well I dont use bots for buffing actually i jsut make a normal npc spawn using the #spawn #npcspawn create and #npcspawn add commands then make a quest in the zone folder under the quests directory an example is

sub EVENT_SAY{
if ($text=~/hail/i){
quest::say("Hello. If you wish i can cast a [buff] upon you");
}
elsif ($text=~/buff/i){
quest::say("Very well ......... there you have been buffed.");
quest::selfcast(spellidnumberhere);
}
}

Thank you Corvanus.That was what I needed.Got my buff bots up and running.Now I would imagine at this point in the script quest::selfcast(spellidnumberhere) I could put a commonad that would scribe spells and set skills.What would those commands be?
One other thing I'm having trouble find,how do I turn off #zone for everyone that logs into my server.Cant find under any tables or variables.Thanks for any input.

Try here (http://www.eqemulator.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=QuestTutorial). This should get you whatever you need.

What is the Status in your eqemu_config.xml file set to? The code in command.cpp shows the zone command being available at 50.

Thanks Aramid,found what I was looking for.Spellscriber and skillsetter all set up,great!

I looked in my eqemu_config.xml file but I dont understand what Im looking for,code in "command.ccp".I didnt see anything like that.What should I be looking for?

I believe he means the section below. Note it is set to 0 by default in the full config file:

<zones>
<defaultstatus>0</defaultstatus>
<!-- Sets port range for world to use to auto configure zones -->
<ports low="7000" high="7249"/>
</zones>

Ah I see now.What value should I set it to so regular joes logging on will not have access to #zone.

0 for just regular users. What is yours set to now?

The accounts that are already setup you will have to change in your DB as well.
