Title: Memorial Weekend Festivities
Post by: Akkadius on May 25, 2018, 05:42:40 pm
Good Evening EZ Players!

I hope that everyone has a safe weekend. We're going to start things off at EZ this weekend with something we haven't done in a while...

EZ Double Loot

  • So traditionally we've done Double Loot over Memorial Weekend, this time it's going to have a bit of a change up this year...
  • Until Sunday at 2AM CST - all Double Loot and Triple Loot items will stack with the traditional Double Loot event, meaning if you use a Triple loot instance this will be effectively 4x until this time. Items will not stack after this time, Double will be Double and Triple will be Triple after this time.
  • Double loot will be effective until Tuesday - Noon CST

EZ Double Credits

  • Credits will be double until Tuesday - Noon as well for anyone who has been waiting for this, this is the time to do so!

Server Code Update

  • I'm very excited to introduce a massive quality of life update to the server that has been through some rigorous testing on PEQ for the past few weeks and that is the navmesh system
  • Pathing behavior should be far more intelligent, NPC's will round corners, go up stairs, go through a door versus making a straight line path to the player.
  • Imagine the NPC is now aware of the terrain, it will use the terrain tiles to make decisions on the shortest path to its destination (the player or target it is engaged to)
  • Navigation mesh technology is used in most modern game engines, KLS has put in significant time to put this together and its been a long time coming.

Enjoy!

Akka

Thanks for the event.


Currently there is a live like "drop aggro after certain radius" update in the code.   Akkadius advised not to use zone wide pull (or create DL/TL instances with the intent of ZW pull) until he has a chance to fix it.   

This code will impact pretty much all high end pulls on EZ.

The aggro range drop issue is patched out now, it was a great change for Live like behavior, but doesn't fit the paradigm of EZ

Works, aggro no longer drops - Excellent call :)

For some odd reason casters and healers becomes valid targets for wild rampage hits after first cast, regardless of range to the mob resultning in lots of death's - If no casts are made, they live.

It's just the stacking that's turned off
Until Sunday at 2AM CST - all Double Loot and Triple Loot items will stack with the traditional Double Loot event

Normal DL still seems to be active

Nope I am in guild ToV instance and the DL is not working, it was until couple hours ago.

Made new ToV guild instance and still no DL.

Did some checks, seems only public is double, normal instances are single

Guessing the script to turn off stacking also turned off DL in all instances

I don't get DL in private instances either. I just entered a private instance(Abyss) from last night, and bosses dropped single loot. Re-made a new instance(Abyss) today, and bosses still only dropped single loot.

Still not dropping double loots in instances. Maybe something's up with the doubles/triples stacking? Might be easier to turn on halloween event instead?

Double works fine, was fixed earlier

Doubles and Triples don't stack after Saturday 2AM CST as per mentioned in the original post
