Obsidian Crusade's Journal (original) (raw)

Yes I got lazy and with tom being gone most of the days it's easy to do mudwise eheh. Anyway I'm back to working on stuff again. We did some tweaking of stuff a while ago. I really can't remember what though. Still gotta rename rooms but that will get done eventually.

Stuff has been added to the newbie zone to get you up to level 10. Testing that with a mage right now. It's working well enough. Tick speed has also been dropped to 30 seconds. You get hungrgy a bit faster but otherwise its better. Oddly enough I gain more hp than mana at this point when leveling so I'm going to have to look into that. I may have shitty stats. Kinda forgot where it figures that since it's been a longtime since I messed with that.

Need to look into the mob ability to junk things via scripts today. Doesn't seem to want to work. It can junk with the normal command so if all else fails I'll just set a non message NPC junk option.

I also need to look into the time fucktions and perhaps try to figure out why it doesn't save time rigth so it assumes we are constantly playing causes rapid aging. Worst case scenario age is removed cause it doesn't have to affect anythign if i mess with regen a bit. Speaking of which i need to make it regen mana faster or equal to hp. W all know this keyboard sucks ass, but I just typed fucktions. Thats probably a bad habbit =P

Is eating every 12 min too much? Was thinking of doubling the time but then you technically eat every 2 mud days hehe.

Leveling goign decent with the mage though. Looks like spells need a bit of tweaking but for the record it takes 25k exp to get from 9-10. It's not too bad looks like I will have killed 200 mobs or so by levle 10. maybe alittle high but i kill lower stuff for safety. If i recall the fastest you could do it woudl be 90 or 100 or something.

I plan to format this comp soon. At that time I will probably get a port mapper thingy so that others can log on and perhaps help build remotely once they request the current ip from me via icq. Thats curenty the only option since I don't want to pay for hosting and can't afford a cable modem. Not to mention there are still tons of code changes needed.

Think that is it for now. More tonight unless i get too lazy to post.
