Lottery Spawn Issues

Hello, DSP

I am playing around with a server, but i realized that my lottery spawns dont seem to be working, I even tried to set the 5% to higher percents by editing the random math values and they still do not spawn, mostly tried Leapy and Emp..

(standard scripts no edits except settings)
So my question is: am i missing something somewhere?

Code: Select all

----------------------------------
-- Area: Valkurm Dunes
-- NM: Valkurm Emperor
-----------------------------------

-----------------------------------
-- onMobDeath
-----------------------------------

function onMobDeath(mob,killer)

    -- Set VE's Window Open Time
    SetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor", os.time(t) + 3600); -- 1 hour
    DeterMob(mob:getID(), true);

    -- Set PH back to normal, then set to respawn spawn
    PH = GetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor");
    SetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor", 0);
    DeterMob(PH, false);
    GetMobByID(PH):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(PH));

end;

-----------------------------------
-- onMobDespawn
-----------------------------------

function onMobDespawn(mob)

    SetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor", os.time(t) + 3600); -- 1 hour
    DeterMob(mob:getID(), true);

	-- Set PH back to normal, then set to respawn spawn
	PH = GetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor");
	SetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor", 0);
	DeterMob(PH, false);
    GetMobByID(PH):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(PH));

end;

    if (Valkurm_Emperor_PH[mob] ~= nil) then

        VE_ToD = GetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor");
        if (VE_ToD <= os.time(t) and GetMobAction(Valkurm_Emperor) == 0) then
            if (math.random(1,20) == 5) then
                UpdateNMSpawnPoint(Valkurm_Emperor);
                GetMobByID(Valkurm_Emperor):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(mob));

Code: Select all

if (math.random(1,20) == 5)
A one in twenty chance, if its been longer than the cooldown time. If you are unlucky that can take a long long time. I can tell you he does spawn on unmodified DarkStar, and I just checked to be sure there wasn't a mobID shift that would have effected it (rarely do mob IDs change, but occasionally happens so I looked).

If you change that code to

Code: Select all

if (math.random(1,5) == 3)
you'll have a one in five chance. (Any number from 1 to 5 works but I chose the middle value because OCD)

Thank you teotwawki,

I tried adjusting it, but i will try again I will set it to a 50% for testing to see if it makes a difference..

If i restart the server it sets him to be ready to spawn correct? because i have not been waiting an hour before trying to spawn him

Edit:
Ok i tried setting it to (1,2) == 2 then.... waited an hour after restarting the server, after killing the PH's for ~2 hours, I commented out the random math and changed the setservervariable to be + 1 for testing.. (which should have set the window time to a second after server is up and spawn after PH is killed, but still no spawn.. im confused.

Additionally I did @spawnmob 17199438, and he did spawn so I dont know.

Code: Select all

function onMobDeath(mob,killer)	
	checkRegime(killer,mob,9,1);
	checkRegime(killer,mob,10,2);
  
    mob = mob:getID();
    if (Valkurm_Emperor_PH[mob] ~= nil) then

        VE_ToD = GetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor");
        if (VE_ToD <= os.time(t) and GetMobAction(Valkurm_Emperor) == 0) then
           --if (math.random(1,2) == 2) then
                UpdateNMSpawnPoint(Valkurm_Emperor);
                GetMobByID(Valkurm_Emperor):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(mob));
                SetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor", mob);
                DeterMob(mob, true);
          --  end
        end
    end
end;

Code: Select all

function onMobDeath(mob,killer)

    -- Set VE's Window Open Time
    SetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor", os.time(t) + 1); -- 1 hour
    DeterMob(mob:getID(), true);

    -- Set PH back to normal, then set to respawn spawn
    PH = GetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor");
    SetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor", 0);
    DeterMob(PH, false);
    GetMobByID(PH):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(PH));

end;

-----------------------------------
-- onMobDespawn
-----------------------------------

function onMobDespawn(mob)

    SetServerVariable("[POP]Valkurm_Emperor", os.time(t) + 1); -- 1 hour
    DeterMob(mob:getID(), true);

	-- Set PH back to normal, then set to respawn spawn
	PH = GetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor");
	SetServerVariable("[PH]Valkurm_Emperor", 0);
	DeterMob(PH, false);
    GetMobByID(PH):setRespawnTime(GetMobRespawnTime(PH));

end;

I'm wondering if the IDs for the placeholders are wrong

set the server variable to zero, get rid of the random check entirely so that every kill of the PH results in a pop, round up all the flies in the area and mow them down. you can also @getid while targetting one to see if the IDs still match.

Right now a lot of monster ID's are wrong, case in point, KB, Behemoth, and a lot of others have new ID's..

Have had a few players camping Lord of Onzozo and are reporting times way over its window and still no pops. I've been forcing it for them after I see them kill the PH for an hour or so when I know its window is open lol. Now I know so I can go in and see if i can locally fix this :). Thank you all.

I removed the math and set the servervariable to 0, I checked the ID's of each PH against the list in /zones/*/MobID.lua and they match, but still no NM (did this for leapy and Emp)

Not sure what is the issue.
