This is the name of the object, displayed to the player. + + + This is the plural name of the object. A plural name must be set for + all items that can be picked up and collected by the player. + + + This is the object's title. Once an object is identified the title is + attached to the name. Typical titles are "of Mostrai", "of xray vision" etc. + + + The image-name defines what image is displayed for this object in-game. + + + This value determines the number of objects in one stack (for example: + 100 gold coins => "number = 100"). You should set this at least to one, for + any pickable object - otherwise it won't be mergeable into a stack. + + + This value defines the object's weight in grams (1000g is 1kg). Objects with + zero weight are not pickable for players. Still, set the "non-pickable"-flag + for explicitly non-pickable objects (hey, this is open source.. you + never know ;) ). + + + Adds a certain value to the object: It will be worth that many times the + default value from it's archetype (E.g. "value = 3" means three times + worth the default value). Value for buying/selling will be + further modified by various factors. Hence, testing values in-game is + usually inevitable. + + + If <glow radius> is set to a value greater zero, the object + appears lit up on dark maps. <glow radius> can be a value + between 0 and 4, the higher, the more light does the object emit. + + + If <smooth level> is set to a value greater zero, the object will be + drawn partially over adjacent squares having a lower <smooth level> + value. The value must be between 0 and 255 (inclusive); 0 means "never + overlap adjacent squares". + + + The elevation (height above sea level) of this square. It is used for + weather calculations and should be in the range -32000..32000. The + elevation of a tile must be set in the bottom-most game object; elevation + values for non-bottom-most game objects are ignored by the Crossfire + server. + + + This bitmask-value informs the player of which material(s) the + object consists. Material does also affect how likely the object + can be destroyed by hazardous spell-effects. + + + If set, the object cannot be picked up (Neither by players nor monsters). + + + Generally makes the object invisible. Depending on the object-type, + some can be made visible by the show_invisible spell. If in doubt, test it. + Putting an invisible object under the floor always prevents it from being + shown. + + + If an item is set to block view, players (and monsters) cannot + see beyond it unless they cross it or manage to stand on top. + + + If an item is identified, the player has full knowledge about it. + + + An <unpaid> item cannot be used unless a player carried it over + a shop mat, paying the demanded price. Setting this flag makes sense + only for pickable items inside shops. + + + A <changing> object converts to <food> <other_arch> + objects; when it's animation is done. For non-living objects <food> + is checked: if it is zero, the change happens; otherwise <food> is + decreased by one. I suggest you don't mess with this value - leave the + default in place. + + + A <splitting> object converts to <food> <other_arch> + objects; when it is hit physically. For non-living objects <food> is + checked: if it is zero, the change happens; otherwise <food> is + decreased by one. I suggest you don't mess with this value - leave the + default in place. + + + + + + + + + + + If set, the object cannot be passed by players nor monsters. + + + Curses can have various effects: On equipment and food, + they generally harm the player in some way. + + + A damned item/floor on the ground makes it impossible for players + to use prayers on that spot. It also prevents players from saving. + Damnation on equipment works similar to a curse. + + + Unique items exist only one time on a server. If the item + is taken, lost or destroyed - it's gone for good. + + + A godgiven item vanishes as soon as the player + drops it to the ground. + + + This text may describe the object. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + If set, the object cannot be passed by players nor monsters. + + + This string specifies the item that must be put on the altar to + activate it.

  • Place only monsters of slightly varying (increasing) strength. + It's no fun to play for two hours just to find out the last + monster is unbeatable. Similar, it's not exciting to fight orcs + after passing a room of dragons.
    + This rule applies only for linear maps (one room after the other), + with treasure at the end. You can sprinkle the treasure around, + or make non-linear maps - That is often more entertaining. +
  • Places with high level monsters must not be easy to reach. + Balrogs, Dragonmen and the likes should be at the end of a quest, + not at the beginning. +
  • Don't stick monsters together that tend to kill each other. + Fire- and cold dragons in one room for example is a bad idea. + By weakening and killing each other they are easy prey for players, + not worth the experience they hold. +
  • Create your own monsters, especially for "boss"-type monsters. + Having stage-bosses guarding treasure is a lot of fun when done right. + Avoid to create monsters with completely non-intuitive abilities: + Don't give ice-spells to fire dragons or vice versa.

