Teleport: Angolwen from east not working as expected? [b21]

[jeremyosborne]

Perhaps this isn't a bug, but if it's not a bug, I believe the flow of the archmage teleport should probably work differently in b21.

I've only used Teleport: Angolwen a couple of times when I was in the west. It would take me to Angolwen, and when I exited via the portal, I believe it dropped me right outside the city.

I just finished a section of the east and used Teleport: Angolwen to get out of the orc armory, but I have _not_ yet reopened a portal to the west. The teleport worked, it took me back to Angolwen. However, instead of ending up in the west right outside of Angolwen when I exited Angolwen, it dropped me right on top of the entrance to the orc armory.

Is this the desired behavior? Seems a bit odd to me, perhaps just prevent Teleport: Angolwen from working in the East until I reopen the portal to the west?

[Edit: I think a better title for this bug would be "Teleport: Angolwen from east not working as expected?" so I changed the title.]

Every time I used Teleport: Angolwen, it dropped me back at the last spot on the worldmap that I'd visited, so yeah, it's probably working as intended. It's a function of the "wilderness" exit of Angolwen, actually:


From Angolwen's zone.lua file:

Code: Select all

...
		local spot = game.level:pickSpot{type="portal", subtype="back"}
		if spot then game.level.map(spot.x, spot.y, engine.Map.TERRAIN).change_zone = game.player.last_wilderness end

And meh, it's the only part of the West you have access to as an Archmage, there is no way to get to the West worldmap from Angolwen if you entered Angolwen while in the East.
