Table `botdata` is no longer used..it sounds like your using older code - possibly with a newer database.

I left the older 'load_bots.sql' in the deprecated folder in case anyone had a need for it: https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob.../load_bots.sql

I can't say that using it will solve your issues..if used incorrectly, it will probably lead to loss of bot data when you update your code again.


IF ('IF') you want to try using the older script file with your server, you will need to:

1) Re-run eqemu_update.sql and disable bots (options 19?)

2) Manually run the script located in your local repo folder..same location as in that link.

3) Expect there to be 'issues' with those bots as the bot coding fell behind for over a year (the fixes were only applied to the new bots configuration process.)


There should be an auto-conversion process that takes place when you enable bots again (with option 4.)

A few people have had issues with the process..though, I can't figure out why based on the information they provided.


Until your code is updated to post-conversion code, you should not use option 4 or that will break bots with your server.


If you have any questions or doubts about anything in the above, do not attempt a reversion..just ask and we'll see where we need to go.

Copy the tables found here: https://github.com/EQEmu/Server/blob...09_30_bots.sql

Insert via SQL, close server and run a back up of the database. Restart, this is how i got bots functioning properly.

For some reason, the bot schema was not actually working on my end. So i did it all manually.

I had to import the tables manually through SQL, and now bot's work a charm.
