Layonara Server / Congratulations Ycleption
« on: July 27, 2009, 10:48:03 am »
As the world of Layonara continues to change, so to do our needs and methods. Something that has seen many changes over the years is the process of Character Approvals. While the policies, procedures and expectations have evolved, so too have our means of choosing who approves characters to play in this world. At first it was a position held only by GMs and only those who wished to take on the responsibility. At some point, we opened up the position to the greater community, and in that the application process also evolved over time. Having tried several methods thus far, we have decided to try yet another and directly approach a long-time member of the community for the purpose of having this individual join the Character Approver team, rather than open up a potentially lengthy application process to fill a rather immediate need.

Please join us in welcoming ycleption as Layonara's newest Character Approver. We believe ycleption's time, judgment, world experience and positive presence within the community will be an asset to the Character Approval team and, through this, the world as a whole.

If you stayed, please go to Group Membership and request membership to the TenTokens group.  Inside there are threads for each group, aptly named Caution, Bait and Detectives.  The information and interaction within those threads may prove invaluable though please to not cross post or use information from other groups unless you have consulted me.

Bait's session is set for this Friday on the calendar.

Thank you,

Layonara Server / Update to text/chat parsing
« on: July 13, 2009, 08:58:40 am »
[SIZE=-1]Hello Layonara Community!

Just over a month ago, when I released the current module revision (3.21.3), I included this comment at the end of the list of updates:

[/SIZE]
Quote from: Dorganath
Version 3.21.3 is online!
  • One other secret but really cool thing that I'll tell you all about once I'm sure it's working and not causing other problems *grins mysteriously*


[SIZE=-1]At the time, I was not ready to announce the feature, as I wanted to get some real, in-game testing done on it, both myself and with the assistance of the GM Team. Testing went very well, and now, as the title of this tread suggests, I'd like to introduce everyone to some rather nice changes to the text and chat parsing system.

Anyway, on to it (and yes, I know it's a bit long)...
 
 Background
With Bioware's 1.69 update, they added an OnPlayerChat event handler, which essentially intercepts typed text from a game client and allows a module to process the text and take actions on the text. When we went to 3.2 (and beyond) orth utilized this event to process  and *emotes*, which has been significantly faster than processing through our existing listener system. However, it didn't apply to all features, specifically those using self-tells (/o) and those that resulted in replacing typed text with something else entirely (i.e. language parsing).
 
 The Result
So, I got curious and did some experimenting, and in the course of an evening that led to having an alternate system for handling commands, language parsing, speaking through animal companions/familiars/summons/etc. and that whole set of stuff that you use /o something-something-something to accomplish.
 
The self-tell (/o) is still managed and intercepted by the listener, so what I did was come up with an alternate way to enact a self-tell so that the listener could be bypassed, letting the OnPlayerChat handler process the contents of that equivalent self-tell. Whatever is typed would then be processed and altered in some way before being displayed, if it was to be displayed at all.
 
To accomplish this, I chose a single character that is not ever likely to start any text chat in-game in any way and I used this as the indicator for special text processing. The character I chose is the equal sign (=).
 
 So how does it work?
Well, it's simple. Any place you'd have used a /o use = instead
 
So instead of /o c sits type =c sits
 
/o e waves
 ->  =e waves
 
 /o L Say something in another language -> =L [/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]Say something in another language
 
[/SIZE][SIZE=-1](note, these are not case-sensitive, but I thought I'd use upper-case L in this example for clarity)[/SIZE]
[SIZE=-1]
The syntax is similar for familiars (=f), summons (=s), and so forth.
 
I hope that makes sense.
 
 
What else?
Part of my motivation for this was to see if the request for GM-spoken text to be highlighted could indeed be done.  Well, it can, and GMs now have the ability and option to highlight their spoken text, whether spoken directly or spoken through an NPC.  

I want to stress: This is an optional system.  A GM is in no way obligated or forced to use this highlighting, nor should anyone badger a GM to do so. Some GMs will use it, some will not.  There are compelling arguments on both sides, and in the end, I decided it would be best to have it be an option rather than "always on" sort of feature. The end decision as to whether or not to use the system and under what circumstances is entirely up to the GM.

When used, GM-spoken text will be highlighted in ORANGE.

