Instance entry level not correct...

Which part of SM did you try ?

Graveyard and Library, the two without doors in front. Both refused entry to my 29 rogue and 33 hunter.

According to LFGDungeons.DBC

SM has a Min lvl of 29 and a Max lvl of 48.


I know that's not the absolute rules

True, but why is it not letting lv29 toons in? It says you need to be 29. Get a 29 toon and you cannot get in. Very strange.

SELECT id,`name`,required_level FROM areatrigger_teleport WHERE target_map=189;

45,Scarlet Monastery - Graveyard (Entrance),29
610,Scarlet Monastery - Cathedral (Entrance),35
612,Scarlet Monastery - Armory (Entrance),33
614,Scarlet Monastery - Library (Entrance),31

Well, some idea is seen here, but I cannot say, is it wrong.

However, this mechanic does not explain a weird implementation bug with double call to Player::TeleportTo() due to delayed teleporting. For this particular instance, several entry ATs are defined. The 1st call returns OK for level 29, but the 2nd call finds an unpredictable AT from the fourth ones, depending on the DB entries order.

The bug has the most beatiful look in such case: 1) as a non-GM 29 lvl character, try to enter the enabled - left for 29 lvl - teleport; 2) get "Required level 35" error; 3) go away from the instance entrance; 4) .gm on will now teleport you into the instance.

Using GM mode will teleport you into anything, even Onyxia at level 1 and without the item required. A side-effect of this bug is that if a player, say level 30, attempts to enter SM and cannot, I cannot teleport them as a GM anywhere. For example, I could not teleport my fiance from the instance-gates for SM back to Brill. It says the player is already being teleported even though she was not. The only fix is for her to log and come back. It is kind of like a teleport flag is permanently set.

You did miss a point in the algorithm above.

Anyway, these both are due to a single implementation bug, namely a jammed delayed teleport. @H0zen has fixed it [URL="https://github.com/mangoszero/server/pulls"]here[/URL].
