Tiempo RPG Updates
Tiempo Setup
Today makes the start of the Tiempo RPG setup. I have secretly ben thinking of a way where users could fight each other without GM intervention and Tiempo RPG is definitely it. I am still working through the code, but so far I have integrated it into the Community starting with this Board and the login process. Expected completion: 19 July, 2005.
Now Open
We have been testing it and everything seems good enough to be opened. Tiempo is very different from our other RPGs as it is 'turn based', you also start 'rich' rather than having to build yourself up - after all you are the Ruler of your own Empire and not a start out Villager as in the World of Medieval.
Automatic Matrix Calculations
I have disabled the script that does automatic calculations for players moves on a 10 minute basis as it seems no one is interested in this RPG, and it does not make sense for resources to be taken up on the system that can be applied elsewhere.
CODE |
For My Notes: For restart: Enter cron job again at 10 minutes, line recorded in AM Notebook tasks. |
Recently, Krakyn showed interest in this so I decided to open it up. It used to be for Upgraded Members, but currently I am changing the code to accept any Member so long as they have at least posted an Introduction. I will announce more later.
Open To All!
After some modification and added codes I have done the following:
1. Enabled Tiempo for all Members above 'x' Posts.
2. You no longer have to contact me asking for permission or requesting a character. You can now do these things on your own - the script will guide you.
Out of Sync
I have not played this in a very long time. It is similar to https://www.RulerofKings.com (for those of you who are familiar with it), but a lot more complexed as there are more things to track. I will start a 'Bugs / Support' Thread for comments.
Updates
I am in the game as 'Neo' mostly for testing, but I will be unafraid to battle so watch out. I cannot login as JB because the script has Admin as 'no fight'.
I did notice that the current default "Create Account" link in the Tiempo ign up page would have confused players trying to register outside of the Community. I changed this to let them know they have to register through the Community.