It's worth noting that this only functions in the "Talk" and "Party" channels. DM and Whisper channels work as they have, and tells are still green.
 
 And finally, the extra added goodness
You may be wondering, why use the = method when the /o method is so ingrained and everyone knows it?
 
Well, there's two very good reasons.
1) It's faster....much faster.
2) It can handle longer strings of text than the /o method.
 
On the latter, yes, this means that the limit of approximately 100 characters on a typed text string, whether for language processing or speaking through a summons or familiar, simply does not apply using this new method.
 
To put this another way, gone are the days when you type out some well-written comment through a summons, hit ENTER and have nothing show up in the window because it's 3 characters too long. Gone is the need to limit your phrases when speaking in an alternate language to a shorter message so that the listener can handle it.
 
And did I mention it's faster?
 
So there it is.  It may take some retraining of everyone's habits, but I think in the end, you'll all be quite a bit happier with how it works than the prior self-tell (/o) system.  Self-tells are still going to be an option, at least for now, and both systems work just fine together, but once you use this one, you'll see a significant difference.
 
So enjoy!  And of course, if there are any questions, just ask.

General Discussion / Joining the rank and file :)
« on: June 25, 2009, 09:28:00 am »
Hi everybody!

This is the post to inform I am stepping down as GM. I'm not disappearing from Layo, in fact I hope, RL and remaining DTs permitting, to step up my involvement with Ark as an active and roleplay-enhancing World Leader.

About two years ago I applied for a GM position in order to enhance people's Layo experience, primarily in the AEST timeslot given poor old Dezza was shouldering a lot of that burden on his lonesome.

The main goal of my quests has always been to get players to really think long and hard about their characters. To put roleplay flesh on their mechanics bones. To make players really think about what their characters would do in a given situation, a given moral dilemma. To put them in a place, not always comfortable, not always where they want to be and then see what they would do and where they go. Often my quests have a simple enough premise but I tried to have them involve something that had folks exploring the depths of their character's psyche.

As I write this, I remember one of my quests, early on, that had people magicked into behaving in a manner the polar opposite to their 'normal' sex, class and alignment. This stands out in my memory as a very 'typical me' quest. Hopefully fun. A touch of madness. A strange situation. Minimal set-up ;) A quest that (hopefully) by getting you to do something the opposite of what was normal, made you think more deeply about what was normal. By playing Lawful Evil for an evening, it made you think about what it really meant to be Chaotic Good the other 364 nights of the year.

Anyways, hopefully after two years there are some players who have a better picture of their characters as a result of my quests.

As to why I am resigning, no deep and dark discontent or disparaging remarks against any individual or the GM team as a whole to be found here! Of course there are decisions made which, as an individual, one might not 100% agree. Directions taken that might not have been the direction I would have taken were it my sandbox. Little niggles here and there etc yada yada but I can tell you there are no light decisions ever made by the GM team. No personal grudges. No favourites. No bias. Just a bunch of people that really do strive to provide the best server to be found.

Anyways, see you in game!

* As this has been the effort of some forum RP, I personally thought it was a good idea a add.  See the Rumors post for what got the device added in an IC sense.  Thanks to all who contributed to the RP.
 ** I added this in response to feedback that people thought places to get Bebilith Silk didn't exist in-game. The original location for Spinning Bebiliths is still where it's always been for the last couple of years is still there.  It is perhaps not the most traveled or explored place, though in my opinion, that's kind of a shame. The only clue I'll give is that they exist in an “old” set of areas that used to be home to something very large before it was killed in the last campaign. Both the old location and the new one I've added are actually rather conveniently located to prominent cities.  So put on your explorer's caps and go some place you've never been!
 


 Thanks go to orth, Chongo and Script Wrecked for their contributions, as well as Alatriel and Nehetsrev for their remodel submissions.

General Discussion / Having Fun?
« on: May 16, 2009, 09:51:24 pm »
I hope everyone is having fun exploring and adventuring together with friends this weekend. One of the things I hope to see from this weekend is that players (you) find new friends to adventure with in Layonara, or that some players return to regain the enjoyment of the world. I challenge each of you to go find new players or encourage players to return and enjoy the world. Layonara is built for you, the player/gamer--something we never forget.
 
