Not A Bug Unable to make Vendor Map Twice

[kalel83]

If you make a map to a vendor location with Vendor Search, then destroy the map you cannot seem to make one again to the exact same item.

I tried relogging. Had to make it with a different character.

Has to be a bug, cause I can't think of any reasons to not allow someone to make the same vendor map over and over again.

What exactly are you doing to "Make one again to the exact same item"? Are you hitting the button on the gump? Also, are you getting a message or anything?

Ok, so you can get a map to an item and your added to a cool down list which resets every 30 minutes.

On UO you can re-claim them pretty quickly. I get the need for a cool down though and think it is smart but maybe more like 1 minute?

No message. I hit the gump on the vendor search to make a map and nothing happens, assuming I already made one recently and accidentally threw it on the floor.

Is there any reason to have a delay? Granted there is no reason to make a map, delete it and try to get another one quickly either.

I don't remember why I added the delay, but it was probably was from the way it tested on EA. I'm not going to double check every single thing someone "thinks" isn't right when I did the initial testing. If its shown that I'm wrong, or I'm caught up on other thing and I check my self, I'll fix it, I pinky promise!

Can we go back to one minute tho as apposed to 30 minutes? The timer is so long I thought I could never request the map again, which is why this thread was made.

Like I said, we don't know for sure, so someone needs to check. Meaning, I will probably end up doing it, which won't be any time soon.

Maybe this is a good first test for me to do. Never had an OSI account before.

You don't have to, and I'll get to it eventually.

Okay so I did my testing on Lake Superior.

Here is what I found:

Indeed if I created a map and trashed it right away it would not let me get another one. I got bored waiting after 5 minutes.

Now what is different is if you grab and map and trash it all you have to do is close the vendor search results gump and search again. Closing out of all vendor search gumps re-sets any timer in-place to prevent you from creating a map.
