Including screen shots of the progs Interface and
screen shots of demos help tremendously in helping
newbies make decisions or weither or not a program is
worth the time to invest time and energy in exploring a
worthy program. Have you considered including

Pets and Hirelings following through Gates/Teleports

2003-08-02T21:36:59Z

Simple but fairly elegant Solution to the problem:

This gets put in teleport.cpp...
In two sections:
void teleporters(CHARACTER s)

void objTeleporters(int s)
.... (type=60)

Here is my Modified Version,
(the second goes in the type==60 [MoonGate Type)]

void teleporters(CHARACTER s)
{
P_CHAR pc_s = MAKE_CHARREF_LR(s);
<<<<<<<<<<<SNIP>>>>>>>>>>>>
teleport(s);
//Mythic Debug
//Lets Fix Tamed Following the Character
//If a PC goes through a Dungeon Entrance/Exit
[teleporters()]
// See if they have any Tamed following
// If so.. Move the Tamed through the Entrance/Exit
Right Behind em...

P_CHAR pc_b=NULL;
if( !pc_s->npc && pc_s->summoned>0 )
{
int a=0,b=0;
int serhash=pc_s->serial%HASHMAX;
for(a=0;a<cownsp[serhash].max;a++)
//Put all their Pets/Hirlings right next to em
{
b=cownsp[serhash].pointer[a];
if (b!=-1) //-1's that indicate non existance !!!
{
pc_b=MAKE_CHARREF_LOGGED(b,err);
if (!err )
{
if (pc_b->npc && pc_s->Owns(pc_b))
{
mapRegions->RemoveItem(b+CharacterOffset);
pc_b->x=iter_tele_locations->second.destination.x;
pc_b->y=iter_tele_locations->second.destination.y;
pc_b->dispz=pc_b->z=iter_tele_locations->second.destination.z;
mapRegions->AddItem(b+CharacterOffset);
teleport(b);
}
}
}
}
}
return;
}
}
iter_tele_locations++;
}
}

The only Difference in objecttele...()
iis we only do this instead of mapRegions->

                                          if\( chardist\(DEREF\_P\_CHAR\(pc\_s\),b\) &amp;lt; 15 \)

{
pc_b->MoveTo(pmi->morex,pmi->morey,pmi->morez);
teleport(b);
}
==================================

That works very well. I have some major modifications
to the old 12.x Source and can not Merge/Update to the
new code anymore. I just thought this would be an
improvement over the hassles of tamed/hirelings and
getting them through the Dungeons. I've tested this
with the base world with some modifications where Your
World File has Teleporter Logs placed and Located
through the Teleport.scp Script.... I've tested most
locations with no hassles at all. (Oh and Tamed stay no
closer then 3 Hexes which is why I did a distance check
-- AI and Follow target changes)

Mind you, I have majorly modified this code, including
a whole new Multiple AI Types with a Modified P_AI
search routine for targets and 128 Spells instead of
64, (Wizard and Cleric Classes-- of the 6 Classes) in
the current Verison I call WolfMod 2.5a .

So ignore the pc_s->summoned, I limit Players to a Max
[3] controlled Creatures Summoned/Charmed/Tamed. I had
to add a Counter to track em and I use it for the Word
of Faith and Sanctuary spells as well. (Players don't
have a SummonTimer running, so I put it to use for
Sanctuary -- No sense creating anymore extra memory
needs if I don't have to ... *ugh*).

ps> You will notice most of this is just cut and paste
from the Two Versions [12.x - latest], as I was
glancing through how you all were updating LoS checks
-- (I fixed the issue with Cave Walls -- Just did a
map.height check during the map.id test for mountains
-- worked like a champ [at least so far -- needs more
testing] ).

Enjoy...

Make MySQL powered emu!

2002-10-20T20:48:58Z

I think WolfPack should use the MySQL database for
storing all account, config, and world data. This could
provide for a very fast emulator, ease of making web
based account tools, and opertunity to make complex
web based administration apps. This would provide
means for script managers, account managers and
remote admin apps to easily be built and be cross
platform if using a language such as PHP, Perl or
Python. I think this would be a very fitting change as
WP is moving to Python as it's scripting language. Fell
free to add any other benifits/draw backs. Hope to see
this implimeted! It would give all the other emu's a run
for their money ;-).

trammel/felucca gates

2002-09-22T13:10:56Z

I would suggest gates where, as in the game that is paid for, you
can select your destination and also go between felucca and
trammel.

An Convert Tool

2002-04-03T18:39:52Z

I'm moving to Wolfpack from the sucks sphereserver,
but i would like to transfer my own scripts made in
sphere. Can the wolfpack development team make some a
tool to do this ?
This will prob be most important to get more users to
wolfpack emu, so, let's work. :)

Duping Gold in Piles, adding Checks

2002-03-03T16:41:15Z

Hi i would like to see a Gold change when you
say 'dupe 10, and click on the gold it does not dupe
single gold coins, but a whole pile. Plus you need to
add checks to it.
Thanks
