Dynamic Mobs Not Respawn MVP! (very small mod)

[ivanyan]

As all of you know, when dynamic_mobs option is swithed to "yes" all MVP & BOSS monsters respawning on restart, but this option is so usefull on small servers, because it's save lots of resources.

 

My modification allows to leave them static! Only MVP & BOSS monsters

 

All you have to do - is to change one line of code in npc.c.

 

if( battle_config.dynamic_mobs && map_addmobtolist(data->m, data) >= 0 )

to

if( battle_config.dynamic_mobs && !mob.state.boss && map_addmobtolist(data->m, data) >= 0 ) 

 

Hope it will be usefull :-D

What would be affect on sever started and use @reloadscript command?

[ivanyan]

Everything will be fine

[Darkpurple]

does it mean not respawn on sever started and use @reloadscript command?

if yes，when respawn？

[ivanyan]

Boss monsters respawn like when option dynamic_mobs switched to off, other mobs respawns like dynamic.

where is the difference? it does not matter if the mobs gets spawned when the map is not empty anymore or when mvps get spawned immediately. as you said, only a matter of ressources.

[ivanyan]

MVP dies on restart, when it is dynamic_mobs "off", but respawn immideately after restart when somebody appears on a map close to MVP when it switched to "on".

That's why I decidet to move boss monsters to static mobs, and all other mobs to dynamic.

 

The difference is, if your server crashes, your MVPs respawn immediately after server start. If it crashes again, MVP respawn again and again and so on... so your players will have tonns of MVP cards, if your server is unstable...

ah okay, i see, then this is very useful.

I hope we will have a mvp spawn table somewhen so that server crashes don't matter anymore.

Once I modified the source line in npc.c; should i leave the dynamic_mobs 1 or 0 for the modification to apply (so ONLY MvP monsters won't respawn on server's reboot) ?

 

Figured out (I think); so the idea is to leave Dynamic_mobs = 1 and to modify the line in npc.c

Someone please correct me if I am wrong, if not then all good
