POI Questions

[Hackez]

I have been using EQ2Map for qutie some time now and props to you guys and all those who have helped to make it as awesome as it is today.

I had a small question however...

I noticed alot of quests I attempt to do I find matching POI points, e.g. for 6 different POI's of where a mob spawns and only one is valid. Is there any reasonable and/or easy way for you guys to compare identical POI's and eliminate the older ones to help clear up all the dots congesting maps.

For example the Captains in Commonlands for the Light HQ there are roughly 8 POI's yet only 2 are the valid locations.

If I didnt make sense on that let me know and I'll try and reword it. But just a general question...

Thanks

Easy way to compare and remove... no. A simple date compare would not always kill the incorect POI.

What really needs to happen is folks need to report bad POIs on the EQ2Maps site.

Keep in mind, also, that some mobs, items, or nameds spawn at mutiple points. For example, on the "An Eye for Power" HQ, the gems you need may spawn over a wide area. In the "Words of Pure Magic" quest, there are two seperate spawns for each language thingy, in 8 different zones.

I'm aware of that however, Live Update 24 changed quite a few quests by making them obsolete/no longer available and also made some spawns static...I just got done submitting roughly 30 invalid POI locations.

Thanks
