Artifact Chest 2.0

[Sabre]

You're still here?

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

Hi.

until its passed out all the items it has to give

Exactly how many? 1?

One for everybody who does not cheat.

Hi.

It would vary with the chest. Up to 10.

 

[Dark_Force9999]

wouldn't that mean you're gonna need to fix up those Artifact Chest in the other maps? Max I ever seen anything dispense out of those are 4 maximum, from the best to garbage order.

One for everybody who does not cheat.

All the artifact chests are being ported to this system (and have been on the ultra-beta servers). The most items I think any current artifact chest has is 6, and yeah, more often 3-4. Again, this gives it out in order of who has the most damage points, and they pick from amongst the inventory.

If the system works well, I'll likely port more and more stuff over to artifact chests. The reason there are currently so few artifact chests, is they are currently not all that dependable.

Should point out, if a new style arti-chest runs out of players before it runs out of items, it'll still vanish. It won't give more than one item per player.

Will arty 2.0 be included in FEB2008a betapack?
Oh, and Dark, f*ck off.

 

[Jon]

Hoping so. Im getting sick of the low people begging for the uber stuff.

 

[Thothie]

Yes, although whether FEB2008a actually comes out in Febuary remains to be seen.

Hey Thothie, instead of having score reflect max HP I think it would be better if it showed the chest points. Wouldn't be hard at all to do, all you would have to do script side is call a script command like setuserpoints <target> <points> everytime their points change, or every so often. Then code side would just be making that command and setting frags = to the param. I'll do the code stuff if you think its a good idea.

 

[Thothie]

I think, for the server info screen, maxhp would be better. It'd also help differentiate people with the same title. At the moment, damage points only affect a very few chests – most maps don’t even have artifact chests. If ye could get both up there, that maybe another story, but the main thing would be to somehow get frags replaced by maxhp, so that people could get a jist of the level of the server before joining.

 

[Shurik3n]

Well theres a small problem if a map has two artifact chests. What seems to be the case is that the first chest works fine, and the people with the most points get their items and are flagged as having gotten an item. Then the second chest comes around (and likely has better items as its further in the map, but this might not always be the case) and any newcomers or people who didn't get anything from the first chest have first pick on the (possibly) better items. This is only what may have happened, only seen it once and I could be that the person who was late to join did actually get more points than everybody else.

He was using a darksword, which is another concern. If damage points aren't capped to a monsters max hp (which they may be, I don't know) somebody could run around with a darksword hitting 1000+ on rats and get more points by the end of the map than anybody else.

And I believe I did send you a PM about making frags = maxhp, from your last post it sounds like you didn't see it.

I’d have to look into what might cause that, but each artifact chest is spawned uniquely and starts the process all over again. It maybe I flagged the players in the process or something

* PS. I just noticed something bad - the bad-word censor also censors code, which may cause issues should some var have a bad word within. Just be sure that you enable swearing in your profile before trying to compile any of my code snippets, should ye need to in the future.

He was using a darksword, which is another concern. If damage points aren't capped to a monsters max hp (which they may be, I don't know) somebody could run around with a darksword hitting 1000+ on rats and get more points by the end of the map than anybody else.

Fear not, I thought of exactaly that.

Here’s the bit that handles the damage-point tracking:

 { [server] game_damaged_other //PARAM1=target_hit PARAM2=dmg //players only?
	
	if ( $get(PARAM1,relationship,ent_me) equals enemy )
	{
		if !$get(PARAM1,isplayer)
		local DMG_DONE PARAM2
		local NME_HP $get(PARAM1,hp)
		if ( NME_HP < DMG_DONE )
		{
			local DMG_DONE NME_HP //so we don't get 1000 dmg points for darksword'ing a rat
		}
		add PLR_DMG DMG_DONE
		if ( PLR_DMG >= 1000 )
		{
			callexternal GAME_MASTER add_score $get(ent_me,id) 1
			subtract PLR_DMG 1000
		}
	}

	if DISPLAY_TARG_HP
	setvard HBAR_TARGET PARAM1
	callevent 0.1 show_hbar_monster //give time for health to propigate
}

Well shit.

Shit, or S.H.I.T., or S.H.I.T. crest?

S.H.I.T. crest

 

[Sabre]

S.H.I.T. crest

Thothie, I'm almost willing to fix something you've been bitching about for a long time so you would throw that crest in...Come on...

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

My love for the artifact chest 2.0 has suddenly become a bit less.

I just went to your server, which was running Wicard Oven. In your server, there was a player called Kyle (level 27), who had killed about six of the first monsters in the map; apparently I joined like two minutes after the map started. A few minutes later, a dude named Brad (level 26 or something) joined. Brad and I showed Kyle the way through the map because he had never been here, and we reached Maldora. Just as we started the boss fight, Vengeance joined. And about 30 seconds later, HumanSteak joined.

In the process of beating up Maldora, I did at least 1500 damage to him, probably more, and I spammed two healing circles to make sure Kyle, Brad and Vengeance wouldn't die.

Maldora died, and an artifact chest showed up. It ignored me completely and it gave Kyle a phoenix armor and Vengeance a volcano scroll.

I am very, very curious as to why the artifact chest ignored me completely, while I helped beat the entire map (except for the first... what... two minutes). There is no chance in hell Kyle could have done more damage than I did; he was using Calrian's mace and I was using my dark sword. In fact, I am quite sure that I also did more damage during the entire map. Why was I ignored by the artifact chest?

 

[Shurik3n]

Did Kyle and Brad just periodically ice shield each other over and over? :roll:

 

[Thothie]

It may simply be kyle did more damage than ya thought he did (maybe you were tossing magic at Maldora?), but of course, it may not...

Type my_points at console to get a report on how many damage points you currently have. I need to setup the Artifact Chest log to list how many points folks have...

As a developer tool, ye can use

lplayers scriptvar PLR_TOTAL_DMG

To get a list of all players damage points (multiply by 1000).

If it comes up all 0's use PLR_DMG instead. (Means everyone has less than 1000)

PS. I love watching ms_wicardoven crash, over and over again, because people keep trying to stuff 8 players into it. Meh, at least I've a recompile for that ready - I just hope Replica doesn't kill me for butchering his map with new lighting systems. image image image

Replaced 124 torches. ><

 

[J-M v2.5.5]

There is no chance in hell Kyle could have done more damage than I did; he was using Calrian's mace and I was using my dark sword.

Did Kyle and Brad just periodically ice shield each other over and over? :roll:

Could be that they both casted it like only once, so I doubt that was a factor here. The fight didn't last very long either.

Edit: Just tried Crash Oven again, and at one point my player points went from 1400 to 1200 to 1500. Shuriken's points were also going down. Steak had roughly 1200 points and Vengeance went from 7500 to 12000...

...

O_O ...!!!

 

[Shurik3n]

Well so heres something. My points are going down.
