qvic ...
Petition 0 pettime = 0
[Status] Zone Bootup: qvic (298)

qvic is indeed zoneid 298, so where is it getting Tacvi from?

I r confused :(

Edit: Just need to know what EQ will pull out of the database for loading the zone. Will it pull based on the zoneid, the shortname, or what? Because I'm lost as to why it would say the incorrect zone name, when the zoneid shortname and longname all match in the database. Do the zonefiles themselves have ingrained zoneids? /boggle
