Aardwolf MUD News and Updates.

Fantasy Fields goal, recon change, others.

Lasher, June 22, 2024June 22, 2024

New Goal in Fantasy Fields:

Level Range         : 5 to 30
Goal Difficulty     : Medium
Goal Recommended at : 15
Area Author         : Tsubaki
Goal Converter      : Teleron

Other Changes in this Update:

  • You can now put the current room sector in your prompt with %S.
  • If you have noexp on, it will no longer consume a daily bonus exp mob and instead give a message:

    Daily bonus exp not used. You have 56 bonus exp kills remaining.

  • Similar change, I have made the messages when you are effectively ‘noexp’ while in a gquest more consistent with the noexp messages and they will not use a daily double bonus if you have one.
  • The ‘recon’ command is now available to everyone. When you use recon without having the skill, it shows only the room / area and sector. Sector is a little different because it also shows the sector flags if they are different than the sector name. Sector flags is what tells the code if, for example, a sector type is considered inside/outside or nature. For example, recon in a field shows:

    Sector type is : Field (field, outside, nature)

    The rest of the information shown by recon is like the skill, so there are three scenarios:

    • If you don’t have the skill, the command ends.
    • If you have the skill but fail the roll, you see a message and the command ends.
    • If you have the skill and it works, you see the rest of the normal recon command.
  • The Quest MCCP bonus has been removed and the base rewards for all quests have been increased by the same 2 Quest Points. We no longer need this perk and it just makes people who can’t use MCCP for whatever reason feel left out.
  • The base QP reward for all gquest wins has been increased slightly. The bonus for the lower tier of gquests has been removed – all three tracks reward the same now.
  • You can’t invite someone to a group if you are ignoring them.
  • Fixed a bug in keyring list/sort and vault list/sort where it showed the count of items out of order if you had paging on.
  • Fixed a bug with entering a portal then getting immediately transferred by a mob showing the final room twice.
  • There is a new ‘nofollow players’ option to remove any following players but leave pets. It does not change status like ‘nofollow’ with no arguments does.
  • There is a new ‘vault status’ option that shows just a summary of what is in your vault.
  • Nothing you can immediately see here but a bunch of mobprog / lua tools we added to allow mobs and areas to have variables assigned to them that can save over a reboot. These can be used to track many things but the immediate use is for preserving epic state / repop times over reboots. Robbo has already done a lot of work on [ AREAS ] for this so please send us a note if you notice anything unusual with repops or epic/goal state in these areas.
