Little but unpleasant bug

I traveled by guide from Balmora Mages Guild to Ald'ruhn's one. There i decided to use Almsivi Intervention to get to nearest temple (i.e. Ald'ruhn's, i was sure). You'd imagine my surprise when it appeared to be the Temple of Balmora :eek:
Obvious bug!

I'd suggest posting that up in the bug area of Bethsoft's own website, just to be sure they see it. It's not a very obvious problem people would ordinarily stumble over. Good catch!

it's a small flaw in programming, it works like that with every mage guild teleport. My theory is that when you teleport to a mage guild in another town the game doesn't load the town and consequently the nearest town ends up being the one that was last loaded which in your case was Balmora. I had the same thing happen to me when I teleported to Vivec from Ald'ruhn. What you need to do to avoid this from happening in the future is to walk out into the city(Note: I said into the city in Vivec if you walk out of the mage guild you still need to walk out of the foreign quarters plaza else you will still have this problem)

hope this helps.

So

i forvard the Fable's advice to Ares2382 - his investigation is far more complete :)
