is there a way to set certain monster group to show up in a certain area without making multiple maps (like in the world map?)
In XP? Nope. Maybe scripts can do it.
might be able to do it with events, like collision change monster groupings, but you would have to maker A LOT
ok thanks for the info... i guess, i just have to make it in pieces, that way i can change the groupings when i want to... anyway, thanks again!
