[BUG] Seven Signs Mobs


Question

Posted (edited)

Hello boys, i'm back with a rare bug in all catacomb/necropolis monsters that i can't solve.

Sometimes when someone hit a monster or a group of them or using Provoke or Agression/Group Hate the monsters stay in its place like without attack desire, them are there, static 

It happen to somebody? may be AI bug? Im using retail AI without modifications. 

 

This i've seen in many servers and without solutions, just restart L2NPC or L2Server. 

 

@MasterToma may be util for your project

I saw this also on retail PTS servers. Unfortunately, I'm far from C4 now, so can't help you here now.

It might be geodata or AI related. For AI you can try to add debug prints to check, if attack desire event comes

Do you use C4 PTS as a base? It's common problem on C4 original files, so maybe just a "some custom" won't be enough. 

 

Also, problem doesn't reproduce at 100%, according to my experience it's about 5% (so each 15-20 train), also - not at all catacombs. I saw it only in catacombs in near Giran harbor (40+ lvl if I remember correctly). 50+ lvl catacombs were good.

 

So, most probably it's a geo-data or path nodes issue. How geo-data can affect AI? L2NPC has logic:

1. Follow the target using path-finding

2. If path wasn't found, increment failure counter, and try again

3. If path-finding failed 10 times, then AI tries to do recovery and tries to teleport to the attacker or to the some random spawn point in his territory.

4. All this is quite complex, catacombs have multi-layered geo, with a lot of corners and walls, so when user does train, he goes into some corner, maybe there pathfinding stops working. Also, due to bug in geo, Mob can't teleport to user (he is in corner - no good places), so mob "hangs", and can't act.

 

@Nevermind25, could you provide more info? Do you see this bug only in some special catacombs, as I mentioned, or in all of them? Does it happen, when user goes into some corner, or when uses some complicated path to get the train?

Hello @MasterToma that bug is in all catacombs but not at the same time, as you say it is not reproduced 100% it happens after some time, may be after some trains. I think that must be the respawn of mobs because sometimes i kill all using //killnpc and when they spawn again are fixed , other way is restarting l2npc so:

 

1 - Not occurs in all cata/necro at the same time

2 - Spawning again may be fixed so i tell users to kill them one by one or if im in home just //killnpc

3 - When mob stuck he dont attack even when player goes at his side and hit, even with short range weapon(dagger, fist).

 

It's hard to try without a live server so many times you think that all is good but when users start his interaction in world some problems can be found :)

Sorry for necro-posting, but maybe it will help someone - problem is in weird bug in density map. Mobs think, there is no players near them, and them switch to sleep mode, so no reaction. To disable it - simply disable sleep mode in L2NPC.exe:

    • It's also the players' fault, because there have been decent servers implementing some of the things you said plus some other 'innovations', plus many QOL things for newbies (ingame bestiary, with drops searchers, etc). In the end, it's the players who decide to feed into that shit and play the most garbage servers simply because the owners of the servers gave their clan leaders 100 euros, or they insta quit the server because they didn't win the first QA, etc, etc, etc.   In the end, if a server is garbage or great it doesn't really matter if the players don't wanna stay in there.   Players are no better than the devs themselves, in the end it seems there are abusive devs who will milk the shit out of their willingly milkable players, or there are none, goes both ways.
    • In my opinion, L2 is dead because the people who make servers didn’t adapt to today’s reality. People are getting older, life moves faster, there are more responsibilities, and less free time. And I’m not even talking about newcomers—how can you expect someone new to this game to learn by Googling every drop location or quest requirement? These things should’ve been integrated into the game, made accessible with just a few clicks through the interface. Instead, so much time was wasted trying to recreate retail-like features that no one asked for. Everyone hates autofarm, but why? Because admins never found a smart way to implement it. You could have made it available only in specific zones, with reduced drops, working like Adrenaline, or auto-teleporting to farm for a limited time per day—just enough to help people with limited time stay relevant in-game. There should also be zones with better drops, where active farming actually matters. Other features feel pointless—like the Life Stone system. Spamming LS to get a skill? Instead, you could create a system where you level up the skill with low chances per level, something that feels progressive and fair. Crafting should be simpler too. Right-click a recipe, and the required materials should show up right there. As for sieges, why not create daily clan war events at peak hours—one for Europeans, one for Latinos? You could spawn crystals inside or outside castles that give points and trigger PvP. Add a boss during the event that gives even more points, and let the top clan in the ranking take the castle. I could go on forever, but what’s the point? The community died because the people who had the knowledge to improve the game just took the easy way out, copying the same server formula over and over until no one could enjoy playing it anymore.
    • It's not because I'm an admin that he treated me differently. I actually gave him several clients from my side without him even knowing they came from me, and most of them had no issues. I was also waiting 3–4 weeks at times for things I bought from AvE, even when I was in a rush. He still delivered in the end. That said, I'm not defending him blindly. I'm just saying it's unlikely he’d risk scamming someone over 60–100€, especially knowing how quickly word spreads here.
    • For exact same reason - there were accusation that I scammed. When was it? 2016? But in that time, admins actually didn't listen. I got banned, then unbaned (when I prooved I've refunded) but I was trash talking to mods. When few months later same shit happened, Grisom (?) old global mod, banned me anyway. You can read somewhere on forum how I was shitting on him for doing that (from other account because original account was banned) - which was banned too. He is not here anymore I think. Back in the days I was well know for not carring that much if I was talking to mod or admin, I didn't hold my tongue. Now You know. Just like You know - if I delay, I deliver or refund. I'm not a scammer, even if my old time haterz love to repeat themselfs like mantra. I don't care.
    • Okay I respect that but why is your other account banned?   I don't think this happened just because you delayed somebodys work even in 2012
