Disguise and Server Transitions

Post by Quidix »

I've noticed that whenever one changes server with a disguise, the character enters the world undisguised.

Is this intended? To me it's quite immersion breaking when using disguises.

It's a limitation. There's probably a way to code around it, but that takes time which may be better spent on other things, since it's really just a minor annoyance.

Each server tracks your disguise status separately, up until a reset, so if you disguise yourself as the same thing on all servers, you'll be able to transition freely without having to redo it.

Omg if there is a fix in the works then I would be so happy. This is more than a minor inconvenience when you have descriptions and outfits and aliases set up while doing espionage. One server transition and it could ruin months of RP.
