How hard would it be to nudge monsters off each other?
I was alking around server and all the monsters were ontop of each other. I was thinking if we had some code that made monsters reple other monsters (like magnets) so the closer they got the more they'd want to move away.
I assume this would be easier to do if we go pathing... but if we gave each monster a small circle around them and made the repel each other it should fix up 75% of the spawns that I saw - people with pets, etc. It wouldn't fix things like the gnome city (Acanon?) where you have 10 spidders all on a heap but that's a pathing issue(they're supposed to move)
How hard do you think this would be?
