First Issue:

How it works on Heritage:
After you get the map to the vendor - when you single click it and hit "teleport to" it will cast recall.
IF you have LRC or Regs IT WILL let you go.
IF YOU DONT have LRC or Regs it will NOT let you go.


How it works on RealUO:
After you get the map to the vendor - when you single click it and hit "teleport to" it will cast recall.
Regardless if you have a Magery Spellbook/LRC/Regs It will teleport you to the location of the Vendor no mattter what so long as you pay the fee.

What needs to be changed:
Regardless of Spellbook, LRC, Regs once you pay the fee it will recall you to the location of the Vendor.


Second Issue:

How it works on Heritage:
Once you are at the Vendor and you HAVE teleported to the location. You can single click the map and teleport back to the location you used the map from ONLY IF you are in a Secure and Safe location (the same rule that is applied when you teleport TO the location of the Vendor)

How it Works on RealUO:
Once you are at the Vendor and you HAVE teleported to the location, You can single click the map and teleport back to the location you used the map from EVEN IF YOU have ran screens and screens away.. I do not know the exact limitations of this not working but from testing it I assume as long as you use this before the 30 Minutes timer(as per RealUO) and this decays you can go back to the location you used it from. REGARDLESS of being in a safe location.

Tested Further:
I ran from the spot I recalled into in trammel near brit all the way to the Brit moongate Then used the moongate to go to Ilsh Spirituality. I then used "return to previous location"
IT WORKED. Allowed me to teleport back to Luna (where I initially used the recall function)

Tested Further: I ran from Yew (where the vendor house I went to was located) to Fel Brit Gate all the way to Fel Despise and tried to return to my original place using the map and I got a "Teleport Failed" message mixed with your standard "you cannot teleport from this location" message. I went outside of the cave and used the map to get back to my original location just fine.

This was all tested on Atlantic with "Mr Nice" while being completely naked with no source of LRC, Mage spellbook, Regs, etc.

Alright now the first issue we will fix.

The second issue sounds like it can be exploited. Seems like a failure on UOs part and I would rather not replicate their incompetence.

Also on a side note, could you re-test number 1 on another character OTHER than Mr Nice? He has 120 Chiv and plenty of tithing points to travel with. Just to be DOUBLE sure on Issue #1.

Ok I sure will. How will you make the recall back function work then? Is ther anyways you can make it so it works within 10-15 tiles of the players house/vendor? Currently it doesnt work at all on ServUO since you have to be in a secure location?

So you can not recall BACK when you are done at the vendor?

I just tried this right now on Palderpatine who doesnt have any skills essentially and all went well.
You can do it without any skill, tithe, spellbooks etc :D

I mean if you have a runebook and what not you sure could but the function was made so you could single click the map and it would take you to the exact location that you were before you used the map at all. Currently on ServUO it still requires you to be in a "Secure" location so basically any vendor that isnt in luna walls will not let you use the function to take you back

Okay I am sure @Dexter can code something where it looks for the original location within x tiles.

Could the distance where you cant teleport back be due to a different sub server?

Yea, you did the testing on EA, did y ou pass a sub server when it failed on returning?

@xG00BERx real UO is based on Sub servers. That little bit of lag you get when you go from one area to the next sometimes. This was because back in the 90's they had to do it like that. We do not have Sub servers.

Also I do not think he did @Dexter since he said he went to Ilshenar and then used it.

Still, sounds like people could exploit it.