  • Last but not least: Always keep an eye on the experience your monsters + hold. Design your maps in a way that high experience + is always well-defended. Don't make large rooms full with only one kind + of monster. Keep in mind the different abilities/techniques players + can use. + + I know it's impossible to make the perfectly balanced map.

The experience will flow into + the skill-category the player used for the kill. + + If you create special monsters of tweaked strength/abilities, + always make sure that the <experience> is set to a + reasonable value. Compare with existing arches to get a feeling + what reasonable means. Keep in mind that spellcasting monsters + are a lot harder to kill than non-spellcasters! + + + The <speed> determines how fast a monster will both move + and fight. High <speed> makes a monster considerably stronger. + + + This only takes effect if <multiply> is enabled. The monster will + create a <breed monster> every once in a while. <breed monster> + can be set to any valid arch-name of a monster. + + + Monsters with <generator> enabled will create a <breed monster> + every once in a while.

Attacktypes are: physical, magical, fire, cold.. etc. + Strong monsters often have more than just physical attacktype. + + When a monster with multiple attacktypes hits an opponent, it will do + as much damage as the "best" of it's attacktypes does. So, the more + attacktypes, the more dangerous. Attacktypes "magic" and "chaos" are + somehow exceptions. + + + Among other parameters, <damage> affects how much melee damage + a monster inflicts. <damage> is used as base value for damage per + hit. <level>, <speed>, <weapon class> and resistances also + take effect on the melee damage of a monster. + + + Monsters of high <weapon class> are more likely to really hit + their opponent. <weapon class> can be considered the "counterpiece" + to <armor class>. + + + The <health points> of a monster define how long it takes to + kill it. With every successful hit from an opponent, <health points> + get drained - The monster dies by zero <health points>. + + + <max health> is the maximum amount of <health points> this + monster can have. + + + If set to non-zero, the monster cannot be hurt by attacking it. + + + Monsters of low <armor class> are less likely to get hit from + their opponent. <armor class> can be considered the "counterpiece" + to <weapon class>. + Values typically range between +20 (very bad) to -20 (quite good). + + + Monsters regenerate this many health points each 4 ticks. Hence, the + healing rate is independent of <speed>. + + + A monster with this flag has the ability to <reflect missiles>, + all kinds of projectiles (e.g. arrows, bolts, boulders) will + bounce off. + + + Monsters with <hitback> enabled hurt the attacker in proportion + to the amount of damage the *attacker* inflicted. This damage + is additional to the regular melee damage of the monster. + As far as I know, hitback uses acid attacktype, and it only takes + effect if the monster actually has acid attacktype at it's disposal. + Acid spheres for example use this feature. + + + Monsters with <one hit only> disappear after one successful hit + to a player. + +
    + +
    + + If <can cast spell> is disabled, the monster cannot cast any spell. + Only wands/rods/etc can be used, given the appropriate abilities. + + + A monster with this flag has the ability to <reflect spells>, + all kinds of spell-bullets and -beams will bounce off. + + Generally this flag should not be set because it puts + wizard-type players at an unfair disadvantage. + + + Like players, monsters need <spellpoints> to do magic. Monsters use + them for both wizard- and prayer-spells. However, this value defines + only the amount of *initial* spellpoints the monster starts with. + When creating a spellcasting monster, remember that <max spellpoints> + and <spellpoint regen.> are more important than just initial + <spellpoints>. + + + <max spellpoints> is the maximum number of spellpoints a monster + can hold. Setting this to high values has little effect unless + the monster has a decent <spellpoint regen.>, or the spell + "regenerate mana" at it's disposal. + + Warning: Do not create spellcasting and breeding monsters since this + field is also used as <multiply speed>. + + + Monsters regenerate this many spellpoints each 16 ticks. Hence, the + spellpoint regeneration rate is independent of <speed>. + + To make a real tough spellcasting monster, the rate of spellpoint + regeneration is most important. If your monster is still not casting + fast enough, give it the spell-ability of "regenerate mana". + That, paired with high <max spellpoints>, is the ultimate thing. + + + Click on the <attuned paths> button to select spellpaths. + The creature will get attuned to the specified spellpaths. + + + Click on the <repelled paths> button to select spellpaths. + The creature will get repelled to the specified spellpaths. + + + Click on the <denied paths> button to select spellpaths. + The creature won't be able to cast spells of the specified paths. + +
