Help with Map Pins
-
Hey guys!
I've tried a few times to set my own map pins up but they never seem to last over a reset or me logging out.
Am I doing something wrong or is it not possible to do?

I believe there is an option close to where you select Sparring mode related to saving and loading map pins.
-
crafting menu - save map pins.
the server doesnt seem to do it automatically…

The server doesn't do it automatically because it's not an NWN function. I've never dug into those scripts, but I think that map pins are saved by the engine as a local variable on the PC, and local variables on creatures disappear every time there's a reset. I assume that the dialogue option transfers the variables from the character to the character token, which saves them.
That's all a big fat guess.

You need to do the following.
- Crafting Skills Menu- Looks like an anvil
- 2. OOC tool and loot notification
- 8. Save Map pins
Once a reset or you re log you need to do the following
- Crafting Skills Menu- Looks like an anvil
- 2. OOC tool and loot notification
- 9. Load Map pins
Happy mapping.

This is buggy however..I always choose "Save my character" as well
seems to work.so do both..save map pins then save my character..
Ive also found sometimes you need to "Load map pins" after a reset. -

seems to work.Only downside to this method is that you get a new version of your character in your local vault each time you do this. Thus if you "save character" every time you make a map pin, you'll end up with (X) for the number of times you did in your local vault. Needless to say, quite unnecessary.
