Possible ?find bug


Recommended Posts

Posted

A possible bug I have noticed with the ?find command

 

If I type ?find British I get "British Eagle - Public 0"

 

If I type ?find=British or ?find :British I get "British is in SSCU Trench Wars"

 

There is no way of finding which arena.

?find :name tells you the location of the exact person's name

?find name tells you the location of the person with the closest name you wrote in the zone.

 

ex:

If I type ?find British I get "British Eagle - Public 0"

If you are in the same zone, it will tell you what arena they are in. Otherwise it will just say which zone.

 

EDIT: There are some exceptions, like if the user is logging in right as you '?find' him.

The reason for all this seems to be that the server tries name completion before actually trying to find the exact name.

 

Basically, ?find name is broken and ?find=name and ?find :name are really different commands (this can't really be helped, but ?find name could be fixed).