    + +
    + + The <detect hidden> value gives monsters the ability to find + hidden/invisible creatures. Higher values make for better + detection-skills. Enabling <see invisible> makes this value + obsolete. + + + A monster with the ability to <see invisible> cannot be fooled + with by invisible or hiding players. This flag is a must-have + for high-level monsters. When a monster is unable to detect + invisible players, it can be killed without fighting back. + + + A monster with the ability to <see in darkness> cannot be fooled + by spells of darkness or dark maps. This flag is a "should-have" + for high-level monsters. When a monster is unable to see in + darkness, players can cast darkness and sneak around it safely. + + + Monster is able to wield weapon type objects. + + + Monster is able to use missile-weapon type objects. + + + Monster is able to wear protective equipment like breastplate + armor, helmets etc. + + + Monster is able to wear shields. + + + Monster is able to wear rings. + + + Monster is able to use wands, staves, and rods. + + + Monster is able to read scrolls. + + + Monster is able to use skills from it's inventory. + For example, you can put a throwing skill object and some + boulders into the monster's object and set <can use skills>. + +
    + +
    + + When <monster behavior> is enabled, this object will behave + like a monster: It can move and attack enemies (which are + typically players). + This flag should be set for all monsters as-such. + Monsters which don't move, like guards, should also have + <monster behavior>, but in combination with <stand still>. + It should *not* be set for things like immobile generators. + + + <unaggressive> monsters do not attack players unless attacked first. + + + <friendly> monsters help the player, attacking any + non-friendly monsters in range. + + + Monsters which <stand still> won't move to leave their position. + When aggressive, they will attack all enemies who get close to + them. This behavior is commonly known from castle guards. + + In older versions of Crossfire it was possible to eventually + push a <stand still>-monster out of position by force. + I believe this is no longer possible. Nevertheless, you should + still be cautious when lining up <stand still>-monster in order + to "defend" something: Such monsters are rather easy to kill. + It's good for low level maps, but not much more. + + + Being <asleep>, a monster won't move unless a player enters the + <sensing range> of the monster. Usually the sensing range is + larger than the players line of sight. Due to that, in most cases + the player won't ever notice weither a monster was asleep or not. + + + This entry defines which kinds of environment actions the + creature is able to perform. + + + Click on the <pick up> button and select which types of objects + the creature should try to pick up. + + Note also that if <can use armor>, <can use weapon>, <can use ring>... + etc are set, then the creature will pick up the matching items even + if this is not set here. + + + <sensing range> determines how close a player needs to be before + the creature wakes up. This is done as a square, for reasons of speed. + Thus, if the <sensing range> is 11, any player that moves within the + 11x11 square of the monster will wake the monster up. If the player + has stealth, the size of this square is reduced in half plus 1. + + + + + This is a percentage value in the range 0-100. + When the monster's health points drop below this percentage + (relative to max health), it attempts to run away from the + attacker. + +
    + +
    + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
    + + This text field contains the keyword-matching-syntax. The text should + have the following format: "@match <keyword1>|<keyword2>|... ". + Any number of keywords from one to infinite is allowed. Make sure + they are separated by a '|'. + + Examples: "@match yes", "@match gold|treasure". The monster or NPC will + respond when the player speaks any of the given keywords within a + two-square radius. IMPORTANT: Upper/lower case does not make a difference! + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
    + + The object vanishes after this number of draining attacks. + +
    +     + + + + + + + + +
    + To turn an NPC into a pet, put a charm_floor under it and connect + it directly to a magic_ear. Then the player speaks a keyword like + "help me" - and the NPC joins him as pet. +

