Notes: A call to GetMapPins should be in the OnClientEnter script, immediately preceded by the definition of sPCPlayerName. As such: //Load PC Mappins SetLocalString(oPC, "sPCPlayerName", GetPCPlayerName(oPC)); GetMapPins(oPC); A call to ExportMapPins should be in the OnClientLeave. Curre...

Greyhawk should be 1.67 next week some time.

If it's still not working I'd try making a little delay between the two assigncommands. They sometimes fuck up in a chronological sense. AssignCommand(oTarget, ClearAllActions(TRUE)); DelayCommand(0.2, AssignCommand(oTarget, JumpToLocation(lDest))); Note that I'm not sure this will bring the soluti...

Test thoroughly with stacks.

Done. And done.

Unless there's a problem with Set/GetPersistentObject and stacks that I'm unaware of.

Well, testing tonight went off without uncovering a single bug. I'm sure they're there, but we're happy enough with its stability to get the code in our production module this weekend. Happy happy joy joy! Oh, I forgot to mention the best part! Because Get/SetPersistentObject stores containers along...

SORCO persistance on Avlis and Hala does this, and we have it working on the inn persistant chests in Hades, thus they are able to store off-world items that are not on our palette. Thank the Avlis team. I'm sure whoever coded it could help you out with yours, too! ^^ Yes. SCO/RCO using Set/GetPers...

In the next couple of weeks, truly persistent item backups will be in place when a PC dies on WoG. Although it rarely happens, it does happen: You die, and the server crashes before you can get your things back. Well, shortly you will be able to die on Greyhawk without fear of losing your unique or ...

Update to the update: * I've tweaked the experience a bit more to our liking. Still have to test. * World leader has the afore mentioned perl scripts finished. Every creature and item stored in any of the assorted Bioware data files can be (and has been) imported into the database lickety split. Thi...

Not to clutter the thread, but are you going to impliment the original Greyhawk NPCs, the master mages like Bigby, Mordekainen, etc? Just curious. Clutter away. The short answer is yes. The long answer is that we're so caught up in getting all of the nuts and bolts in place that we haven't really h...

Been a while, but we are still very much alive and kicking. Since the last update, our primary builder (Terror2001) has been building like a madman. Again, concentrating on the towns and travel routes. But he is laying down the pallet upon which we'll begin dropping all of the interesting things to ...

I think mostly because no one has so far thought this up. There could be some lag problems, but I don't think so. If the function to save the pins (ExportMapPins) is placed in the OnClientExit event as opposed to the area OnExit event, there should be no lag problems. If in the area OnExit event, h...

Gah! I keep thinking of new things to say. The above "problems" aren't necessarily a bad thing, per se. Regardless if there are negative values and such, either the original addDateTime or my modified addDateTime preserves the ability to calculate, for example, milliseconds or seconds sinc...

Perhaps this belongs in a thread all its own, but even this code isn't quite so "bulletproof", as there's no protection against someone passing a datetime that has a negative number for one of the values. subDateTime suffers from the same malady that addDateTime suffers from, but it's actu...

Okay, the following should work (completely untested, though... in fact, I wrote it in Notepad, so I don't even know if it'll compile): // // Add two DateTimes // struct DateTime addDateTime(struct DateTime date1, struct DateTime date2) { // add milliseconds date1.millisecond += date2.millisecond; w...

If you're adding 15 months, then if the current month is, say, 9 or greater, the sum of the two is 24, which should add 2 years and return a result of 0 months. But since it only goes through the if statement once, it will set the month to 15+9-12 = 12, and add only one year. This isn't an issue if ...

EDIT: I have tried to figure out why this happens, but am entirely unsure. I don't even know of addDateTime is relevant to the scripts above, but figured I'd mention it anyway. No, it's not used in the above, but I thank you for the head's up. I will take a look at it after I get back from lunch an...

Oops... and you also need to include "datetime2".

void CheckExploreArea(object oArea, object oPC){ // James Surles, WoG, August 2005 string sAreaName = GetTag(oArea); int iTimeSpent = GetPCInt(oPC, "iTime"+sAreaName); SetLocalDateTime(oPC, "dtLastEnterTime", getCurrentDateTime()); // 12 in-game hours = 43200, 6 in-game hours = ...

question: this only saves player made map pins, right ? Those that are server side won't be saved ? Good question. One I've been meaning to test, in fact. This gives me the perfect impetus to do so. *furiously opens the toolset and places a map note waypoint* My guess is no. Only user-made map pins...

The thing I find most annoying about NWN PWs is the lack of persistency in the map pins. So of course, that was one of the early things that I coded for World of Greyhawk. Because it's (a) super simple, and (b) I play on other CoPaP worlds so I'm posting this code in the hopes that it will be implem...

Since the last (and first) update, things have slowed down a bit. Our world leader has been steadily working on fitting the BIG stuff together, although he did take a short break. The dynamic spawn system is up and working, although tweaking of it is certainly to take place. A web-based front end fo...

With the dead magic areas, will all weapons be a basic weapon (IE A +5 sword of uberness will become a regular sword of not-so-uberness)? Same with armor, amulets, etc, so you cant rely on magic That's the idea. But it's set up so you can actually toggle whether player buffs will be stripped or not...

The World of Greyhawk is starting to come together. Slowly, but surely. While the scripters work on the nuts-and-bolts of the game mechanics (some highlights below), area builders are busily building the "shell" of the world. Many of the main routes of travel have been done (but not popula...

I was out of town when all this went down, so I never was able to get my character ported to another server. I'd like to see it come up for a bit more time (even if it's dead and nothing is going on) if only so that those of us who missed out on the news can get our character data saved on another s...

Oops... variable declarations moved outside of the case.
