Willow's Weep - Not so safe rest point?

[CHAT WINDOW TEXT] [Sun Dec 17 14:54:22] You have entered a safe rest area.
[CHAT WINDOW TEXT] [Sun Dec 17 14:54:34] Resting.

[CHAT WINDOW TEXT] [Sun Dec 17 14:54:49] You rest for 8 hours and awaken refreshed.

Seems odd to have a 45% chance of ambush in a safe rest place :)

Was it daytime when you rested?

This line:
[CHAT WINDOW TEXT] [Sun Dec 17 14:54:34] #lspm_restsys# Not safe rest location, Chance of being ambushed

Means that the area isn't a safe rest area. Which is true. But you're in a safe rest area so everything else is ignored.

No it was night time, so I can be ambushed here in Willow's Weep? Hmm ok. Seem's odd isn't it supposed to be a town?

I don't believe the rest system is considering the default NWN safe rest points which is what the first "[CHAT WINDOW TEXT] [Sun Dec 17 14:54:22] You have entered a safe rest area." message stands for.

Maybe one should remove the default rest point and replace with the custom ones (if that's the desired result for that particular place)?

We're not using any default nwn rest points.

That message is when you enter a LSPM safe rest area. However the unsafe message still appears because the area itself is not a safe rest area, even though you're in a safe rest point.

Basically you're in a safe rest point in an unsafe rest area.

The only grey area for this is if the whole area is a NO rest area, then if you're in a "safe" rest area you are ABLE to rest but you still might get ambushed.

----

The system is really flexible to create any type of resting environment we want, but in retrospect it might be kinda confusing to the player....

The rest system debug messages will not be visible in the final release.

I'll look into this.

okay, found the mistake here. The area is supposed to require a restpoint (meaning you can't rest unless you're in a rest point) which is how it was set up. BUT, I forgot to set the spawn % chance to 0 (since you shouldn't be ambushed in said restpoint.) Since there were no rest spawns set up in the area you wouldn't have gotten spawned on anyway... but I fixed this because it was still a mistake (and gave confusing debug messages heh)

Fixed.
