Coordinates
Not sure if its a clientside bug, but the coords are pretty messed up right now?

Re: Coordinates
coords arent supposed to be in the game. this might be intentional

Re: Coordinates
I think it's intentional too, they seem totally random, and the coords for the same place vary when you logout/login. Too bad :\

Re: Coordinates
Yes, it is a feature, not a bug. ;)
I was getting disturbed by people being able to attack other towns by coordinating by coordinates alone (hurr durr, I made pun!), so I did something that I had more-or-less planned to do since the start. All individual sessions now have an individual, random coordinate offset that changes as often as possible (whenever a view change occurs in which no residual client-side coordinates exist).

Re: Coordinates
This kills raiding totally! I see no other way to coordinate effectively!

Re: Coordinates
Map the area, take a screenshot and e-mail it to your raiding partners/upload it to your private forum?

Re: Coordinates
Of course, that isn't actually what I was saying. I was never disturbed by the raiding, nor by the fact that people were coordinating; only by the fact that map coordinates, an obviously unintended ingame element, were being used for it.warrri wrote:This kills raiding totally!

Re: Coordinates
Dont get me wrong, i totally see and understand that coords should not be intended. The fact is it will somehow make raiding much much harder, but thats nothing bad i guess.
