I personally think it looks weird... but that means that _I_ wouldn't dye my bookshelves. I don't think it hurts anyone to have them dyeable, but players would definitely gripe if it is _not_ dyeable. My two cents

5. I like having players playing on my shard. 3. I enjoy writing code. 6. I enjoy finding and fixing bugs in the code (Yes, there are people who derive great pleasure in this.) 4. I like running quests. 1. I like building the map. 2. I like making buildings and decorating the world. 7. I like being ...

Hi DebugZHI, POL has been default multi-threaded since 2016 , and has supported _only_ multi-threaded since 2019 . However, the underlying C++ objects in the game themselves do not support multi-threads (eg. changing a Character's name is not thread-safe and cannot be done in two threads). We have t...

I like the hook idea. That gives shard developers complete control over how ammunition would be calculated. If the hook returns an integer, you could return 0 for no ammo used, 1 for normal, and then i dunno, maybe the player has some special skill attached that uses 3x ammo for 1.5x damage or somet...

Hi.

I was able to make this crash happen by calling DestroyItem() in a script ran from an item's EquipScript. Is this what you are doing? If so, why are you trying to destroy the item when the user is equipping it? Doesn't really make much sense to me.

Two things: 1. The packet log came from POL. If you use the command .startlog (and stop with .stoplog), you'll get a packet dump under ./log/<acctname>.log 2. "enemy of one" spell: Sounds like a person casts this spell, targets a mob, and all mobs that have the same "type" are no...

Hi ThisIsMe, Yeah, I remember looking at this before when I was fixing the other cliloc issue (the "System" in journal), and I couldn't find anything wrong in the code, but didn't test it in game. I did some in-game testing now, running the following code: var it := Target(who); PrintTextA...

All, We're poised to provide a release candidate for POL 099. Before then, we need a list of outstanding issues, so we can prioritize them and determine if its critical to fix prior to release. Please post your findings and we'll go from there. This is only for core, not distro scripts. Thanks, Kevin

What do you mean? You want a script to make a request to a web server, or you want POL's internal web service to accept an HTTP post request?

Yes

@ThisIsMe, this has been addressed in the most recent commit.

07-17-2017 Kevin:
Fixed: PrintTextAbove*CL() now behaves similarly to PrintTextAbove*() functions, displaying the object's description instead of "System".

Well, it looks like "System" is hard-coded in the core https://github.com/polserver/polserver/blob/master/pol-core/pol/clfunc.cpp#L54 which is a lot different of how it's handled for non-CL messages https://github.com/polserver/polserver/blob/master/pol-core/pol/ufunc.cpp#L1329 . I would s...

My two cents: I "grew up" on the Alt-Distro structure when working on Neverlands so I am pretty partial to it. I think it's easier to understand, but that may be just because I already do...? :D And yes, I agree that there should be some targeted era for POL distro, but there seems to be a...

I am so sorry to hear this. From the whole POL community, we send our prayers to you and your family. I hope he has a speedy recovery.

If I may ask, what is the gofundme page?

Hello.

What do you mean by source for the docs? The packets were mainly reverse-engineered many, many years ago. I think Folko did a lot of this work? Not sure. You can find the docs here: http://docs.polserver.com/packets/index.php

Can you provide a use case? My actions are performing fine. Have you modified your mul files at all? use uo; include "include/client"; program prg(who) PerformAction(who,ANIM_CAST_AREA); endprogram This does the proper action in the client. Can also see the packet sent if you turn on packe...

There are several logging scenarios within pol: // log into pol.log and std::cout // log into pol.log // log only into std::cout // log only into std::cout if level is equal or higher // log only into std::cerr // log into script.log // log into debug.log (if enabled) // log into leak.log You can ea...

Just got some emails. Looks like distro and tools are also moving to github.

Did you compile your scripts? It looks like it wasn't compiled. Warning! pkg/skills/warrior/anatomy/anatomy.ecl does not exist! Warning! pkg/skills/ranger/animallore/animalLore.ecl does not exist! Warning! pkg/skills/mage/itemid/itemID.ecl does not exist! Warning! pkg/skills/crafter/armsLore/armsLor...

You cannot run because when you log in, your character has 1 dex, meaning 1 stamina, meaning the client will not allow you to run.

i don't know about instantaneous/on-the-fly saving... just a guess (because i have no great knowledge on sql performance) but there would be tons of calls on large servers. sql call for each char movement... or imagine a PC/NPC death => create corpse item, corpse item properties, all items within th...

all three of those bugs should be fixed with rev 625 using this script to test: use uo; program test(who)     var item, res;     item := CreateItemAtLocation(who.x,who.y,who.z, 0xeed, 1000);     res := item.SplitStackInto(who.backpack,1000,1);     print("Result 1: "+res);     item := Creat...

This is a good idea, but I'm not sure about the logistics about world-save as I've never really worked on it. I'll investigate when I get some time.

Thanks for the idea.

Check your config/repsys.cfg entry to see what exported functions the core calls OnDamage. That's where you'll need to start. For example, here's the OnDamage hook for 99 distro, and notice how allied guild members are considered "lawfully damaged" and calls the AddLawfullyDamagedTo functi...

hmm... it's about time. i will discuss with other POL devs soon to decide what the future of an offical release candidate for pol99 will be, and go from there.

it's time for an updated binary and RC, because as real as it gets its time to move forward.
