Random Teleporting
« on: October 10, 2007, 10:51:24 am »
Well recently for rare and odd occasions I have been having a possible bug where for no reason at all I am sent into the air by 300feet, all at the plaza area. Altough apparently to GM's there is a ghost version of me still on the ground when they try to teleport to me. If I move at all when I am up there I of course just fall right down and die.

So who else has had some experience of this?

Please, if anyone has encountered a similar issue post here or in the bug report their experience.
It is hard to understand what is going wrong in such a random bug report, so if we manage to get a way to reproduce it, it will also help us to fix it (if any bug exists and it doesn't depend from lag).

This happened to me. I was in Ojaveda, about a few feet behind Brado's bar. Got launched high in the air and killed. Wasn't long after character creation.

I read the CVS log a couple days ago. This problem's been fixed for v0.3.20.

Now that you mention it, maybe it was the bug tracker I read it in...fuzzy memory.

Don't get what ya mean, Ary. If it needs confirming, the thread title is right. It is random teleporting. I was just running behind the Ojaveda Tavern, and I get thrusted up into the air randomly and fall to the ground dead. I can't confirm much more than that, it was pretty unexpected and I figured it was a bug that was going to be fixed "soon" so I kept my mouth shut about it, since I never really do check bugtracker anymore.

Maybe you should check the bugtracker some times then ;) We cannot confirm bugs if we do not know they happened to others, and they are so random that they do not occur to us. We may notice you mentioning it in the forum and confirm it, but we may miss it (as Arianna did).
Arianna's and Thom's replies were to Ver saying he saw in the bugtracker that this bug was fixed. Since they do check the bugtracker, I can see why they were surprised :).

well, this all sounds to me as if there is somekind of "overpressure" in the lover levels and due to disruptions in the ground this pressure leaks out and pushes you high in the air ... just like standing on a geyser ... no bug at all ... just Yliakums Nature !

Weird, this happened to me when I was in the Ojaveda Warehouse... While training, my character suddenly shot up a mile into the sky, and then, when I moved, I fell back down. Then, in the DR, I asked someone if they saw, and she verified. So, yeah, there's something odd going on.

Raa, could you please add your experience in the bug report?
Thanks.

Please, try to note, if it happens also another time, what kind of actions were you doing or whatever might make you suspicious or even reproduce this.

Can I suggest if it does happen to you and you manage to not fall and die, grab a /pos and a screenshot, contact me or another GM if online and if you do fall try and get a /pos when you land
