Issue with NPC sync distance?

I'm having a strange issue where if I log on in a level all NPCs act fine but if I login on a different level and then walk over to some NPCs they aren't visible until very close. I've included a video below. Does anyone know the root cause of this? It only seems to happen to certain ones while others are always fine.

edit: ignore the music, i didn't know it would add it.

Sounds like something with this:

Check this in your server options

PHP Code:


		
			
 syncdistancex=number
 syncdistancey=number
 syncbydistanceinside=true/false

Define the radius (in tiles) at which players are synced to the screen. 
This is used for GMAPs to reduce players from being drawn outside of 
the specified radius. By default, it is being drawn at 192x192.

It's NPCs not players and it's only effecting certain NPCs.

Sorry, the real issue is that the NPCs had a mental breakdown. In a year they will be back (though perhaps only for a week) and will work again.

I'm guessing you're using showimg("img.png");? I've noticed graphics don't always display until you get close enough to them.

I figured out what it was but I forgot to post the resolution.If you place a NPC in a level with coordinates being equal to or greater than 64 within a level on a gmap it causes it.
