Mouse holes... fixed?

Ok, so I'm not placing my mouse hole until I know that they've worked the kinks out of it. I don't want to lose it and I don't want to drop down to the 1st floor of my house if I happen to place it on the 2nd floor of my L shape or the 3rd floor of my tower.

Can anyone confirm/deny that they are finally working properly?

I thought for sure someone as hard core as yourself would be too busy "pwning" people in Felucca, to worry about uhh, a mouse hole?

My game-time involves every aspect of this game, but thanks for the constructive contribution to this thread.

I see the depth of in-game knowledge is seeping through the number of replies this has received.

And they talk about building community as one of the ROC, hah!

They did say it was fixed, but reports have come in after the fact that people are still losing their holes....

Or something like that....

If I remember right, he plays on Siege, so there would be no Fel, or Tram either, just Siege. Even Siege'rs have homes and enjoy a nice deco'd house as much as the rest of us.

Just wanted to put my two cents in saying

the mouse hole is not what i expected at all....seems to be about 3pixels in size and no way my HUGE Sherry the Mouse would ever fit in it anyways....

Just my Two Cents

I personally have placed and re-deeded the mouse hole 3 times without any problems. However, I heard from people on this board that they lost their moushole when axing it.

I actually play both Siege and Atlantic.

Being a 10+ year vet, I'm fortunate enough to enjoy multiple houses on the same shard and other shards all on the same account.

On Atlantic, I have every character type in the game, fully developled/scrolled/suited.

Here's pics of my houses on Siege and my main house on Atl... I'd like to think that I at least have a lil taste when it comes to decorating ;)

My main residence on Atlantic:

Can you walk through it in rat-form?

Do you still drop down a level if it's placed on a floor other than ground level?


Thanks for the info about axing it too!

You can walk through in Rat form (as a Ninja) or while transformed into a Slime (as a Mage). You will be transported to the same tile one level lower when stepping on the mouse hole. It also works backwards (transporting you back up), but transporting you back up doesn't seem to work correctly if any items are locked down on or around that mouse hole.

Damn... that's what I was hoping they'd fix =[

Ok, good to know.

Also... do you know how close to a door you can place these things?

So... I can walk through them, huh? Do I need to evict the current resident or is this abnormal?

I think it's because of the wall on the 2nd floor. Mine won't teleport me down because there's a wall directly below the mouse hole.

so the mouse hole only works on the 2nd floor and only does so by droping you down a floor... but not actually through the wall?

is this intended?

Yesterday, July 29, after reading the mouse hole redeeding problem had been fixed, and watching a friend test hers in several spots in her house, I decided to move my mouse hole. Hit it with an ax, it poofed --- no deed in my pack, just the message I had destroyed the item. This was on Baja, Malas facet, and the mouse hole was facing south in a customized house. I don't know if any of these things have anything to do with why it poofed. I submitted a bug report, and thought I should warn others just in case.

Oh no that is awful. I may have heritage tokens on baja you can have if you are having trouble getting another one.

Thank you so much for your kind offer!!! You made my UO day.
I'm good on points, I just didn't want others to get the same surprise.
