AnomJobs - Trouble With Installation

There's nothing there for Mux. Could that be it?
No. All of the switches seem to have a default value (the final one) for MUs not listed, which would include TinyMUX.
-
(Thank you. I'd have wasted time trying and failing to fix that.)

The easiest way to install aJobs on a Mux is to install the SGP flatfile. SGP is a good-enough starting package and it comes with BB, aJobs, and MyrdCron installed.

I really do not think it does. When I did my ChimeMUX, I used the SGP flatfile, and I still had to install aJobs.

I don't recall it coming with ajobs either.

@skew
It comes with an Ajob-alike system, but it's not Ajobs specifically. -
Well that is kind of a surprise. Also kind of too bad. I'm not a fan of the system, but it seems just as a requirement as bboards.

Can you show me what you're talking about? SGP comes with like 9 objects on it and nothing more. Will be happily proved wrong.
-
@skew I think they might mean the +request thing with SGP. It's been little awhile so I don't remember exactly what it did, but I think it was more of a 'reminders' style system than jobs.
-
Might be thinking of MUXcore, instead of SGP.

@skew
I'd have to load up SGP in some way, but the last time I had pulled SGP up to use, there was a lot of code already in, and there was an Ajobs-like system, with code, TPs, etc. buckets. I didn't really mess around with it extensively, I just recall it being there and mapping to a lot of how AJobs looked and seemed to function. But it has been a while since I looked at it. It was part of the PennMUSH SGP minimal DB. -
@Bobotron Yeeeeah. We're in TinyMUX here
-
@skew
shrug I would have expected a code suite to be the same, more or less, across the board. Apparently not. -

oh it hurts
-
@skew Arrrghh...
Well, I abandoned ship and fled to PennMUSH. Installed perfectly the very first attempt. Note to self: Listen the first time.
-
That's unfair. If Penn changed the original SGP -- written for TinyMUSH and migrated straight to TinyMUX -- you can't blame the foundation for it.
Maybe because I'm used to using the ChimeMUX fork, that I thought aJobs was part of the base.
TinyMUX has problems, but "SGP isn't consistent" is not one of them. You might as well blame it for having a different columns() than Rhost.
(edit: link to Chime's frankly amazing fork.)
-
@Thenomain The "oh it hurts" was because I know exactly why people use TinyMUX.
I do lament that no one ever put together a good base package to start from.

You mean like MUXcore?
-
@Tinuviel I've literally never seen this before today. After installed MUX a few times now. What the heck! Where were you ages ago??? Why did not one tell me about this?!?!
-
I dunno, MUXcore is pretty old now. That didn't stop me from porting it to Rhost, but I can't see myself using it as the starter db for a new game, either.
