Asherons Call: Server Double Trouble

| 10 Jan 2003 18:16

If you find multiple copies of your housing objects--especially your hooks and storage chests--in your residence, please remove all items from the hooks/chests and let the house reset. Once you are back to one copy of each hook/chest, they are safe to use again. IF YOU DO NOT DO THIS YOU RUN THE RISK OF LOSING YOUR STORED ITEMS.

How do I tell if I have doubled hooks/chests?
You can determine if you have doubled housing objects by using the [ and ] keys on your keyboard to select the items near you. If you have two or more storage chests, for instance, you will be able to flip between selecting both chests using the [ and ] keys even though you can only see one chest and select one chest with the mouse. Once you have selected one of the doubled housing objects with the keyboard, use the R key to open the object so that you can remove the contents.

How do I let my house reset?
In order for a house to reset, the landblock containing the house needs to be empty of all players for about 10 minutes. You can tell if the house has successfully reset because it will no longer have multiple copies of its housing objects. At that point, it is safe to return your items to their place in your hooks or chests.

What if I'm not around when my hooks and storage doubles? Will I lose everything?
The primary risk of item loss from doubled housing objects occurs when you are transferring items to and from your hooks/chests while they are doubled. If you are not around to be accessing your storage, then the risk of losing items due to doubled housing objects is vanishingly small. So get in the habit of checking for doubled hooks/chests whenever you are transferring items to and from your storage, and you should be fine.
