[beta9] Teleport Angolwen from far east

[Patryn]

I teleported to Angolwen after killing the Vor-Boss. Worked fine so far, sold my stuff etc. But when leaving Angolwen, I ended up somewhere in the eastern part of "Middle-Earth (22)". I'm not sure, but with a rough estimate the coords could match the Vor entrance, but simply on the wrong worldmap... Guess this is not intended.

EDIT: When loading, the loadmenu tells me that I'm "currently exploring lvl 22 of Middle-Earth". Huh?

The log didn't really bring up something useful:

Yeah that happened to me too... very annoying, had to climb down Moria again and use the portal to fix it. I think it has been already reported... I just hope it's gonna be fixed in next beta.

[darkgod]

I cant seem to reproduce it by just teleporting to the far est entering a pride and teleporting out, what did you do exactly before ?
Save/reload, what zones did you go before, ... ?

[Patryn]

Humm... In this session I went to the Vor pride, killed the boss, accepted the pre-mtdoom-quest, looted and teleported out. Maybe I saved before teleporting, but not exit/reloading. I'm just doing this in regular intervals because my laptop has some overheating issues sometimes and then shuts of.

But I don't think its connected to the quest because the same thing happened to the same char before directly after entering the far east. As usual I teleported fareast after killing the moria-boss, then went to the sunwall. Obviously I couln't enter the shops yet and teleport to angolwen from sunwall didn't work because "someone may be watching". Thus I went to the spidercaverns and teleported from there (killen 2-3 mobs to have a quiet corner for the teleport). After selling stuff and leaving angolwen I again endet up in the eastern part of middle-earth. However, it was not the same spot, thus my guess that the local coordinates may match the coords of the entrances to the dungeon you teleport out, but for some reason the wrong map is chosen.

I encountered this as well. Went to the far east. Talked to the Sun Paladin chick. Killed the spider boss. Teleported Out. Left Angolwen and was back in the West. I thought it was intended behavior so didn't report it.

[Patryn]

Just a little update:
It happened again when I TPed out of the dragonpride. This time I appeared between Tol'Falas and Minas Tirith which seems to be the same coords as the entrance of the Gorbat Pride (just wrong map).

However, if you can't reproduce it maybe it's already fixed (as a side effect) in the latest svn version when you fixed this bug... We'll see with beta10 and walking through Moria isn't that much trouble with a phase door and prob. travel mage anyway.

[darkgod]

No different bug :/

[mirrizin]

For what it's worth, same thing happened to me. I accidentally cast "teleport angolwen" from the spider's laid and died while trekking through Moria. I assumed that this was a normal game mechanic at the time, but it was certainly aggravating.

[darkgod]

Well the easy solution is to disable the teleport from the east but still it's ungood (and might not even work).

Can you send me a savefile that has that problem please ?
If possible just right after (or even better: right before) the teleport

[PowerWyrm]

Strange you cannot reproduce that because it's happening in all my games too...

[darkgod]

All my tries work :/

Can you send me a savefile please ?

[mirrizin]

Maybe next time I make it that far...

[PowerWyrm]

Stupid question... which file is the "savefile"?

[Feanor.81]

The actual game save is game.teag, .teaz files just hold layout and state of already explored dungeons and towns, desc.lua is more a quick entry in the load screen.

I would zip and send the whole character folder for debug purposes.

[darkgod]

Don't bother!
An idea hit me this night!

Angolwen is a permanent zone, thus the portal back is created only once, if you first use it from the west it'll always connect to the west.
Fixed now
