Freeport craft pathing

The expansion may have messed up the pathing in Freeport trade instances. My crafter is a 59 woodworker in Freeport suburb tradeskill instance. If you are doing writs, when positioned at top near fuel merchant, it picks up the tradeskill quest, picks up order, and then trys to run to crafting station. But it just runs into the wall near tradeskill quest giver and can't find it's way to crafting station. Same thing happens even not doing writs .. it can't find it's way from fuel merchant to crafting station. Good side seems to be working from my tests. Could I be missing a file or something? Thanks for help :)

What is your run speed, what is the station your trying to access, and which wall does it run into?

Something similar is happening on the Qeynos side after TSO. If at top, after purchasing raws from the broker, it will attempt to move down to the fuel merchant like before. However, it just runs into the wall before pathing down the stairs. If you manually move the toon down the stairs, it picks up the fuel merchant and proceeds like normal. But it looks like something was changed with the pathing to the fuel merchant. I have no issues finding the crafting stations, however. This toon has 5% run speed and shouldn't affect anything.

He has no run speed buffs. He is a woodworker, and specifically was trying to go to woodworking #2 station. He runs into the walls directly behind the tradeskill writ givers (for rush and normal writs). Basically gets stuck behind the desk, but moving him does not help .. he tries to path into the top level area of crafting and gets stuck in random spots like against railing.

I'll look into the issues, but nothing changed on our end with the pathing.

Try the paths from the experimental tree on the SVN perhaps?

I'll do another update from SVN (I did so yesterday) to catch anything new, and try the experimental ones if regular don't work for me. I'll post with success or failure.

OK, updated to make sure everything was current, and ran crafts for writs again. Same thing ... he gets writ and then tries to run into the top level near Chemistry tables. So I changed nav file to experimental. And it works fine again.

Maybe it is me, but perhaps the freeport nav file is messed up?

The current one is 10.5kb - the one in experimental is 156kb (freeport nav map)
the current one is extremely sparse, and just a few point to point connections, which is why it's having such a hard time getting through doors. the one in experimental actually covers everything the way LavishNav intended.
