Zeus Sphere bug?

[paladin]

Archived from groups: alt.games.vga-planets (More info?)

I'm playing in a game using Zeus with the Sphere option turned on. I
just ran into a situation that may be a bug and wondering if anyone
else has come across it.

I had a ship going from the SW Quadrant to the NE of the map (1093/1004
to 930/928) Sphere coords at the destination should have been 2930/2928
but in THost my poor ship is sitting in the Ether at 930/928. (BR4 with
Gravatronic drive)

Transitions from north to south and east to west seem to work but
cutting across a corner seems to be a problem. Has anyone else come
across this? Unable to find the version # but the executables are dated
11/10/2004.

Thanks for your help!

Hi Paladin,

I can remember this error.. but thought i had fixed them. I will look into
the code tomorrow.
