0008630: People say faraway locations are in their region when asked for directions
In adventure mode, when you ask pretty much anyone who knows about faraway places for directions to a faraway place (seems somewhat random), they say that the location is in the region that you are currently in. The map still displays the correct location, but the text is wrong.
Go to anyone with a reasonable knowledge of the world (the lord in the mead hall you start in as a locally important human is good)
Ask them for directions to a faraway place (you'll most likely need to look down the list a bit)
If the location is far away enough, this should occur.
No tags attached.
