* I need to keep the documentation up to date. Namely, the GDD is getting out of date.
|
|
* How many lookups is the map system using?
|
|
* Add the serial packet to the network utility

--Naming conventions--
|
|
|
|
I need to define the differences between several different terms i.e. naming conventions.
|
|
I may also need to rewrite some variable names.
|
|
|
|
* User: This is the individual who is playing the game
|
|
* Player: A synonym for a user
|
|
* Character: This is the actual player character in the game
|
|
* Username: This is the name of the player; ususally kept private
|
|
* Handle: This is the name of a character
|
|
* Avatar: This is the name of the sprite used by a character

--ServerApplication's methods--
|
|
|
|
//NOTE: I honestly don't know what I'm doing
|
|
CreateCombatInstance(roomIndex)
|
|
PushCharacterToCombat(charIndex, combatIndex)
|
|
UpdateCombatInstances() //handles all combat
|
|
|
|
--Battle System--
|
|
|
|
CharacterData:
|
|
--stats
|
|
|
|
EnemyData
|
|
--stats
|
|
|
|
CombatInstance
|
|
list<CharacterData*>
|
|
list<EnemyData>
|
|
|
|
Room:
|
|
RegionPager pager
|
|
EnemyFactory enemyFactory --this takes information on the room's data early in the room's construction
|
|
list<CombatInstance>
|
|
|
|
--Requirements--
|
|
|
|
The enemies need AI scripts
|
|
The scripts need to be able to generate other enemies (frog king).
|
|
The characters need a flag to show if they're in a combat instance or not, to signify of they should be unloaded client-side
|
|
On each game loop, the server should envoke each combat instance's update function
|
|
Each combat instance invokes each enemy's and character's update functions
|
|
These update functions increase the ATB guagues
|
|
if an ATB guage is full
|
|
than the stored command is executed
|
|
the players issue their commands during the build up
|
|
if there isn't a command ready, then the player is still choosing
|
|
for the enemies, the stored commands are driven by scripts, so when the enemies need to attack, their attached scripts are called.
|
|
after the commands are called, the ATB is reset to 0.
|
|
etc...
|
|
|
|
--Enemy Tables--
|
|
|
|
enemyTables: The global store of enemy tables. Only accessed by C++ code (unless you want to break something).
|
|
|
|
table.logic: the AI logic. If null, simply attack
|
|
table.ref: reference to the enemy itself, for use by API functions, set by constructor?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
--NOTE: useful for copying tables
|
|
function deepcopy(orig)
|
|
local orig_type = type(orig)
|
|
local copy
|
|
if orig_type == 'table' then
|
|
copy = {}
|
|
for orig_key, orig_value in next, orig, nil do
|
|
copy[deepcopy(orig_key)] = deepcopy(orig_value)
|
|
end
|
|
setmetatable(copy, deepcopy(getmetatable(orig)))
|
|
else -- number, string, boolean, etc
|
|
copy = orig
|
|
end
|
|
return copy
|
|
end |
