Unknowns
From FFXIV Classic Wiki
An unorganized list of long-standing unknowns with the client.
Magitek Terminals
| Description | In instanced dungeons, these have a circular aura effect around them to signal where players need to stand for a period of time to activate it. |
| Problem | Figuring out the trigger for this effect is unknown. |
| Notes | BgObj model b936. Textures for the effect appear packed along with each variation of the model. Calling LIB animations does nothing for it other than the 'pulse' effect in the 3-9 range. |
Linkshell/Company strings
| Description | There are GameMessages involving the name of a Linkshell or Company in its dialog. |
| Problem | Sending an Invite or equipping an LS displays a "." in text. |
| Notes | WorldMaster strings like 25131, 25150, and 25151 exhibit the issue. In the sheets they're called under [@STRING($EA(2))] or [@STRING($EB(49))]. $EA operator - We do not know what its function is or how to set values in the client for it to use. $EB operator - calling values that far (eg. 15+) is unknown how to set since it's out of the luaParam range for SendGameMessage |
| Description | During zone transitions into quest-related triggers, the namebar of the player is hidden and they're unable to move until presumably the server dictates they're able to do so. |
| Problem | This isn't replicated at present. |
| Notes | Need to research for accuracy reasons. |