 We really do have a fantastic GM team that dedicates a whole heck of a lot of time (for 7!! years now folks) to the community.
 
 Not to mention all of the "lowly" programmers and module builders that dedicate their time to grow the world and community *ducks for cover behind the content team....then realizes his mistake...* :)  I really do enjoy dogging on them the very few times I get the chance!!
 
 Hope all are having a good time.

General Discussion / Something To Consider
« on: May 15, 2009, 12:35:20 am »
As and when you perm out a character (after previously taken the newly available One Last Chance Grateful Plea), please, please, please, post something so the rest of us know. Hopefully, if you were traveling in a group, one of your comrades will do this for you. But if you have the misfortune to die alone, it falls to you to blow your own trumpet.

We all appreciate that this is a tough time when losing a loved character (or even two much loved characters within 24 hours *cough* Dorax Windsmith (Anthony Moore) *cough*). However, after you've picked up the laptop from the other side of the room, or balcony, and/or replaced the pane of glass from the window, be sure to let us know.

Unfortunately, by playing here, you become part of the community, and your character(s) becomes part of Layonara, and as such part of its history. And history should be allowed to record the deeds of the fallen and honour their passing.

Regards,

Script Wrecked.

Lament for a Paladin (on the death of Aeronn Kirath)
 
 Alas, a noble soul has gone, his flashing blade is stilled.
His amber eyes are closed in death, his mission unfullfilled.
 
 The Gold he loved, the Gold he served, Oh Gold take him in death.
He tried to save a brother's life, and served with his last breath.
 
 Alas, a noble soul has gone, his loving heart is stilled.
Illsare's sweet dart in vain did pierce, his duty called, he willed.
 
 The Gold he loved, the Gold he served, Oh Gold take him in death.
But comfort send to one he loved and called with his last breath.

General Discussion / Thannks to Funnypseudonym
« on: April 26, 2009, 03:37:41 pm »
Funnypseudonum ran a quest today which I would like to thank him for. There were well over a dozen PCs involved, from low to high levels, traps and encounters.

He outlined the problem (the Toranites had built a facility in which they had placed an 'artefact' that would pacify violent offenders, but they had lost contact with the warders inside the prison and needed a party to find out why), and ported us all to the DM area when we were ready to go.

It ran fluidly and without hitch and that was down to his control and handling of such a diverse party. It was fast, furious and challenging.

Thanks Funnypseudonym, and I promise I will stay away from trapped doors in the future.

Rumour Has It / Rumor from around Vehl.
« on: April 24, 2009, 10:09:57 pm »
Peasant farmers travelling to Vehl for the markets are sadly discussing a recent grisly discovery.  
 
 The farm of one of their elven neighbors from the foothills of the Brechs was found burnt to the ground.   The family dog, know to be quite protective was found decayed but with it's throat slit.
 
 The family which included two young children are believed to have perished in the blaze.
 
 The incident was reported to the Temple of Rofirein for investigation.
 
 
 There are whispers of blame in several directions.  Mentioned are the ever increasing dark elven raids in the area as well as talk of a Lucindite plot of being in league with them.

Rumour Has It / Special Delivery for Captain Trent!
« on: April 19, 2009, 04:04:37 am »
*a cart is left by the sign of Hempstead reeking of death.  Townguards who peer inside are stunned to see that it is filled to the brim with severed dark elf heads.  A note is attached*

Salutations, Captain Trent!

Please accept this offering in commemoration of the Anniversary of the Dark elf invasion of 834.  Such a day in history it was, the defining moment when we as a nation rose from the ashes and rebuilt the city stronger, into the marvel that it has become today.  The City of Gold!  As such, we felt that we should honor our forefathers in the manner most befitting, the collection of no less than 834 of their heads!  834 dark elves that will NOT be infiltrating this fine city.

So celebrate!  Buy a round for your men, pike the heads up on the wall high and add a punctuation to that sign of yours.  Let the children of Wayfare take up a soccer team!  Today is a happy day and many more are yet to come.  Let it be known that Hempstead shall never again be taken, and our walls shall stand for a thousand years more to this day and more!

Fixed Bugs / Law of Layonara out of date - FIXED
« on: April 15, 2009, 03:45:02 am »
Was doing a Query on the law in layonara and stumbled on this.


