BUG: X,Y coords

Post by SingleServing » Thu Dec 26, 2002 4:36 pm

not a big deal but

$char(x) returns your Y coords
$char(y) returns your X coords

found a bug with $target(id) also where it was reporting correcly
via /echo but wrong in /mqlog, restarted computer and havn't
been able to replicate the problem. /shrug

EQ is set up y,x,z. Why, we do not know.

Assumed lazyness.

The /mqlog thing is a bug though if you can produce it. Also be weary of mobs that despawn and respawn instantly, repeatedly (EmpInit spawn in ssra an example)... They change SpawnID's but are usually repopped in the same packet as they are despawned.

That MAY have caused it, unless you hadnt retargeted the NPC you were checking ID's on, which would make it an odd bug...
