Here's a port of my branch.

[Racsr]

Much thanks to the DSP team for all their hard work. Thanks to all other contributors as well. ^^ Some of this stuff comes from other patches found on this forum that were never put on the SVN. Thanks to those contributors. Below is a complete(?) changelog from the current Public SVN 2121 to my branch. Since this is a complete port of my branch that has been following DSP since inception (I used to work on pXI...) and undergone several adjustments along the way (including retail-ization to make this patch) as DSP caught up I cannot guarantee this patch will work at all and provide no warranty, expressed or implied.

I understand this is way to much to end up on the SVN any time soon and some things may not even belong (there are incomplete quests drafted here...) but my hope is only to provide inspiration and ideas, bring some issues and features to light and let the community of server admins play around with this one. So, happy adventuring!

If a dev would like any of this stuff to be broken down into a focused patch, refined and tested for submission to SVN just let me know and I'll work on it as time permits...

As it goes I was looking at the COP code in the core. Theres an error preventing mission status from showing. Will probably look at it again tomorrow. All this stuff is awsome^^

[Ayame]

whoa this is a big patch looks awesome though ^^ hope it gets added.

[PrBlahBlahtson]

>CoP
You have my attention

Index: scripts/globals/mobskills/Spalsh_Breath.lua

Splash*

>Maws
May not be trunked. I tried storing it as a char_var, too Bluekirby0 made a neat bitmask function for LUA if you'd like to migrate to that, but at the time, he was pushing for a bitmask stored in one of the character tables. Not sure if that stance remains.

+ if(csid == 0x0016) then
+ player:startEvent(0x0024);
+ elseif(csid == 0x0024) then
+ player:startEvent(0x0025);
+ elseif(csid == 0x0025) then
+ player:startEvent(0x0026);
+ elseif(csid == 0x0026) then
+ player:startEvent(0x0027);
+ elseif(csid == 0x0027) then
+ player:setVar("CopStatus",1);
+ player:completeMission(COP,ANCIENT_FLAMES_BECKON);
+ player:addMission(COP,THE_RITES_OF_LIFE);
+ end

XD If that doesn't look familiar. I got annoyed and tried the same thing. I was hoping you'd puzzled that problem out, but it seems it remains unsolved. Giving the cutscenes a parameter (such as another CSID) may fix the "stuck at a black screen" problem.

>CoP level caps comments
This seems like a good place for settings.lua to gain an addition, but that's just my opinion. I'm nothing but a noisy user.

>Fixing merit CS on Nomad Moogle in Ru'Lude
Thank you. Off to fix mine now.

>if((mLvl >= 20 or mLvl >= ADVANCED_JOB_LEVEL) and ChocobosWounds ~= QUEST_COMPLETED) then
...heeey, I recognize that code

Not sure how the devs will feel about the lack of local variables in LUA.

+ `lanip` int(10) unsigned zerofill NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000000000',
+ `wanip` int(10) unsigned zerofill NOT NULL DEFAULT '0000000000',

I approve, trunked or not.

Well shit, now i have something to do for the holidays. Link let's talk about this on monday

haha, well, happy holidays!

>Maws
May not be trunked.

Ahh, yes. These scripts have actually been with me for a very long time. I agree a bitmask would be better and will go though and update them. I'll do this after the holiday week if someone doesn't beat me to it!

Yeah, this is an annoying one... However, with the updated event code I wrote for core (also in this patch) the way it's scripted there will function and complete the entire event successfully.

>Fixing merit CS on Nomad Moogle in Ru'Lude
Thank you. Off to fix mine now.

Yes! I was very happy when I figured out the Limit Breaks. Some of the CS NPCs you'll be missing are in this patch. This patch also adds the getMerit method specifically for that entire quest line. I hope you or someone else can find the time to complete the whole series. The groundwork is there!!

I finally had a chance to test this patch and it did require a little tweaking to get the server to compile once it's applied. Missing the header definition of LoadNPC() and lan_maskip in the config struct (which I added just to make this a little more public, obviously I just hardcoded it for my self.) Also the mission.lua has a few stray end statements. So, as a whole it remains just to pick at like you guys clearly are (exciting! ) Unfortunately I don't have time to create and upload a fixed version today but I will try to make it happen.

Glad there is a few helpful things here! Let me know if you need any help!

[PrBlahBlahtson]

Came back to add that I really like the idea of a GM command that force-loads NPCs from the table. The quest/mission status commands could also be useful, rather than hacking the nearest NPC to do what you need to.

Ok cool^^

Racsr:
Awsome stuff. I added the mob checking code & vertical agro range to svn.

I like your bit shifting ect with checking the quested WS's, amazing.

Looks like theres alot of content from pxi.

Apart from that, alot of stuff in there to go through.

I would like to open CoP soon.