Justicers:

Official senior representatives of the church of Toran, known as the Justicers, are appointed by the Divine Court, and are responsible for carrying out the will of the Judge and enforcing the law.
The Justicers are well versed in the law (often taught to them by the most devoted of Rofireins followers). The Justicers are beyond reproach, the best of the best that the church of Toran has to offer. Justicers are often chosen from among the veteran ranks of the Paladins, although they have been known to come from other bodies as well. Justicers have responsibilities for districts, traveling from town to town to dispense the justice of the court. The righteous standing of a Justicer is such that they are entrusted to hear trivial matters of law during their travels so that they might keep such matters from bogging down the Divine Court. They are also empowered, in times of crisis, to take charge of local authority and militia to see that law and order are maintained or restored. As the Justicers are to Judges, so too are Paladins to Justicers.

Powers Granted to Justicers:


Carry out the will of the Divine Court of Layonara in regards to punishment.
Apprehend any person believed to be guilty of a crime or wanted by the Divine Court.
Where immediate action is required or a representative of Rofirein cannot be contacted, sentence and execute punishment for minor crimes.
Take control of and direct local authorities where serious crimes are involved or social stability is in jeopardy.


LORE: The Law of Layonara


But as shown in the timeline, then it has been a few years since the Justicers were removed :)

1406
In this year...

The part of the church of Toran known as the Justicers is removed from the church. They are taken in by the Rofireinites and form the Office of Marshalls

Layonara Server / Layonara 3.21.1 Patch Release
« on: April 13, 2009, 07:10:10 pm »
Just a short one:
  • Improve speed/resource impact slightly of Player entrance into the world, and hopefully not have it impact other players as hard as it has been
  • House furniture population is now much more staggered, it will take 40 seconds to populate a house with 200 placeables.  This is to not cause a spike so much for the other players since immediacy of house population is not critical.
  • PCs can now have tool breakage feedback reported to them, this can be turned off with
  • Fixed a bug where once a cnr deposit destroyed a tool it would keep destroying any tools thereafter
  • Fixed an exploit bug depositing gold pieces in a bank chest
  • Fixed a bug with Mass Flesh to Stone
  • Fixed an exploit bug with stacking differently enhanced arrows
  • Fixed a bug with the AFK system continually telling you you are back from AFK

Hello all,

We're sorry to do this, but we have temporarily disabled persistent storage.  This applies to all chests, crates and other containers in player housing and guild halls, as well as bank chests.

Do not worry! Your items are not lost. They will simply be inaccessible for a time while we work out the best way to address these issues.

At this time, we do not have an ETA on when persistent storage will be available again.  We understand that this may be an inconvenience for you, but we assure everyone it will be relatively short-lived. Please bear with us as we seek to improve the situation.

« on: April 06, 2009, 12:51:59 am »

[SIZE=18]
I know while you wait you really want to see what's in store, and I have comments on this update that I'd rather not have you wait for me to think out. The same goes for the credits, so for now I'll let you read these release notes and follow up a little later with a few more thoughts.  [/SIZE]

Unlimited Ammunition Training
  • Instead of shooting arrows, if you train 10,000 of the same type of arrows/bolts/bullets, you will receive Unlimited Ammo for the weapon you train with
  • Training is done by typing /o C train or
  • You must be wielding the ranged weapon you wish to train and the ammunition that you are training for in the proper slot
  • Each training attempts requires an Enchanting Oil, so it's better to save up to 500 then train (since you can now stack up to 500 ammunition)
  • Only Hickory and Mahogany Bolts and Arrows or Light and Serious Bullets can be used.

When cast, a storm of elemental missiles shoots forth towards the target, stopping them in their tracks as they stare in fascination at their impending doom.

           A number of elemental missiles (one per caster level to a maximum of 20) appear and randomly target and hit any hostile creature in the area of effect. The missiles will have an even spread among the target(s) as possible, with a maximum of 8 per target. Random elements pour forth from the casters hands into the missiles, giving an unpredictable result in what type of elemental damage the target(s) will take. The possibilities include 2d8+1 per 2 caster levels of fire, lightning, cold, or acid damage. Additionally, each missile in the colorful spectrum has a dazzling effect on the target(s) and the target struck with the blast of elemental energy must make a will save or be dazed for 1d4 rounds.
