    Starting to have troubles with zoning. So far it has happened three times with me today. I also talked with another player and they had it happen to them.

    1. I was using teleporting to zone to a player own town. It started loading the town but it actually teleported me to the main map. Did it later it was fine.

    2. I was zoning into another zone. The zone stated it was offline after entering it. I ended up closing out the game.

    3. Just happened again. I was zoning and it went offline again. But it did finally load.

    I got that a few times yesterday evening. I d-clicked the ladder in my basement and ended up on the overworld. Then a bit later I tried to exit Tanglemire and it sat there for like 20 minutes saying "Waiting for you character to exit the scene".

    Never got a "Networking connection closed by client".

    I got this several times yesterday and today while going between zones or entering a zone from overland.

    [​IMG]

    Then I get tossed up to the Overland.

    Some I was trying to enter were POTs, some were NPC towns. I was also getting the "Waiting for your character to exit the scene" message.

    And getting this again tonight. Trying to log in to my home in Celestis and it got to a around 68% or so, then I got a "Reconnecting to server". Tjhen "Waiting for character to leave previous scene" ... Now it's sitting at "70% Novia: Equipping Avatars". And, there I am standing outside Solannia by the boat to Celestis.

    Why did it make me "leave previous scene"? Is Celestis broken somehow?

    Was able to take the Novia boat to Celestis and enter my basement.

    Just to make this official ... here's my bug template:

    10/15/2020 20:40
    Title: Problems with Zoning
    Reproduction Rate: At least once per session
    Blocker? Kind of?
    Details: Upon zoning sometimes it seems to "fail" to load into the new scene - usually at just before 70%. When this happens the game eventually aborts the zoning attempt and tries to load into Novia. But, first it has to wait for your character to leave the previous scene. Why wait? Just enter that previous scene.
    Steps to Reproduce: Unknown exactly, but in general exit a scene.

    Just now, exiting an elf encounter in Mistrendur, it took nearly two minutes to exit. I did see a "Reconnecting to game server message", so perhaps this is a server connectivity issue.

    Update. Maybe it is the 63% thing. Zoning from Spectral Mines to Ardoris the game hung at 63% for a while, then got a "Disconnected from server, then reconnecting" then "Entering Novia", but now "Waiting for your character to leave the previous scene."

    The thing is, is that I have never had the 63% problem until Tuesday evening. No changes on my end - although there was a patch from Microsoft that I installed today.

    In the end, I was unable to Zone into Ardoris. Got a message about the scene no longer existing ... Had to reenter the game - ended up back in Spectral Mines.

    There was a recent Windows 10 update. Not sure if relevant. The 2 people using the /bug command show using Windows 10.

    Yeah, but the thing is I did not install that Windows 10 update until tonight, but this started for me on Tuesday. I just had it happen again exiting Desolis.

    Unable to enter my basement now. Took me two tries to get into Celestis, and I'm staring at a black game window with no status message in the lower left corner. Had Wireshark running with a filter for the game server and port. Prior to trying to enter the basement I saw two-way UDP traffic, but once I started entering ... just UDP going out to the game server. Nothing coming back.

    This is my second attempt to enter the basement ... had to exit the game the first time. The UI works, in that I can open options with escape or via the upper right icon. and the journal by clicking one of my task list items. My Lua scripts are mostly working. It's almost like the game forgot what it was trying to do ...

    Just wanted to add my user specs to the list as I've had several connection issues over the last couple of days. I haven't been able to find any type of pattern other than it happens when I am zoning though. Yesterday when I left Elysium Mines it took a long time trying to load then dumped me out on the world map. Just now I got kicked out of game trying to take the boat to hidden vale, and then took forever to load back into the game.

    I do know my video card drivers are long out of date but this issue is just from the last couple days. If the issues get worse or don't clear up after a couple days and a computer reboot I'll try updating the drivers.

    I am now receiving the message ""Waiting for your character to leave the previous scene." I was leaving a player owned town to go to another player own town. Took a long time so I ended up closing the game. Tried again and got the same message. Stayed longer in the game on the second try and eventually spawned on the main map and not the the player own town that I was trying to get to.

    Right after exiting a Desert Traveler encounter, I get this ...

    Just had this happen while entering a "Desert Traveler" encounter. Wasn't watching the screen, but when I did I noticed that it said "Entering Novia", then "Waiting for your character to leave the previous scene...". Now I have "Error: The network connection ..." Now, "[ALTAIR9000] Networking connection closed by client."

    Upon logging back in it's sitting at 70% Novia Equipping Avatars...". ... Finally got back into the game. When I got in, there was a Corpion right where I was standing ... Maybe the Corpion and Traveler were fighting over me? (Kidding ... I don't think it works that way)

    Saw another Traveler in the distance, so ran over to them and got right into the scene.

    I am still having problems. Sometimes I zone just fine and sometimes not. Just had the "Waiting for your character to leave the previous scene". Eventually loaded my character on the main map and not the player owned town that I was trying to get to.

    Title: Zoning issues
    Reproduction Rate: Unfortunately seems a bit random
    Blocker? sorta
    Details: Having the same sort of issues as others in this thread.
    I've had at least one "WHEAT" error, and (as you can see from the pic below where I captured/pasted what I saw either during the crash or what I was doing that initiated it.
    Once I was "Resuming" into Mysteria, once I was simply logging in thru Steam...
    One common thread seemed to be that the crash happened as I was at 51% loading, as you can also seen in the collection of snippets in the pic below:

    I loged in to the game into Medolarium, where I was last night. It said waiting for character to leave previous scene. eventually it logged me into the overland map. I have seen this several times lately with my other characters where I did n0ot end up in scenes I tried to enter. it seems very intermitent, and random to me.
