Got a bunch, anyone you folks could answer would help me out with making my server a little closer to the real thing.

1. AA: It seems I can allocate points to certain abilites, and others I can. This doesn't seem to be a level/previously allocated points issue, such as advanced innate wisdom require innate wisdom points spent first. Also, does eqemu support AA titles(Baron, Venerable, etc.) and if so, what am I doing wrong?

2. My server doesn't seem to support the new PoP lvl 65 titles(Storm Warned, Warlord, etc.)

3. Is thier a way to randomly populate a given mobs loot table? For example, if I were to kill Aten Ha Ra, make it so that he dropped a piece or 2 of random judgment armor? And if so, can I set this in a config file before I boot the server, thereby negating the need for the #npcloot command? If I have to use that command, it sort of negates the feeling of a truly real and dynamic gaming environment.

4. How do I populate the new PoP zones with their appropriate mobs? All of the ones I #zoned into were empty.

5. All of my doors are missing and the lifts in Kelethin don't work. What am I doing wrong?

6. How do I make npc's respond to hails?
I think that's it, any help would be greatly appreciated.

1. AA's work, but not to the full extent. And no, titles are not in I don't believe.

2. That will hopefully be in a future release (4.1?). Or you can put them in yourself, how? I can't remember :(

3. Unsure

4. The lifts are not implemented yet, some servers do have though. Doors missing? You didn't get the DB addon I am guessing

5. Its called Quest Scripting, to have them say something basic type the following in notepad:

NPC_ID: <ID of the NPC here> {
TRIGGER_TEXT:Hail:{
SAY:Greetings, how are you today?
}
}

Then you save the file as a .qst and save in a folder called "quests" in your emu folder. Thats VERY VERY basic, here are some more commands:

CAST_SPELL - Has the NPC cast a spell
LEVEL - Changes your level
SAY - NPC says
EMOTE - NPC does emote
SHOUT - NPC shouts
TRIGGER_TEXT - When will the NPC talk?
TRIGGER_ITEM - What u hand him to make him talk
RAIN - triggers the rain
EXP - gives you exp
FACE_TARGET - faces the target
SPAWN_ITEM - gives you an item
TRIGGER_DEATH - not sure, kills NPC maybe?
FLAG - flags with a status (100, 150, etc..)
ADD_HATELIST - attacks you
SPAWN_NPC - spawns an NPC
SPAWN_GROUP - spawns a group of NPCs
%CHARNAME% - gives back the characters name
%CHARLEVEL% - gives back the characters level
%CHARCLASS% - gives back the characters class
%CHARRACE% - gives back the characters race

Might sound confusing, but I am tired, lol, I hope i helped some
