Title: /unstick other required use
Post by: mizar2 on August 06, 2007, 03:48:53 am
I see there is a topic about using /unstick only for when you are stuck on the map.  Of course there has been a change so that now if you are stuck you often can't unstick, the reasons are documented elsewhere.

I'm not sure if it is documented that /unstick seems to be the only way to fix a recurring problem -- invisible players and NPCs.

From the point of view of a player often certain NPCs are invisible or not there, the problem is obvious to the player.

Not obvious is when another player is invisible to a player, that problem leads to some nasty exchanges between two players over killing stealing and the like, because one player can see the other but the other can't see that player and can't figure out why someone far away is complaining about him fighting a particular creature since obviously noone is at this particular creature.

The only solution I know of is to use /unstick immediately after logging in every time.

As a side note I see the designers have found a solution to the problem of people using the DR to get from one place to another, the DR is a lot more dangerous.
