For a lack of a better term, I will refer to dimensions as world instances.
Each character stores map data for a particular world instance. Concerning servers in which you can swap between world instances, there are these rules:
-
Your character stores map data for each world instance.
-
When you transfer between world instances, you override the map data of the world you arrive in with the map data of the world you departed from.
-
To obtain the map data of a particular world, you must join that world directly instead of transferring to it from another world.
