While travelling between the areas east of Nashkel with my 2-3 level party, I've got ambushed by 'nothing'. No one showed up. I didn't have neither BG Spawn nor BGT Spawn mods installed - just BGT 1.23.1.

 

Which data files control random encounters ?

I seem to remember such a bug from years past, but I never reported it myself and it seems it was never properly investigated.

I would remember, that the last time this happened to me(haven't played BGT-weidu for a long time), the monsters showed up after a while. Wolves or something.

areas east of Nashkel

Could you be more specific, please? It would definitely help to know between which areas and what time of the day. Maybe there's a gap hour we need to find in one of the encounter scripts:

• AR4700     Random Encounter Area: Plains
• AR4701     Random Encounter Area: Plains
• AR4800     Random Encounter Area: Canyon
• AR4801     Random Encounter Area: Canyon
• AR4900     Random Encounter Area: Cliff
• AR4901     Random Encounter Area: Cliff
• AR5100     Random Encounter Area: Grassland
• AR5101     Random Encounter Area: Grassland
• AR5300     Random Encounter Area: Forest
• AR5301     Random Encounter Area: Forest
• AR5400     Random Encounter Area: Road

I checked those areas and found two BGT scripts with a one hour gap.

 

AR4901.BAF:

 

TimeGT(2) 
TimeLT(4)

 

should be:

 

TimeGT(2) 
TimeLT(5)

 

and AR5100.BAF:

 

TimeGT(4) 
TimeLT(DAWN_START)

 

should be:

 

 TimeGT(4)
 TimeLT(DAWN_END)

Thanks, Salk! Done. And thank you, Azdul, for reporting that

My pleasure. Keep up the great work!
