Spawning (Staff)

This is a general list of good ideas and bad ideas for the spawner staff.

Importat Remembers

• If you spawn a healer, ankh, town crier, banker or animal trainer, then Lara needs to know so it can get added to the map markers.

Remember Spawns

There are a lot of different mobs and it can be easy to forget even the basic ones. So this is a "don't forget about the ..." list.

Forest Mobs

Mobs that make sense in forests that have no buildings or other living spaces.

Reapers

Swamp

Mobs that make sense in swamp/marsh that have no buildings or other living spaces.

Corpsers, bogling, bogthing

Do Not Spawn

Normal Animals

Instead please use the Herding/Butchering animal

• Cow, Bull -> FattedCow
• Goat, MountainGoat -> FattedGoat

How To

Paragon

Convert multi line spawner to paragon

This is for adding a variable rate of paragon to an existing spawner with 5 to 20 mobs on it.

• Type .addatt xmlparagon (target spawner)
• Type .getatt (target spawner)
• Look at the properties of the xmlspawner by hitting the scroll to the left.
• Set the convertfacter to something near .25, then test.
• Close everything
• Open the spawner and being to hit respawn over and over until the amount of paragons feels good.
• If the number is too high, such as doubles, go back to the .getatt and lower the convertfactor.
• If its not spawning paragons often enough, go back to the .getatt and raise the convertfactor.

Create a dedicated paragon

This is for creating a spawn where the mob is always paragon. But you MUST change the respawn rate or they can camp the paragon.

• Create a spawner and rename, use the word "paragon" at the end of the name
• Type .addatt xmlparagon (target spawner)
• Type .getatt (target spawner)
• Open the xmlspawner
• Add one mob
• Add the following to the end after his name /isparagon/true
• If you wish to override his hue, then add /hue/0
• Edit the props and set the respawn rate to be a few hours on both min and max, so like 1 to 5 hours.

Delete Paragon Attachment

• Type .getatt
• On the right there is a box to check, check that and hit delete at the bottom

Treasure Chests

This is the specific code to write when manually adding them to XMLspawners"

• TreasureLevel1/hue/2700/LockLevel/40/MaxLockLevel/40/RequiredSkill/40
• TreasureLevel2/hue/2700/LockLevel/60/MaxLockLevel/60/RequiredSkill/60
• TreasureLevel3/hue/2700/LockLevel/80/MaxLockLevel/80/RequiredSkill/80
• TreasureLevel4/hue/2700/LockLevel/90/MaxLockLevel/90/RequiredSkill/90

Puzzle Chests

This is the specific code to write when manually adding them to XMLspawners, I also edit them further by changing the level. They automatically spawn at level 2, so add Level/Level#, to change the level (range 1-6)"

• MetalGoldenPuzzleChest/hue/2677
• StrongBoxPuzzle/hue/2677

Colored Horses

You need to set both the body value and the item id so that they stay the right body when mounted.

/bodyvalue/200/itemid/16031

/bodyvalue/204/itemid/16034

/bodyvalue/226/itemid/16032

/bodyvalue/228/itemid/16033

Making Multis

We can make multis that can be added to the xmlspawner from either ingame items created by our .createat or directly from items burned to statics.

• .writemulti filename zmin zmax -noitems -nostatics -nomultis -noaddons -invisble

To add the new file to a spawner, put this in the book:

• MULTIADDON,filename

Filenames

You may wish to force the location /location/(x,y,z)

• bonfirelarge - suitable for giants
• littlecamp - suitable for ratmen and orcs
