The "Create NPC" portion of the wiki is HEAVY on database coding and very difficult to follow. Basically, Is there an easy way like #spawn xyz NPC and then #setspawn from in game to place him there? Instead of adding each individual NPC to the database and trying to figure out the exact loc u want him at?

Basically, I want to place a buffbot, a soulbinder, and program my first quest NPC. The wiki (linked below) is wretched. Is there a guide or quick way I can add these things? Thanks!

you are the MAN! I already even have this utility!
So if I was making a "server greeter" or buffbot, or quest guy... where do I put the script? I have just created the spawn, now where do I had the spawn's script? thanks!

If you already created the NPC and he's spawned in game, you have to assign a script to the npc.

Scripts are located in the server folder > QUESTS >

Whatever zone the npc is located in, is where you will create your script. For instance, if you were to make a server greeter name Bob in Nexus, you'd go into your quest>nexus and create a .pl file named Bob.pl

open with notepad and script away. OR you could download georges quests tool and assign the quest through his editor and it will automatically create the .pl file and assign it for you.
