Title: Plane of Dragons Optimized!
Post by: hateborne on May 17, 2014, 06:32:02 pm
Plane of Dragons Optimized!

Ladies/gents/trolls,

Plane of Dragons (postorms) will no longer crawl/mass-disconnect on repop. Repop time has gone from ~30-90 seconds to ~5 seconds. Tikis are 5 seconds (max) repop after the summoned boss is killed. Chests and Ornate Chests are just *slightly* higher than before.

Be on the look out for any kinks/oddities please!

PoD has been crashing few times with the zone connect message

made a new instance of PoD (Fresh GI "Guild instance (4902) for postorms" to be exact) and I was killing some bosses for essences. I handed in a crystal to earth and he spawned Kronos. Which is great... but it was just one... not three. Not sure if the change to the encounter was intentional or a byproduct of code changes. Just letting you know.

thanks for all your hard work!

EDIT: Also just noticed that Ice is not up. Very odd.

Ice water fire seems to be .. questionable at the moment. I'm sure HB will get a chance to look at it.. The single Kronos is strange too

Fugitive was explaining it over text. I will review it again when I get home and (likely) rewrite the spawning lines to use another method.

Sorry for all the hang-ups on the rewrite. I am learning which of the quest objects/methods/functions are broken to hell.

Rolling disconnects in guild/raid instances.  I logged a character into raid and it kept disconnecting moved him to my guild instance and was stable for a while, now im getting rolling disconnects in guild too.

Noted. If things become FUBAR, I will likely do just that. This was due to a foolish misunderstanding of my conditional check on the depop signal. I've re-written it to utilize a depop instead of disable_spawn2. ~200-300 trash kills and ~75 boss kills in instanced Plane of Dragons with Krincle saw zero errors, zero issues with tiki repopping, and no log-worthy errors.

Killed about 2 hrs worth of bosses n minis n stuffz..

Couldn't crash anything for the life of me.

Noticed a couple mechanics changes:

Each boss spawning a cornucopia of different types of trash adds. I'm assuming thats a cosmetic change that was intended.

Thur's buddy Magmi does *not* respawn if killed before Thur dies.

Kronos fake Kronos pals also do not respawn if killed before Kronos dies. Pretty sure that's unintended.

Couple bosses landed Packmasters Curse on my warrior who has over 2100 resist.

The second boss i spawned in T2 caused a really brutal lag spike that lasted a good 30ish seconds. Could have been a total fluke. My connection isnt the worlds greatest (Century Link), but i only had one toon online at the time so it was pretty out of the ordinary.

Nothing else really of note, sorry i wasn't more help =/
