Game Mechanics: Track - Targets not showing

The way ranger track works now on p99: Track window shows 20 most recent spawns within the tracking range + unlimited player characters. Filtering by con, distance, reverse distance, etc will *only* filter the 20 most recent spawns. Even if you sort by distance and then re-track, you still only see the 20 most recent mobs sorted by distance.

Should rangers be able to sort by '20 most recent mobs in range', '20 closest mobs', '20 furthest mobs in range', etc?

Well it shouldn't be limited to 20 at all - that is a scroll bar limitation, and we have scroll bars.

But even if the limit is artificially held to 20 until Velious (when the scroll bar came into being and there was no limit), YES, the 20 you see should depend on your sort. It should NOT always be the 20 most recent spawns. I expect this last will be patched soon.

The 20 limit should go away with Velious at the latest, which will make it a moot point.

We shouldn't have scroll bars. The 20 limit is an attempt to emulate no scroll bar without having to fully recode that part of the client.

Rangers should have access to the different track sorts. Other classes should only have access to normal.

Ranger's track window should show different mobs depending on which track sort is activated.

This is how I remember it from playing a ranger on TZ and test.

Wish I could tell you more about track bros, never mained a druid / ranger... or played in any great capacity outside of PLing

This is one of the biggest problems atm with tracking, the way its currently set up having 200 skill is worse than saying have 100. If ranger can see basically the whole zone with his track, everything will be static and the same 20 mobs will be there the whole time . Vs that of a druid who when he moves new mobs become visible and in range.

Bump for my ranger buddies, just revert this crap, it's not worth arbitrarily trying to fix.
