Anyone else see a minor issue with this?
« on: April 18, 2012, 07:58:43 pm »
Mob locations appear to be a bit off...

I was getting what looked like crawler flak from above me.  So, I built myself a crate-stair to the heavens... and found...

... a crawler.  With hoverjets.  Woot!
... and then we'll have cake.

Yea, it's even cooler when the hoverjets cut out... right above you.

Was this a supply depot mission?  Monsters drop from the sky in that one.  Rhino + 32 ft/s^2 = Whoa-UMPH!

Maybe the crawler didn't get the gravity memo.

Nope, cruising through standard surface on my way to a Lieutenant's tower.

i should add, he's still up there, and I've been gone long enough for the area to reset.  I think he's hung on the edge of the map.  If you hit Wandering Nomads, you'll find him in the 5th surface area at the far left (look for the leftover crates) of the NE lieutenant's tower.
... and then we'll have cake.

Hmm.

In order to debug it we'll need the world, really; and to get a reliable copy (without in-the-middle-of-writing-X situations) you have to shut the server down first.

When I get out of here I'll confirm he's still playing Dumbo the flying tank and then shutdown the server/save the world off.

Another side note, and I can't reliably reproduce the error yet, I dropped like 5x enchants, and accidentally picked them all abck up.  Only 1 appeared.  I dropped that one, found an enchant container, got a new meh enchant, and couldn't drop it, wouldn't leave inventory.  Leaving game/returning showed me my enchants properly.
... and then we'll have cake.

Ah.  Well.  That sounds just lovely.  Thanks for letting me know, shouldn't be too hard to reproduce and fix.

File Attached:

Grid 2, -4.  5th Surface Chunk (the one left of the secret mission chunk).  Far left end of the chunk.
