- When a zone boots, it will spawn an invisible npc by the name of zone_controller
- Lua and Perl scripts can be represented with this npc as zone_controller.pl/lua
- This NPC's ID is ruled be define ZONE_CONTROLLER_NPC_ID 10
- Two EVENT's uniquely are handled with this NPC/controller (They only work with the zone_controller NPC)
- EVENT_SPAWN_ZONE :: All NPC spawns in the zone trigger the controller and pass the following variables:
$spawned_entity_id
$spawned_npc_id
- EVENT_DEATH_ZONE :: All NPC deaths in the zone trigger the controller event and pass the following variables:
$killer_id
$killer_damage
$killer_spell
$killer_skill
$killed_npc_id
This code also allows you to toggle on Tick Pulling (Aggro:AllowTickPulling)
which was a pulling technique (exploit) fixed sometime in 2006
This code also implements assist caps to cut down on trains (5 by default)
Unsure if live what this number is (it exists) or if it's a per NPC basis
An NPC with Assist Aggro will not call for help, only NPCs with Primary Aggro will
would response to client with a type of 2. The intent (based on
comments was to get the client to display a "stand still" message
on the receiving client.
That reply message was not generating that message, but if the client
you were binding was also binding his own wounds, it would cause your
target to stand up, interrupting his bind.
I replaced this client reply with a simple, directed client message. It all
seems to work fine now.
Avoided an extraneous GetItem() call when performing an action that
doesn't return an augment to the player. Added additional error checking
and logging. Improved error messages and code comments.
RoF+ clients now support the built-in adding, swapping, destroying, and
removing of augments in equipment, updating an equipped item's look in
case of ornamentation changes. All clients will now verify that the
proper distiller (or a perfected distiller for RoF+) is being sent for
consumption for safely removing augments. Hard-coded item IDs for
distillers have been replaced with checks on item types.
- Real case use: Large zones with 700 NPC's and you are making fast quick tweaks to nearby NPC's you can refresh just the NPC's around you instead of all in the zone
- This can be quite the time saver
- This command will depop all NPC's and only respawn the NPC's that are 500 units around you or unless you specify otherwise
