[RPG/MECH] sRPG v0.6 Preview - completely customizable RPG and Combat system [1185]

sRPG​

(yet )a(nother) very fully featured RPG plugin​

This plugin is now moved to devbukkit, i will leave this thread as is, and may also update it, but for now the devbukkit page contains the most recent information. Discussion may continue here or on devbukkit, i will check both.​

http://dev.bukkit.org/server-mods/srpg/​

Version: v0.6 Preview

Note: Only use the current version on a live server if you can handle bugs. While the most severe are probably dealt with, there are still lots of smaller ones. Content also is not yet in a finished and complete state. Configuration files and database tables may still change, so you may have to drop those for a new version, losing some data.

Short Summary:
This plugin seeks to combine a rich suite of RPG-like mechanics (xp, skills, active abilities, ...) with a complete rebalance of the combat system (changed monster hp, damage, weapon damage, new mechanics,...) and on top of that make the whole package completely configurable for server admins (and when i say completely, i mean it)

And finally, some thanks to


nossr50, for the inspiration to do this, and the source to mcMMO that really helped me getting started, not to mention that his plugin is great
sk89q, whose source of WorldGuard also was very enlightening, if sometimes slightly over my head
various other plugin authors that made their stuff available, really a boon for beginners when you can look at how other people did some things

 

well hi-res-textures are auto included in spout
You should try it yourself. Oh man can't wait for it

 

are they? last time i looked they were explicitely excluded
well, in that case i have less qualms of using the clientside features too

 

Not to hassle, but any news? Got kinda quiet over here.

 

Well i had to take a small break because i had/have some home improvement to do at the moment, and because of bastion and deus ex, but no worries, progress in development is still being made

 

Lol. Good to hear.

 

well maybe you should wait a little longer..... with the incoming 1.8 and rpg additions like parry hunger bar leveling and stuff

 

Just started using this yesterday (love it!), but we're running into a problem - despite having XP values configured (we have the default config for now), killing things doesn't grant XP. Users can still gain XP from breaking blocks, though - any idea what might be causing that?

 

unfortunately without any error log messages i have no idea, and as there are significant differences between the current dev build and the available public build, fixing it would not really be an option anyways. But at least i can guarantee that there is no similar error in the next build that will be released.

 

I really have absolutely no idea what the problem is here. It connects to mySQL, the dbs are there, I can do '/srpg help' just fine but '/srpg status' gives me this. I believe there's an error upon connecting as well. Any ideas?

that looks a bit like a permission error, since the old version still uses Permissions and not builtin permissions, but it should actually deactivate itself at startup if you don't have that installed. At least i am certain the error didn't carry through to the new version

 

I actually just downloaded this plugin yesterday, along with the permissionsbukkit plugin, so I unfortunately don't have anything that's out of date. Maybe I added my permission nodes wrong?

 

yeah the version that is online requires Permissions (the plugin, not permissionsbukkit), since there wasn't a proper release since the internal bukkit permissions came out. You can play around with the unstable build, but i would not recommend that for a live server. It also has little to no documentation and/or help yet

 

Once mySQL isnt needed it'l be great!

 

And how's it going mate?
Do you use the built in experience orbs now or something ?
Also overall status ?

 

yeah i will definitely use the orbs, and the xp bar why waste a perfectly fine display if it doesn't do anything yet anyways
Status is me reading up on the API changes for 1.8 and thinking about how i can fix the critical hit model i had working before, now that critical hits are in by default and work totally different I would really like to use the builtin sprinting and critical hits, but i'm not sure that's possible with the kind of fine-grained control i would need over it same for the bow, although in that case it goes more in the direction i would have liked to hack in anyways

EDIT: oh and i just saw that 1.9 is out already, so more stuff to plan ahead for

 

Well I guess notch turned up the development speed now a little...
Well if you need control over these things it might be worth to check in with the spout guys (again )

 

first forays into spout territory yielded this:



the former for a job which you are leveling at the moment, the latter for a already maxed job (players start out with the adventurer job which has a max level of 1)

As i very much like not being limited by a clunky chat window interface, i think i will make spoutcraft something between mandatory and highly recommended, because frankly it's a pain in the ass to display dense amounts of information via the chat i don't particularly like having the user scrolling through multiple pages via chat commands just to watch their stats and stuff. Not to mention various buffs and debuffs, which are difficult to display with chat only, apart from "you got cursed" and "the curse has faded" style messages

 

i was wondering if it were possible to limit the use of tools making it so that only a certain class can use an axe for wood if you werent the class the wood would just disapear is that possible or am i just having pipe dreams

 

Sort of important announcement:​

​

The plugin is now on devbukkit​

​

I just finished writing up the preliminary information there for the next version So if you are interested in whats coming up, go there and find out.
You may still continue to ask questions or give feedback here in this thread, i will still check it regularly. I will also still anounce any changes here for now.

@Kwenith
Yes, that would be possible, although the way i would do it is to prevent others from even chopping down the wood with an axe in the first place instead of removing the wood afterwards. There is also a planned (optional) system to prevent people from even equipping certain items.

 

when would it be set up im looking to do a professions sort of system in my sever

 

@HeadlessWarrior
You don't have Permissions installed (the plugin), the most recent release still requires it, since it was released before the builtin permission system was available.

 

i need help, what i does wrong?

 

@HeadlessWarrior
you are running 0.5alpha3 with craftbukkit 1185, those are expressedly not compatible (even if some features may work), either wait for 0.6 or use RB1000

 

thks, when new version of youe plugin will been aviable?

 

soon™
but i am steadily adding new features to make sure the waiting time is not wasted. Im almost finished with everything necessary to implement the first batch of jobs, after which a preview build will be released for testing.

 

ok, i waiting.
P.S. nice photo

 

hey, where is my update of plugin?

 

It's nice to be able to say:

Right here ​

This is a 0.6 preview build, with drastically reduced amounts of content, for public testing.
Included are 5 jobs, with roughly 50 skill and abilities. Skeletons are the only monsters that have any abilities in this preview build. One job is initially locked and has to be unlocked first.

Requires Spout
Spoutcraft for the users is highly recommended, but not required.

Deleting all prior srpg content is recommended, although in theory it should update the database. You do have to remove the plugins/srpg/ folder though, since the configuration files don't auto-update.

Some documentation can be found on the relevant devbukkit page, general information is on the frontpage of the plugin on devbukkit. More information for admins who want to try out the customization is available here, which may make more sense if you use it in combination with the default configuration files.

A few notes for some of the abilities:
The 2 active abilities of the Worker give you a temporary effect that only triggers when digging out blocks (dirt,grass or gravel) with your bare hands.
Rogue and Knight abilities trigger if you attack someone after preparing the ability.
2 of the Archer abilities are used with arrows and string in hand respectively.
Some of the passives only trigger under specific circumstances, for example many of the rogue skills only work when attacking someone from behind. The archer has a skill that only triggers when attacking from higher ground. Proper descriptions for every skill and ability will be added in the near future.

Have fun with it until the proper release

PS: if you file bug reports, using the ticket page on devbukkit may be better than here in the thread.

 

WTF???

 

well a few bugs are a given, its a preview build after all ill look into it
