SafePoint Locations Patch

[LordCrush]

*edit* 10/08/2003 ... new one is at the end of the thread ... *edit*

Hi all,

it took a litte longer than i thought (RL :D).
I made a shellscript that inserts the locations (all i know) into the mapfiles.

How to do it ?

Download the attached safeloc.gz-File into a tmp-directory, unzip it, copy the mapfiles from CVS or your seq-dir into the same dir, change into that dir and execute the safeloc-script.

./safeloc

Be sure to make the safeloc-sript executable

chmod +x safeloc

The script creates first a *.map.SFLOC file which are backups from the original maps. and patches then the map-files.
After that copy the map-files back into your seq-dir.

Runways can do that in the seq-dir of course :p

The locations are roughly check, but most from web-research and informations on this board. :)
If you find errors plz post them here with zonename and correct location - I will update the file then.
If anybody has the locs that are missing plz post them too. (missing zones at the end of the posting)

[LordCrush]

Found new Loc


Akheva Ruins x=60 y= -1395, near Entrance


I will update Script soon.

Have fun )

- Lord Crush

[Mr. Suspicious]

What happens if there's already a succor point in the map? *by using the ./safeloc in the past for instance* Will it add yet another Succor Point?

[LordCrush]

The script deletes the line with Succor Point before inserting the new Line - so you can do updates too. :)

I took your script and modified it a bit. It's now a perl script that reads a .cfg file. The .cfg file can be edited with vi or whatever you want to add/change points. It's just a bit more straight forward.

The next revision will have the ability to have mutliple "tags" incase you have something custom you care about the rest of the community may not that yu'd like to apply after the new maps are released.

Blueadept has it and i believed uploaded on his site.

[LordCrush]

Thank you :)

I can do a look into perl :D.

only FYI i dont wrote the script, i generate it from a Excel-Sheet with a macro ;)

- Lord Crush

[Nobody]

There wasn't anything wrong with yours, just potential problems when it gets alot longer as well as maintaining with more maps...

I mainly started it when I thought about adding in some other points I like (mapping my favorite camps in certain zones, etc).

[LordCrush]

I look into the cfg-file and adapt the macro that it writes the cfg-file.

- Lord Crush

BTW Nice new look on Blue Adepts Web-Page :)

[LordCrush]

Hi all,

i updated the gz file with Akheva Ruins.

Perhaps a Developer can import the locations into CVS ? :D

Have Fun :)

- Lord Crush

[fee]

Consider it done. I have patched the maps in my local repository and will commit to cvs.

Thanks for the contribution.

[King Tordown]

PoG succor location is the entrance. You Succor on top of the Whirling Energy mobs at the zone in point, not a safe spot if you hunt in that zone.

Howling Stones is also the zone in point.

Sorry I don't have the exact coords right now because I am not in game but when I get them I will re-post

[LordCrush]

Wooot thank you :)

[Morannon]

Sirens Grotto is the Western Wastes zone line
Griegs End is the Dawnshroud Zone
The Deep - Echo Caverns zone
Ssra Temple / Veeshans Peak - zone in

[lildr00d]

Actually Sirens Grotto has 2 Succor spots depending on what side of the zone you are on!


WW side goes to CS side
CS side goes to WW side

[Morannon]

No it doesnt =P

Ive just succored from SG WW side, and ended up where I started.

[LordCrush]

Evac spells do not function like this. They have a set location for where they port you, regardless of where you are in the zone. SG certainly does not have 2 evac points. At the current time, there is only one "safe point" per zone.

from Ratt from this thread

[King Tordown]

Acrylia - at entry point near Grimling Forest zone
Akheva Ruins - x=60 y= -1395, near Entrance
Grieg's End - Dawnshroud Zone
Howling Stones - entry point
Old Sebilis - is the entrance hall
Plane of Growth - entry point
Sirens Grotto - at an intersection south of the WW zone line
SSra Temple - entry point
The Deep - Echo Caverns zone
Veeshan's Peak - entry point
Chardok - zone out point
Grimling Forest - EDITTED - correct coords -952, -1021

this leaves the following zones:

Befallen
Cabilis (West)
Dawn Shrouds Peak
Dragon Necropolis
Erudin
Plane of Mischief
Plane of Sky
Sleeper´s Tomb
Temple of Dalnir
Temple of Veeshan
The Mines of Nurga

EDIT: Chardok point added

[Cambik]

Chardok is the out zone line.....i will try and get a loc when on today.

[King Tordown]

LordCrush,

I have identified an incorrect succor point.

Last night I used succor in Grimling Forest and ended up far away from the indicated succor point. The true succor coords for Grimling Forest are, -952, -1021. This is just inside the wall of the vah shir on the east side of the zone, north of the Hollowshade Moor zone.

[LordCrush]

Hi all,

i was on vacation the last 2 weeks - i will work trough the newest inputs as soon i have time :)

[LordFeshlak]

A few additions (off the top of my head):

Dragon Necropolis - Zone in point
Plane of Mischief - Zone in point (on the same platform)
Sleeper´s Tomb - Zone in point
Temple of Veeshan - (It's almost boring) Zone in point

[S.H.E]

Skyfire Mountains Succor point is incorrect....

I will try and get the location tonight (its near the OT zone)...

[LordCrush]

Brief upadte - was very busy ...

Wakening Lands - Kael Entrance -670,-5000
Emerald Jungle, -1220,4650
Skyfire -1140,-4290
Qeynos Hills 508,83
North Qeynos 430,-75
South Ro -960,135
Sirenes Grotto 195,-35
Kedge Keep 100,15

[LordCrush]

Hi all,

i have updated the patch and included the locations of the PoK-Port-Books in the zones.

Have Fun

[LordCrush]

The cfg file for the Perl patchscript,

I have added the point description ... so the script has to be changed a liitle

[sea4th]

I would like to help with maintaining and improving SEQ but the information on submitting changes to the CVS looks like it requires Linux. Since the Maps are text files, is there a way windows based users can help here. For example I would like to update the succor point in the Sky Fire map listed as the last line to the coordinates next to the OT zone :: -1140 , -4290 .

The work in this thread updates the local copies on the linux box but how about making changes to the CVS maps using a windows web browser?

[Gullork]

I dunno if there is any way to do it with a windows 'browser', but there is a wincvs. You might try that.

[LordCrush]

Let me clarify it a little ...

first thank you for offering help - i will include your Succor point in the next file :)

You need no Linux to access CVS - there are windows clients around that can access CVS.

WinCVS (http://www.wincvs.org/) for example

but there is only a very small group of people that have write access to the CVS.

The normal way to get an selfwritten extention into the CVS is to submit a patch and then a developer will look at it and probalbly include it into the CVS when he or all dev people think that it is a good extention.

[LordCrush]

New Patch Version ... Now included :

PoK-Books (POP)
Dungeon Entrance (LDoN)
Some more points in PoTranq...

Have fun :)

[tamasine]

pooh. why not have labelled the thread "succorpoints" - i was expecting safe points! *8)

on that note, and far more work - and thus rather unlikely... how possible would it be to add block-colour areas into a map. my idea being that you could shade areas where you're "safe" (no wanderers). there are lots of areas like this in many zones. alternatively, red-hashing could indicate the train paths in mistmoore for example.
