I know I've asked about this in the past but sounded like I may be the only one seeing this spam. Planning to look into ZoneMgr code this weekend to see what's up here.

I believe that may be a new guild hall (you know a purchased one) instead of the standard guild hall. Can you confirm?

As far as I can tell, zone IDs only go up to 1000 (unless they decided to do something really weird). I think it's more likely to be a struct change.

A quick look through the code only shows a few paths that will generate that debug message. I don't think it's zonechange or player profile related, as I suspect things would be broken, rather than just showing a debug message.

I suspect either OP_GuildMemberList, or maybe zonePointStruct.

To test for OP_GuildMemberList, check and see if the zone info in the Guild window is correct, and/or check and see if you get the same debug messages with a character that isn't in a guild. (alternately you could probably replace the opcode for OP_GuiildMemberList with ffff and see if the message goes away).

I could easily see it being this one, because I don't think much attention has been paid to the guild-related code for quite a while.

If it's zonePointStruct, I'd expect that hovering over a zone-exit clickable (like a PoK book) should cause the debug message to print, and a bad zone name in the popup text.

I could also see it being this, as some other issues have been reported that may be related.

True, this came from sitting new guild hall. GuildMemberList sounds like a logical culprit as it happens often enough while just sitting still that it seems to be triggered by someone else's actions... like guildmates entering or leaving a zone etc. Will follow up after I've poked around a bit more this weekend.

Correct me if I am wrong. Instanced zones do get weird numbers though. The purchased guild hall is an instance and not a regular zone.

I haven't looked at the instance stuff that closely, but my impression (which could be wrong) is that the zone id is the same as the "real" zone, but then there's a separate instance id.
