The north command not working after turn undead

Post by Zorinar » Thu Apr 14, 2011 9:38 pm

Hi,
My evil priest commanded an undead. The skeleton follows as it should but while I am with it in the open map, the "n" command does not work. Nor does typing "north" work. All i get is a newline from the mud. Other directions work fine. It works when I leave the undead outside and walk around in waterdeep though. But when I get back outside it no longer works.

I suspect it is somehow tied in with the undead following me or the turn undead command.

Edit:
After my control ended on the skeleton I was able to go north again in the wilderness map.
Something must be off with the turn undead command that commands them to follow the evil priest.

This is just...bizarre! I can't reproduce it, even with a Cleric of Talona cooked up special for the occasion (on the testport). It happens reproducibly, that is, it's happened more than once, with more than one type of undead minion?!?

It happens every single time I command an undead.
I have checked for some kind of weird alias I might have on the system, but nothing.
All I get is a new line returned from the mud.
I am more than happy to demonstrate it. :)

When the Undead is sitting or not following me, I can move north again.

Could you try using DRAG <something> NORTH with an undead in tow, and see if that works, please?
