- Converted all Types from C# types to .NET Types (such as bool changed to Boolean, and int changed to Int32).
- Zone no longer gets saved from within GameWorld.Save, but rather in Realm.Save()
- Room no longer gets saved from within GameWorld.Save(), but rather in Zone.Save();
- Added new SaveWorld command that admins only can execute to force save the world. It's not fully implemented at this time.
MudGame:
- began work on command execution from within the server while it's running.
- 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.
- Rooms can now be linked automatically via the new Zone.LinkRooms method. Room linking can no longer be done manually as the Doorways property is now read-only.
- Door.Description has been removed. Doorway description will need to be included in Room.Description or Room.DetailedDescription properties.
- Added DetailedDescription to make creating multi-line descriptions easier. Not supported by the Look command yet.
- Game.IsRunning is now read-only. The Game will manage this property on its own.
- BaseCharacter.ExecuteCommand now will always return a string. Simplifying the game loop for users as they no longer need to check what Type was returned by the command.
- Doors now contain a DepartureRoom and a ArrivalRoom property allowing for easy access to Rooms that are linked together.
- Fixed a bug where Game, Realms and Zones always assigned IsInitial to Realms, Zones and Rooms when added to the collections. Collection would contain multiple IsInitial objects.
- Removed Room.InstalledDoorways property as that was used only by the old Designer
- Removed Room.Load() as that implementation of it is obsolete.
MudGame:
- Revised Zeroth to build it's Zone and Rooms using the new Zone.LinkRooms function.
- Greatly revised Program.cs and the Game loop to take advantage of many of the automations provided by the Engine now.
