Area Triggered by NPCs / Mobs?

Post by chibiarc »

Hey hey, I need the following problem solved: 2 areas, if a player enters one something happens (easy) and if a mob / npc enters another one something happens (no idea).

The Zone Trigger only allows for "triggered by player entering / leaving" :(

Any ideas? Thanks :D

And another one, a NPC Group does play a sequence, but does not pick it up again once respawned. Also "on respawn do sequence" does not work somehow.

Only the first group member starts the sequence and once others respawn it stops...

I've always just used "if mob finishes sequence step goto zone". That doesn't work in this case?

Owww, I know I encountered this problem long ago, but I can't for the life of me remember what I did with it. :rolleyes:

Yes I did it with the end of activity route blabla thing and made a tiny route. Also I added a timer to retrigger the "start activity" thing, dirty but works.

Now that you mention it, I think that's what I did too. :o

Add a stand in place timer to the first part of the sequence to allow for the respawn of all of the group members? Say 60 seconds?
