  Yeah I'm not aware of anything in Penn/Tiny that would do this. You could also ask the coder to create a global altmail() function that just wraps around mail(). Would only take them a minute, vs. asking them to build something unusual into +finger to let you capture the output, or implement your alt mail check as a global.

  For the longest time, I've had issues where I wish there was a way to save information to a database like SQL, in some known format, and be able to query it. I don't just mean 'just use SQL', but I mean advanced features like... 'related topics', etc. I basically wanted Graph based storage. I tried using oqgraph, since MariaDB gives access to that, and with MariaDB being binary compatible with MySQL, I could use it. But it isn't well maintained, and it tended to crash things. So I dropped that. (Read: Don't use OQGraph for SQL Graph Storage, it's a trap!) I recently actually started work on this anew, and in doing so fixed a bug in PennMUSH's SQL handling that enabled single-return Stored Procedures -- creating Graph based functions in SQL. However, SQL isn't really made for this... with enormous tables, this'll get slow. (Read: Stored Procedures for SQL Graph Storage is the best option at the moment) It's roughly detailed here: http://mush-mercutio.tumblr.com/post/153345784737/pennmush-graph-framework If I finish this, I may at some point rewrite SceneSys to use this kind of storage, and launch some basic things along with it, like a basic BBS and a basic Jobs system as a POC. Being reflected on the MUSH and on SQL, would allow easy grabbing through websites, etc.

  @Thenomain Right, and it works well for a currency system if you're not using it to fuel code. If you take that approach, a global balance would still be nice to have. You'll also need to code an object to handle paychecks, because the paycheck configuration parameter is global and a daily allowance based on signing in. I'd suggest leaving that at 0 and then looking at paycheck as a monthly job, just like it would have to be for rent.

  @skew Good looks good. As a FYI to toss out there, for those who use PennMUSH or TinyMUSH3, it will need adaptation as the @hook code for Penn and TM3 uses the TM3 standard @hook functionality while MUX uses the Rhost @hook functionality. The syntax for @hook is different for those platforms. So in that regard the code should work on Rhost likely without changes as well.

Pardon typos as I'm doing this in the board editing window. Hope that helps.

  @Volund Ahh, I thought someone had told me you'd worked on it. My mistake! @Bobotron Thank you, but I think this idea is going to get tabled for now.

  If you use @parent, you need to lock it against people overwriting it. It's unlikely in games where people can't create their own objects, but a crap shoot otherwise.

  For those unfamiliar what I mean by 'block comments', there are typically two types of comments. One line comments: // This is a quick note And larger blocks of text meant to be only read by you for important information: /* Hello. This is a bit of dodgy code and here's how it works: Blah blah blah Blee blee blee foo -> bar foof -> yay */ The latter is the challenge. If I come up with a better solution than making the game-builder do some manual work, I'll do my best to implement it across my entire code package line, but there's enough chaff that I can't guarantee it.

  @Alzie said in Is there a basics of CG out there somewhere?: @ixokai ...Do whut? 2E removed merits that represented in game items but left the items in game leaving GM's and Wizard's having to find a way to represent said items mechanically knowing that these items don't compare to the merits in 2E because Onyx Path has explicitly said that they do not cost scale against the merits in 2E. The example given was fetishes. These are werewolf spirit relics which used to be represented by a merit in 1E. The merit is gone but they still exist in game. Onyx Path has explicitly stated they do not compare to the cost or breadth of merits in 2E and that there never will be a 'fetish' merit. So now you have to find a way to mechanically represent these things and 'price' them. So...None of what you just said has any bearing on that. Especially not the part here since these things are most definitely still there. I don't have to worry about merits that aren't there because they simply aren't there. That's what notes are for. I don't see why a fetish has a cost at all: its like asking for a cost for a chair for someone who has crafting.

  @Tinuviel said in PennMUSH & DBREFs: @Ashen-Shugar Would this depend primarily on the type of compression they use? Or is it simply a side effect of a large database? I honestly wish I could answer this, but I really don't have one. I've not tore apart PennMUSH at that level and ran it through any sort of performance analysis. I'd first really want to run it through something like valgrind just to see where all the allocations and deallocations were occuring. This could be nothing more than poorly managed memory, but again, without really digging into the code and tagging it with a performance engine debugger all I can do is speculate.
