Invisible characters

Post by Kiff »

I am currently using .98.35 (well a slightly older version with the files I was told to move to get the benefit of the new version).

The problem I have is that when a character logs out, they are grey and still visible. I know what you're thinking "You're a GM of course you can see them". Well... that's not the problem. Characters can see the grey pc's until they themselves log out and back in. They can also loot and steal from the offline npcs. They don't dissappear after 6 or 10 minutes either, as I thought they might when they timed out. I tested it myself and it's true, I could see the characters turn grey but still see/snoop them. Any ideas?

PS. For the getting stuck running around bucs den... turns out it wasn't my brother's client. When I changed the files I forgot to change the executable to the new one :? so when I changed it he no longer got stuck. :)

Found and fixed... A bad command-level check.


Notice that with this change, GM's will not be able to see fellow logged-out GM's (Only Admins can see logged out GMs, etc).
