I have to admit I am having a bit of trouble with this as well. For whatever reason, I can't get the NPCs to load their roamboxes from the DB. #ai roambox works fine, but if I give them values in the DB, they just stand there. Is there a trick to it or did I make an error when I merged the code into SVN?

I got the roamboxes to work after i let the zone go down and restarted it after i set the npc to roam.

Well, at least I know it works.

I'll have to keep playing, even after a reboot the NPCs I assigned roamboxes to won't move. Oh well.

I'm also not having any luck getting this to work, could someone be so generous as to tell me how they are doing this step-by-step? I would really appreciate any pointers you guys have to offer.

Thanks,

alright here is how i'm currently using it (nay not be the intended way ;p)

target the mob you want to randomly roam.

#advnpcspawn editgroupbox <spawngroupID> <dist> <max x> <<min x> <max y> <min y> <delay> (as described above by Secrets)

It gives me a message saying GroupID 0 being created. But i hav'nt played around with it much. Only the roamboxes.

<edit> I have to shut down the zone and reboot it to have the mob start roaming also.

I have also been unsuccesful spawning a mob with this command, but i'm sure it's something on my end :P Imma look at the tables this command uses and see if i can get a better understanding.

I've been editing the db directly, I'll have to see what the command does to the DB.

I am getting confused as hell by this new system
which DB table does roam box data stored in?