    + (Of course you must always give clear hints about keywords! + And there is no reason why you couldn't use a button/lever/pedestal + etc. instead of a magic_ear.) ]]> +     + + + + <mood> is used to determine what will happen to the + monster when affected by the mood floor: +
      +
    • <mood> 'furious': Makes all monsters aggressive + +
    • <mood> 'angry': As above but pets are unaffected + +
    • <mood> 'calm': Makes all monsters unaggressive + +
    • <mood> 'sleep': Puts all monsters to sleep + +
    • <mood> 'charm': Turns monster into a pet of person + who triggers the square.
      This setting is not + enabled for continuous operation, you need to + insert a <connection> value! +
    + ]]> +     + + This should only be set in combination with <mood number> 4. + Normally, monsters are affected by the mood floor as soon as they + step on it. But charming (monster -> pet) is too powerful, + so it needs to be activated. + + Typically it is connected to an altar, for buying a "hireling". + But a powerful pet could as well be the reward for solving a + quest. Or even better: It could be *part* of a quest! + + + If enabled, it is impossible for players to use (wizard-) + spells on that spot. + + + If enabled, it is impossible for players to use prayers + on that spot. It also prevents players from saving. + +     + + + + + + +
    + Multi-square monsters can be moved as well, given + enough space. Movers are usually invisible. ]]> +     +
    + Btw, it does not make a difference putting movers above or + below the floor. Moreover, movers that are set to be invisible + cannot be discovered with the show_invisible spell. +

    + Note that Movers and Directors are separate objects, even though + they look and act similar. Directors only do spells/missiles, + while movers only do living creatures (depending on how it + is set: monsters and players). ]]> +     + + If forced movement is enabled, the mover "freezes" anyone it + moves (so they are forced to move along a chain). + For players there is no way to escape this forced movement, + except being pushed by a second player. + + + The player will be "frozen" for that many moves. + If <freeze duration> is zero, with <forced movement> + enabled, then <freeze duration> gets assigned the + "default value" 2 automatically. + + + The movement speed value determines how fast a chain of + these movers will push a player along (default is -0.2). + + + The mover will push creatures in the specified <direction>. + A mover with direction set to <none> will spin clockwise, + thus pushing creatures in unpredictable directions. + + + If enabled, the mover gets "used up" after a certain number of moves + (specified by <number of uses>). If disabled, the mover works infinitely. + + + This value has only a meaning if <gets used up> is set: + <number of uses> is the number of times minus one, that it + will move a creature before disappearing. (It will move + someone <number of uses>+1 times, then vanish). + +
    + + If <move players> is enabled, both players and monsters will be + moved. In the arches' default it is disabled - thus ONLY monsters + get moved. Remember that "monsters" includes NPCs! + + This feature provides you with the possibility to make NPCs + literally "come to life". Example: The player is talking with an + NPC, speaking a certain keyword. This triggers a magic_ear and + activates creators, creating (per default: monster-only) movers + under the NPC's feet. The NPC starts "walking" on a predefined + route! Note that it's useful to set this NPC immune to everything, + preventing the player to push the NPC off his trace. + + + Determines which movement types this mover affects. This should always + include "walk". + + + Move creatures using these movement types.. + +
    +     + + + + + + + + + + + + + the <match race> defines the object we're looking for. If <match race> + matches the monster's or the player's race, we have a match. + Yes, pedestals can detect a player's race! E.g. you could create a + place where only fireborns can enter, by setting "slaying unnatural". + + If it is set to "player", any player stepping on the pedestal + is a match. Very useful if you want to open a gate for players + but not for monsters. + + + When the pedestal is triggered, all objects with the same + connection value get activated. + + + + + + + + + + + + Optionally, pits can get closed and opened, similar to gates.

