📑MonsterAIGroup

Scripted spawning of "intelligent" monster squads—similar to SetBase\, but each monster is assigned an AI profile directly from MonsterAIUnit.txt, and members of the same group recognize each other (they can heal allies, follow a leader, etc.). Used by events such as the Dark Elf invasion.

Column	Accepted Values	Description
Number	Number, one per group	Identifies the squad. All monsters with the same Number recognize each other as members of the same group.
Guid	Number, unique within the group	Identifies this monster within the group.
Monster	Monster class number	The entity that spawns.
Rank	0 or *	0 = this monster is the group leader. * = regular member.
StartAI	Number corresponding to an Index in MonsterAIUnit.txt	Initial AI profile assigned to this monster.
AI1 / AI2 / AI3	Number corresponding to an Index in MonsterAIUnit.txt	Alternate AI profiles that this monster may switch to later (triggered by a "switch AI profile" action in MonsterAIElement.txt).
CreateType	Number	Method used to create/spawn the monster.
Map	Map number	Map where the monster spawns.
X / Y	Coordinates	Spawn location.
Dir	Number from 0 to 7, or *	Initial facing direction. * = random direction.
RegenType	Number	Whether and how this monster respawns after death.

Notes

• Unlike SetBase\, the Map column is actually used here—there is no "filename determines the map" rule.

• AI1/AI2/AI3 are not used automatically in sequence—they only become active if a MonsterAIElement of type "switch AI profile" explicitly references them.
