Thread: [REPOST]how to fix ::npc to put your npcs in AUTOSPAWN.CFG!!

Purpose: Fix the ::npc command to put npcs into autospawn.cfg via method/buffered writer

Difficulty: -2/10

Assumed Knowledge: Copy/paste

Server Base: Hellz end, should work on ANY of the new server sources

Classes Modified: Client.java

I have noticed Most of the "newer" more "popular" server sources
Dont have the buffered writer method for AUTOSPAWN.CFG like the old fashions servers have,
So I thought to myself...

"WTF the new servers dont have what the old servers do?!"

So I looked into some of the older sources and dugg out the proper way


Procedure
Step 1: first search for

Code:

"npc"

hopefuly your server has the ::npc command ><
you should see something like this:

Code:

else if (command.startsWith("npc")) {
                try

and after that a bunch of code

Step 2: Ok find this

Code:

sendMessage("You spawn an npc");

press enter after the ; and put this.

Code:

NpcMapper(newNPC);

Step 3: Then Search for this

Code:

public void

above this press ENTER a few times,
WATCH FOR THE } IF THERE IS ONE, PRESS ENTER AFTER THIS BEFORE THE PUBLIC VOID OR YOUL GET 100 ERRORS, BELEVE IT!
then put this:

Code:

public void NpcMapper(int newNPC) {
		try {
		BufferedWriter bufferedwriter;
		bufferedwriter = null;
      		bufferedwriter = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter("autospawn.cfg", true));
       		bufferedwriter.write((new StringBuilder()).append("spawn = ").append(newNPC).append("	").append(absX).append("	").append(absY).append("	").append(heightLevel).append("	").append(absX + 1).append("	").append(absY + 1).append("	").append(absX + -1).append("	").append(absY + -1).append("	").append("2").append("	").append("NewNPC").toString());
        	bufferedwriter.newLine();
		bufferedwriter.flush();
		} catch(Exception e) {
		sendMessage("NpcMapper failed.");
		}
}

Credits: 90% to me and 10% to shadow (for teaching me on buffered writers )
there now all your npcs you spawn will be in AUTOSPAWN.CFG and you dont gotta do it the old fashion way
(note: if your server has an [endofspawnlist] the codes will go under that, so just copy/paste them to above it )I havent seen this and I noticed that so just posting it, If it's already there then just let the thread die, I'm sure someone will find this useful
