Just some tweaks and small fixes today, although one with a bit of an impact.

Appearance Changer

In order to see if it helps reduce server crashes we have added a 1 second delay to all Previous/Next convo options on the appearance changer. We understand this is going to be a pain for people, especially if going through lots of options, but server stability is paramount, and there are signs that people flicking through appearances quickly contribute to server crashes. Depends on results of this test will determine if we keep this change or make some other tweak.

Kemo bios

No longer notify if you are being inspected.

OOC portal

Small text change and also removed several calls to the legal check script where they were not needed (eg: on exit from convo).

Player house

Updated a player house with fixes provided by player.

When I enter Sigil I got the message saying my character is bugged... But it was fine few days ago, and I haven't noticed anything wrong o.o
I closed myself off in the past, while building a new world at the same time, pointing at the future, and more and more clearly I realised this world would have been my shelter, where I would have found salvation from all the miseries. (Wagner)

I am certain of nothing but the holiness of the heart's affections and the truth of imagination-what the imagination seizes as beauty must be truth-whether it existed before or not. (Keats)

Erm, you actually are able to enter sigil? Or you can't?

You will need a DM to run the debug tool on your character to spot what the problem is. See if you can spot one in game. Otherwise i can try this evening to help you out.

I can, but the second option says the character is bugged.

Hmm.. might be something i did with the convo options last update. But you should get the option to enter or the warning about being bugged, not both. :blink:

I've gotten both on and off for months (seemingly at random).
Do not hesitate to send me a PM if you:
- Have questions about building, or joining the Dev Team
- Want to join or start an event for the Mercykillers, Fated, or Signers
- You have been waiting more than 2 days for me to post in an IC forum thread

I've had that option in the portal conversation with Rhistel for a couple of weeks now... It was the fourth option, at first, then after last update it switched to the second. I was never denied access to sigil, so I kinda ignored it o.o..

Yeah, i moved the options around, although that by itself shouldn't matter.

Ho hum, back to the toolset i go.

What is funny is it means we have several illegal characters in sigil, or else clean characters are somehow being flagged as illegal.

Wonder if it's race related and those effected are playing a custom race. Or could be high number of items are finding new ways to screw the server.

I recall Ephelil on my account being consistently flagged as "bugged" (but being allowed to proceed through the portal anyway).

Before I had returned from hiatus, she never had any such problem, but maybe that predates the "bugged" warning in the portal conversation.

The bugged check has existed for a as long as i've been here.

It usually triggers when someone has items with immunities or other properties we don't allow, or else their character has attributes or some such which is too high.

So, if i fix this, either things will be fixed ok, or else ill be inundated with people screaming at me they can't enter Sigil because their characters are illegal in some way.

I must admit I have no idea what an illegal item would be o.o... Now that I know about it maybe I can look for a DM when I'm online and ask them to check my inventory?

An illegal item would be one with a blanket immunity or a property like haste (not cast spell: haste, just the basic perma haste property).

But i doubt its an illegal item.

We have been looking at the script, looks like we have a problem with the script failing.
