Synthing: Direction/day/moon
Posted: Thu Jun 26, 2014 2:43 am
I just saw in the synthing code the server adds bonuses based on day of week and moon phase.
This is not confirmed as being a part of ffxi, and is based on mostly hearsay and has little to no (proper) testing involved.
Im not saying take it out, but for people that want a real replication of ffxi emulation, how hard would it be to have a simple boolean value in the server config that enables/disables these?
IE:
Moonsynth = 1 //Enables crafting bonus based on moon phase
Daysynth = 1 //Enables crafting bonus based on day of week
Directionsynth = 1 //Enables directional bonus when crafting
Moondrops = 1 //Enables drop bonus based on moon phase
All of the above have been found to not actually exist in ffxi, I was very surprised to see that such a system was hard coded into the darkstar source code without any easy way to disable it via config files. Just putting that out there.
