Out of range message when distance = 0

Global issue.
1) Just stand on top of someone and try to raise.
Or stand on top of enemy and try to cast attack spells.

I've also gotten an out of range error when trying to raise someone immediately after I've been revived when I haven't yet moved. If I move, then the problem goes away.

Those damn moles ><

Can you give me an example of what kind of enemies you're having issues with? You snagged my curiousity. Since I don't normally cast from on top of something, I went out and thundered some coblyns and beetles from on top of them.. and other than the very uncomfortable feeling of having a spiky spider between my legs, everything worked as normal for me. :<

Not often since mobs often twitch and turn around. But it can pretty much happen with any mob if you get lucky. Easier to reproduce the problem with dead people and raise.

It happens all the time to me as gladiator that I get the out orf range error when standing inside something like a crab or right on top of a cactuar.

Greetings, tymora!

Thank you for posting your concerns about being unable to target players and mobs that you are standing on top of. In order to make sure that the development team has sufficient information to try to replicate this, though, can you please state the names of the specific mobs that you have experienced this with? Also, can you please state which areas have you experience this matter with? I understand that you stated this happened everywhere that you went, but in order to thoroughly investigate this matter, the development team would need areas and mobs to try to recreate what you have experienced. Otherwise, they may go to an area or investigate this situation with mobs that are not influenced with this matter, preventing them from being able to properly conduct an investigation. In addition, any information that you could provide in the following form would be a great help:

ISP:
Type of Internet Connection:
Internet Connection Speed:
Date & Time:
Frequency:
Character Name:
Race:
World:
Class/Level:
Equipment that was used at the time:
Spells that you used:

Thank you for your participation!

ISP: Comcast (doesn't matter)
Type of Internet Connection: Broadband (doesn't matter)
Internet Connection Speed: Broadband (doesn't matter)
Date & Time: All the time
Frequency: 100% reproducible, especially after wipe at Ifrit's or Moogle's.
Character Name: Tymora Estrellauta
Race: Mi'qote
World: Kashuan
Class/Level: THM/50
Equipment that was used at the time: Don't remember (Doesn't matter)
Spells that you used: Raise (but can be reproduced with any targeted ability or spell)

You can reproduce it even faster if you just run into a bigger mob (aldgoat for example), stand under them and then switch to active mode. AA will either tell you you are our of range or that you are too far away from the enemy.

One of the reasons I was against disabling collision detection...

Hello!

I'll go ahead and submit your information for further testing. Any changes, news or updates regarding this matter will either be made directly to this post, or on the Lodestone site at http://lodestone.finalfantasyxiv.com/pl/index.html and official FFXIV forums. Thank you again!
