DB/AreaTrigger

Defines certain areas on the map that presumably tell the server to fire a certain event. IE in BWL, telling the goblins around vael to run away is a trigger defined here. There are also misc triggers out in the middle of space which have 0 size, which are most likely used by the server for certain things. One such use could be remembering settings per instance (ie dracnoid colors in on Nef)?.

Their main usage are for quest objectives, taverns(resting) and instance portal teleports.

Note for modders : When edited, this DBC requires to be ordered properly to work, your new row won't work if you add it at the end. This DBC requires to be ordered by map ID
