Most NPC won't move

[steakum]

Hi, I thought I saw in the bug list for repack version 2 that most NPC's were not moving (or on patrol). I see in some of the major towns some npc do move, but if you go to instances like Scarlet none of them move.

Did that get fixed in a later repack? I have searched and am not finding anything. I also searched through the commands to see if there was something to start them up.

If this is something that we need to set using the waypoint command has someone already gone through this and done it? I don't mind doing it, but thought I would at least ask in case someone has it done.

Thank you

yea i belive in repack 3.5 it has been fixed

No it hasnt been fixed unless I did something wrong. Everything from Undercity to all new BC content doesnt move until you get really close to it. Is there a fix for this?

i dont kn o if this works or of any fix but i think these are the waypoint commands:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
waypoint
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| add | w | Add wp at current pos |
| show | w | Show wp's for creature |
| hide | w | Hide wp's for creature |
| delete | w | Delete selected wp |
| movehere | w | Move to this wp |
| flags | w | Wp flags |
| waittime | w | Wait time at this wp |
| emote | w | Emote at this wp |
| skin | w | Skin at this wp |
| change | w | Change at this wp |
| info | w | Show info for wp |
| movetype | w | Movement type at wp |

It is with everything now. I have restarted my server several times but nothing is moving. Im not sure what you mean Katie. It was working fine then all of a sudden all the NPC stopped moving. Any ideas or could you explain the waypoint thing.

Does anyone know if this is a bug or something I can fix.

QUESTION:
Are other people besides the two of us experiencing the problem where the NPC's don't patrol/move around? I'm talking about places like Badlands and most instances.

The waypoint command should work to make one move, but if you want all of the NPC's to move you would need to set waypoints on all of them (If I understood that correctly).

Thank you in advance.

Ya, im geting that same problem to... just last night everything was ok and all, everyone was moving and today i start my server and its like a ghost town noone movies o.0

Great now I dont feel so bad for posting this several times. I am not the only one who has seen it work and then all of a sudden everything goes to crap. How can the NPCs move on ther ewaypoints and then all of a sudden stop. It did that to me to. I have no idea why it does this but it does. Is there a fix for this? Does anyone know why this happens?

Just checked undercity, and while many of the NPC's don't move ( vendors really, but don't want them to move) the others do move, even when Im not near them.

They do seem to have move, stop, move functions so sometimes when I ran pst they had stopped, but they do move.
