Description

After logging in as an admin, when trying to switch a character to a different zone from the Zone Switcher page, it originally returned a 404 error looking for 'zonesByIndex.json'. When I went into the public/assets/js folder, the only json file there, was zones.json. So renamed assuming that is the correct file. When I ran again, the 404 was gone, but got an Error 500. Also an uncaught exception:

Uncaught (in promise) SyntaxError: JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Ran the json file through a checker and comes back as good. So my guess is in how the moveCharacter.php is handling the data somehow.

Research direction
Inspect moveCharacter.php for how it reads and processes zones data; check the JSON endpoint and ensure proper content type and data format.
