Do you know that your DBI is even working?

[freewind1]

yes it is working i used

sub EVENT_SAY {
if($text=~/Hail/i){
if(!$connect){ $connect = plugin::LoadMysql(); }
	$query = "SELECT
		cust_npc_scaling.level,
		cust_npc_scaling.type,
		cust_npc_scaling.hp,
		cust_npc_scaling.mana,
		cust_npc_scaling.mindmg,
		cust_npc_scaling.maxdmg,
		cust_npc_scaling.attack_speed,
		cust_npc_scaling.AC,
		cust_npc_scaling.STR,
		cust_npc_scaling.STA,
		cust_npc_scaling.DEX,
		cust_npc_scaling.AGI,
		cust_npc_scaling._INT,
		cust_npc_scaling.WIS,
		cust_npc_scaling.CHA,
		cust_npc_scaling.MR,
		cust_npc_scaling.CR,
		cust_npc_scaling.DR,
		cust_npc_scaling.FR,
		cust_npc_scaling.PR,
		cust_npc_scaling.hp_regen,
		cust_npc_scaling.npcspecialattks,
		cust_npc_scaling.spellscale,
		cust_npc_scaling.healscale
		FROM
		cust_npc_scaling
		ORDER BY cust_npc_scaling.level, cust_npc_scaling.type";
		$query_handle = $connect->prepare($query);
		$query_handle->execute();
		$NTYPE = 0; my @SD;
		while (@row = $query_handle->fetchrow_array()){ 
		$SD[$row[0]][$row[1]] = [@row];
		quest::say($SD[$row[0]][$row[1]])
		}
}
}

to test it

--------
Sorry for this post i found out why it wasn't working the copy and paste of the zonecontroller did not have #### in front of the insert into field for the zonecontroller NPC i failed miserably and sorry for wasting everyones time

You're not wasting anybody's time when you're consciously making an effort to help yourself.

It's good you got it figured out

This is the segment that was causing the zonecontroller.pl not to work do the multiple lines without a # in front of them, hope this helps the next person who tries this script and doesn't find it right off

Yes you have to manually insert the NPC yourself.
