CoffeeMud Version 4.6.17

Released on May 6, 2005 6:52 PM

    • The Database Schema has changed Please see the Installation

Guide for information on upgrading a database when the schema has changed.

    • The INI file has new entries They are FACTIONS,

ACCOUNTEXPIRATION, EXPCONTACTLINE, TRIALDAYS, and SOFTWARE. Please add them to your existing coffeemud.ini files, even if you don't mean to use either one.

  1. Babys now "soil" themselves.
  2. New Scriptable Commands: MPWALKTO (optomized version of MPTRACKTO), ISBEHAVE, and MPPLAYERCLASS.
  3. Internal: the spell specification in the crafting skill "text" files has changed slightly. An * now precedes a spell/parameter combo.
  4. New Item folder/group in the package and in the INI file: Software (functionality is still in the workd)
  5. New MXP: WHISPER tag.
  6. New commands: ACTIVATE/DEACTIVATE (again, functionlity is in que)
  7. Scriptable changes: Programs with item name masks can now accept item class id names as well (makes money easier to spot). Also, a BUY_PROG and SELL_PROG now exists.
  8. MUDGrinder Area editor got some 11 direction support and a minor face-lift (Thanks Jeremy!)
  9. ColorSet command now allows black backgrounds.
  10. New Skill: Unbinding
  11. New Archon Item: ArchonManual -- protected from non-archon builders in both the mudgrinder journal browser and command line.
  12. Factions implemented. FACTIONLIST command added to support them. Documentation is incomplete due to the fact that I'm still working on a command line faction editor. Alignment has been changed to a faction, and is defined in your resources directory in a file called alignment.ini. The resources/data directory also contains a reputation.ini file to use as-is or as a template for your own factions. Until the editor is done, read the ini files carefully for instruction. This is also brought to you, with several additions and a few more corrections from yours truely, by the letter J.
  13. New INI entries: ACCOUNTEXPIRATION, EXPCONTACTLINE, TRIALDAYS, along with a support command: expire. This feature is untested, but looked good. Also brought to you by the letter J.
  14. Zapper supports Faction-based masks, as does start and death room ini entries, btw.
  15. Grids now support 11 directions.
  16. Sounder Behavior has new PUSH/PULL triggers.
  17. Death/Flee INI options now include one to lose skill.
  18. Thieves Cant language filled out. Thanks to Xalan of Sancara.
  19. More bug fixes than digits in pi.
