Issues with GMAP

jake13jake · #1 11-14-2003, 06:05 PM

I have no clue if this is a problem for everyone, or if it's what's supposed to happen, but much of the time when I go to a server with a gmap, it loads itself like a level and you get stuck to the confines of some place/thing (I think the onlinestartlocal code without links). I've had this problem with more than one server. Unstick me will get me out of it, but won't keep me out of it. I think it's any level that loads the gmap that can get me into it, but I'm not sure because I have no clue what a gmap is or does.

Sometimes there can be problems when you enter the levels before uploading the gmap. When the server still has the single levels in the memory then it will not really put you on the gmap. Normally restarting the server should help.

Or maybe the map could not be made correctly??o-o

What you just said sounds like it might work, but it really only confused me a little bit more. Do you mean like restarting the server, or restarting graal? Maybe I should break down my problem a little bit more.

-This is my individual problem, I think, with going onto servers with gmaps with the current version of Graal (but works in 3.0).

-I'm not sure, but I think this happens only when I enter a level which loads a gmap.

-I appear in another level than I'm supposed to be in, but I don't know what the level is. There sometimes seems to be invisible walls blocking where I go, and if I go back to the spot where I entered, I go back to the level I came from. When I press F5 it shows the gmap file for the level name.

it sounds like the problem (sounds, i'm not saying it is, i'm not clear on his problem) I have on Kingdoms sometimes where i'll just be walking along and suddenly the GMAP messes up and the level just turns to sand, and I can still see the NPCs in the level.. only way I could get it back to normal was to reconnect

It's happened to me on the Graalympics server (only on the entrance level), on Dark Diamond (an ugly playerworld under development server), and most recently on Atlantis (I was sick from school and that was the only server with people on it). On Atlantis it happened to me ALOT. Everytime I moved from an inside level to an outside level, it HAPPENED.
