A zone named with spaces or punctuation (e.g. "My Zone!") used to
produce a module directory path "mod_wowee_My Zone!/" and conf
keys like "Wowee.My Zone!.Enabled" which AzerothCore's config
parser rejects. The slug is now stripped to [A-Za-z0-9_-], with
spaces/slashes mapped to underscores. SQL VALUES still use the
raw display text via SQLExporter::escape.
The map_dbc, area_table_dbc, and game_tele INSERTs previously
embedded mapName/displayName/manifest.mapName as raw strings — a
zone called "King's Land" or anything containing a single quote
would emit malformed SQL that AzerothCore would reject. Promotes
the existing escapeSql helper to a public SQLExporter::escape and
uses it in all three INSERTs.
One-click generation of a complete AzerothCore/TrinityCore server module
from editor zone data. File > Generate Server Module creates:
- sql/01_map.sql: map_dbc + area_table_dbc registration
- sql/02_spawns.sql: creature_template + creature + waypoint_data + quests
- sql/03_teleport.sql: game_tele entry for .tele command
- sql/04_zone_flags.sql: sanctuary/PvP area flags
- conf/mod_wowee.conf.dist: worldserver.conf snippet with zone settings
- README.md: step-by-step server admin installation guide
- module.json: machine-readable module manifest
Server admins can import the SQL files, add the config snippet, and
restart their server to have the custom zone fully operational with
NPC spawns, patrol paths, quests, teleport commands, and zone flags.
