  • Phoenecia sits here, drooling into a cask.
  • incall is your friend Xiuhcoatl!
  • (Quote) I've avoided bringing this point up, but the investment is already there in other requirements if you want to realistically PK at the highest levels. The cost of a good system isn't even the full cost of one skill. This game req…
  • This also isnt WoW or Starcraft, and I am glad that it isnt. WoW is probably one of the worst examples of fun PvP in my mind.
  • You are assuming the environment of the game never changes, when it is constantly changing. This can be attributed to new skills being introduced, new methods of handling curing, use of skills beyond how they were used before, etc. In this environme…
  • I certainly want combat to be challenging, but the type of challenge surrounding things like this isn't the right type of challenge, and again, comes to coding simple bypasses rather than tweaking around core mechanics.
  • The other issue @Moirean, is while those things did exist, they acted as an even larger barrier to combat. Many of those mechanics relied on gimmicky tactics or foo…
  • Randomizing curing orders or screwing with discernment would drastically change the way combat is now. Honestly, there is a reason that I've never been able to get into the combat in other IRE games, and that being that I enjoy the precision of comb…
  • Would be quite amazing if it did ignore curatives that didnt even apply to your status as well.
  • I'm 3 years into my career now all because as a kid I got hooked on programming via this game. I don't necessarily program for a job, but it led me into a lot of other options and I still use programming on the job quite a bit. The mindset behind pr…
  • This looks like a great resource for anyone looking to either expand their knowledge on Lua, how a system's logic is normally handled, or even start their own system (using a Lua enabled client). Pretty nice!
  • (Quote) So it isnt that it is set to room, it is that the room and inventory share the same table (no freaking clue why) so you have to create event handles for both room/inv updates and cache them locally if you want to utilize those e…
  • I currently run my whole precaching and some defense requirements off gmcp.IRE.Rift. I make use of both the Change event and the List event. It would be best to make an event handler (for both events) and just have it display that variable (or gmcp.…
  • Anyone else have an issue with mudbot killing the ability for gmcp.IRE.Rift to populate? I've got a few people who seem to have that table non-existent when using Mudbot, but fine without it.
  • Server side curing might get more people involved to some extent at lower levels, but I don't know if it will ever replace the effectiveness you can get from tweaking/coding your own curing to adjust to the changing strategies and updates to skills.…

  • The attitude comes from the fact that the vote was started because I wasn't participating, I post that I am starting to re-read some more so that I can better participate and then the votes keep coming saying I'm not advancing the game. At that poin…
  • Alright, well screw it then. No point going over anything now at this point. Toodledoo!
  • So, I reread through this thread to try and get a better grip of what to go for. The Desian train, while understandable, was quite a quick response, which always worries me when people jump one one name so quickly both from people who had and had no…
  • Have fun lynching another Rellyw!
