creature_formations

The `creature_formations` table

This table allows to group mobs. Members of group will follow others, and attack their targets.

Structure

Field	Type	Attributes	Key	Null	Default
leaderGUID	INT	UNSIGNED		NO	NULL
memberGUID	INT	UNSIGNED	PRI	NO	NULL
dist	FLOAT	UNSIGNED		NO	NULL
angle	FLOAT	UNSIGNED		NO	NULL
groupAI	INT	UNSIGNED		NO	NULL
point_1	INT	UNSIGNED		NO	0
point_2	INT	UNSIGNED		NO	0

leaderGUID

GUID of group leader

memberGUID

GUID of group member. NOTE: Is required to have an entry with leaderGUID and memberGUID with the leaderGUID in order to make the group work. Example:

Leader = 1
Members = 2 and 3

leaderGUID	memberGUID
1	1
1	2
1	3

dist

Maximum distance between group leader and member

Value must be >=0. If the value does not meet the condition the SQL will fail on creature_formations_chk_1.

angle

Angle between leader and member Note: Only degrees are used! Values should be between 0 and 360

Value must be >=0. If the value does not meet the condition the SQL will fail on creature_formations_chk_1.

groupAI

Sets group member behaviors, values are:

Value	Flag	Name	Comment
0			No one assists no one and member doesn't follow the leader
1	0x001	GROUP_AI_FLAG_MEMBER_ASSIST_LEADER	The member aggroes if the leader aggroes
2	0x002	GROUP_AI_FLAG_LEADER_ASSIST_MEMBER	The leader aggroes if the member aggroes
3			Everyone assists everyone and member doesn't follow the leader
4	0x004	GROUP_AI_FLAG_EVADE_TOGETHER	Everyone evades if any member evades (enters evade mode)
8	0x008	GROUP_AI_FLAG_RESPAWN_ON_EVADE	Everyone respawns if members evade (enters evade mode)
16	0x010	GROUP_AI_FLAG_DONT_RESPAWN_LEADER_ON_EVADE	Used with flag 0x008 to prevent leader from respawning
24			Everyone but leader respawns if members evade
512	0x200	GROUP_AI_FLAG_FOLLOW_LEADER	Noone assists noone and member follow the leader
515			Everyone assists everyone and member follow the leader

point_1

point_2

These values are used to set leaderGUID pre ending path points for memberGUID's where the path is a straight return path and memberGUID's should not crossover to other side of leaderGUID on direction change.

If your leader has a path like the one below where he moves to point 5 then back to 1 you would set point_1 = 4 and point_2 = 8 on the memberGUID. If the memberGUID is at angle 90 up to point 5 it will switch to angle 270 for the return trip. This is only needed to keep creatures on the correct side. these values can be left at 0 for creatures following directly behind leaderGUID or any creatures in a circular path.
