NPC's are not spawning

Pending 2.2.0

Hello,. I am having an issue where no NPC's are spawning in a custom map, Boston:New Land. I went into the Data and tried to change one of the custom monuments for enabled to true. After reloading the plugin, the data gets reset to false. After reloading, the console states everything loaded successfully, even the file that resets from false to true. After testing, it affects more than just the custom files, but also the ones that came with BetterNPC.

Thank You,

BetterNpc.json NpcSpawn.json Arctic.json Arid.json Jungle.json Temperate.json Tundra.json Boston_BilsFarm.json Boston_Boston.json Boston_Buttsville.json Boston_Folcom_Prison.json Boston_Frozen_Research_1.json Boston_Frozen_Research_2.json Boston_GraweyardOfShips.json Boston_HydroElectricalPowerStation.json Boston_QuarantineZone.json Boston_RoadSideMarket.json Boston_SpaceStation.json Boston_WalleyOfBridges.json

Hello, there are null presets in your files, most likely you have an error when trying to update files from BetterNpc 1.3.3 to 2.0.0+ via UpdaterBetterNpc.cs, or you installed BetterNpc version 2.1.8 or less on files with version 1.3.3 without using UpdaterBetterNpc.cs. If you perform a clean install, then this does not happen with standard files.
If you have a backup of files before the update, I advise you to go back to the old versions and update them according to the instructions in the latest version of the BetterNpc plugin, in the folder ONLY For Versions Below 2.0.0.
As for custom files, they will be updated along with all other BeterNpc files when using UpdaterBetterNpc.cs.

You can also download a new version of files for your custom map from KpucTaJI's google drive:

Thank you,

I can try to do another fresh install, but it was a fresh as i just purchased it a short while ago where the current version was the one when it was bought. I will mess around with it.

I have done a fresh install, and followed the guide exactly. I uploaded the billsfarm file as listed to the server, and when i reloaded the plugin to add those custom spawns, it reset the file, like how the boston file looks. It does it with each custom preset.

Its like it just factory resets the preset.

Here are the new Data and config files as well

Boston_BilsFarm.json Boston_Boston.json Data-Config.zip

The file Boston_BilsFarm.json looks like spawn point of BetterNpc version 1.3.3 and earlier, as I wrote to you above, I also provided you with a link with new files for custom maps, and I even checked this file from this link, the file format is new. And dont forgot to upload presets for NpcSpawn to your server from this link.
Where did you get Boston_BilsFarm.json when you last installed it?

I got those from the map folder itself. I did try to use both those new ones you posted and the ones from the map file. I messed around with some other things and got them to stay. The only other issue now is that they do not roam at all. They are static and i do not see an option to change that in any of the configs or data files. Is that something you can help with as well?

Sorry to be a pain in the ass, struggling with some other plugins too. Thank you for your time and information!

If you're against discord, then that's okay 😉
Did I understand correctly that you managed to solve the first problem, and now the problem is that the NPCs are not moving? You can try changing the type of navigation grid in the NpcSpawn preset files ( data/NpcSpawn/Preset/ via /preset command) that are used in your custom spawn point of BetterNpc.
