LMFAO! That would be hilarious! So fitting for the event! If only there was a way to load MP3s and play them via a quest command and a link from the net.
I still have more work to do on it and maybe 1 or 2 more event parts for the total event, but it should be pretty awesome when it is all done lol. The pathing part that was submitted in this thread should be complete though. If I do any more tweaks, I will update the script here with them. A couple of my players and me were having fun just testing this script and getting it all tuned last night. We even joked about how funny it would be to have a Giant Raid version that the whole raid has to chase to make it run slower :P
I always try to come up with original ideas for events, and this one came to me when I was thinking about Thanksgiving and the phrase "chicken chasing" came to mind. LOL, I think this event fits that phrase pretty well. With all of the work I put into it, it is kinda sad that it will only be temporary. But, I do think the running code can be useful in other permanent encounters on my server in the future. So, it is all worth it
Note:
Due to the huge numbers of checks this script runs, you probably would want to make sure you aren't logging quests when you are running it. I know my logs were getting huge when I had an issue with the quest that was spitting out errors non-stop while it was running. Basically, you can check if it is an issue by starting the script, and let it run around you for a couple of minutes and check to see if your log files are growing at an insane rate. At one point, I had 12GBs of quest error logs lol. That issue was resolved though, so hopefully this isn't a problem for anyone. I wanted to make sure to point it out incase anyone saw a problem with it creating huge logs.
