Thank you for pointing this out, apparently the raw .xml did not get uploaded today. It is fixed now if you want to re-update.

Just of note, when GoArrow routes now I find it uses my recalls (Aphus Lassel, Glenden Wood, Portal Ties) as most of them drop fairly close to one of the Town Network Portals.

The only Error in the way it routes is using Facility Hub Recall, as on the map they are close together, but you can not physically walk from Facility Hub to the Town Network.

Did you move all the destroyed portals to a commented out section in the xml so that if they re-add the portals back you can quickly re-enable them? I'm about 90% certain that they will stay destroyed only for as long as this story arc continues, least I'm hoping they add some of them back in at least.

There is a tag on each of the entries marked Retired, You can specify N (Visible) or Y which makes the entry Invisible so that GoArrow and Dereth Explorer do not show them.

To "fix" them it is as simple as un-tagging them all. (or take an older version of the file and copy/paste everything before this patch)

Glad to hear happy

To everyone else, Thank You for the kind words. I felt this update had to be finished as quickly as possible with the dramatic change in our portal routes.

As always I am just glad to give back to the Asheron's Call Community in any way that I can.

Take Care, and Happy Hunting.

I did a fresh install of goarrow today and updated it in game using the link,

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6604527/downloads/data_cod.xml

It is still giving me the old routes? I also tried updating with the option "remove all custom routes and additions" with the same result.

Hmm looks like the old file was up. I re-uploaded the new one, so it should work now. Thank You for letting me know.

yesterday I did paradox olthoi queen and pulled up the old /goarrow dereth to grab the arrow for BDC, and when I zoomed in, it wasn't labeled as BDC (or Black Death Catacombs). I didn't do a search, because I just thought of that while I was posting this (well after the fact), but I knew which dungeon it was since I grew up there 10 years ago.. I'll check it out when I get home. heh

The map shows Deeper Catacombs (Paradox) and Sealed Olthoi Passage because they are the last 2 markers for that point. I tried to make a marker for the Dungeons, and and Dungeons within the primary Dungeon. If you were to go to Atlas > Search and tpe in Black Death Catacombs, and then went to Locate on Map it would point to the right spot, even if on the map you can not see that Dungeon's Marker.

Just the way GoArrow processes the Database. Last 2 markers are visible.

Hope that made sense tongue


* Merkitz ibn'Akadh [41.7S, 15.8E] has been fixed.

In his description it listed the exit portal as 12.3N, 74.9W, when it should of been 12.3S, 74.9W.
