Bosses Despawn or Not Spawn at all

[Piffl / El Majo]

I think all bosses should have fixed positions. Random works badly. I tried and missed 4 ghost dwarves in a row - they spawned for a moment in faraway places and disappeared...

I disagree I remember when the position was fixed when we first started them there were always controlled by the strongest person. Random is best it gives the underdog and opportunity to kill too

True. We had many complaints about it.

But with random place u can be late for boss if he spawns far away...

Good for me. A chance for everybody and a bit of randomness to prevent always be the same. Next time you can be the lucky one.

But maybe they will spawn near one of walking players on map? One wont miss them 100%

new feature: chance:200 means 20% chance (it is calculated by 200/1000).

Is this information actual at this moment?
Or something (items or drop chances) was changed?

Last post 2015 - three years old. Is this list still current?

Lost a pet!

Just have to add this, concerning the OP, for anyone that doesn't understand cron jobs:

Code: Select all

┌───────────── minute (0 - 59)
│ ┌───────────── hour (0 - 23)
│ │ ┌───────────── day of the month (1 - 31)
│ │ │ ┌───────────── month (1 - 12)
│ │ │ │ ┌───────────── day of the week (0 - 6) (Sunday to Saturday;
│ │ │ │ │                                   7 is also Sunday on some systems)
│ │ │ │ │
│ │ │ │ │
* * * * * command to execute

There are others options but this is the one used:
Slash (/)
- - Slashes can be combined with ranges to specify step values.
- - For example, */5 in the minutes field indicates every 5 minutes
- - It is shorthand for the more verbose POSIX form 5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45,50,55,00.
