* Added mintime and maxtime to spawnentry. This will prevent a NPC from spawning outside of the times specified. NPCs spawned in this way will then behave like normal NPCs. They will not despawn on their own, unlike spawn_events/spawn_conditions. NPCs using this that are alone in their spawngroup will attempt to spawn after their respawn timer has expired if the time of day is outside their range. Otherwise, another NPC in the spawngroup will be chosen to spawn. The normal rules (chance, spawn_limit) still apply to these NPCs, this is just another rule added to the system.
mintime and maxtime both represent the in-game EQ Hour. Valid values are 1-24. If either or both of the values are 0, then the NPC will not have any time restriction.
Added a new rule World:BootHour. This allows server admins to specify the EQ hour the server will boot to. Valid options are 1-24. Setting this rule to 0 (default) disables it and world will use whatever time is specified in the DB.
* generated base_spawnentry_repository.h from script
* removed the rule insert from database_update_manifest.cpp.
* Add logging, initializers, minor cleanup
* Remove if/else branch
* Update eqtime.cpp
* Initializers, logging

Changed the wandertype IDs to an enum so we know what we're looking at.
Added new pathgrid type 8 (GridRandomCenterPoint). (SQL required) This new type causes a NPC to alternate between a random waypoint in grid_entries and a random waypoint marked with the new centerpoint column set to true. If no waypoints are marked as a centerpoint, this wandertype will not work. There is no numbering requirement or limit for centerpoints. You can have as many as you need.
New spawngroup field: wp_spawns (SQL required). Added a new spawngroup field, which is a boolean that if true changes the behavior of spawngroups this way: If the spawnpoint in the spawngroup has a grid, the NPC will spawn at a random waypoint location taken from its grid instead of the spawnpoint location.
New randompath behavior: The randompath grid type will now use the closest waypoint as its current waypoint on spawning. This allows multiple spawn locations to use the same grid without having the undesirable behavior of walking to the first waypoint through walls and ignoring waypoint nodes. NPC::GetClosestWaypoint() was renamed to NPC::GetClosestWaypoints() as it was filling a list of multiple waypoints. a new method NPC::GetClosestWaypoint() returns a single waypoint in the form of an integer.
Setting a spawn2 row's 'version' column to -1 will make that spawn appear in all versions of the zone.
This is similar to how doors/objects/groundspawns use version -1.
This should allow us to emulate lives global tables
The options available to filter tables are min_level, max_level, race,
rare, raid, race, class, bodytype, and zone.
race, class, bodytype, and zone are a pipe | separated list of IDs
- 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
Added parameter to LUA and Perl method settime(hour, minute, [update_world = true])
- If update_world is false, the zone will then unsubscribe itself from regular worldserver time synchronizations
Added DB ver 9082 with update to add npc_types texture columns if table does not currently have them
