Fraid not, but you're more than welcome to grab the code and roll with it. :) Last time I mucked with it, it was running pretty good. -Shay Matt Willis wrote: > ...just a friendly ping to see who's out there...anyone know if this > project is active? > > Matt > |

IceMUD, CConvert and the Classes plugin have all been added to CVS. I will be using CVS for source control from now on, so it will always contain updated code. -Shay |

Well dangnabbit.. I was looking at the wrong project.. I guess I did do an update..

What's sad is I don't even remember if I have updated code not checked into sourceforge, or if sourceforge actually is the most updated.. -Shay |

Hey Dan, The project never really took off because of lack of interest. I could probably be dragged back into it though.. ;) I'm out of town right now so I can't do anything, but next week I could import your changes. Go ahead and continue messing with it in the meantime. btw, sorry I didn't get back to you earlier, I've been damn busy. -Shay At 07:48 PM 10/7/2003, Dan Howe wrote: >Is this list still active? > I recently DL'd the drop of ICEMUD that is on sourceforge.

Is this list still active? I recently DL'd the drop of ICEMUD that is on sourceforge. I have it running. I identified, and fixed several bugs, but am not sure if there is anyone out there who is maintaining the code to send updates to.. hmmm... -Dan |

In order to further help the beta testing, a server has been setup at www.highstyleweb.com [209.98.146.146]. The server is called Assassin's Guild and is running the latest version of IceMUD. IceMUD is a java version of CircleMUD. I'm such a big fan of Circle, that I built it with Circle as a template. If your interested, telnet in and check it out. Thanks, Shay |

I've gone ahead and made BeatListener abstract, and setup processEvent to
create a thread of itself. This will solve both problems.

When you first brought this up yesterday, I went back and looked at the code. I then tried some combat. There were numerous bugs that I hadn't seen before. In most cases, I was able to have continous combat, but when the combat was over, there seemed to be a few different bugs. I'm should be able to get combat ramped up today and ready to go. Once I do, I will post a new build. This includes the flee fix. -Shay At 12:11 AM 10/23/2002 -0700, douglas d wrote: >I don't know. > >It mostly doesn't work. > >I tried the clean build, with characters I had in the DB, and they would >continue in combat.

Leveling should be done, as are spells. Of course, I'm sure there are some bugs, but that's to be expected. Light on the other hand, I haven't really done anything with. -Shay At 11:25 PM 10/22/2002 -0700, you wrote: >Hi Shay, > > I bumped up cash a bit for some character, and I have some questions >about what is and is not implemented. > > I am just tyring to get an understanding about what is implemented here >and what needs to be done, so that I can know what to depend on, and what I >need to write for the mud. > > >to what extent are these implemented? > > leveling > spells > light |

You can use the "load" command. Just type "load" and it will give an explanation. Also, you can use "vnum" to find any item/mob vnums. -Shay At 11:14 PM 10/22/2002 -0700, you wrote: >Hi Shay, > > I can't make a lot of progress with naked first level characters. > > Has any immortal / wizard stuff been implemented to make it easy to load >a sword or something into the donation room? > > > > easy, > douglas d |

I found the flee problem yesterday. Yup, single line of code.. oops..
As for the BattleListner, the code that runs it is below that commented
line. I decided to go with threads because I didn't want the Heart to
stop. This way, it only takes a micro-second to start of a round of
hitting. While the round is going, we still have a HeartBeat. I just
haven't deleted that line of code thats commented out, will now though.
Also, there is a generic class called BeatListener, which has the
processEvent class in it. I will make this abstract later and have other
Listeners be built off of it. This is just another thing I haven't gotten
around to.
Thanks for the input!

