Hello,
Having realized this is a long-awaited system, I wanted to share this
stall character system that I developed and successfully implemented. The system works with
Maxiguard ; however, once you understand its logic, you can easily adapt it to any guard you prefer.
System Logic
This system allows you to create special characters that can only open
stalls . To do this, you need to choose a character name structure. I used the following structure:
Example:
stall_Promaker
Characters in this build start
at level 5 and
only have the ability to open stalls . If normal players start at level 1, you must specifically start characters with
"stall_" at level 5 so they can open stalls.
Procedures that Need to be Updated
In the following procedures, you need to add the necessary checks for characters starting with
`stall_` :
*_OnSpawnComplete_EDIT
*_TeleportControl_EDIT
*_OnSkillScrollUsed_EDIT
You should add the following check to these procedures:
***Hidden text: Cannot be quoted.***
Also, don't forget to activate the triggers for the relevant procedures via Guard.
Online Character Limit Check
According to Maxiguard's enigma (HWID) control system, the number of characters a single user can create can be limited. For example, if your system has a limit of
PC 2, IP 4 , you should increase this to values like PC 3, IP 6, etc. , to accommodate stall characters .
The following code only allows the stall character to be entered as the 3rd character; if this limit is exceeded for other character types, the operation will be blocked:
***Hidden text: Cannot be quoted.***
Stall Character Control Outside of Main Town
By defining the following commands to run once a minute via
SQL Agent , you can check if the `stall_` characters have left the region you specified. If these characters have left the main town:
Automatic DC discharge
Then it moves back to the relevant town.
Region IDs are examples; you need to adapt them to your own game map.
***Hidden text: Cannot be quoted.***
This prevents stall characters from roaming outside the areas you've defined.
Conclusion
This system allows you to offer your players special characters that can only be used for the purpose of setting up STALLS. It's a particularly functional solution for
Maxiguard users. The system both maintains in-game balance and reduces the risk of multi-account usage.
Have a great time on the forums, everyone!
