[RESOLVED] tmwserv NPC Interaction

Well, I've poked around a bit and I can't seem to get it working right.

I've been trying to add NPC's to my maps... and they show up, but when I try to interact with them, nothing happens. (and yes, I've been right-clicking on them).

I copied a sample NPC from one of the TMW maps to my map code but with no luck. My guess is that libtmw.lua isn't being loaded but this is just a guess. There are no clues in any of the log files.

Any thoughts on what I can look at to attempt to resolve this?

I have no clue what I did, but it's working now... go figure... :P

Just make sure you're near enough for the NPC to answer. Many times that made me think they were not working.

You know what, that's exactly what 'solved' my problem. I realized this when I ran the SVN version of TMW client with its original maps and couldn't interact with them until I got close enough.

Sounds like it's time to add one of those "You're not close enough" messages for dummies like me!

Although, the mouse pointer could change for interactive things like that... like in World of Warcraft. Just a thought... :)
