Track succeeded in me (54 druid) killing and or plugging 8 individuals today in 2 hours. Track is working great for me, thanks for the hotfixes Haynar!

This feature has been here since classic.

It was working for me in MM yesterday.

This works if you are already within a certain range to the player you are attempting to track.

This is true.

This was also the case before-hand.

Long range player tracking is not working appropriately as of right myow.

So what you're saying is tracking has not changed at all since the bug was found and is still broken.

Bump

I was trying to track someone (NPC) across the zone in nektulos yesterday on red and it sent me in circles. Just an FYI for anyone needing as much info as possible.

The bug is caused by the anti-hacking system that prevents your client from knowing where other PCs and NPCs are on the map while outside of a set range.

At least, that is how it was explained to me.

No fix in sight.

Multiple issues.

The anti hack code is part of it.

Another part is a system in place that does not send client updates outside a certain range. I need to add a bypass for tracking clients. Should be a fairly simple fix. I will try to look at in next day or two.
