Swamp of No Hope - Captain Nedar/Mystic Dovan spawn broken
 
Description: Captain Nedar is supposed to despawn at night and Mystic Dovan is supposed to spawn in his place, and they switch in the morning. Currently it's just Captain Nedar that is up.

Relevant NPCs: Captain Nedar, Mystic Dovan

Relevant LOCs: (2645, 3030, 44) is where Captain Nedar is, and where Mystic Dovan should spawn.

Steps to reproduce bug:
  1. Head to Swamp of No Hope
  2. Wait a full game day, far away from Captain Nedar just to make sure there's no radius detection.
  3. Watch Captain Nedar never despawn

Expected behavior:
He should despawn at 7 or 8pm game time and Mystic Dovan should spawn at 8-10pm game time.

Evidence/Research:

These spawns are made the same way as the rest of the day/night mechanics. So.. it IS actually set up to work.

Either A:, it will work fine when the server launches and the time is correct.

or B:, it will be broken with the rest of the time of day npcs.

We'll have a solid time of day/night system set up at some point, which will resolve all of these time issues :P

Ah ok, thank you for the response.

It should be noted, this has broken Shaman Skull Quest 4 (Mystic Dovan is the NPC you receive the C.O.R.N chest from and turn it back into when filled with Tiny Glowing Skulls). Are GM's willing to assist in spawning Dovan (who should be spawning daily, but per Nilbog's note, if he is not up when the server resets, he won't be up)?

Fixed, pending update.

Captain/Mystic should spawn properly.
