This collection offers scripts and a map that allow you
|
|
to send mail (including items) to your fellow players and place public
|
|
messageboards in the game. There is also a banking system.
|
|
It also allows for NPCs who can report on player login activity (seen.py).
|
|
(note the bank script has been moved to banksay.py)
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
- Crossfire (October 19th, 2005 CVS code or later, requires v2.0 plugin interface)
|
|
- Python (2.0 or higher)
|
|
- Python Crossfire plugin (latest)
|
|
|
|
Installation:
|
|
Should work by default if python plugin is running
|
|
|
|
It is possible to place multiple messageboards in your
|
|
game, copy the example in the map from /ImperialPost/IPO and
|
|
change 'event_say_options GENERALBOARD' and give it an
|
|
unique name.
|
|
|
|
Hooking up other NPCs to the seen script is pretty simple.
|
|
|
|
There are currently two post offices and two banking outlets, one each
|
|
in Navar and Scorn. If you add more please follow these guidelines:
|
|
|
|
*******Imperial Post**************
|
|
The mailboxes could be put in different places, there should be a few around out there.
|
|
|
|
|
|
*******Imperial Banking**************
|
|
These are Imperial bank (actually Scuds Bank) if you want to
|
|
add some banks to non-imperial cities (?) maybe consider making different
|
|
scripts to and use a different currency and a new account database
|
|
so players can have other bank account (bankdatabase="<your bank>Bank_DB")
|
|
changing the bank notes is harder since it involves making a new arch, but
|
|
you should be able to do so with little problems.
|
|
|
|
But remember less is more....
|
|
|
|
Right now the only place to get imperial script is the bank. I think it is better
|
|
to keep it this way and not use imperial script as treasure or make converters.
|
|
Maybe on a rare occasion have imperials as a quest reward, but remember all Python
|
|
stuff should be optional. Do however consider using imperials for python gadgetry
|
|
(like slot machines or other such optional gizmos), but only in the Imperial lands.
|
|
|
|
Make sure you have updated the python_remove.py script to remove accounts when players quit
|
|
if you have a custom one.
