ZoneRegion.NearestChild problem.

[blackwinter]

${ZoneRegion.NearestChild[${Me.ToActor.Loc}]}

This is not working right sometimes. It will get the point far away.

makes my char running just like mad.

Can you produce a code sample I can use to test for this issue? I have no way of reproducing it otherwise. If it involves loading an extension and playing a specific game I can't guarantee anything (in which case you may need to get some assistance on that extension's forum, etc)

[blackwinter]

ok,another question
Can I use
${NavPath.NearestPoint[${Me.ToActor.Loc}]}

to replace

${ZoneRegion.NearestPoint[${Me.ToActor.Loc}]}

what's difference??

As ZoneRegion.NearestPoint is alway the point I stand ,no matter it's mapped or not.

[blackwinter]

It's EQ2 ,I think it's something about coordinates.
I saw this in wiki

point3f NearestPoint[x,y,z]: Retrieves the nearest point to the given location (coordinates may be ommitted to use x,0,0 or x,y,0)

In eq2 it sould be x,z,y ,it mean x,0,y. it's so different from other games.

So I get this error

mapping data between your current (-1191.727783,-990.426147,637.838196) and the nearest CenterPoint (-1192.208984,-991.350830,12.513396) is within 625.325684

[blackwinter]

And I am sure I have mapped points within 20 m.

There may be bugs in the old and busted nav system, and since it has been deprecated and unsupported for years, there is no plan to solve any of those bugs. You should switch to LavishNav if you are wanting support -- sorry

[blackwinter]

It's just LavishNav!

From InnerSpace\Scripts\EQ2Navigation\EQ2Nav_Lib.iss

Code: Select all

[blackwinter]

lol, I just notice this in the script

/* This function is not working exactly right -- reported to Lax

You were specifically saying NearestPoint, which does not exist in LavishNav, so I was a bit confused as to what you were doing.

If it's with LavishNav, I would need a test case that proves that it is broken, I can't just guess at how to reproduce the issue you are saying exists. What if it's doing exactly what it's supposed to do, but someone thought it was supposed to find the nearest descendant, not just the nearest child? Also, if it finds a child that you are *inside*, then it is automatically "the nearest", even if you are closer to the center point of another region. So anyway, I either need data that shows the bug, or I can't verify it at all.

[blackwinter]

no, I just asked if I could use NearestPoint to replace that broken one, then I found it's the old system, doesn't work.
