Default Grouping Issue - Bot Doesn't Rejoin Group After Zoning

Just a heads up for anyone who may have seen this...


Apparently, there is a minor grouping bug when it comes to bots and zoning.

Any bot with the same (database) id as someone in their group (i.e., their owner) will fail to rejoin the group after zoning.

Camping and re-inviting the affected bot resolves the issue..but, this will not keep it from re-occurring the next time a zoning action is taken.

This probaby will affect mercs as well once they are 'better' implemented, since they require a group slot as well.


The chances of this occurring to any one person are astronomical under normal conditions (over 1 in 4 billion, plus...)

I only happened to stumbled across this because I reset all of my auto-increment fields in the database back to 0.


I have no plans to fix this singular issue because of its rarity and the conditions required to reproduce it - the code works, otherwise.

It should, however, be addressed in any rework of the grouping/raiding code.
