This is something that I made from a few people's work to fit my own needs. Source files and info from Enforcer, Kadar, spider661, and anyone else I forgot.

updateDb();
basicly remove the // from pdateDB();
Then edit connection.php and put your db's info in it.

Very nice and work very well. Only one caveat though and that is the display information on "respawn time". I tested this on my test server and I have my test server Raidboss respawn set to 1 (I believe that is 12-24 hours). The Raidboss map will display a specific time and date when the next respawn will occur but it was not accurate when I was testing it. In one instance, the raidboss did not spawn until 8 hours later when the map said it would spawn 8 hours earlier in the day.
How do I adjust this to make it accurate or is it a spawn range that can't be controlled...ie (1 = 12-24 hr)?
You will have to adjust the calculation of the respawn time in "index.php" for your time zone. To do that, you would make the changes below to add 8 hours to the time shown. Every 3600 seconds is an hour, 3600 * 8 = 28800
Works fine, but only one dot is wrong.
Red one. That dot should be in Elven Ruins.
I've checked position of RB in data base and is correct.
Ride Boss name - Discarded Guardian (20 Lvl)
Any idea?
Yes I do actually. The main x and y coordinates need to be expanded to include the new areas. I'll fix that and update the download shortly. Good catch

Fantastic. But I observed that is a problem with that like for example. Is similar script for players online and some players dot is somewhere else. Player is in Catacomb of Apostate but dot shows north side of map. Mobs are on north side of map too.

I went into the config.php and modified it accordingly but the time is still incorrect. I believe it's one of two things:
1) The default time $respawntime = date('D M j G:ia T',($respawn / 1000 )); is coded for which time zone? Does it automatically adjust itself to the Time Zone specified by the OS? If it is not auto adjusting then I would like to know which default time zone is used when the code is not modified. At this point I am assuming it is using GMT formatting but this could be my problem to begin with.
2) Does the respawn time accept both negative and positive time addition? Say if the raidmap specified that a monster would spawn at 10:50am but it actually spawned at 6:50am. I would then need to specified in the config.php file that it needs to remove 4 hours from the calculation, correct?
Thanks for all your help in answering my questions.
That is correct, the default settings would show the server OS time zone and then you could add or subtract from that using the settings I have posted before.

Got it working perfectly a while ago after some more observation and time tweaking. Thanks!!
