Re: @Irming Release the Pangaea script
I'll sign my name to this, I'm sure work needs to be done but, that'll give a chance for stuff to get done.
I can already state that the AI stuff needs to be reworked to give mobiles a real life feel, giving them the ability to pathfind, a better handle on mob stats, updating their stats to a more randomized set of numbers so for instance, a shabooli witch doctor has similar but not the exact same stats as another shabooli witch doctor.
Merchant stuff so long neglected or as usual band aided over.
Improvements and fixing bugs and ultimately which would or should be the first goal of anyone, pushing Pangaea into the 099 pol core, it won't be an easy task but it's a hell of a lot simpler than the 095 to 096 conversion.

Re: @Irming Release the Pangaea script
I don't think releasing scripts would keep it alive. I think you'd get several people trying to start their own version of pang, splitting the community...? I dunno though.
As a former dev for pangaea, I wouldn't be opposed to helping out here and there if needed either.

Re: @Irming Release the Pangaea script
I can see that, I personally think however that most people would give up on that endeavour quickly if they started a shard, most people just think get the server start her up and you're good to go, it's not that simple.Kevin wrote:I don't think releasing scripts would keep it alive.

If blckfire got permission from Irming to drop me the script base I'd help out but I'm not interested in scripting stuff exclusively for Pangaea on a script base that is nothing like Pangaea if there is not a little give here, makes me feel like I'm being used and I'm just not interested in that.

Yes.. someday this shard will disappear for good. I want my own copy when that happens.

Shit might aswell already be considered gone, thus we want a version of a script for funnsies. Pre-Mayor system if possible.Mulva wrote:Yes.. someday this shard will disappear for good. I want my own copy when that happens.

The older the better. I want a copy from before the first itemwipe so I can rifle through everybody's secures.Johnny Walac wrote:Pre-Mayor system if possible.

Re: @Irming Release the Pangaea script
Hear hear, I have had this want for ages, to see how my characters were (almost 10 years ago?). It would be nice to see the stuff of the past even if it were not some permanent thing.Mulva wrote:The older the better.

Isn't possible to create a virtual machine hosting Pang, in an artificial environment of course so you could "play with yourself"? This would be maybe an alternative to the less tech people because setting up a shard would be more complicated than just running a VM?
