#advnpcspawn

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?

ah I see I thgout this was made into grid system, this clears a few things up... thanks!

[jenco420]

it seems to be using the X,Y, as a loc for the npc to move there and just chill indefinitly, i'm even more confused now ><

the #ai roambox command seems to be working flawlessly tho, just would like to be able to save them correctly :P
