Spawn mechanism question

Postby freiana » Sun Jan 13, 2013 9:38 pm

Just wondering; Is there some kind of factor that keeps chars from the same player from spawning close to each other, or at least each other's spawn locations?

It doesn't keep them from doing so, but makes it less probable. Characters on roads or ships are not factored in.

Okay, that's what I thought. Thanks!

Don't trust it though, one of my last chars spawned on a location another character of mine was still traveling away from, like at 50% in the road. I was so pissed off.

A similar experience was my reason for asking xD

Yeah. I've taken the habit to avoid creating new characters if I'm traveling with one of mine and I know I'll be returning to the same spot, specially if it's a short trip. I don't want to risk having two chars on the same place.
