Giant Spiders drops i_spider_web in sleeping sector
Sphere console gives warnings about too many items in different sleeping sectors. When you go there in game the problem disappear. I found out that the issue is related to spider's webs, giant spiders are able to drop webs in sleeping sector but the timer on the spider web doesnt work because of the sleeping sector. The problem is solved setting can_o_nosleep on i_spider_web item
Ok the item are added here: https://github.com/Sphereserver/Source-X/blob/8e444840f7e916126f5f4c1a56b4049e34b20fbd/src/game/chars/CCharNPCAct.cpp#L1918-L1949
A check for sector sleep should be add on spider and fire elemental
This bug is weird because: 1- In sleeping sector NPC sleep and dont do special action (Just tested and it work) 2- Item with decay flag suppose to always continue timer and decay on sleeping sector (Just tested and it work)
I was about to add some check on the core to prevent a: prevent npc to spawn item id sector sleep b: Add can_o_nosleep flag on item.
But both are useless because 1 and 2 work.....
I try to reproduce but i'm not able... I spawn 250 spider on britain and they make spider web everywhere.. I leave for 10 mins, (Sector sleep after 1 min) When I come back there no web.
whats the bug then?
Don't know... was not able to reproduce.. Maybe David was using an old build before we added the "decay" don't sleep
it seems to be along the edge of sleeping sectors. from what i recall. i did the same fix as david can_o_nosleep
Is that still happening with a recent build, such latest dev one? This bug sounds weird to me since i recall we fixed a similar (if not identical) issue.
I removed can_o_nosleep from the web script, so I'll see if the problem persists
This may be the same problem as Issue #1229, since the time between wander and idle actions of the npc is very short, it is constantly switching between wander and idle very quickly and thus wants to add spiderweb every time.
I think _SetTimeoutS under NPC_Act_Idle can be tied to motivation. so I think most of the npc bugs will be solved with this or the time can be set as it was before. it's too fast right now
I solved it temporarily with the script
under t_web.
[typedef t_web]
on@create
timer={ 5 10}
on=@timer
remove
return 1
This way, there is no accumulation of cobwebs as they are quickly removed after they have formed.
I confirm the issue
But at the moment the sector is awake, all item are removed
It's normal the NPC have this method void CChar::NPC_Act_Idle() on them when they are on a sleeping sector?
The temporary fix, CAN=can_o_nosleep on the spider web itemdef, doesn't work either
