This page is intended for the discussion of HOW to build a GenClass, not a listing of the classes themselves (which should be available in the player CLASS page). Classes can be created through the command line (CL) or through the MUDGrinder.

CL Class Creation

Using the CREATE CLASS <CLASSNAME> command, you can create a new GenClass. If you use CREATE CLASS <CLASSNAME> on an existing StdClass, it will convert that class to a GenClass. This may result in loss of some special functionality of that class, so use with caution. Using MODIFY CLASS <CLASSNAME> will let you edit an existing GenClass.

Number of Class Names

This field allows you to specify different names for the class at different levels.

• The default is one.
• Increasing this number above one will add additional fields for Class Name and Class levels for each name.

Class Name

This field is the name of the class at level 0.

• The default should be the same name as the GenClass name.
• If Number of Class Names is greater than one, there will be multiple class name fields, and subsequent minimum levels for names 2 through x.

Level Cap (?)

This is the maximum levels that a character can gain in this class.

• Use '-1' to denote the server parameters, or some other positive interger desired.

Base Class

This field is used to denote the BASE CLASS type. This will affect various zappermasks.

Availability

This determines the types of world settings where the class is allowed.

• Use 'Unavailable' to prevent players from gaining access to this class through normal means.
• Skill only means that it can be attained through certain skills (such as Wish) but not normally trained.

HP/Level Formula

This field uses MATH_FORMULA for generating hit points for each level gained.

• Example: ((@x6<@x7)/3)+(1*(1?10))
• For this equation the following parameters are available:
  • @x1: Players current class level, @x2: Players adjusted Strength, @x3: Players Max adjusted Strength, @x4: Players adjusted Dexterity, @x5: Players Max adjusted Dexterity, @x6: Players adjusted Constitution, @x7: Players Max adjusted Constitution, @x8: Players adjusted Wisdom, @x9: Players adjusted Intelligence

Mana/Level Formula

This field uses MATH_FORMULA for generating mana for each level gained.

• Example: ((@x4<@x5)/6)+(1*(1?3))
• For this equation the following parameters are available:
  • @x1: Players current class level, @x2: Players adjusted Wisdom, @x3: Players Max adjusted Wisdom, @x4: Players adjusted Intelligence, @x5: Players Max adjusted Intelligence, @x6: Players adjusted Attack Attr, @x7: Players Max adjusted Attack Attr, @x8: Players adjusted Charisma, @x9: Players adjusted Constitution

Prac/Level

Determines how many practices per level the class will earn.

• Default is 3. This value should be adjusted based on average skills gained per level vs skills qualified per level.

Move/Level Formula

• For this equation the following parameters are available:
  • @x1: Players current class level, @x2: Players adjusted Strength, @x3: Players Max adjusted Strength, @x4: Players adjusted Dexterity, @x5: Players Max adjusted Dexterity, @x6: Players adjusted Constitution, @x7: Players Max adjusted Constitution, @x8: Players adjusted Wisdom, @x9: Players adjusted Intelligence
