Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

[IN DEVELOPMENT] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

Behavior on Demise:

You can mark in the courtyard area and recall/Gate/Sacred Journey
to the marked spot

Behavior on OSI:

You can mark a rune but you can not travel to that spot
You get a message saying something is blocking the spot

I've considered that on OSI you cannot recall to a location that is "part" of house region. Should work.

Testing results:

I marked two runes in a castle's courtyard, and one indoors (it became a house rune).

Before applying the patch:
I'm able to recall to all three runes. The courtyard runes will take me right where I marked them (inside the castle walls), and the rune marked indoors takes me to the house sign (outside the castle walls).

After applying the patch:
I'm only able to recall to the rune marked indoors, still taking me to the house sign. The courtyard runes cannot be recalled to, giving me the "Something is blocking the location." message. I'm still able to mark runes inside the courtyard. (As intended, I believe.)

Wherever it says recall, the same was tested for gate travel and sacred journey.

Note: I am able to gate to a town, for example, from the courtyard, allowing people to take the gate into the courtyard on the other end. I assume that's how it works on OSI too though.

Possible unintended side-effect:
For custom houses, I am no longer able to recall/gate/journey to runes marked right under the house sign, or runes marked in between steps (because they're part of a house region). This was possible before applying the patch. See the screenshots below:

Yes but according to the report you can mark rune inside the courtyard... casting gate travel, I think it is possible on OSI.

About custom houses recall, can Bama please confirm this?

This should never happen
If you stand under the house sign and mark a rune fine otherwise no.It should take you to in front of the house sign before and after the patch

After applying the patch:
The courtyard runes cannot be recalled to, giving me the "Something is blocking the location." message. I'm still able to mark runes inside the courtyard. (As intended, I believe.)

That's the way it should be

Note: I am able to gate to a town, for example, from the courtyard, allowing people to take the gate into the courtyard on the other end. I assume that's how it works on OSI too though.

Same as if you are on the 2nd floor of your private house and you open a gate.Anyone can go through the gate but they are ejected from the house as soon as they are on the other side of the gate.In this case they are ejected from the courtyard

Possible unintended side-effect:
For custom houses, I am no longer able to recall/gate/journey to runes marked right under the house sign

If the rune was actually marked under the house sign this needs to be fixed

Possible unintended side-effect:
or runes marked in between steps (because they're part of a house region).

You should be able to recall in between the steps because on osi it is not considered part of the house when the steps are removed.Unlike demise where you can remove steps and lock things down in that area

Yes but according to the report you can mark rune inside the courtyard... casting gate travel, I think it is possible on OSI.

About custom houses recall, can Bama please confirm this?

KraZ if what I replied to is not what you need answered let me know

Ah, yeah, that's what I meant. The rune marked inside took me a few tiles south of the house sign (not directly under). It worked the same before and after the patch, though, which was the main point of concern.

Also, does OSI allow recalling to runes marked inside keep walls? (Are you even able to teleport in them on OSI?) I think this patch disallows that too.

This is a confirmed RUN/UO/Razor bug/exploit correct?This is not possible on osi because of the difference in this

So, is this working as it should?

 

[Bama]

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

Is it possible to have a castle placed and open to the public on test center and I will test it?
I have a hard time placing houses

NE from fel yew gate

I am there now would you mind joining me I have to test this with the castle being private as well?

TC is down while I update it real quick, give it about 10 minutes and it should be back.

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

Well I got this much tested Thank-You Fandul
I can mark inside the castle courtyard but I can't recall to the spot I marked in the castle courtyard

 

[Bama]

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

What needs to be tested is the castle set to private,a gate opened in the courtyard and the person being booted to outside of the castle as they appear in the gate if they don't have access to the castle.

Doesn't work like that

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

Well, about the gate kicking players without the house access.
Thing is, I guess on OSI castle courtyards are considered inside the castle, thinking this way can someone post a print of the context menu? (1 click on player character), I wanna see if there is a "Leave House" option =).

The patch I'm posting now will consider the Castle Courtyards as part of castle and kick players trying to access the courtyards without house access.

Note: applying this new fix I guess you will no longer need the GateTravel.cs, SacredJourney.cs and Recall.cs changes, you can change spells scripts to have an OSI Like action block and message... applying only this patch the player will be moved to the ban location, so the spells changes seems illogical. If not equal OSI I guess this solution is better than.

Please test.

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

So just the last patch should be applied to the TC?

 

[Kraz]

Re: [TESTING-TC] Castle Courtyards Should Be No Recall/Gate/SacredJourney Area

If you want it like OSI all the patchs should be applied.

Thing is I guess it is an OSI bug, cannot understand why can you mark a rune at courtyards and get blocked? why not just recalling but to the ban location (outside the house)? I'd apply only the last patch and solve it... players will be able to mark runes "inside" the courtyards but when recall/gate/sacred journey they will be moved to the ban location like if you mark the rune outside.
