Spawning Mob Script

[Ambron]

Hey guys,

not quite sure if it is the correct forum for this request.

I am trying to write a script which pops mobs every XX minutes on a given location. So i took parts of other scripts and tried to edit them to my interests. Here my code so far (just for popping one mob atm):

Code: Select all

using System;
using System.Reflection;
using DOL.Events;
using DOL.GS.PacketHandler;
using log4net;
using DOL.AI.Brain;

namespace DOL.GS.GameEvents
{
//First, declare our Event and have it implement the IGameEvent interface
public class GuardSpawn
{
/// <summary>
/// Defines a logger for this class.
/// </summary>
private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

//This function is implemented from the IGameEvent
//interface and is called on serverstart when the
//events need to be initialized
[ScriptLoadedEvent]
public static void OnScriptCompiled(DOLEvent e, object sender, EventArgs args)
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_EXAMPLES)
return;

//Output success message
if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
log.Info("GuardSpawn-Script initialized");
}

[ScriptUnloadedEvent]
public static void OnScriptUnloaded(DOLEvent e, object sender, EventArgs args)
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_EXAMPLES)
return;
if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
log.Info("GuardSpawn-Script has stopped! No more Guards will spawn!");

}

private static GameNPC AGuard = null;

//After registering for the OnCharacterCreation Event this function
//is called whenever a new character is created!
public static void AlbGuardSpawn()
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_QUESTS)
return;

GameNPC[] npcs;

npcs = WorldMgr.GetNPCsByName("Albion Knight", (eRealm)1);
if (npcs.Length == 0)
{
AGuard = new DOL.GS.GameNPC();
AGuard.Model = 92;
AGuard.Name = "Albion Knight";
if (log.IsWarnEnabled)
{
log.Warn("Could not find " + AGuard.Name + ", creating ...");
}

AGuard.Realm = eRealm.Albion;
AGuard.CurrentRegionID = 163;
AGuard.Size = 37;
AGuard.Level = 1;
AGuard.MaxSpeedBase = 191;
AGuard.Faction = FactionMgr.GetFactionByID(0);
AGuard.X = 653828;
AGuard.Y = 617359;
AGuard.Z = 9560;
AGuard.Heading = 2070;
AGuard.RespawnInterval = -1;
AGuard.BodyType = 0;

StandardMobBrain brain = new StandardMobBrain();
brain.AggroLevel = 0;
brain.AggroRange = 500;
AGuard.SetOwnBrain(brain);

AGuard.AddToWorld();
log.Info("Albion Knight spawned.");
}
else
{
AGuard = npcs[0];
}
}
}
}

I am already wondering why my first attempt would not work:

Code: Select all

using System;
using System.Reflection;
using DOL.Events;
using DOL.GS.PacketHandler;
using log4net;
using DOL.AI.Brain;

namespace DOL.GS.GameEvents
{
//First, declare our Event and have it implement the IGameEvent interface
public class GuardSpawn
{
/// <summary>
/// Defines a logger for this class.
/// </summary>
private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger(MethodBase.GetCurrentMethod().DeclaringType);

//This function is implemented from the IGameEvent
//interface and is called on serverstart when the
//events need to be initialized
[ScriptLoadedEvent]
public static void OnScriptCompiled(DOLEvent e, object sender, EventArgs args)
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_EXAMPLES)
return;

//Output success message
if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
log.Info("GuardSpawn-Script initialized");
}

[ScriptUnloadedEvent]
public static void OnScriptUnloaded(DOLEvent e, object sender, EventArgs args)
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_EXAMPLES)
return;
if (log.IsInfoEnabled)
log.Info("GuardSpawn-Script has stopped! No more Guards will spawn!");

}

private static GameNPC AGuard = null;

//After registering for the OnCharacterCreation Event this function
//is called whenever a new character is created!
public static void AlbGuardSpawn()
{
if (!ServerProperties.Properties.LOAD_QUESTS)
return;

AGuard = new DOL.GS.GameNPC();
AGuard.Model = 92;
AGuard.Name = "Albion Knight";
if (log.IsWarnEnabled)
{
log.Warn("Could not find " + AGuard.Name + ", creating ...");
}

AGuard.Realm = eRealm.Albion;
AGuard.CurrentRegionID = 163;
AGuard.Size = 37;
AGuard.Level = 1;
AGuard.MaxSpeedBase = 191;
AGuard.Faction = FactionMgr.GetFactionByID(0);
AGuard.X = 653828;
AGuard.Y = 617359;
AGuard.Z = 9560;
AGuard.Heading = 2070;
AGuard.RespawnInterval = -1;
AGuard.BodyType = 0;

StandardMobBrain brain = new StandardMobBrain();
brain.AggroLevel = 0;
brain.AggroRange = 500;
AGuard.SetOwnBrain(brain);

AGuard.AddToWorld();
log.Info("Albion Knight spawned.");
}
}
}

Both codes end up in no mob at the specified location. Not sure if i could somehow search for the Mob so i know if it is just spawned on the wrong location. The server-log shows me "GuardSpawn-Script initialized".
