OK so I changed the script name to player.pl and it works. But it won't work as an NPC script. Super weird.

No, ENTERZONE has to be on a player.pl script. On an NPC, using a sub EVENT_ENTER is for coming within a proximity of an NPC.

Ahh ok, well then I need a check to see if the NPC is up, for the summon part. If the NPC isn't up then it doesn't need to move them. So a group of players can kill the guardian for the server for a while until he repops, but it will keep new players from zoning in just to loot corpses still. I'll check naggy's script cause I know it does a check for the NPC.

Something I doing on mine, with a customized zone, players have to be script ported in and they will have the option to
go instance or non-instance version. Some like to be alone, others don't, lol

After I get the server migrated to the new machine I can do a lot more with it. That sounds cool.

This isn't the best, but it'll do what you want it to do I believe. When the player zones in the script checks if NPC ID # is spawned. If it is a timer for 30 seconds is set on the player. When the timer expires, the client is moved to the NPC's current co-ordinates.

Code:

sub EVENT_ENTERZONE {

    if ($entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)) {

        quest::settimer("Summon", 30);

    }

}



sub EVENT_TIMER {

    if ($timer eq "Summon") {

        if ($entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)) {

            $client->MovePC($zoneid, $entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)->GetX(), $entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)->GetY(), $entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)->GetZ(), $entity_list->GetNPCByNPCTypeID(#)->GetHeading());

        }

        quest::stoptimer("Summon");

    }

}

Why not just make the NPC spawn immune until that mob is killed? Have like a 30sec timer that checks if the NPC is dead it sets him attackable.

I just checked this out myself. I put it in the player script in nexus for one of the scion ID's and I did indeed get
summoned. I don't need it for FC's purpose, but it gives me other ideas. Thanks to you Kingly :)
I am curious if something like this would be picked up as a "warp" in the db radar system. I'll check it out later.

Seems to me the problem is that you give players #zone. Why not just give them #peqzone instead and disable it in any zone where it causes a problem?

Yeah it's more of a fun thing than preventing any kind of cheat. I just want them to kill that dragon first as sort of a right of passage.

That code looks simple and amazing. Thanks a ton.
