quest::creategroundobject() No charges

That's partially my fault I'm sure. The sub EVENT obviously should be used with player.pl, but I put it under the normal section of the wiki. I'll fix that now as well.

Even using player.pl, I still can't get EVENT_PICK_UP to work. Here is my example player.pl file that I am using in overthere:

Code:

sub EVENT_PICK_UP {

  if ($picked_up_id == 4607) {
  quest::spawn2(2700766, 0, 0, 1925.4, 3147.5, -50, 192); 
  }

}

I pick up the item 4607 (a crate) and it is supposed to spawn a Cockatrice at the same location. But, I get nothing at all no matter how I write it.

I also confirmed that ground spawn still always have 0 charges on them if they are set to have a certain amount. They work properly if #summoned, but not if picked up from being a ground spawn.

NOTE: - This is still a problem: I confirmed that ground spawn still always have 0 charges on them if they are set to have a certain amount. They work properly if #summoned, but not if picked up from being a ground spawn.

Nevermind on the player pick up issue though lol. I figured out the problem. Apparently, the sub is called:

Code:

sub EVENT_PLAYER_PICKUP

NOT:

Code:

sub EVENT_PICK_UP

I edited the Wiki to reflect this correction. Just took a little searching through the source to figure out the root cause lol. I am not sure where people got "EVENT_PICK_UP" from though.
