Thu Sep 24 00:29:42 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: Am I missing something about the stealth command? Shouldn't my guy be able to sneak up into their guys base?
Thu Sep 24 00:36:28 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: also iirc there's a stealth skill a person needs, to be stealthy in an effective way
Thu Sep 24 00:43:30 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: yeah, from looking at the code, in order to do the stealth command you have to have the stealth skill. Which, check, I have. (class thief)
Thu Sep 24 00:44:03 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: and when I say "stealth on" it returns "you are sneaking" which from EQ I assumed meant I could sneak around hostile MOBs.
Thu Sep 24 00:44:32 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: stealth is good for not being noticed by players
Thu Sep 24 00:45:15 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: ah... so, are the thief styled commands more PVP related? backstab, steal, etc...?
Thu Sep 24 00:45:35 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: right, I was working on our theif class and trying to figure out how they work
Thu Sep 24 00:46:22 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I guess they can pick locks though. That's useful.
Thu Sep 24 00:47:40 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: thief and cleric arent really useful classes
Thu Sep 24 00:48:03 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: theyre just placeholders for the most part, at the moment
Thu Sep 24 00:48:21 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I kind of figured that out from the Cleric's lack of spells, and have plenty of ideas of what to do w/them.
Thu Sep 24 00:50:28 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I guess put in plenty of locked doors that makes lock picking a viable skill?
Thu Sep 24 00:51:49 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: as with any non-primary-combat class, thieves main role is support for combat parties, or roleplay
Thu Sep 24 00:52:36 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: in a single player environment, a thief would need to rely on you having quests that involve not just grinding, but strategy/problem-solving
Thu Sep 24 00:54:08 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: rgr on support. EQ is the only thing remotely similar I've play, and in that the thief was there for the crazy crit hits they got out of backstabbing
Thu Sep 24 00:54:34 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: but it doesn't look like backstab works in combat in Dead Souls? Or am I misreading that code?
Thu Sep 24 00:56:04 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: also, on the way home I wondered about something. did you ever listen to early hardcore rap? NWA, Eazy E, Slick Rick, Public Enemy, Ice T?
Thu Sep 24 01:00:56 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I wouldn't know. Chuck D identified himself as hardcore, that's good enough for me.
Thu Sep 24 01:01:13 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I have to run, but assuming you ever liked something like that then think about this. Forget for a second that Bakshi was a white guy making a hyper-over-the-top
Thu Sep 24 01:02:07 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: ... blaxploitation flick, and ask yourself: If Ice-T made a blaxploitation cartoon movie circa Cop Killa,don't you think it might have resembled Street Fight?
Thu Sep 24 01:02:23 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I'm not sure if that's an argument for or against it. Just a thought I had.
Thu Sep 24 01:02:40 2009

CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: according to my wife it accumulates in your system too, so if you take it again, you'll feel even better the next day etc... That may be wildly inaccurate, but she does swear by claritin over anything else.

Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: if you're looking to make a player invulnerable, give them a shadow that absorbs all damage, like with the jade ring
Fri Oct 2 20:26:38 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: in fact, i think the jade ring is wearable by test chars
Fri Oct 2 20:27:18 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I don't want to make a player invulnerable! I want to keep the buff spell from being too good.
Fri Oct 2 20:28:10 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: buff spell isnt all that great, really, the main problem with it is that its infinitely stackable
Fri Oct 2 20:28:22 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: Yeah I figured that out last night. Fun times.
Fri Oct 2 20:28:41 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: I haven't memorized all the player commands yet, is there a way to see what spells are currently on you?
Fri Oct 2 20:29:07 2009
[dchat]
Cratylus@Dead Souls Dev: oh you mean what spells are in effect on you
Fri Oct 2 20:29:36 2009
[dchat]
CrakAdmin@YottaQuest: no no, not what spells you can cast, but what spells are currently cast ON you.

Ninja@Dead Souls Dev: buff spells i've seen, each additional buffer costs more and more mp
Fri Oct 2 20:37:23 2009
[dchat]
Ninja@Dead Souls Dev: eventually ya hit a limit where ya can't cast any more...or is it different here?
Fri Oct 2 20:38:07 2009
[dchat]
Ninja@Dead Souls Dev: each buffer costs an amount of mp..up to your max.

Kalinash@Fire and Ice: Is there any reason for an object other than the simul_efun object to be able to directly call an efun that is masked by the simul_efun object?
Fri Oct 2 21:23:59 2009
[dchat]
Kalinash@Fire and Ice: any reason other than a poorly designed lib? :P

Hamlet@WWC-west: At 12, the night was too long. I find the night to be a rip-hitting song...

Hamlet@WWC-west: hmph. can't find a link to the one I was singing. I hate it when my references get so esoteric that the internet can't help.

Hamlet@WWC-west: like hepcat or not, but their ska is more traditional than most any other american band...

Hamlet@WWC-west: Sure, Apple does a good job of projecting an image of being fresh and wholesome. But they're not, they're just not. http://www.smh.com.au/technology/biz-tech/apple-claims-woolies-is-getting-fresh-with-new-logo-20091004-ghxe.html

Hamlet@WWC-west: hmmm. I wonder what the expiration date was on that yogurt I just ate.
Mon Oct 5 18:11:13 2009
[dchat]
Hamlet@WWC-west: you'd think that yogurt couldn't go bad, but I'm told that's not true.
Mon Oct 5 18:11:52 2009
[dchat]
Hamlet@WWC-west: I suppose it might be more accurate to say that yogurt can go _worse_. Since it's already milk gone bad.
Mon Oct 5 18:26:45 2009

Hamlet@WWC-west: aw. and here I was saying that Apple might be the evil one, too.

Hamlet@WWC-west: suing people for using logos that might be confused as something similar in shape to an apple (but not, you know, in any way similar to Apple's logo)

Hamlet@WWC-west: nah, I had the task splitting part worked out. it might have needed more work, but it would have been fine for now.
Mon Oct 5 21:30:05 2009
[dchat]
Hamlet@WWC-west: it's the STM-ifying of functions that's just too clunky without compiler support.
Mon Oct 5 21:30:35 2009
[dchat]
Hamlet@WWC-west: I was just partitioning the tasks, rather than having a pool. That way, no need for additional locks.
