Merchant and zonepoint troubles.

[chaos_hunter]

First I'd like to thank everyone that has made this emulator possible. You all have put a lot of work into it and it really has come a long way. :D

I am using the current .2.5 release of the emu (also happened on .2.4 pre's 5 and 6 as well) with the servers running on a seperate computer accross my lan.

Merchants:
I have dropped and readded my database serveral times as well as rebuilt the .sql file. The data that I am using is from Dwarde's .6 release combined with the db.sql from .2.5's release.(yes I am still cutting and pasting so I only have to load a single file.) For some reason my client is still crashing to the character select screen any time i access a merchant. Is anyone else seeing this error?(still)

Zonepoints:
I know that most of the zones still cannot be crossed but I thought that Freeport was working along with a few others. The only zone that works for me is Qeynos.

Coin:
Just thought of this as well. The coin that I carry is not saved from zone to zone. Has this been fixed yet or is this normal?

Can anyone give me any pointers on what I could be doing wrong.

Dwarde/Windcatcher I'm looking foward to your next releases.

Thanks for the help in advance. :)

I hope this makes sense. My head is in the clouds from a cold.

Merchants should only crash the game if there are errors in their item list (mainly when an item ID doesn't exist in the item DB). As far as I know there is only one merchant list (the one selling cloaks) that crashes the game in 0.6, this will be fixed in the next release. If all the merchants are crashing the game, there's probably something messed up in the DB.

Zonepoints still only work if they are also "hard-coded" into the zone 3D data, hopefully the developers should fix this reasonably soon (I don't know how hard this would be to fix)

I also noticed the coin disappearing bug, also that all your money tends to disappear when you buy something, even if it costs 8cp and you have several hundred platinum! I hope this will be fixed soon, for now you can get around it by only selling items when you want to buy something of similar value.
