Discussion Mercenary as in guild wars?

[sacrifice]

Hello

I was wondering if someone had already started a project to make mercenaries as in guild wars on L2J
Someone would have an idea or track of something close to this idea?

 

Thx all

It is quite simple actually if I understood the concept (a scroll than you use with one of your character to register him as a follower, used with another character). It's nothing more than a FakePc, using data from an existing player instead of generating random values.

 

You register the scroll in one way or another (can be a HTM showing account characters, can be a scroll usable by the mercenary, can be a NPC) then it flags the character as a mercenary. Once it happens, everytime you connect with another character then the mercenary, it will summon the mercenary using player data.

 

Then you code the AI to make the basics - follow the leader, take drops (go to leader inventory), assist targets. You can even order your bot to do actions speaking (Say2 packet) and doing macros, he can broadcast stuff, make social actions according some events, etc...
