It's possible to access strongholds after you no longer meet the level requirements using town portals

Post by Dyndrilliac »

So I'm currently level 15, far outside the range for the Skara Brae Cemetary (4-6), but if someone goes there who can get in normally and then they open a town portal (say to the Portal Room at The Playful Maiden for example), then I can reach the area via the portal despite not meeting the level range requirement.

Need to add a check to the script for the portals created by the portal scrolls (I assume the other scrolls/portal scripts have the same bug) to only teleport you if you meet the level requirement for the destination.

This is fixed. I think this is the only one that did that.

You can also use the portals to ride a mount in places you aren't supposed to.

For example, if I am in a dungeon like the third level of the Ty Swamp shrine, and I open a portal to Bordermarch, I can mount my horse in Bordermarch and go back through the portal to use my mount in that level of the dungeon. It still dismounts me if I try to move from that level to a deeper level (say from second level to third level).

Need to add a check to see if the portal destination allows mounts, and if not, forcibly dismount the PC if they are mounted.
