  1. Problem with configuration files is those useful comments are gone(though I do know people tend not read them and just ask others).
  2. I need tool to edit txt based db too! Look all those comas, miss one or misalignment = fail! Yes, slower start time, by few milliseconds. If there is a need for worry that, there are more things to worry about.
  3. Due to popularity, I doubt option 2 get pass =( But hey, this organization works for option 1 too!
  4. Really, no one gives any opinion and just vote? To summarize previous rebate, those who believe TXT is easier to maintain for reasons I have no clue (maybe they don't know how to use MySQL?) And others who favor the change (like me), believe MySQL is the way to go. Besides player db is going to ditch TXT anyways. So if you don't know how to use MySQL, that is a very bad reason. So yeah, I would love to hear some reasons in any option you choose(bonus if you can convince others by prove it)...
  5. @Mindless, I am not good scripting too. If I recall correctly, my script is based on one of the sample/custom script in ea repo back then.. However, trying to find a revision that actually has it would be.. pain....
  6. Yes I have done it before, but sadly I don't have the script anymore..Basically I made a NPC that kills non-GM players in the area then return to its spot, but it is really CPU intense! I can give you some hints though. movenpc to walk getmapxy to get monster in a cell, which means you would make a loop that constantly checks the area around the npc (which is why it is CPU intensive). I can't find any attack related commands in script_commands.txt at this moment, maybe you can try use special effects and fake damage? [EDIT] Another look in that file, "The Event field can be used alternatively to specify other mob properties. Use 2 to specify that the mob should be small, 4 for big monsters, and 8 for special ai mobs (which by default attack other monsters instead of players). You can add these, so using 10 will spawn small monsters that attack other mobs (if you specify both 2 and 4, the small version takes priority)." So I think you can also summon permanent monster with special event flag set, then manually control the AI. [EDIT2] Tried dig through old source code.. not much information, but I did found a command named mobattach that does not exist anymore. It is around revision 7000.
