Question About Enchanted Items

Post by slk7 » Tue Apr 01, 2014 7:10 am

Hi, I have a general question about enchanted items-

Are enchanted items supposed to be working? I had assumed that at least EXP rings would work given that there are specific settings regarding them in settings.lua (ALLOW_MULTIPLE_EXP_RINGS, BYPASS_EXP_RING_ONE_PER_WEEK).

However, when a get an enchanted item, like say, Empress Band or Warp Cudgel, after I equip it and wait for the countdown to happen, it never becomes usable. I can't use it from either the item menu, or with an item macro. Granted its been years since i played retail so I may be doing something wrong. I'm just messing with the private server software out of curiosity :-)

Am I doing something wrong, or is this the current expected behavior?

I'm using server rev b19033a93232f9fd19679ef87a9c66d3a1cf14b6 on Windows, and Client Rev: 30140319_0

I'm not sure if this is a bug or expected, so I didn't file a bug report. If it is a bug, let me know and I can file a ticket.

It's a known bug, just zone once or twice once the countdown is up and it should become usable.

I have to zone upwards of 6-7 times to get xp rings to be useable (cyan color). Most times it's only 1-2 times, though. Unequipping/re-equipping rarely works for me.

Removing the custom time offset seems to have fixed the item timers. Update and rebuild your server and they should be working.
