Remove Scripts from loading list

[Chuu 18]

Hello herc community,

I'd like to know how I can efficiently remove NPCs from the loading list.

 

Reason:

For development reasons, I only need one path and a few NPCs to be loaded - so others are superfluous/not needed and take more time to (re-)load.

I discovered the scripts_removed.conf in the /npc folder. Following configuration has been tested:

//=========================================================================
//= Hercules global npc removed list
//=========================================================================
// All NPCs that you wish to remove from your loading list should be put in
// this file
//=========================================================================

// If instead of a path to an NPC is put "all" no file will be loaded
npc_removed_list: (
	//"all",
	//"path/to/npc",
	"npc/airports",
	"npc/battleground",
	"npc/cities",
	"npc/custom",
	//"npc/dev",	<-- ONLY THIS PATH SHOULD BE LOADED
	"npc/events",
	"npc/instances",
	"npc/jobs",
	"npc/kafras",
	"npc/mapflag",
	"npc/mechants",
	"npc/mobs",
	"npc/other",
	"npc/quests",
	"npc/re",
	"npc/warps",
	"npc/woe-fe",
	"npc/woe-se",
	
) // removed

 

But it did not work and all NPCs have been loaded. How can I achieve only load the "/dev" path?

 

Thank you in advance ~

In order to use script remove you need to specify the path of the npc file, another solution would be to disable the include for the other files in scripts_main.conf and add load for your files only.

Thank you, worked like a charm! <3
