West Teleporter in Hole ports to Neriak Third Gate

[maximum]

The West teleporter in The Hole took me to Neriak Third Gate (neriakc). It should be porting to the Paineel tower (and it was, one patch ago).

Could not replicate. Was teleported to tower.

maximum. what is your race/class? the reason I ask is because perhaps your client had trouble accessing the map files on ur HDD temporarily, which may have sent your character to his "home location" (not bind). I know enemy guild abuse this bug to port (and it can even summon your corpse out of VP) on red.

I know enemy guild abuse this bug to get corpses out of VP on red.

This is the bugs forum. Explain this bug. Give me steps to replicate it.

[Bamzal Sherbet]

it was well documented in the Mellowyellow <Azrael> thread that reached 100 pages and then deleted. based on the way things get "cleaned up" here I should have screenshotted it all.

Regardless, why would the server let the client "zone" the corpse under any circumstances, without checking for GM powers.

If you give something to Nilbog to fix, you better hope he can reproduce it mang. Hurts your stock.

The Wednesday server reset probably fixed it.

My party members experienced the same thing on Sunday. We had erudites, dwarves, dark elves, and half-elves all take the West portal and end up in Neriak.

Just stepped on the west teleporter and was taken to Neriak Third Gate.

[nilbog]

Can I get a loc of the teleporter in question?

[paulgiamatti]

The room with the three teleporters is +46, +346, -385

The west teleporter takes you to Neriak Third Gate, the east teleporter takes you to Erudin Palace, and the north teleporter is completely non-functional.

Not sure which should be which, but it sounds like people are pretty sure of west going to Paineel. Anyone have a resource for this info?

[paulgiamatti]

This is pretty much all I could find on it:

Pretty sure those doors aren't locked, too.

Okay this is fixable.

For the sake of fixing this once and for all.. if anyone can test these on eqlive (does the hole still exist?), or find better research, I can change it.

Also, if there should be locked doors, I can fix those as well. Just need details.

[gnatch]

some information, doesn't say which are which.

How come there is no written information about the 3 hidden teleport pads inside The Hole? In a secret passage in the undead city, there is 3 teleport pads, 1 goes to paineel, another goes to neriak 3rd gate, and another goes to erudin palace inside a jail cell. To think, all these years I've been playing eq and I had never fully explored the hole enough to realize this. It looks like its uncommon knowledge because it's not up on this website. Has this always been here since the start of EQ?

[paulgiamatti]

Well, for starters I suggest west goes to Paineel instead of Neriak, north goes to Neriak, and east stays as it is to Erudin Palace.

Not sure what to say about the doors. Maybe just make them locked with the same properties as the entrance boulder/Dartain's boulder? Pickable by rogues & bards, and openable with a Hole key.

Tried it on live, map is the same though not all the mobs are. This is what happened. Locs are in the Screenies. I didnt move at all after porting.

Teleporter room on live:

West teleporter takes you to Paineel in the glass room that sits above the drop down to hole yael area (very cool!).:

Stepping onto the pad there takes you into paineel proper:

North takes you to Neriak 3rd gate:

East takes you to Erudin Palace in the jail:
