Summoned Pets Turn to Ghosts

I would say its not dependant of what type of system you're on. Its just a general code issue.

Ok just recompiled and...

No joy...

Keep in mind with presistant zones turned off, there is not a problem (but spawns reset each time the zone idles/sleeps. However turning it back on to test this out, yeah pets still have shadows =(.

KLS what file is it that controls the spawn conditions? I'm just wondering if we can have that code do a depop on any mob named "Sum*" and "Skel_Pet" etc upon a zone becomming active again.

Wouldn't happen to be using PersistentZoneState variable when this is happening would you?

Also if not, can you please tell me any variables you do have set or anything else you think I should know about how your server is setup.

Oh yeah presist is on when this happens. Not enabling it will mess up spawns when a zone goes idle.

Ah yeah I've been told to steer clear of it in the past cause it does not work very well atm. I looked at it briefly and it doesn't differentiate between pc pets and reg npcs when it traverses the spawn list.

Where is it storing the spawn list? Not in the sharemem is it?

If there is some temp file and I can get ahold of the source thats creating that code I'll get to work on to see what I can do to have it not stick any pets in it =).

Actually... What source file does the save?
