Gateway Arena OOC Message

[Fyrd Argentus]

Low priority, mere off-putting weirdness.

Log on, enter arena, I get the first picture.  Step away then back, I get the second picture.

Can an A25 member investigate? I get a similar issue when I enter the first GWI scene and I'm not sure what has been done to cause that.

[Azull]

I've seen it, but no idea what causes it. I think the doc location has a similar issue.

[Fyrd Argentus]

Well, clearly it places the clicky before checking your progress.... then backs out.  So, a layer deeper in the nesting of "whys"....

[Fyrd Argentus]

Observation: on first entry the the arena, the knight is painted in before the backdrop (whether it's supposed to be there or not).  On subsequent entry, the backdrop is painted first.  This correlates with the appearance or not of the error message etc. and may help debug this issue.

Another oddity, under certain circumstances {which I am failing to reproduce}, a character logged on inland then moving to the beach encounters the "no access to clickie" message I associate with the horseman -- when he tries to LEAVE the beach.  Every time, he is stopped from leaving the beach.  This continues until he clicks on "A Curious Box" at which point he can leave the beach.

Note: A brand new character CAN leave the beach without ever clicking on the horseman.  {Doing so, he never sees the horseman again, and does not get this error.}

I got Mur to fix that.

 

Does the issue still occur on the other scene?

[Fyrd Argentus]

I have not seen this problem since you & Mur announced a fix to error messages on GWI.

The only error message I still see is the obelisk that gives RP items.  It spouts a message, but it does give an item.
