EQEmulator Forums - Spawn question =]

if you have perl XS, and XS classes compiled into your zone... you can do something like this... (not tested, basic idea only):

I have changes that havent been checked in yet that will make this even easier, so heres what should work now, and what will work once I check my crap in:

now (assumes no other NPCs with this type exist in the zone):

Code:

my $npctype = 44444;

quest::spawn($npctype, ......);

my $nmob = $entity_list.GetMobByNpcTypeID($npctype);

if(!$nmob) {

  quest::say("Unable to spawn new mob...");

} else {

  $nmob->AddToHateList($client, 1, 0, 0);

}

once I get my crap in (can have other mobs with same npc type):

Code:

my $npctype = 44444;

my $npcid = quest::spawn($npctype, ......);

my $nmob = $entity_list.GetMobID($npcid);

if(!$nmob) {

  quest::say("Unable to spawn new mob...");

} else {

  $nmob->AddToHateList($client, 1, 0, 0);

}
