Large Zone Issue
MickScandalous opened this issue ยท 6 comments
I am trying to create a very large zone covering an entire forested area. When I define the area it says it is all set but when I move around it some parts will give the leave or entry message randomly as if the entire selection wasnt added to the zone. when I type /area to see the zones Cords they are correct though
Edit by olee: added detailed information from other post:
I made an area that was very large and made an entry/exit message for it. I then made perms in it for disabling breaking and placing except by certain users. The perms work throught the area, but the entry and exit message appears throught it like if I move to another chunk in the area it will tell me I have left the area even though Im still in it and the perms are still working. I am not sure how or why it does this. ... I'm trying to find out if it has something to do with that chunk or region unloading as I went to Pos2. As I have said it is a really large area.
Please check again.
Maybe the length and width are correct, but the height of the area is not sufficient.
There is no way that areas stop working because of their size, because the code only checks the coordinates.
Also don't forget that it counts as "leaving a zone" if you enter a smaller (higher priority) area inside the larger area.
If you really cannot solve your problem by checking it again, please respond here or better on irc.
There was no reason to close this as you just assumed I did something wrong rather than asking me for more info. I am having this issue and as I would have explained it seems like it is certain chunks in the area I defined that would have been not loaded due to how far away they were. I was wondering if this a part of it.
@MickScandalous I just closed this issue as I am 99.9% sure, that the problem here was just a simple missunderstanding of the system and it's workings and that the problem is not a real issue in FE but more of a support question. That's why I asked you to reply here for more questions, feedback or details.
If - after getting more detailed information from you - it would become certain, that there is indeed a bug present, I would directly reopen this issue. Just because it is marked as "closed" does not mean we mods don't watch and converse on these topics any more.
Even then you don't have to open another issue regarding the same problem as we can always reopen issues.
Now for your problem: You could send me your permission file (if json format) or zipped folder (for flatfile format). That would allow me to see if there are maybe some conflicts in there causing your issues.
Also I'd like to ask for confirmation: Does your problem only occur with entry/exit messages and other permissions work just fine?
PS: I can also really recommend trying to ask for help on this problem in IRC where we have many experienced users who can probably help you even faster (as it's nighttime for me right now).
I have added the.zip of my permissions, My permissions so far appear to be working in the area "EnchantedForest" but as I walk or fly through the area I get the entry and Exit message making it seem like the zone has "Holes" in it or something. I can deny breaking blocks in that area and it will not let me break blocks so perms is working. Im just concerned on why the messages are acting up. Like I said it was such a large area that my FEpos1 would have naturally "Despawned" by the time I got to where I set fepos2 and I wonder if this has something to do with it
Im sorry I was mad eralier I misunderstood what was going on and I thought you were just blowing the topic off and moving on. Im not really sure what this IRC is
Can you try flying through the area again and every time an enter/exit message appears, try using /p list zones. It will show you if there are any different areas defined at these places.
Also: Does only one message appear - i.e. "leaved area..." and only when you move a bit further "entered area..." appears?
