Logging out with something ontop of you

Postby Kheyre » Sun May 02, 2010 12:47 am

I'm sure all of you have been through this before, doing a small trek onland holding something, server crashes, you are a distance from your Hearth. You cant spawn where you were exactly. The first thought going through your head is "noooooo, why cant i log in there" then it dawns on you that you cant spawn there because of the boat/chest/object is where you were standing.
For example, i was just doing a couple hour trek to the outer supergrids holding a boat with two chests full of stuff for my new settlement. BOOM server crashes, I can no longer log in exactly where i was.

There should be a thing that forces you to spawn beside where you were, on a side of the object so you can continue your trek, or atleast rescue your items.

I am doubting you understood what i am saying,

Server crashes while you are holding a boat
Server comes up, boat is where you would spawn
Wont let you log on there at all.
Only option would be to spawn at hearth.


We need to be able to spawn beside where we were logged out due to crash, so we wont get fucked over while holding something.

I was beside a swamp, holding my boat, no claims in roughly 2000tiles each way. Then boom a crash, which led me to think about how it could be fixed so crashes dont fuck people over.

Okay, i did test:

I'm holding my boat while standing on land. Then i close my client and wait a sec. Now when i try login i can't select "Where you logged out" because boat is there blocking. Gotta select "Your hearth fire"

This is what i was thinking also, i dont think its too hard to code. Thought there has to be somekind secure so people cant teleport inside cities etc.

Make the adventuring more secure! 8-)

The red ring could be the circle it checks to put you, if one side has some obstructions, it would check the other side.