    + Monsters and items are affected by pits just as well as players. + Even multi-part monsters can fall through them, given enough space. ]]> +     + + + + + When a <connection> value is set, the pit can be opened/closed + by activating the connection. + + + The pit will transport creatures (and items) randomly into a two-square + radius of the destination coordinates. + If the destination square becomes blocked, the pit will act like + being filled up and not work anymore! + + + The pit will transport creatures (and items) randomly into a two-square + radius of the destination coordinates. + If the destination square becomes blocked, the pit will act like + being filled up and not work anymore! + + + The <position state> defines the position of the gate: + Zero means completely open/down, the "number of animation-steps" (usually + about 6 or 7) means completely closed/up state. I suggest you don't + mess with this value - Leave the default in place. + + + Make creatures using these movement types fall into the pit. + Movement types other than walking is not the behavior expected from a + pit, and it should only be used for map-mechanisms (e.g. for + transporting flying monsters). + An interesting side-effect: If this flag is enabled, spell + effects like fire/snow also make their way through the pit. + +     + + + + + + + If this is set to a : separated (with leading and trailing :) list of races, + only players of this race will be able to apply the item. + + + + + + + + + + + If the potion contains a spell, the spell is cast at this level. + For other potions it should be set at least to 1. + + + When a player drinks this potion, the selected spell + will be casted (once).

    + + This text describes the weapons' "story".

Look into /crossfire/share/crossfire/treasures + for details about existing treasurelists. + + + The <quality level> will be used for the quality of the generated + goods. If zero/unset, <quality level> 5 is used. Usually this value + doesn't need to be set, unless you want extraordinarily good/bad + quality. If you want to make a shop with very high quality, maybe + charge an entrance fee, or make the shop hard-to-come-by. + Note that <quality level> mainly affects chance of magic bonus + and appearance of artifact-items. + + + If enabled, it is impossible for players to use prayers + on that spot. It also prevents players from saving. + (Remember that <no magic> is always set for shop floors.) + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + If set, the player can enter/leave the shop by using these + movement types. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + When a connection value is set, the message will be printed whenever + the connection is triggered. This should be used in combination with + <invisible> enabled and <activate by walking/flying> disabled. + If activating your magic_mouth this way, the message will not only be + printed to one player, but all players on the current map. + + + If set, the player gets the message when using these movement types on top + of the object. + "invisible 1" should be set in this case. This is the typical configuration + for a "magic_mouth": The player walks through a dungeon and suddenly he + gets a message. Use this to create some roleplay atmosphere, and to inform + the player about possible dangers or secrets. + + + If a counter-value is set (greater zero), the sign/magic_mouth can be applied + (printing the message) only that many times. For signs this really shouldn't + be used, while for magic_mouths it is extremely helpful. + Monsters walking over the magic_mouth do not decrease the counter. + + Often, you might want to have a message displayed only one time. For example: + The player enters your map and you put a magic_mouth to tell him about the + monsters and how dangerous they look and all. Later, when all the monsters + are killed and the player leaves the map, displaying the same message a + second time would be silly. <counter> 1 does a perfect job in such cases. + Otherwise set <counter> zero/unset for infinite use (that is the default). + + + This text will be displayed to the player. + + + + + + + + + + + First, the predefined skill archetypes (in the 'skills' directory) + can be seen as the global skill definitions. A skill which doesn't + exists as an archetype cannot be learned or used by players. When you + want to use skills in your maps, you may need to look up the <skill name>s + of defined skill archetypes, because those strings are used as a reference in + many skill-related objects. +

    + Secondly, in order to enable monsters to use skills, you will need to + copy default skill archetypes into the monsters' inventories. + You can even customize the skills by changing stats. It is not + recommended however, to use skills in your maps which are totally + unrelated to any predefined skill archetype.

