Lake Rathe Gnoll Camp Won't Spawn

[Riklin]

Since most of not all of the day/night spawns do not work correctly with the source from 2015-02-13, can someone go through the steps (in detail please), to correct this issue? I've tried tinkering with some of the values in the spawn_events table, but they change to something different after the change is made and the table is refreshed.

What steps need to be done to make the day/night stuff work correctly if it does not work correctly with a newly loaded database from the source?

I am just curious. Your NPC's are responding to hails correct?

[Riklin]

If you mean normal NPCs, such as those in towns or pok, yes. Normal npc's work normally.

If you are referring to those in the lake rathe gnoll camp, I cannot hail them because they don't spawn, day or night...

Neither does pyzgin in qeynos hills...

Kithicor only has the high level undead in it, all the time, day and night.


yes I have waited through several spawn cycles on each...

What I am asking is if NPC's respond to hails, trying to figure out of your Perl and LUA are working.

[Riklin]

perl and lua are both working. I have run several quests, some which use perl and others which use lua. Monk sash quests for instance use lua, while my custom buffbots in the guild lobby use perl.

I am curious, do you have your /quests/global folder there?

I would toy around with the day / night script and maybe have it do a shout in the zone whenever it switches cycles, you have to narrow this down further.

# This workarounds the problem when booted zone is already in-sync with spawn_events, and since no time updates occur the spawn_condition is defaulted to 0.

	EVENT_CYCLE();

so I noticed my ingame server time and the time entered into spawn-events was off by like 3 or 4 years. I ended up changing my spawn_events year and month to match ingame server time. Now I seem to have the spawns and cycles working correctly.
