GIANT Block of Doom

[Admins]

Hmmm looks more like a script problem somehow. Can you move around as block?

Yes. When I move around, the block delays by about 0.5 seconds behind the actual position of my character.

Well, since I never got a reply after replying to Stefan's question, thought I might bump this since it is still happening. I recently made a WNPC that has helped me at least know where I am on the screen

PHP Code:

//#CLIENTSIDE
function onCreated() {
  setTimer(0.05);
}

function onTimeOut() {
  showani(200, player.x, player.y, player.dir, player.ani);
  showtext(201, screenwidth - 10, 5, "arial", "br", "Block Fix Mode");
  changeimgvis(200, 1);
  changeimgvis(201, 5);
  changeimgzoom(201, 0.5);
  setTimer(0.05);
} 


But the block is still there regardless (See Image).

Sooooo.... Yes, I can see the block move around (Video below) and it randomly happens. However, the rare part is it not happening, so this happens more often than not.

I had that issue on Era when messing with either my alpha or my zoom. Try resetting your player.attr[24] or player.attr[23], I can't remember where that stuff is stored.

Tried it and nothing worked ;[

I do Technical Support for a living and the following is my suggestions for fixing/isolating the problem.

Copy all of the attributes/items/stats associated with this character and then try doing a full reset of the account. If the problem persists then you know it's not a scripting problem. If it fixes itself then you know it's something to do with the server.

You can then try and past in all the attributes and see if the problem reappears. If it doesn't then you know it's not an attribute.

Assuming it's not an attribute do the same thing for the weapons/items that your character has.

Just keep adding sections back until the problem resurfaces. If you add a section back in and the problem reappears delete that section again and see if the problem goes away again.

If it does try adding each item or attibute individually until the problem reappears.

In between adding/removing sections try moving around and logging out and back in the game to see if it makes any difference.

This should isolate the problem and make fixing it easier as we'll know if it's something Stefan needs to take care of or a specific script that needs to be fixed on the server.

Thanks for the suggestion. That's not half bad at all. I don't have time to do it right this minute, but your logic pretty much states it's own outcomes regardless of "oh it worked" or "oh it didn't work", so I'll find a moment and give it a shot, and just Rep++ you ahead of schedule.
