is there any way i could code in to where one can buy rooms between 2 vnums, and have it limited, so like the Inn will be full if people have bought all 10 rooms
and they will spawn there after saving and returning
it can be used as a store room
they can like only own it for 5 days
that way its not always full
There is a way to do almost anything. Whether it's worth the effort to do so is another message. I don't know if smaug has clan store rooms or personal homes like SWR, but you can take a look at that code for ideas how to do it. You would also need to create some method of recording how many rooms are left of the total. Perhaps INN_DATA or something similiar. When you decide how you want to do it, we can answer technical questions much easier.
i would love to use SWR, but i have not found a Win32 port of it, and i do not know how to use cygwin
so im stuck using this smaug 1.4a ported win32
i would like to use the clan store rooms as a type of house, how can i do this
I thought there was one in the download area here:
ftp://ftp.gammon.com.au/smaug/StarWars.zip
Anyway, I suggest that if you are going to run a MUD it would help to get used to coding, otherwise the code is going to be the same as everyone else's including messages like "Thoric says blah" when you probably won't have a Thoric in your game.
it gives to many area error messages
but, back on subject, can i turn storage rooms into houses some kinda way?
Yes, you look at the code in SWR, use/modify it to smaug, and implement it that way. No one is going to write something like that for you, nor could they without seeing what you already have.
there is a smaug player housing snippet on kyndig where the player can rent an apartment or buy a house and fit it out with furniture, mobs and multiple rooms. I cant tell you how easy it is to install as i havent gotten to that one yet.
ok thanks i will look into it
