My home computer is down right now, and I am at work. I usually leave IRC on and sit in that channel. A couple others are usually in that channel too, but during the day we're most likely not going to be there.

Sometime after I get home from work, I'll take a look at this. Thanks.

bug and a question...

First the bug. I converted a standard spawner to a mega spawner which went fine, and it gave the mega spawner the "override individual entries" property which I understand would be correct for standard behavior. Now I go to the spawner and try to delete the override property. Property deletes just fine but when I hit the X button to exit it crashes the server. For me this has been 100% reproducable. Server crash reports --

Now for the question... Is there any way for the system to be able to import a spawn map file like the ones that come with nerun's distro?

Thanks for the great spawn system!

I will look into this bug ASAP. *.map support will be added in eventually ;) I already planned that a while ago, but never implemented it yet. Thanks for the bug report and thanks for the comment. :)

I will be implementing a debug and tracker system. What it will do is track various things within the system. I plan on having it track all of the arraylists as they are being modified. It will timestamp everything, so as soon as something comes out of sync, I will know when and where. I will be able to pinpoint these problems with ease. Also, I will be implementing where if something comes out of sync, instead of crashing the server, it will just respawn the spawner that comes out of sync.

I apologize for the lack of updates for the past few days. I have recently upgraded my home computer, and I am having some difficulties. I will be releasing a new version within the next few days.

If you add new entry to spawner, leave it blank and hit page 2 the server crashes. :( Upon Restarting the server It had wiped all my previous spawns.

I am going to check, I think I may have reverted to a previous system. The same 1 I posted about the search crash. ** Yes, Thats what I have done. Sorry for the false bug report. Thats what I get for putting the script on the play server before updating my developement system. :eek:

Np :) I am working on implementing a debug system that will monitor all parallel arraylists and produce a report. It will also prevent the server from crashing. Instead, it will just respawn the spawner that gets desynched. The report produced will help me identify where the problem is, and therefore, I will be able to fix it a lot quicker. This debug option can be turned on/off in the system configuration.

You don't have to delete nerun's distro. I believe his distro uses Ultimate Spawner, which basically is a front end for the distro spawner I think. If that is the case, then you can just convert your distro spawners to Mega Spawners using the conversion utility.

I am new to the Mega Spawner and so far, I really like it, but I am having trouble with spawning in a metal chest. It wont stop after reaching the Amount to Spawn.

Here are the details:
Spawning Greater Explosion Potion
Spawn Range = 1
Walk Range = 1
Amount to Spawn = 5
Min Delay = 0
Max Delay = 0
Stack Between 1 and 1

Activated is checked
Spawn in Group is not checked
Event Ambush is checked
Moveable is checked

Spawn Type is Regular
Event Range = 1

Any suggestions or is there a problem with spawning in a chest.
