A bug with monster spawns?
« Topic Start: April 23, 2014, 06:38:00 PM »
On Beluaterra, in the region of Midbote, There has been a monster spawn just about every day, kicking off with a spawn of about 2k+. I don't recall seeing any scrolls being cast there. Can you please check that spawn monsters is not bugged or looping...

Found it. A small optimization from a few weeks ago was missing a crucial (but very small) piece, resulting in the monster spawn rate not getting reset after a group spawned.

This has now been fixed, and the spawn rate in all regions that have spawned in the last 2 weeks reset.

So, that could be the reason that Caelum got blasted by 30KCS of monsters in the past week....
