Just posting this so I don't forget about it later

I've noticed some objects in Frostfang Sea on live appear to have adjusted vertical headings so at some point SOE has added this functionality. In other words besides just being able to turn objects/spawns horizontally there is the ability to make them face upwards or downwards more as well.

List of spawns I've noticed this on for a reference:

Spawn ID 4701580 (model id 13279)

Spawn ID 4701728 (model id 2998)

Spawn ID 4701747 (model id 6250)

Spawn ID 4701636 (model id 8194)

On Live, is this part of the "house item placement" functionality? You know, the mouse scroll wheel and some command key combos. It would be interesting to see where this comes from.

Exciting news on this! (exciting for me anyway ) I've identified the element that controls this. It's the 3rd indexed int16 in our unknown10 element inside the position struct. I'm going to take a wild stab and say it's signed like the other headings since the values seem similar. I'll try and update the structs to include this today, the only things I think we send in unknown10 are before this element so it shouldn't affect anything serverside.

(It wasn't my imagination woo)


Way late response to your question John but I don't think its something availible to players normally on live, when I start playing around with this in spawn move will see if I can do something like that though.

EDIT: It looks like they did add something for this actually. http://eq2.wikia.com/wiki/Decorating_Ho ... de_a_House

Looks like it's handled through the command house_edit, will have to do more research on this.

Good job on finding its location.
