Hail and well met! The newest version of the module will be available shortly, and includes many improved features over the current version, including an alpha-state version of the persisten housing system which allows players to literally place their own houses and modify the interiors without DM or builder assistance. The new version (still being worked on) is currently up to 419 areas, including 50 used strictly for player housing. (Dynamic system involved, so more than 50 placed houses are allowed in the system.) More information will be posted when the update is posted for download. In the meantime, if you wish to preview the module and its features, please visit us online live under PW Story, server name '0 Team Phoenix' Peace UOAbigail _________________________ Download UOACraft at NWVault.

Hail and well met! ;) There is a quasi-heartbeat that runs on the 'timekeeper' placeable object in the non-PC area. It counts to 5 every placeable heartbeat.. then runs the spawner script for every area that currently contains aPC.. and only for the areas that contain the PC. Look for the scripts _uoa_spawn_* -and- _uoa_spn_* for the spawner system. Peace UOAbigail _________________________ Download UOACraft at NWVault. Link Download Ambrosia PW at NWVault. Link

How are critters spawned in Amborsia? I see placeables that appear to be spawners of some sort... but I dont see any HB scripts or anything else that calls for the creatures to spawn... what am I missing?

Hail and well met! I wish to apologize to anyone who has downloaded the _uoa_patch101.hak file in the last.. oh 24-48 hours.. I accidentally included an older .set file for the ttf01.set in the hakpak.. and as a result, anyone entering the forested areas in this version of the module would have their client crash. I have corrected the problem and re-uploaded the hakpak with the proper .set file. Again, I sincerely apologize to anyone whom had this happen to them, and I promise to be a *lot* more careful with future updates. If you had downloaded the _uoa_patch101.hak file within the last 48 hours, you should re-download the file. Its listed as the same name here on nwvault.. but the .rar should be named: UOA_PATCH101Fixed.rar and will contain the corrected hakpak.

Hail and well met! ;) Apologies for the delay in this update.. I know I promised it last week.. but I got into assisting with playtesting an update of UOACraft for another module and was mostly busy there. I have finalized this update.. but the module itself (and many of the new systems included) are far from complete. Please note.. this is a BETA version, and will still have the probability of bugs and unexpected behavior. The server, however, is stable, and is capable of running for days on end, depending on traffic. Have fun and enjoy ;) Peace UOAbigail _________________________ Download UOACraft at NWVault.

Hail and well met! ;) There are a few areas at the fringes.. mainly mountainous areas in Ardonis, and mountains in Tarmona.. oh and the desert and jungle areas in Tarmona as well.. which have few, if any spawners placed as of yet. Your best bet to find the spawns currently is to start as either a human or an elf... and choose the 'Path of Light' and pick either Eldoran, Ardisian, Tarmonan, or one of the elven races if ya happen to be an elf or half-elf. Dwarves are currently started in the mountains in the open cos I dont have their cities built yet, and although Halforcs have their village, there are no internal areas as of yet for the village. Once I have updated a bit of my crafting system.. in about 1 weeks time.. I will return to working on Ambrosia and get some more viable content installed to the module for the next update. Until then, have fun and enjoy the module. :) Peace UOAbigail _________________________ Download UOACraft at NWVault. Link Download Ambrosia PW at NWVault. Link

Hail and well met! ;) Those areas have stuff in them, but you have to remain in the area for longer than 30 seconds for the creatures to begin spawning. The spawner is set on a 30 second spawn cycle. Spawns are random in number based on a specific range of possibilities for each individual spawner. Eventually, after 2-3 minutes, there will be more than 30-40 NPC's or creatures in the area (well most areas.. a few are still being developed hehe) much more than that at any 1 time will bring a server to a crawl due to pathfinding issues and heartbeat scripts and OnPerception scripts, etc. The design is this way for two reasons. 1) If you are just 'running from point a to point b' there wont be creatures in your way or slowing down the server by taking up resources... especially if you have no intention of sticking around and fighting them. 2) If you intend to combat the creatures in the area, the longer you stay in the area the more intense the battles can become... because no matter where you are within the area.. just being 'in' the area will cause the creatures to spawn for that area.. regardless of if you are resting, away from the keyboard, or playing doctor with another gamer. And in some areas it will get your character killed if you dont pay attention. Believe me.. the action can be quite fast-paced.. unless you are using the test area to artificially level-up a character to level 40.. and even then things can be a little fast-paced depending on which areas you are in. Dont worry though.. more content is being added in the next release. ;) Now that the 2 main continents are mapped, work can begin on the internal areas (such as caves and houses and dungeons and temples and crypts and other such locations) Peace UOAbigail _________________________ Download UOACraft at NWVault.

Hail and well met! ;) Hrmm.. I had no idea the hak had been renamed with the companion v1.50, as I have not personally downloaded it.. (I didnt have the old link) I would rename the file for the time being and Ill get the new version for the next update. Thank you for making the report.
