Gonna need a bigger boat...

Post by John Adams » Fri Jul 03, 2009 11:01 pm

LE, remember that conversation we had tonight, about large `pos_size` values in Raw data?

So I parse some logs, note that the Overlord's Edge (boat) was pos_size 5590, and I thought that was kinda large. But we determined, 5590 was around 147 crabs long.

You were right. In fact, this model has turned up so large, I cannot even get far enough away to take it's picture without world despawning it from my screen for being out-of-range ;)

But note one thing... see the Size = 255? If RAW data shows 5590, should Size really be tinyint(3)? Imagine how large 5590 actually is, if this is 255? The other spawn to get Size = 255 due to tinyint truncation was The Guurok, on Queen's Colony. But he actually looks normal.

Oddities in our world.
