Constant Bunny Jumps?

ShadowLost · #1 10-15-2002, 05:23 PM

First:

Everytime I log in, my char is generated in mid-air and falls to the ground for damage.

Second:

When I view other players, they are constantly appearing above the ground and falling...over and over and over...

Third:

When I use the #zone command I am transported to the zone, but I may also get stuck in some area that has the background color of the zone, and that is it (I.E Velketor in Velious and the screen is pure light blue and I can't go anywhere).

Fourth:

I zone into fairly common zones and suddenly I drop through the level and then land at the pre-designated "safe point" for that zone. How can I fix it so I will not fall through.

If you have answers to any of these I would appreciate any advice.

Many thanks in advance,

Also:

Other people can't seem to stay in my server when I'm not there. Is it necessary or do I really have to always be there?

Also also:

Is the immediate disconnect after camping intentional as well?

Also also also:

How do I stop the multiple spawns of the same NPC. Like in freeport most of the guards at the gate have been spawned around 8 times!

Thanks again,

1st.... What zone? What class? What race?

2nd.... Thats most likely lag. What connection, What zone, What class, What race?

3rd.... Some zones are like that. I dont know what to tell you, search for getting stuck or something like that. I dont think there is an answer for this yet.

4th....Fix the safe loc (I think) for that zone. Either the safe point or the starting point in the database. Not completely sure about this one either, so dont count on this fix for sure.

Also.... No clue

Also also....I think so

Also also also....That might be fixed in the next version. Until then... target them and type #kill

So there is no way to fix the problem of multiple spawns without going around "#kill"ing everyone in town? It seems kind of tedious and unnecessary.

And I was logged into my own server, in west freeport, as a dark elf wizard. I was looking at a human warrior on a 56k (I have DSL). So it shouldn't really be lag.

When I camp and log back in, I appear like 15 feet off the ground and drop, is there no way to fix that?

Those are the main annoying points. Please if anyone has any suggestions, I would appreciate them.

only way is to go throught the database and remove them (feel free).

about lag.. Are you running the client on the same pc as the server? if so that will cause lag. The EQ client was made to grab as much of the pc's resources at it will alow. that will cause lag.

when you come in from a camp yer char starts you at 0 z then you fall to the ground...no way to fix it.

so it is completely normal to fall to my death over and over and over? This doens't seem like it should be so, if anyone can help me? I'm in Shar Vahl and I start way up high and then fall to my death...that's not right.

Please help!
