Hey guys -

Three questions regarding zoning that have come up.

1) When I zone using zone borders from one zone to another (i.e. Wakening Lands into Kael), I am placed in the safe spot of a random zone (i.e. Rathe Mountains). Is this a bug / error, and is there anything I can do to make it zone right? I followed all the instructions on this board and the readme's, and my 0.3.6 is running well otherwise with no startup errors.

2) When I use #zone Kael, I am placed in what appears to be the zone's safe spot. However, I am completely unable to move. While I can cast spells, all I see is a giant in front of me, and another giant I can target using F8. I've tried the #goto commands, but since I don't know any locs for the zone, all that happens is that I bounce in the spot I'm in and take some random damage. Does anyone have a fix for this, or know of a loc that will work?

3) When I zone into certain zones (i.e. Sanctus Seru, Vexthal, Wakening Lands), I fall through the geometry. The only way for me to avoid a loop (game takes me back to safe spot, but I keep falling) is to gravflux myself up. Ideas on fixing this?


The problems all seem related to each other - something seems to be off with the zoning configuration. Anyone with any ideas or fixes?

Thanks fellas.


And if any devs / coders are reading this, my hat off to you for doing such a spectacular job. EQEmu is absolutely kick ass...

1) known and not really addressed yet. Partly has to do with the DB.

2) Known, not sure what is causing it. It did it to me, then didn't another time... very wierd, let me know if something is figured out. 1 tid bit, you loc seems to be changing. your display isn't though :/

3) Known, partly DB releated. a ket set to #invul 1 or #flymode 1 or a few others can help. or a monk with safe fall :p
