Question about quest code

[Bdiddy]

Below is the code for Terris Thule in nightmareb, can someone explain to me what is going on on the death event and the timer event? I read the wiki but woudn't figure these two out exactly.

Also on a side note, is there a way to keep an npc from running at low health and how exactly do i make them kos. I tried Georges tool to make an npc kos faction but i still con indiff with or w/o the gm flag on. thx

Upon death another NPC will spawn at the location of NPC that was killed.

Timer is just a leash to keep the NPC in a certain spot, but looks like the NPC will despawn if outside of the specificed x, y coordinates.

Faction and whether a npc will flee are simple fixes in the db. PEQ db editor can do this fairly simply.
