Bug: Signpost mouseover box (bug_id 373)

[l333]

zone: Greater Faydark
A signpost mouseover box with zone name "Steamfont" appears around these coordinates (-132.97, -46.42, -653.72) nearly in any direction. Radius of this "effect" is moderate

Interesting, the text for the signpost should be showing (during dev, so we can spot them heh), but the box for Steamfont almost seems like a clickable portal widget... we've run into those before where "Portal to ___" was just standing in the middle of nowhere... the collector ran by while someone had a portal open or something.

Good find!

I tried to click it but got nothing, that's why i thought it was text for the signpost

[John Adams]

Yeah unless we tie a script to the widget, clicking it won't do anything. The fact it showed up leads me to wonder how many more of those are in our data, just randomly about places

[l333]

it should be a "portal" - right-clicking it brings up the menu with "Travel to Steamfont" option

[John Adams]

Are you saying there should definitely be a portal (like a mariner bell?) here, at that location?

[Scatman]

Nah. When someone was collecting there just happened to be a druid portal up to steamfont

Those druid portals are non-existent now anyways. I think it's just 1 portal with an option to every druid ring now.

Correct, Wizard ports too!
