Subsystem Disable Switches

This list of togglable switches allows an admin to temporarily turn on or off certain mud features.

Miscellaneous Disable

Using this field you can temporarily disable a command, ability, expertise or faction in a comma-delimited list.

  • Use COMMAND_(command name), like COMMAND_WHO, to disable a command.
  • Use ABILITY_FULLNAME, like SPELL_FIREBALL, to disable an ability.
  • Use EXPERTISE_(Expertise name), like EXPERTISE_EDUCATING*, to disable an expertise
  • Use FACTION_(faction file name), like FACTION_ALIGNMENT.INI, to disable a faction.

Miscellaneous Enable

The Miscellaneous Enable field allows you to temporary enable a disabled feature, such as adding a race or character class to the starting races/classes.

  • To enable a race use RACE_(race name), like RACE_OGRE.
    • Use the official race name, not the race display, for the race. Race names will not have spaces in them. When in doubt, LIST RACES should provide you a complete list of races available, with their racial categories in parenthesis.
  • To enable a class use CHARCLASS_(class name), like CHARCLASS_TEMPLAR.
  • To enable a specific race to be a specific class, use CHARCLASS_(class name) (race name) (race name2), like CHARCLASS_MAGE DRAGON DEVIL DEMON.

Debug Switches

The DEBUG flag should be used only by developers who want lots of extra logging in order to fix bugs. These values are also comma delimited.

Database Control

There are two options under Database Control, Query Database Engine and Reset Database Connections.

Notes

  • Changes made in the control panel will only last until next reboot. To make permanent changes, modify the local coffeemud.ini file, or the port-specific ini file.
