Newbie Island -> Main Island Item Losses.

MysticHaste · #1 12-30-2003, 07:54 AM

When you restart (and get your items back from someone) Make sure you save a restart point, I failed to do this and Lost items/money.

When you die you go back to newbie island (No biggy)
But when you go back to the mainland it once AGAIN takes items and money from you. Around 3500 platinum I think, and some items at around Tuesday 30th December, 3:45pm GMT +10 (Australia..)

If one of the EMs Could possibly help me out it would be most appreciated. (Seeing how Stefan is away at the moment I think)

(I'm sure this could be fixed by either
a. setting restart point at bomboria as soon as the player arrives.
or
b. setting a flag saying items have been taken.
-As I'm sure you guys could have worked out..)

Thanks in Advance.

While I agree that this needs fixing of sorts - at least a small hint to look for a restart point - I don't think the average EM can do anything about that. All you could do in my opinion is to forum-pm Stefan and hope for the best

So Tseng doesn't have log access or whatever

Damn that sucks, New character, That money was for spells

I don't know whether such things are logged, but on the other hand, Tseng's more than your ordinary EM

it'd be nice that if you die, it gives you a message telling you what you lost. If it does, I'm sorry, I just haven't noticed it yet.

Also, I would figure that after you're sent to the mainland from the newbie island, your save point would automatically be set to that point, rather than the dock for the ship to the newbie island.

It doesn't, but you'll always drop coins first. The limit is at about 100 plats depending on your level, but I don't know how it is determined which other items are being dropped...

I think it works items out by the shop value of the item.
