Monsters?

[Jdogg]

Well im just wondering how to add monsters so you can have monsters in diffrent maps

[MentaL]

[Kuraisama]

modify the spawnzones in the mysql database

[Jdogg]

you mean list_spawnareas?

[Kuraisama]

yes you need to edit list_spawnareas

[Jdogg]

(`id`,`centerx`,`centery`,`map`,`size`,`montype`,`minmon`,`maxmon`)

What is "centerx centery size minmon maxmon"

[dextermovies]

centerx and centery are the cords, size ?, minmon minimum number of monster that spwan, maxmon maximum number of monsters that spawn ...

if this is incorrect I will happily fix it ..

Yeah, here's how those work:

"centerx + centery" - The area where you want to spawn the mob group (like 5400, 5400)

"size" - How far the mob will be spread out from their center position (setting it to... let's say 80 would mean they would spawn randomly within 80 units of the center position)

"minmon" - Minimum number of the spawned mob to have on the field at any given time. If the server notices less mobs than what is listed here, it will automatically respawn to make it equal to or higher than this number.

"maxmon" - Exact opposite of "minmon". It will tell the server not to exceed this number. If it notices more than this number, it will delete some of the monsters in this spawn group until it is equal to or less than what you have set.

is montype just the ID aegn?

[Kuraisama]

id != montype
id is just a generic id that increases for every new entry into the table (dunno if it has auto increment activated)
montype is the id of the monster, this declares what monster will spawn

[Wouter2004]

In the new update I am working on I have added an unique primary key to the monster table. The current monster id's arent unique and some are missing...

[sevedrihan]

Sounds spiffy to me :)
