Variable Descriptions

Opperand_Count = 8

Opcode = 1B24F808

• ObjectID:

ObjectID that you are listing attributes for.

• Position X / Y / Z:

New Position of Object. The value is transformed the following way.

n = X / 4;
if n > 8192 n = n - 16384; 
effective map range is -8192..8192

to convert the a float to position
n = uint16(x * 4.0f + 0.5f);

• UpdateCounter:

Number of movement updates the object has done.

Used to distinguish new updates from potential repeats.

Incremented by 1 each packet.

• Posture:

The byte before direction corresponds to:

Haven't seen it out side the range of 0..5 yet

• Direction:

This is the direction for the object to face after moving.

It is calculated by (Angle / 0.0625) where angle is in radians.

• • Additional Notes:

This packet needs to be sent frequently to prevent start/stop in a movement stream.

Also, shorter distances at slower frequency will create slower speed.

It appears the unknown byte is some sort of server-side interpolation variable.

It doesnt have any affect on the client, as far as we can tell.

This byte seems to be related to the 2 variances of ObjController Transform Packets

used (23 vs 21). See them for further detail. The 23 seems to be sent

in a Data channel signifying it being important. This byte is related to a

count of 21's the occur between a group of 23. The 23 is assumed to be start/end

of a chain of movement while the 21 is an update.
