Hello there..

 

I want to ask your opinion about my startup system...

Which of the two is better?

 

1--> 






2--> 

 

 

 

About Inside:

  • Invisible mode. [No one can see the new players, until character be completed].
  • Parazyle mode. [Players can't do anything until be completed].

Preview Mode:

  • Players can't target other players.
  • Players can't move inside.
  • Invisible mode.

tbh, i dont like any of those. Too oldish style, htmls are just WAY TOO colorful, moreover the whole thing should be done in Tutorial's packet so theres no X option on the window so player really decides whether he wants to get in the startup function or no.

 

Things i'd like to see:

1. Since you try to use special camera, use it dynamicly showing the current place with more details.

2. While showing zones, it would be nice to do it on fly mode giving a panoramic vision of the whole zone (while the invisible player flies over the zone)

3. Simple htmls w/o 1k different icons will make the theme more serious, less annoying because of the 1k different colors. (Atm its like i see a canvas with many many colors.)

4. As about giving gear to the player, you could make it on lvl up + class change, so its more dynamic based and not a fully paralyzed set of steps.(Let players free to do w/e they want, guiding them THAT much its like watching a movie w/o any kind of interest)

 

 

Thats always my point of view and how i would set it in case i wanted to do such a feature

  • I would make true cinematics instead of observing status. Not sure if ExShowScreenMessage works during cinematics, but you can give a try, with a full text in small typo instead of DROP : ADENA.
  • No formatting or old school formatting but that's the way I like to do my NPCs.

Second preview gives more choices regarding armor/weapon choice, which is needed because half of presets on servers are made by people who never played Lineage 2 (notably buffs choice which is often ridiculous).

 

As you got a wall of text, Tutorial HTM is probably not a good choice, until you revert to a really old school writting style with 2 columns when you got choices.

 

Finally what happens if the character closes the window or disconnects in middle of choices ? Did you handle that case ? The character has to come back where he stopped in the progression, otherwise that's an exploit (you stop in the middle of progression, restart > begin anew. You can use PlayerMemo to register the progression on aCis.

I like the camera movement on entering the world. is it supposed to be only on char creation and first login or will it fly down to your character every time you log in?

After of some days I got free time to make it with playerMemo. Tutorial HTML Isn't a good choice for some of code parts. 

Also, about ExShowScreenMessage, it works for observer but not normally. The message goes in right side of the screen and some words disappear if the text is big (maybe someone wants a big description).

 

Now startup ended like this for now:

It works but it needs to be coded in a very specific order.

Are you talking about the shitty HTML or the shitty and confusing observer mode?

 

Cuz they are both one liners with delays.

 

 

Here have some more ideas to rip off :D

People bragging on an hour work, 2k17 isn't that new after all

Mxc is outside of the regular timeline. It is always 2009 in here.

      Multi route walker npc HELP

      By Tryskell · Posted

      Verify if following is supposed to be the way to handle movement npc.getAI().setIntention(CtrlIntention.AI_INTENTION_MOVE_TO, new Location(point.getX(), point.getY(), point.getZ())); For me, it's not enough. And if it's the case, whole AI system is probably buggy.

Im trying to create, an NPC wich have multiple walk routes basic logic is  random pick a route complite the route  like Route 1 start form zero (0 -> 1 -> 2(or more) -> 1 -> 0) When the npc return to 0, the script should pic the other route and start again.  And if there is a message like point 1 here     "route1.addPoint(new RoutePoint(1, 148568, 172328, -980, 5, true, "Puff"));" The npc should display the chat message. Currently my problem is the npc not moving, but if I manage it to start moving its randomly move between the route 1 and 2 set of coordinates. Currently for me its  a nightmare. I hope anyone can help somhow.
