I am more or less stuck at the moment with the Training Halls. Here is what I need to be changed/finished/added:
- All classes that cast spells need to have at least 1 spell available to them immediately for spell training tutorial. A lot of classes do not have spells immediately available to them.
- In order for me to do prefedit and feats tutorials, I need a way for the mobiles to communicate with the players while they are in the prefedit/study menu. It seems that it puts that player in a different playing state. Say, tell, %echo%, %send% do not work. %send% %actor% would be the optimal solution if possible.
- I know now that the help file system has been changed, we will start to see drastic changes. What I see as a priority: HELP CLASSES (doesn't even exist). HELP PALADIN shows petition as the source of memorizing magic, not chant.
The help files aren't as important as the first two items. I am really motivated right now to get this zone done and if getting #1 and #2 sorted out, it will enable to finish the two biggest and most complex tutorials in the entire zone. After those two are done, the rest of the zone will be easy mode.
One final thought regarding learning spells. I am going to add a scroll for a Wizard to learn at the end of the tutorial. Is Wizard the only class that will be using a spellbook? Also, I would like to organize the scrolls that players can scribe to a book. We can use the training mansion or another zone, but I would like to have every scroll that is able to be scribed be in order in one location, so we aren't creating duplicates. It will be easier to find them once we start creating quests that offer them as rewards or have enemies that have them as drops.
Well before I ramble on and on, I will stop here. Let me know what can be done, or can't be done.
