    Summary: Moving crate keeps returning to original location in guild hall
    Description: I used the new summon_movingcrate command yesterday afternoon in our guild hall, and logged out. When I logged back in and entered the hall later, the crate was back in the original position.

    No one else in the guild has used the command (only one person played yesterday besides me). I tested it again last night before I logged out, moving the crate to a different location. Now I just logged in again and it is back in the original location.

    Is this intended? I noticed that when logging out and back in within a few minutes the crate stayed in the NEW location. Maybe it has something to do with the amount of time.

    It's most likely porting back to the default location when the instance spins down. There's not much reason to make it stay where you summoned it to, though, since the summoning bit works.

    I'll take a look, probably missed a DB save after the move.

    It wasn't intended, and is being looked at. In the meantime, if you want to be sure it stays in the new location, move it a tiny smidge after you summon it, and it should stay.
