Miscellaneous: Boat from Erudin to Qeynos Bugged/Broken

[Deathrydar]

Ok then, let's start another one!

The devs said you need to swim to around -400 -1700, wait for the boat, and hop onto it when it arrives by swimming into it - this is a temporary workaround. (Best to aim for the mast.)
Yes, I tested it, and yes, it works.

This wasn't from the devs, lol.

A group of people and myself worked this method out, and I posted it when I was able to nail down the locs.

Fair enough. Someone told me it was devs, but you know...Chinese whispers.

The shuttle -- see below

Is still stuck.

Updated via boarding boat in Qeynos -- when boat arrived in Erudin, the shuttle (see above) did not meet with the boat for loading/unloading of passengers.

[Orzenn]

Ok. I boarded the boat in South Qeynos AND timed the route. Results as below.

Boat docking in Qeynos (starting point):
00 mins 00.00 secs

Boat Zoned into Erud's Crossing:
01 mins 39.60 secs
arrival at dock:
03 mins 34.16 secs

Boat Zoned into Erudin
06 mins 44.69 secs
arrival at dock point:
07 mins 45.22 secs
(people waiting on shuttle at the time report it did not move, and I visually confirmed shuttle did NOT dock with boat)

Boat Zoned into Erud's Crossing:
09 mins 22.13 secs
arrival at dock:
11 mins 56.84 secs

Boat Zoned into Qeynos:
14 mins 29.07 secs
arrival at dock:
15 mins 26.37 secs

So, the boat cycles it's entire route in 15 minutes 26.37 seconds (that's from Dock to Dock)

One person on the shuttle reported his waiting time at 75 minutes. Assuming his measurement is exact, the would mean the boat had cycled it's route 4.86 times.

In short: the shuttle IS broken.

Screen shots of timing and the shuttle NOT docking with the boat available upon request.

Bumping this one too in an attempt to get a developer's attention. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

it's about 2 or 3 pages in, but they know about it (Kanras is working on it), and it is more than "The boat is fine, I'm on it right now..." [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

A bug like this really needs to be identified in big bold letters at the top of the p1999 home page. It would save a lot of grief and wasted time.

^ Agreed 100%. This absolutely should be sticky'd in order to not confuse and frustrate the hell out of people.


Although I will say, I finally /petitioned to get me out of Odus and go to Qeynos due to Erudin's transportation obviously being broken. Before I knew it (in less than 10 seconds after I petitioned), I was ported to South Qeynos docks.


Sure it's not the ideal solution to this, but it easily and safely got my poor newb Erudite out of Odus finally. Perhaps the more people petitioning for ports, the more attention this massive issue will get.
