So I need to deserialize the dbc file, add an entry for my new area, then serialize it with my changes, and overwrite the existing dbc file?

Oh, I see. The DBC files are proprietary blizzard files so they're the most blizzlike?

Ohh, I missed the "as well on the client". I came across this when I was digging through the discord history on the areatrigger table. So, the client determines it's in the areatrigger before asking the server to verify. The areatrigger table is for serverside verification after the client calls in.

So, ```.debug areatrigger``` is clientside?

Using DBC files was a design decision on the emulators end from ages ago. It seems to be convenient to distribute DBC files to both server and client.
Azerothcore has decided to add DBC override tables, which are an optional and convenient way to distribute one set of DBCs (as in an unchanged client) but override things server-side.

so the serverside DBC files should not need to be altered with azerothcore

Regular inns usually have their own area. That allows usage of the areatable. If your desired building doesn't have its own area, you will need to work around that limitation. Maybe areatriggers are a way to achieve that. I wouldn't know.

Yeah, it's just a vacant building. The "isindoors" flag is enabled when I enter it but the map name doesn't change.
