@JagexAsh Interesting. What are the triggers called for area enter/leave & level ups?

@ZenKris21 We have "mapzone" triggers that act like area triggers, but are defined for 64x64 chunks of map tiles rather than a manually painted area. Also "zone" triggers that act like that for 8x8 chunks of map tiles.

@JagexAsh Do you know if there are any other triggers that run at the same time as level up, area enter, and area leave?

@JagexAsh Awhile ago you mentioned the existence of world_delay. Is there any other way to interact with this "queue of delayed scripts" (and is there an official name for this?), e.g. define scripts the way player queues would be defined, or is world_delay all there is?

@JagexAsh For npc_mode opplayer2, does the ai_opplayer2 script need to set the mode again like you would for players via p_opplayer(2), or are npc_modes persistent until some engine defined condition?

@JagexAsh What was the purpose of adding +16 levels with Trickster? Given the effect of the relic is that you never fail any actions, 16 levels wouldn't guarantee it. Also funny you mention the plank - I actually brought it as an example earlier today in Discord👀

@ZenKris21 Yes - allowing global overrides to skill rolls. Which is why it doesn't help if you select the wrong plank to cross in the Brimhaven Agility Arena, since that's a guaranteed fail rather than a skill roll, btw.

@JagexAsh Did OSRS engine receive some changes related to invisible boosts recently? Given the Trickster relic appears to be making use of it in the four skills that it is meant to boost, any idea what that is?

@JagexAsh Could you provide the stats of the awakened tentacles that hit you at Abyssal Sire? They cannot be monster examined, unfortunately.

@JagexAsh Have longqueues existed as long as weak/normal/strong or were they added afterwards?

@JagexAsh Regarding p_walk however, does that respect clipping/collision? If not, is there a version of p_walk that would? (e.g. not move if it is blocked by a loc)

@ZenKris21 p_teleport() - a command that "forcibly" moves the player and enables walk animations if the distance is short, so it's good for doors like that. p_telejump() is an alternative command that forcibly moves the player and never plays walk animations.

@JagexAsh When players "forcibly" move through doors at content level, is that done using p_walk or p_tele?

@JagexAsh Does p_exactmove() also delay the player for the duration of the exactmove, or is that handled manually in scripts?

@ZenKris21 It moves them on its own. Yes, the delays are in client cycles, so that they can be synchronised with animations like climbing over a stile.

@JagexAsh What are the arguments passed onto the exactmove command(assuming that's what it is called)?

@JagexAsh And what arguments does that take?

@ZenKris21 p_locmerge()

@JagexAsh What's the name of the command that seems to temporarily "merge" locs with players? Appears to be commonly used in Agility.

@JagexAsh Does it move the player to the end coordinate on its own, or do you have to teleport/move the player to the destination on-top of the p_exactmove() call manually? Mainly asking as the exactmove delays seem to be in client cycles, rather than server cycles.

@ZenKris21 It's p_exactmove(). It takes start+end coordinates, start+end delays, and a direction to face on arrival.

@JagexAsh When making new varps, how do you decide if they should require protected access or not?

@JagexAsh Slight confusion here; does it trigger the NPC who died or the one who dealt the killing blow to switch the hunt mode? Can the game even track damage dealt by other NPCs?

@ZenKris21 On an NPC's death, if it thinks it died to an NPC (which happens there), it'll try triggering that NPC to randomise its huntmode.

@JagexAsh What's responsible for switching the hunt modes for the monsters found in God Wars Dungeon? Would it be a NPC timer or some other mechanism?

@JagexAsh What would the npc_range(coord) command return if the NPC was on a different level compared to you(e.g. if you went up the stairs)?

@JagexAsh Oh, seems I misunderstood how the mechanic worked a little bit. What makes it so Splatters in Pest Control are able to walk through Brawlers, and other NPCs that normally block movement?

@ZenKris21 Ah, right... Pets have blockwalk=none, so NPCs (and players) can walk through them. But they can still be blocked by other NPCs.

@JagexAsh Is there a special property on pest control Brawlers that blocks walking and shooting projectiles through them?
