[useless discovery] "Old World Trigger"

[dmc22]

Well we know that each continent is a very large instance. Could we change the instance that zeppelin is taking you to? Like change An continents instance port into something completely different. What would be more useful is to learn how to activate these triggers.

A trigger, triggers something.
IE: You could have a trigger, placed somewhere, that when you step over it and do x/y, it does action A.

[dmc22]

The question is how to find action x/y.

If anyone finds more info on these triggers please post it or pm me. I find this topic very interesting, and possibly could lead to something very big such as finding the exact spots you need to be to port somewhere EG hidden instances. Triggers could be used for anything.

Sue me if I can't remember the list correctly but each continent is a map.
Map ID's:
0 Eastern Kingdom
1 Kalimdor
(I think) 21 GM Island
560 Outland/Azyremyst/Whatever the hell the blood elf place is called
Back before TBC someone created an .MPQ that would change where a zeppelin is going, so he could get from Orgrimmar to GM Island.
Even tho' there is no portal, zeppelins are (sort of) instances. During the trip to the GM Island, you could see other people on the zeppelin and they could see you, but when you left the zeppelin and stepped onto GM Island, you would disappear on the other player's screen since you are now many units away from him.

Confirmed.

I use the Pocket Gnome program and I see this in arenas and near boats. I suppose it is part of the system to make things work.
