Editor's orientation is measured from +renderX (which maps to west in WoW
canonical), but AzerothCore creature.orientation is the WoW yaw measured
from +X (north). Without conversion an editor 0deg NPC ended up facing
west in-game, off by 90deg even after the radians fix. Now applies
`wowYaw = π/2 - editorYaw` and normalizes to [0, 2π).
Editor stores positions in render coords (renderX=wowY=west, renderY=wowX
=north, renderZ=wowZ=up) but AzerothCore creature.position_x/y are in
WoW canonical space (X=north-south, Y=west-east). Without the swap every
exported creature appeared on the wrong end of the map. Same swap now
applied to creature spawns AND waypoint_data path points.
quest_template now writes up to 4 KillCreature objectives into the
RequiredNpcOrGo/RequiredNpcOrGoCount slots and up to 6 CollectItem
objectives into the RequiredItemId/RequiredItemCount slots. The numeric
target ID is parsed from the objective's targetName field — empty/non-
numeric targets emit 0 (objective hooked up but unwired).
quest_template alone tells the server about the quest but not who hands
it out. Without creature_queststarter/questender entries, players can't
acquire or turn in the quest. Now writes both tables when the quest has
questGiverNpcId / turnInNpcId set.
The editor's orientation field is stored in degrees (matches the UI slider
and the M2 renderer's glm::radians() call), but AzerothCore's creature.
orientation column expects radians. Without conversion every exported NPC
faces the wrong direction in-game (off by 57x).
Private server integration: export creature spawns, patrol waypoints,
and quest definitions as ready-to-import SQL for AzerothCore/TrinityCore.
- creature_template: name, level, health, mana, damage, armor, faction,
npcflag (questgiver/vendor/flightmaster/innkeeper), displayId, scale
- creature: spawn position, orientation, respawn time, wander distance,
movement type (stationary/wander/patrol)
- creature_addon + waypoint_data: patrol path waypoints with delays
- quest_template: title, description, completion text, level, XP, money
- All use ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE for safe re-imports
- Auto-exported as spawns.sql alongside other assets on zone save
- File > Export Server SQL menu item for standalone export
- Map ID from zone metadata panel used in spawn table
