So nice to see how things are going, this is how p99 should have been from the get go. Willing to bet that a good portion of old timers will be returning soon! Good times~

TMO is DDosing the server now, mad they could not participate.

Almost sounds like this is how the server should always be. A bunch of people reliving old times and enjoying classic eq.

FTFY (you went through so much OCD trouble to miss one thing ;P) I see all the little changes you made! Thank you for the OCD list, it was bugging me!

I don't understand why, but apparently repops are actually hard to code (this doesn't make a lot of sense to me; maybe Nilbog can explain. But there must be some slick hack to make it work easily).

There's any number of ways you could get this to work (you're a computer science guy - go check out the code yourself and see) and none of them would be especially difficult. It could be implemented through the quest manager, straight up in C++ with timers, or even as a custom sort of spawn within a single zone that branches out to the rest.

With the exception of a few quite difficult features like the pathing system, LoS checks (the system used was coded by a guy who didn't even understand it and pulled it off the internet and stuck it in, though it's actually quite a decent implementation), and op codes and packet structures for interacting with the client, most of what's going on on an eqemu box is more tedious than difficult. Most every part of it is completely obvious and you just have to know your way around.

Is this real life? Never thought I would see the day

Hats off to the staff. Some people have been clamoring for repops for a long time now, and I think this one was as much fun as they hoped it would be. Looking forward to more of of the same in the future!