    ]]> +     + + + + The <skill name> is used for matchings. When a usable + object has an identical <skill name>, players + (or monsters) will need this skill to apply/use the object. + + + This is the ratio of experience the players total should increase by + when this skill is used. If this is zero, then experience only goes to + to the skill. Values higher than 1 are allowed. Note that experience + rewarded to the players total is in addition to that given to the + skill. Eg, if player should get 500 exp for using a skill, and + expmul is 1, the player will get 500 added to that skill as well as + 500 to their total. + + + The <skill type> defines the base functionality of the skill. + Skill types are hard-coded in the Crossfire server. It isn't hard to + create new skill types, but it requires a bit of server-coding. + + + + + + + <Permanent experience> is the experience the player gained + permanently. Even if a player dies multiple times or gets drained, his + <experience> will not fall below <permanent experience>. + + + The <is native skill> flag has an effect only when this + skill object is placed in the inventory of a monster (or player). + If it is set, the monster or player knows the skill natively, which + means he does not need a skill tool to use it. + + + Determines which movement types this skill grants. + +     + + + + + + + + + + The <skill name> matches the skill object that can + be learned from this scroll. + + + If this is set to a : separated (with leading and trailing :) list of races, + only players of this race will be able to apply the item. + + + + + + + + +
    + This object-type can also be used for "passport"-like items: + When walking onto an inventory checker, a gate for example might + get opened. The "passport" will stay in the player's inventory. ]]> +     +
    + Of course you can be creative with names and faces of + key-objects. A "mysterious crystal" or a "big dragon claw" + (with appropriate faces) appear more interesting than just + a "strange key", or "passport". ]]> +     + + This string must be identical with the <key string> in the + locked door, then it can be unlocked. It can also be used + to trigger inventory checkers. + + + For Special Keys, material should always be unset or set + to Adamantite. This prevents the key from getting + burned or otherwise destroyed. + + + Unique items exist only one time on a server. If the item + is taken, lost or destroyed - it's gone for good. + + This can be used if you want to sell apartments on your + map: Simply sell a unique passport/key, and place + an inventory checker at the entrance of your apartment. + + + A godgiven item vanishes as soon as the player + drops it to the ground. + + + This will add a description to the object. The player can read + this text by clicking on the item in his inventory. Use this + message to describe what the key/passport is good for. A player + might have 50 different keys on his key-ring. Don't expect + players to recall their purpose just by their names. + +     + + + + + + + + Monsters can use spells which are put in their inventory (provided + that certain "enabling" settings are correct). The monster's + <treasurelist> can also be used to provide it with spells. ]]> + + + + + + + The <skill name> matches the skill which is needed + to cast this spell. This should be one out of "sorcery", + "pyromancy", "evocation", "summoning" or "praying". + If you want to fiddle with these, please take care not + to upset the concept and balance of the various skills. + + + The <spell type> defines the basic type of spell. + Some of these types are of a more generic nature than others. + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
    + You can create widely customized spells only by adjusting the + spell object in the spellbooks inventory. Refer to the description + of spell objects for detailed information how to customize spells.
    + If you want to have a random spellbook instead, choose a <treasurelist> + with a compilation of spells that the book may contain. ]]> +     +
    + Note that there is no fundamental difference between the spellbooks + of varying schools (pyromancy, sorcery, evocation, summoning, and + even praying). The difference lies only in the spells they contain. + It is up to you, the map maker, to pick the right type of book + for your spells. ]]> +     + + + There are two ways to put spells into a spellbook: + 1. Put a spell object in the books inventory. In this case, + treasurelist must be set to <none>. + 2.

    +     + + + + + + + + + This number is a bitmask, specifying the weapon's attacktypes. + Attacktypes are: physical, magical, fire, cold.. etc. Most artifact weapons + have no more than one or two attacktypes.
