Wandering NPC qglobal

[joligario]

Yeah, I missed a close parenthesis.

if (!defined($qglobals{Wanderer})) {

That's what I get for writing code "on the fly" instead of testing it first.

Bah! I'm ashamed I missed that! It appears to be working now. Just need to revamp the 2d and 3d script and try the whole sequence. I'll let you know how it goes. Thanks.

Okay, the following part is not working:

sub EVENT_WAYPOINT 
	{
 	if (($x == $ZoneOutX) && ($y == $ZoneOutY)) 
		{
    		quest::stop();
		quest::delglobal("wanderer");
   		quest::setglobal("wanderer",2,7,"F");
    		quest::depop();
  		}
	}

The npc is not responding to anything in this event. I assumed I should change the previously defined ZoneOuts from 1111 to the actual xy coords of the final waypoint, like so:

my $ZoneOutX = -15972.6;
my $ZoneOutY = 632.1;

Is this correct?

[joligario]

Yes.

Now, in the database, do you have that exact location in the grid_entries as the last grid for his path in that zone? If so, there might be a possibility that he triggers the waypoint before he gets to that exact coordinate. Also, just in case, are you sure the x/y y/x is correct?

[neiv2]

It is the exact location as in grid_entries. And I used #loc on the npc when he was paused at the final waypoint to verify the coords (x comes first using #). Those values are in the definition:

my $ZoneOutX = -15972.6;
my $ZoneOutY = 632.1;

The zone is Qey2hh1 and is on the dirt path right before the zone line with northkarana.

Just out of curiosity, in the WAYPOINT event, shouldn't I be using eq instead of == since technically it's a string?

sub EVENT_WAYPOINT
{
if (($x == $ZoneOutX) && ($y == $ZoneOutY))
{

[neiv2]

That wasn't it. Doesn't work either way.

My other theory is that sub EVENT_WAYPOINT is a relatively recent addition and that my version of the server code simply does not recognize it (I know that's the case with quest::we, which does not work in my world).
