Add this to the Client.cpp file for the world compile. Under case OP_EnterWorld: // Enter world.

Replace the Current call "charid = database.GetCharacterInfo(char_name, &tmpaccid, &zoneID);" with this

Code:

long LOCounter;
			do {
			    charid = database.GetCharacterInfo(char_name, &amp;tmpaccid, &amp;zoneID);
				LOCounter++;
			}while ((zoneID == 0) &amp;&amp; (LOCounter > 10000));

This will call the database until the ZoneID is not equal to 0 or the counter hits 10001. You may need to tweek the counter number for your server depending on how fast or slow it is.

**SO

Id just like to point out that i was having the zoneid=0 problem, and was getting frustrated, Until i noticed that:
}while ((zoneID == 0) && (LOCounter > 10000));
should be
}while ((zoneID == 0) && (LOCounter < 10000));

Its checking if LOCounter is LESS THAN 10k and entering the loop if is, and increasing it by 1 every time it loops until its GREATER THAN 10k.

And that's rogean's math lesson of the day. tks
