[FIXED] About magic wall of stone

[Blue Dragon]

Well, I think this is a bug, not sure.

When launched the magic "wall of stone," the Wall crosses the NPC and holds it. Where I playing, it stopped when bumped into the NPC. If player wanted to arrest him, they would surround you with magic and not hold it inside the wall.

Do not know if it is a bug, but stay a observation!

So basically, if a character is in the way when the spell is cast, there would be a piece of the wall missing (on the spot where the character stands)?

[Blue Dragon]

If I understand what you said above, yes!

If you have a character on the way, when the spell is cast it should be an empty tile where in character is stay, but now occurs on the contrary, the wall appears on top of him and holds him. I do not know if you consider it is normal, but...

Trying to better illustrate...

Fixed for next version.

Very nice

Ahhh... Is normal the magic wall of stone and magic fields be eternal if launched by a GM?? Here they do not disappear. Even though I'm using the command ".Make player" they not disappear.

The walls of stone vanish - but the duration of the wall (and for all other field-spells) are based on the caster's magery skill, using the following formula:
caster.mageryskill / 15

This translates into the following durations based on magery skill:
30.0 magery --> 300 / 15 = 20 seconds
50.0 magery --> 500 / 15 = 33 seconds
75.0 magery --> 750 / 15 = 50 seconds
100.0 magery --> 1000 / 15 = 66 seconds

These durations are probably way too long, though! ;D

Here is occurring as I said above. My character is with all skills to 100.0 (1000). GM is they do not disappear. I using the command ". Player make" in me or put privileges = 0, does not disappear the fields. He spent more than 5 minutes and nothing. Sometimes I did something wrong...

[Xuri]

Could you give me an exact way of reproducing this bug from start to finish, on a new character? Whenever I try, the walls vanish after the amount of time I mentioned in my previous post.

[Blue Dragon]

Xuri Look, there's nothing to describe. I only use magic, and it stays there forever. Maybe I did something wrong here, I do not know. If they disappear in your version, everything is ok!

[Xuri]

Ok Re-test it after the next version is released, then.

The fix for this is now available in UOX3 0.99, and on the CVS.
