I just thought I'd point this out to everyone, including whichever coders.

This sort of thing:

4388h, 2782m, 3439e, 10p exkdb-starcall beckon ixion
starcall beckon ixion
You don't see any such player here or in an adjacent location.
4388h, 2782m, 3439e, 10p exkdb-

4388h, 2782m, 3439e, 10p exkdb-look

Even when he's there.

Uh, I don't see any proofs of it not working, where's the part after you did look?

I noticed the same sort of thing when I tried to cast ignite at Shamarah in the next room. It didn't notice him either.
Shamarah2005-06-12 22:29:06
You can cast ignite through adjacent rooms? blink.gif

Maybe they're trying to fix beckon now?

Yes, it's just like firelash in all the other IRE games, except a lot weaker and puts people on fire.

Yeah. You dont even have to specify a direction, I dont think. Just cast ignite at them and it finds them if they are in your location, or one thats adjacent.

Throwing things into adjacent rooms doesn't work either, in some cases.
Erion2005-06-12 22:51:44
Is it cross-areas, out of curiousity? Is it nw/ne/se/sw/in/out/up/down, or..?
Amaru2005-06-12 23:03:52
Beckon just worked for me in Acknor. Not sure what's going on...

Someone test it. smile.gif

Perhaps Ixion had already left by that time?
He had some fast transportation. I don't see the log where you look again and he's still there.
And is this in the room on cancer where the exits don't come up when you look? Because if it is, I think it's always been that way.

Nah, it's definitely there. I remember being in the adjacent room to him and Thorgal... I squinted, beckoned, squinted, beckoned. Walked in, walked out in a different direction and tried again. There was definitely a problem, and it happened later on when I jumped you also.

Yer. I was sitting one north of Under a Dark Root trying to beckon Ishimoru with Triden following, and nothing, yesterday.
