Passing trough closed gates....
« on: February 01, 2005, 04:14:54 pm »
(1st of all, Hi to all, this is my 1st post)

After some compiling I got the Planeshift client running and jumped into the game.

I ventured down into what I think are the sewers. There I came across a passage that appeared to be blocked by a tube, but I could walk right trough it, so I went on.
( Of course this seemed strange to me, but I pressed on wondering it was a test of determination )
A couple of minutes later the admin had to reboot the server. So I turned on a movie and went to sleep...

Today I went on exploring the depths of Planeshift and encountered a lot of gates. Most were open but some were closed. I suspected the tube incident was a bug.
On my way back (or @ least trying to find my way back to the top) I walked right trough a gate. This had to be a bug, so I tried pushing my rocky body trough the other side but it was blocked. Having no other option than to venture further into the tunnel, I stumbled upon another gate. This one was \'locked\' as well... Oh my, now I\'ve got a problem. I am stuck, trapped, behind bars, incarcerated, an inmate...

Good thing there is an in-game help function with real people.... I tried to explain my situation and tried the commands the advisor hurled at me ( /unstick and /spawn )
Neither worked cause of my client pasting fear in front of the /command ( Problems usually come in pairs )
First the advisor thought i was abusing the help chan... in a way I wish I was (that would mean I wasnt stuck) and then he/she thought my box was hacked.... hmmm, not likely, not impossible either, but not likely.

Can anyone help me because I am running out of good names and character slots this way.



Searching trough the forum gave me the tip of disabeling the bad word filters ( never knew you was concidered a bad word )
In game go to options -> Interface -> Chat -> Disable \"Filter outgoing bad words\"
Somehow this solves the fear prefix problem as well and I was able to execute the /spawn command ( seeing I was standing on a valid location on the invalid side of a gate... )  Setting my character free from his prison. :D

sounds like you solved your problem but just so you know if you keep at it you can run through ANY of the gates on EITHER side as many times as you want (makes for good shortcuts:D) so if you get \"trapped\" on one side just move a couple steps over and try again eventually you will get out and it saves you the nuisance of having to /spawn ro the plaza and walking all the way back down to where you were
