Lost Child prayer on grid edge - Blank map.

[SynthesisAlpha]

I wanted to try out the prayer that gives you a map, so i did. Boated my way up to an area i hadn't mapped yet, and yep, I got a local map (quality 4?) in my inventory.

It was blank. This probably has something to do with the fact that I used it in a local map area that contains the invisible edge of the world. Waste of 10 Numen points.

In a related note, the grid edge is actually about 125 tiles away from the edge of a local map, and the edge of the grid doesn't lie on the far edge of regional map, but in the second column of the 5x5 region map. Makes it impossible to get a complete area map along the edge.

Do you have any actual ancestors or just the generic one they've given to everyone who hasn't died?

The Prayer of a Lost Child will only fill in a random number of grids, depending on the perception/exploration of the ancestors.

If you have a generic ancestor with crap stats I suppose it's possible your random number was simply 0. If that's the case I would still consider this a bug.

Nope, it wasn't zero, but 4 -- as indicated by the quality of the map. That's 4 in 100 that a given tile will be filled in, so zero tiles seems quite reasonable.

I see. Yeah, it was on an alt that i repeatedly drowned to push to full industry, so all three of his ancestors were 10/1 in all categories. Didn't expect it would be completely blank, though

your ancestors were only good for drowning, not mapping
