Thread: a cloning center problem

I am the mayor of Symphonia, Naboo on the Intrepid server. I was able to place our cloning center a few weeks ago and have run into a problem I was wondering if anyone else had encountered (and hopefully fixed).


Whenever a resident (or even a visitor) dies in or near our city they are not given our local cloning center as the closest available center to revive in. They can clone in our center only if they have it as the pre-designated one. The choice anyone who dies is given is a town a ways from the town (not even the next closest cloning center, but the second one in distance from our town).


Has anyone else encountered this problem or discovered a fix for it?

Actually, yes I have... and I know there was a 'bug-fix' for this a while ago that was supposed to allow only static NPC cities to come up as the closest center, and for Player cities to only come up when predesignated... However I am not entirely sure this is working correctly... as I do believe I have had player cities come up as closest, albeit rather erractically, since then.. and yes the closest is not always the one that comes up when it does....


I'm not in the habit of getting killed too often however, so this isn't something I test frequently, but it might be worth doing so to get some answer on how this is working....

I had heard something about the NPC cities being the only clone spots if not pre-designated, but the city that we are given a choice of cloning at is a player city. Anyone else have any suggestions?

just checking this again...


we still can'tclone inour city as the closest cloning center, just the predesignated one if we have already cloned there


a CSR hasresponded thatthe option should be there and can't seem to figure out why we get another player city (which is two cities away) as our closest one


anyone have any suggestions or solutions

I have to say that i remember the patch that stopped Player cities from showing up as closest...keeping it NPC only. However i have had player cities come up as closest recently, so it begs the question: Is it supposed to come up or isn't it. I know that my town's cloning facility doesn't show up as closest.

We noticed that 98% of the playerbase was going with one core choice,
so we have eliminated "paper" and "scissors" and are now offering a new,
exciting choice based on the iconic "Rock."

if this is still happening, please post this on the bug thread stickied up top with as much info as possible so I can (hopefully) grab someone's attention with it

From what I've been told its like this...


The major cloning centers.. aka the larger cities are the ones you will spawn in. Our city of Sandstorm is around 1.4k away from Wayfar and no matter what you do or where you die.. your closest is in Wayfar. The ONLY way to get your town to be your cloning is to set your cloning there.
