So the more I started digging into how they did POI's the more it was a mess so i decided to redesign the POI system and wanted some input.
As you can see i'm breaking it down by sphere -> region -> chunk -> poi instead of it being all over the place on live.
I made a high elf cleric today and hopped in just to run around Leth Nurae. Good heavens but I still think that's the most gorgeous city I've ever seen in a game. It's just breathtaking. Shame the world was dead. :(
Still being worked on daily, If the server is down it's usally not down for long unless i'm asleep or TheFoof isn't around also to check out what caused the crash and bring it back up.
I've been a little busy lately just got Married last sunday. :)

Added handling for snare effects. Lua functions to use are the ApplySnare and ApplySnareTargets functions. See the spell script for the necromancer Torment Line.
Not fully functional yet though. The code is doing what its supposed to do and I can see the attribute module sending the updated speed with the right multiplier,
but the npc is not behaving correctly. On first cast, the npc appears rooted in place until the snare wears off and then it moves, but cannot be slowed down by
subsequent snares. Logging of AttrNPC shows the correct values being sent. We'll need to check consistency of how we are sending speed updates between attribute
code and other sources.
