Spawn Time

[Lifer420]

I have a question. I have certain monsters on my server that I want to spawn once every, let's say, 4 hours. In the map editor the most spawn time you can do is 3600 which is 1 hour. For me to make it spawn in 4 hours instead of one, would I just edit the file in my "blah-spawn.xml" and change the 3600? Or can it not go any higher than 3600?

<singlespawn delay="14400" name="NAME" x="1000" y="1000" z="7"/>

<singlespawn delay="14400" name="NAME" x="1000" y="1000" z="7"/>

So what do I do with that? Throw it in spawn.xml and change name to mine and the position to where mine is? So the spawn delay will be four hours from when ever it spawns and dies?

change the one that is in your spawn.xml already, just change the delay and save

I'm using tfs 0.4 dev 3884, the spawn is diff.

<spawn centerx 1000 centery 1000 centerz 7 radius="1">
<monster name="XXXXX" x="1" y=. Z=" spawntime="60"/>

But if I change the spawn time to more than an hour will it actually do it at that time or max out at an hour?

probably do it as specified unless your load and save ur map again, so the mapeditor will cap it to 1 hour again so watch out!

Just add it in a raid

The maximum spawn time is 2 hours actually. 30 spawntime is 60 seconds, which is 1 minute. 3600 spawntime is 2 hours.
