exiva overlay near/far is off by one
From what I can tell from my own experiments, the cutoff point from near to far is 100 tiles, not 101. i.e. 5–99 squares: to the [direction] 100–250 squares: far to the [direction]
So if I'm right, the exiva overlay is off by one. Would be good if someone else could check this too, just in case I made a mistake.
Which coordinates did you test this on?
https://github.com/tibiamaps/tibia-map/issues/36 has the original research.
Character to exiva stands here: 32624,31919,7 I stand here: 32592,32019,7 and they are 'far to the north', and that's a difference of 100 in the y axis. I take one step closer north, 32592,32018,7, so now I am 99 tiles away, and they are 'to the north'.
Also tested with west and south, same thing - seemed to be 99 tiles for close and 100 tiles for far.
