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

From what I can tell what is wrong with tracking on P99 is that it shows the newest 20 mobs within tracking distance of the ranger only. Now before you get your panties in a bundle YES it should always show the newest mobs at the top of the window. I believe however classically Verant had it mixed. So say the top 5 tracking slots were newest mobs in range to you and the bottom 15 were sorted by range to how close they were to you. On top of that It seamed like there was a "timer" for how stuff was considered new... For example say after 5 hours a mob wasn't new anymore it was just a mob like any other mob.

The problem with Tracking is we are not going to find anything hard written how the sort worked. We do know that newest mobs always showed up on top. We also know classically the list was 20. After that nothing is going to show up. I can tell you on live that running around as a ranger every step or second that passed in an area with pathing mobs resulted in changes to the track window and that is not the case here on p99.
