Suggestion: Create Table Bot_Npc_Types

[WildcardX]

I am a huge fan of the bot subsystem. I think its a great addition to eqemu and brings a lot of value to the home gamer.

I would suggest moving the "bots" that people create to their own table, separate from the NPC table. I just updated my world database and that is when I just noticed that I had deleted my bots by simply updating my database.

I haven't studied this code in any real detail as I am working on other parts of the server code, but is there a reason why not to separate "bots" from "npc's"?

being able to spawn the bots might be dependant on them being in the npc_types table.

you may have missed the provided script that saves the bots should you want to update your database. Look for bot_npcs.bat or bot_npcs.sh
in your download from peq database.
