where is user's current map saved in database?

on your char table. and look for save_map

[serverkid 1]

isn't save_map field is where you're character is saved.

 

what i mean is the character's current location. last_map is only updated when you warped to another location or when the player relogs.

[Brynner 35]

when the player logout it will save its last location. the last warp and save map is not the same. the save map only save if you talk to kafra.

yeah, save_map is where your character is saved. i'm looking for the field where you're character is currently at.

Your current map is saved as `last_map` (including `last_x` and `last_y`) every n seconds (defined in /conf/map-server.conf as `autosave_time`; see also `save_settings` setting).

which is better, getting the last_map from database or

 

attaching the account_id (from sql) then doing something like

getmapxy(.@qmap$,.@qmapx,.@qmapy,0);

If you already did a mysql query to fetch anything for char or login table, its a simple JOIN to fetch the online character including his last_map info too.

But in general, if you got the choice, getmapxy should be faster i guess.
