[nodebb-plugin-openfantasy] Full-fledged RPG system for NodeBB

@psychobunny
I did a little test today on the battle system and noticed that the npc and my character were always missing each other. I was finally able to flee from the battle after a few failed attempts. I'll do a clean install tonight and try again.

On another note, thanks for your hard work with this project. I know it's been a few years and I'm excited to see it back.

One thing I wish the old system had that maybe this one can, is the ability to customize what abilities, classes, names etc in the system. So, the term "Spirit Points" I could change in the admin to "Life Points" . If that makes any sense.

@psychobunny excellent, it was you the author of these mod phpBB !!

haha don't. I haven't ported over the NPC damage code yet, so that's why your battle's a stalemate. You might be missing a lot if you're using your bare fists though. Will wrap this up on the weekend

Yeah, sounds good to me. It's something I want to write for NodeBB actually (the ability to customize language strings in the ACP), so it's something I'll do higher up that will apply to ADR as well

Well once I finally got my site up and running I tried to install the rpg mod again and it kills the site

Correction, when I did the npm install from the console it is fine now. Installing it from the admin page somehow messed it up.

I almost installed. Hope it will be ready for production soon.

Hey all, haven't touched this last weekend although I wish I could! (was really busy with other stuff) Just letting you all know its still on my mind, and I can't wait to finish this. You should see my whiteboard

Steve

Whoops I got so excited I didn't read the "don't install it yet" part.

Too late.

I'm still going to screw around in it Sounds like a blast.

psychobunny

Ah it sucks right now, I need a few more weeks to get this working properly.

There was something like 300+ plugins developed for the original mod. I haven't mass-emailed the developers just yet but I'm hoping that a few of them will swing by and port their stuff once I get this finished. Kinda cool that a few of the above were already part of the NodeBB community but knew about ADR from before!

Just goes to show you never know who is lurking on the 'net

I had a game on my old BBS that was similar. It's the simple games that become the most addictive.

psychobunny

I think the most famous BBS game is probably LotGD (original LoRD), maybe that's the one you're talking about

Legend of the Red Dragon was pretty good.

The Pit was dominating!!!

psychobunny

Never got into LoRD but definitely did a lot of work with LotGD, loved that game, spent a lot of time adding cool stuff to it once upon a time

I remember at midnight every night my BBS lines were slammed with TradeWars, LORD, The Pit people wanting to rock out their daily turns. I think I still have my original paid copy of The Pit somewhere on 3.5" disk or maybe even 5.25" somewhere. The mail order wait back in the day to get these things was insane compared to the click and own world we have now!!

Assuming wow I was a 60 rogue speced in subt. Loved torturing the guild from the comic book website I forgot their name. I chased the sites owner and his wife everywhere killing them over and over to the point my name was being cursed on their forums

Pablo Macaluso

You want i can translate it !

Oroton

Where can you download this version, No link to it on OpenFANTASY Either??

Thanks @psychobunny

a_5mith

@Oroton I don't believe it's close to being done, but in the first post is a link to github, on the right of github, you'll see a small bar with a link, copy that, then clone it into your node_modules using git clone url replace URL with the link you copied.

It will then appear in your plugin menu on nodebb.

Don't forget you also need the cash mod.