Douglas, I've pasted a list of commands yet to be implemented. I created these references yesterday to give myself an idea of what was left. Quite a few commands, but most of them are fairly basic. Some of the class locations might be wrong however as I just whipped through them. I'm using the Circle code base as a source of information. A lot of the code is just converted from C++ to Java. The backbone, like the battle system, is mine. Just simple things like commands, etc, are from Circle. Things will change drastically once everything is working however. As for combat, I just tried it and it worked fine for me. Flee however does have a bug that when you do it, the game still thinks your fighting, even though it moves you to a different spot. You can no longer move in that instance and have to quit and rejoin to continue playing. I'll fix that first. Logging is another thing that I was going to add later. There are some nice Logging classes out there that work great for these things, I just haven't had time to add any. -Shay At 09:26 AM 10/22/2002 -0700, douglas d wrote: >Which commands need to be implemented, and what source of information are >you using to base the implementation on so that it mirrors the Circle >implementation. > >I might take a stab at fixing up combat a bit, since on my installation, >flee doesn't remove you from the fight, and you only seem to attack once, >not with every tick. > >Or I might add logging, so it's easier to see what is going on. > >Or I may not have any time at all :-). > > easy, > douglas d > > > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "shay" <sh...@hi...> >To: "douglas d" <dou...@sp...> >Cc: <ice...@li...> >Sent: Tuesday, October 22, 2002 8:39 AM >Subject: Re: [Icemud-general] error at startup > > > > > > My next step is finishing the commands.

Which commands need to be implemented, and what source of information are
you using to base the implementation on so that it mirrors the Circle
implementation.
I might take a stab at fixing up combat a bit, since on my installation,
flee doesn't remove you from the fight, and you only seem to attack once,
not with every tick.
Or I might add logging, so it's easier to see what is going on.
Or I may not have any time at all :-).
easy,
douglas d

My next step is finishing the commands. Once that is done It will be beta and I will start looking for bugs. That and writing documentation when time permits. Feel free in posting any fixes/implementations that you decide to do. Wanna write the docs? :) -Shay At 08:26 AM 10/22/2002 -0700, you wrote: >Hi Shay, > > Thanks for the answers.

You can write up a bug! ;) I tried to make the table/value names as obvious as I could. If you have any questions about a particular table(s), just let me know and I'll do my best to explain them. -Shay |

In most development projects, documentation is usually not written till after beta. I try to make things as clear as I can, but in some cases It's hard to do just that. Combat methods are contained in mud.engine.command.Offensive. All commands are contained in the mud.engine.command package. There is also a BattleListener, which takes care of the battle ticks. Its located at mud.listeners.BattleListener. I believe there are still a few small details to be worked out with it, but in most instances it works as desired. > Thanks again for your time.

There was a bug dealing with putting Items inside of Items. The problem was that when a zone gives an item to a mob, you have to create a new copy of that item first. Well, I was doing that, but once it was in I forgot about it. If the zone then wanted to put an item inside of this new item you created, you would get an error because that item was forgotten. Does that make sense? Anyways, I put a fix in the new build, and popped it up on sourceforge. Give it a try and let me know if you have any further problems. -Shay At 04:28 PM 10/20/2002 -0700, you wrote: >Hello, > I am trying to get icemud started. I've worked through the DB issues.

You should delete all of the tables but tblnotes, tblapplysavingthrow, tblskills, tblsettings, tblusers, tblusersequipment and tblsubitems. All other tables should be ok to remove. All of these are created by IceMUD, not by CConvert. -Shay At 03:58 PM 10/20/2002 -0700, douglas d wrote: >I read the following in a previous mail I saw in the archives : > >I am also seeing the same problem, after having loaded one zone from the >standard circle distro 3.0, and then loading all of them. > >The suggested source of the problem being a duplicate entry says to me that >you can't modify a previously loaded area without dropping the tables.

Hello,
I am trying to get icemud started. I've worked through the DB issues. I
loaded the areas from the circle30bpl22 release of circle mud. When I start
the server, I get a null pointer exception.
This doesn't look like the previous exception posted.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you for your time.
easy,
douglas d

I read the following in a previous mail I saw in the archives :
I am also seeing the same problem, after having loaded one zone from the
standard circle distro 3.0, and then loading all of them.
The suggested source of the problem being a duplicate entry says to me that
you can't modify a previously loaded area without dropping the tables. If
this is true, could you tell me what tables to drop, so that I can load
modified areas without deleting character info?
Thanks for your time. The mud looks intersting so far.
easy,
douglas d

This error probably means you have duplicate entries in your database. I'd
suggest deleting the tables and running CConvert again, and then running
IceMUD.
