Title: URGENT! (maybe) Nobat compromise
Post by: Asmodeus on November 14, 2009, 05:11:59 pm
can we PLEASE get some command that allows us to see titles and afk messages but gets rid of all the "Glows with a bright light" crap and all that annoying junk on the screen when you type look?  Thanks

On my list. I can't promise when I will get it in. Depends on my schedule etc.

Just making a post on this. I haven't forgotten about this. On my list of things to do.

Just letting people know I am still looking at this.

need to remove the thirst and hunger from nobat as well. We should at all times know when we need nourishment.

Currently, to me, not having to listen to the thirst/hunger message is the only reason to have nobat on.  Ok, yeah, it makes battle spam go away (which, depending on who you're grouped with can be a good or bad thing - "What do you mean you attacked that thing?  I didn't see any messages").

which brings up another point. nobat should not remove the initial attack messages. That was slopping coding.

We will see how this works out. Not sure if the first attacks were sloppy coding or not.

I'm back on this. So my question is should people see hunger messages as well? I'm thinking about making nobat on / off / limited maybe.

Input please.

Should be a way to turn hunger/thirst off as well - after all, *I* may not be as concerned as some that I'm hungry/thirsty because all I do is sit at recall all day - but it should not be put in with battle spam - it's not part of any battle I know of.  "Oh, hey, let's stop fighting for a second because I'm feeling all hungry and thirsty", "Yeah, me too", both fighters drop swords and share a loaf of bread....  Besides, I'm currently of the idea that hunger/thirst seems to happen very frequently on the mud (though as an IMM most of the time, I don't care), but that's probably because to eat 3 times a day and the days go by so quickly, it has to happen a lot...  Or that's always been my reasoning for it.

It was suggested maybe splitting off the nobat command into a couple of commands. Since nobat is more for battle spam than for showing titles / afk messages / hunger messages. So it boils down to tweaking nobat or changing nobat and adding another command.

it would be nice to have the toggles split for battle spam/affects on others, food/thirst, and afks/titles/pretitles.  Can't think if theres anything else major that should fit into those categories...

Okay,

I have a code skeleton for toggle-able Hunger. Now I need to split Hunger from Battlespam. I might add a toggle for pretitle. Not sure if I will yet.
