- Updated to work with ScriptingEngine changes.
MudEngine:
- Game.PlayerCollection changed to a List<>. Server obtains a array version of it within Server.initialize() via players = pbs.ToArray().
- All BaseObject classes now require a reference to the Game and contain a property called ActiveGame.
- Player.Game removed and now uses it's parent objects ActiveGame property.
- Player.Role property added. Uses the new SecurityRoles enum that specifies what level of access the player has.
- ScriptEngine now loads all libraries found within the specified ScriptsPath directory, instances the scripts and places them into a collection.
- Custom character script instancing is now supported, but not fully implemented throughout the engine. They can be loaded, but not used during runtime at this time.
- only TCP, works has been tested
- Commented out Lists and replaced with arrays, the way the list was working it wouldn't have worked, if you can figure out how to make it work feel free to fix it up.
- TODO: When user types exit, the game object becomes useless, I need a Reset function of some kind to reset it for when a new player comes in to reuse that player object.
- TODO: Encryption
- TODO: Fix main person so they have admin commands like list, restart instead of a game with the main server. (ATM Just like that for testing, but now you can test with telnet client)
- Re-worked the command system. All commands now only need 2 arguments rather than 4. The actual command string and the Player
- All commands updated to work with the new command system
- Look command now works in the example MudGame
- Realm now contains InitialZone for the starting Zone within that Realm.
- Zone now contains InitialRoom for the starting Room within that Zone.
- All Environment objects now contains a Initial property and Add() method for adding child objects.
- BaseCharacter now contains a copy of Game
- Revised Realm.GetZone()
- Revised Zone.GetRoom()
- Removed Zone.RebuildRoomCollection as content is currently no longer stored using physical files.
- Added GameManagement.Log for logging errors and warnings to file. Use Log.Write().
- Deleted GameObjects.Characters.Controlled and GameObjects.Characters.NPC namespaces.
- Deleted PlayerBasic & PlayerAdmin classes.
- BaseCharacter now contains IsAdmin property for providing admin privileges to users.
- BaseCharacter now contains IsControlled property for setting user control or AI controlled
- Added startup.dat - This will supply information to the engine as to what Types will be used during runtime. Allowing for custom Types via scripts to be instanced and used (such as a custom player class rather than the default one).
- Created PlayerAdmin class. All admins will be instances of this class; allows for segregating admin code into a different class for easier management and maintenance.
- CommandRestart now checks to make sure the player is of Type PlayerAdmin instead of player.admin
- Added ExecuteCommand to BaseCharacter. All Characters (NPC & Players) can execute commands now. Allows for AI to roam the world at some point in the future by invoking the available move commands.
MUDGame:
- Updated the command execution from CommandEngine.Execute to user.ExecuteCommand to use the BaseCharacter version.
- Changed PlayerBasic to PlayerAdmin for testing purposes.
TODO: Remove command execution from game loop, server should sit and wait for telnet data to be transmitted to it within the loop. That will be the command and passed off to the BaseCharacter/Player/NPC ect ExecuteCommand
- put server in Game
- created start server function in Game
- created CommandRestart
There are two different 'player classes' which do I use? PlayerBasic and BasePlayer.
- Added Look and Walk Commands, however they are not fully implemented.
- Corrected Networking classes having a public de-constructor. These must be private or the compiler fails.
- Corrected Networking classes using an incorrect 'using' statement. You cannot reference classes in the statement, must only reference the namespace itself (i.e. using MUDEngine.Networking).
- Removed using statement for Networking in the Networking classes as all classes created within that namespace automatically are within the same scope.
- Removed from solution
Mud Engine:
- Moved the CommandEngine, CommandResults and ICommand Interface out from the Commands namespace and into GameManagement since they manage the game commands.
- Added CommandExit class to provide the ability to exit a game once running. This is fully implemented.
- Realms, Zones and Rooms now have an IsInitial property for determining if this is an initial location for the Game.
- Renamed GameSetup to Game.
- Corrected GameObject being in the incorrect namespace.
- Corrected the ScriptEngine not
- CommandEngine no longer needs a Name argument. Arguments changed from 5 to 4 due to this change.
Mud Game:
- Added Example Game used for testing various MUDEngine features and testing constructability of games using the engine.
- Currently only contains 1 Realm, 1 Zone and Two Rooms. Only working command is Exit.
- Minor tweaks to Room.cs for checking file extension validity
- Scripting Engine and related classes added to Solution (Files existed but were not a part of solution)
- Updated MudDesigner to reference the new MudEngine solution.
- MudDesigner currently references engine classes within it's own solution and the MudEngine solution. This will be addressed soon. All classes related to the engine will be moved to the MudEngine project.
- Began prepping for the removal of all UITypeEditor classes and the namespace from the MudDesigner project.
Please note that while this version will compile, it is currently broken. Projects do not get created correctly due to the migration I'm performing. The designer is given less priority at the moment as the engine is the primary focus. Projects will need to be hard-coded using the MudEngine library until the designer is fixed.
