PEQ Database Editor 1.0 (for servers 0.6.4 and up) - Page 4

CD, thanks for this awesome tool. I have a problem that I hope is an easy fix. After installing the newest version of the editor, i noticed a zone I am trying to populate was not in the list of zones in PEQ editor. I then was able to add the zone into the editor by editing the zones.php file.

The problem I am running into is when I create anything for that zone, it does not work properly. For example I tried creating an NPC, but it did not auto-populate the NPCID. I created my own NPCID but after I was done creating the NPC, it disapeared from the editor like the NPC doesn't exist.

Any ideas on how I can add a zone to the PEQ editor and have it work properly? For reference, I was trying to add the original tutorial zone.

Thanks in advance!

Manual SQL would be more efficient than writing custom code to do what you are asking...

No doubt,

but lots more foolproof would be the solution via the PEQFrontend. Beside not everyone is an SQL Wiz

Don't need to be a wiz.. post what you want to do and you will get SQL.

Change the faction from an entire zone to a specific one

Make all mobs (not) immune to stun

These 2 would be huge.

This is an example. Let's say I want to change all the NPC factions in Butcherblock Mountains to be on Clan Runnyeye:

Code:

UPDATE npc_types SET npc_faction_id = 54 WHERE id >= 68000 AND id < 69000;

Don't forget that will get things like the boat or hidden spawns...

Again, an example. To remove UNSTUNABLE from all NPCs:

Code:

UPDATE npc_types SET npcspecialattks = REPLACE(npcspecialattks, 'N', '');

Remember, this will also catch the pets. If you want pets to stay unstunable, you would add "WHERE id >= 1000"

The item editor looks great, thanks for all your hard work.

Are there any plans to make a more complete spell editor?
I've done, and am still doing, quite a bit of research on spell values and enumerations. I have some framework for my own web-based spell editor / spells_us.txt exporter and will be doing some testing within the next few days.
After looking around at the PEQ Editor source I think it would be easy, and just make more sense, to apply my work there. I'd be happy to send you a patch when I'm done if you're interested.

The spell editor at least has basic functionality, search, edit, and copy spells. You can also export a current spells_us.txt file and download it through the browser.

The interface could probably use a bit better organization, but it gets the job done. For my copy I moved Spells to Spell Sets and made the Spells tab reference the editor and lookup.

I was working off of svn from the 26th of May.

Anyway, I'm really grateful for the work you all put into these tools and I hope this is helpful. If anyone has any more information to plug into spellenums.php I would love to get all of that in one place. The wiki is sort of dated on the topic and I'd eventually like to reference that file to update it.

The installation guide really needs to be updated.

**joligario** · #11 09-20-2010, 06:22 AM

Been that way since r167. Fixed in r196.

Thank you joligario. Item editing/saving works with latest rev now, however we found a similar issue with zone data editing. Saving changes (let's say safe X: value) wont be saved upon clicking Submit Changes.

r203 seems to have issues with the queries used to copy items in the item editor. Lots of referenced columns that don't exist (the unknownXXX and UNKXXX ones).

Sorry about that, fixed in 204.

Still having the same issue.

I think it's happening in lib/items.php copy_item().

edit: Holy non auto line breaks, batman. The relevant bit is:

Code:

Unknown column 'unknown002' in 'field list'

in index.php?editor=items&id=1307&action=7
