Bot pets give exp
 

Found this out earlier tonight on my server and it appears to be kind of an underground bug atm.

Bot casters when they summon a pet can get rid of that pet with the cmd
#bot pet remove

when done and the pet is targeted this gets rid of the pet....it also gives the player experience that is at least substantial.

i got rid of this by removing pet summoning spells from my bot lineups but i would really like to see an actual fix for this. if anyone knows of a way to fix please let me know :)

Moving this to bots forum.

I'll take a look at this later today... shouldn't be too hard to fix.

kewl beans. sorry if i posted it in the wrong spot but as i use bots with my public server figured bug reports was a good spot :p

thanks in advance for anything you can do with this.

fixed in Rev533

ok awesome. but my question now is this. i dont tend to update the db for ax's db since the few times i do it overwrites my customized spawns and stuff for zones as well as items db and a few other special things

how do i upgrade these databases without killing the customized stuff ive got put in?

The way I keep from losing my custom stuff is to create an Updates.sql file with every change that I have made to the database. I haven't used the AX database, but the PEQ database has the bots_npcs.bat file to save the bots and the drop_system.sql file that cleans everything out except users stuff like character tables. Then there's the update sql file that puts in all the new stuff. Then I just source Updates.sql and source bot_npcs.sql and I'm back where I left off + the db updates.

hmm ok i will have to talk to ax about this figure out the best way to do this

thanks a lot :)

That sounds intersting - however im a total noob when it comes to SQL. Care to explain how that works in detail? How do your custom changes to into the custom.sql file? Is there a trick that i am missing?

Greatly appreciate any help!

no trick, it's not for noobs. it's manually adding the sql code to the updates.sql file by hand. you will need to know sql commands. if you add a custom npc to the npc_types table, you will need to know the sql command to do that. If you use a tool that adds npc's, I think GeorgeS is adding some way to export the command used for his tool and then you would copy that command to your updates.sql file.
