2 pointers to new quests and commune with nature

Postby Shyruban » Thu Jul 28, 2016 7:51 am

I have this odd bug, when I am tracking one of the new quests or one given by using ''Commune with Nature''
i get 2 pointers or arrows for the quest, both exactly opposite each other, for example, if I have a pointer directly north for a quest, i also have 1 that's directly south.
Naturally this makes completing any quest crazy, I followed one earlier all the way to the edge of the map, it was still pointing outside the map and had another pointer 180 degrees behind me.
Tried relogging, restarting client.
I have the latest Java, as for my graphic card, this is not a graphic bug. I'm using the default client at the moment but i usually play with Pasta but it's not up to date yet :).
Thank you.

Update : Also occurs in Pasta :)

Update 2 : I found that zooming far out and then looking straight down will show only 1 pointer, at least a workaround that let you know the real direction for the quest.

as explained in the announcement thread, this is only a bug with :cam bad. Changing your camera back to the default prevents it.

I doubt that's the issue if you literally have two pointers. Isn't it just one pointer to the destination and another one back to the questgiver? They do have tooltips, so check those.

I don't know. It's what was posted in the Announcements... jorb I think, but I'd have to double check.

What was referred to in the announcement thread was that a pointer might point in the diametrically opposed direction for some bad-cam settings, so that one pointer may be said to point in two different directions. It should not cause there to be two distinct pointers, on the other hand.
