FIXED Remove Trap Distance for Treasure Chests

[Xeno]

I can only be about 3 steps from the chest before it says that I am too far away. On OSI, it is 16 steps. This is from the official Wiki: https://uo.com/wiki/ultima-online-wiki/skills/remove-trap/

If the player moves more than 16 tiles away from the chest or is killed during the disarming process, the process must be restarted. The disarming process begins when a player uses Remove Trap on the chest.

Crazy that it is that far.

I wonder if being on a boat cancels it?

 

[Xeno]

I have never tried that and anytime I get a map for that tiny island with only 4-5 tiles, I let it sit in my bag for 30 days and reset. Personally, I never stray more than 10 from the chest, I just don't like the Ancient Guardian to spawn almost on top of me.

wait, what? I don't have to stand directly next to the chest and get killed by the blue guys?
What is the parameter of the guardian spawn, next to the chest or next to the player?
you mean i could have actually had a chance to live against some of these?

On OSI, you can be 16 steps away from the chest and still have it work however you need to be within 2 to begin remove trap but can then move away from it. I generally stand 8-10 away so they do not spawn on top of me.
