Chittering Clawbug Bard of the Soul Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Greetings, I am finding myself with a very strange problem that doesn't make a lot of sense. I have a stairway in one town which leads into another, and then one in the other town wich leads back. Pretty standard. I have done this before a dozen times without a problem. I set it up so that each stairway puts the party on a space with no specials. It is a forced stairway with no text boxes. When the town which serves as a the main floor is entered and then the party decends down the stirway it works fine. However, when they try to go back up they are sent to the new town and then automaticaly sent righ back to the tow they just left. I tried moving the space that the stairway sends them to further away from the special but I still get the same responce. I have double checked the node work on both ends and everything appears to be in order. Is this a bug that I have run accross? Or is there something that I may have missed?

Magnificent Ornk Kelandon Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Someone else would know this more thoroughly than me, but I think there is a bug that if you place a stairway node on a particular square, say (10,10), and there's a special on the corresponding space in the entry town, that is, (10,10) in the town the party is moving into, that special gets called. Are your stairways on the same (x,y) coordinates in their respective towns? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnificent Ornk Drakefyre Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Do you have a Jump-To at the end of the second call? You shouldn't, or you should change its number. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Wham Bam Shizzlezam Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Kel is right, it is a bug. You can find a list of known bugs here and here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chittering Clawbug Bard of the Soul Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 Yes, I have the stairways on the same squairs in the different towns. If that is the issue it is rather odd because I have the same araingment between the base town and another town that works just fine. I don't have any jump-to's, I figured that they might cause a problem so I left them out. Just for clarification, the base town is not the starting town of the scenerio, but rather town 1 which I am connecting to town 2 and 3. It is the connection with town three that is the problem, but both connections use the exact same style of connection. I'll check through the known bugs and see what I can find. Thank you very much.

It's a bug that shows up some but not all of the time, for reasons that aren't obvious. See if moving one of the stairways helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Actually War Trall Balladeer Posted December 14, 2004 Share Posted December 14, 2004 Drizzt explains this bug pretty well on his site. Stairway bug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
