GMCP Support

Submitted by Jorachim of Imperian on Sun, 2012-08-05 04:40

Game:

Imperian

Client Type:

MUSHclient

Script File:

Imperian_GMCP.xml

Modified version of the GMCP Plugin for Aardwolf.

To get out the GMCP data, put the following function in your character script.

August 18, 2012: Fixed so it updates info in GMCP and not overwrite. For example, Char.Stats was being wiped every time XP was given.

August 12, 2012 (again):

Updated to version 2.0. It's now a lot smarter about the things it does. Doesn't simply store values, but now adds/removes items and rift components, holds a list of skills, etc.

function getGMCP()

 gmcp = {}

 assert(loadstring(GetPluginVariable("62bfc6193517f6e5ac11017d", "gmcp")))()

 return gmcp

end

More info on GMCP here. This script, by default, turns on all options. If you don't want item updates, chat channels, etc, edit the plugin.

If there's an easier way, let me know at codeacula@codeacula.com. This likely works for all IRE games, but since I've only tried it on Imperian that's what I'm marking it as.

looks neat

i need to have a closer look at this gmcp stuff for my client

Iasmos of Lusternia

Hmm

There are other ways to get this information that are probably more straightforward, but if it works for you, okay.

Jorachim of Imperian

I'll take any suggestions if you have them. I couldn't think of any other way to get the data in. Was hoping to figure out a way to auto-set the GMCP into the world. Outside of that, I don't know. It's been invaluable to the mapper I'm working on.

Jorachim of Imperian

I did find a method of calling an alias in the world to automatically set the data, but, honestly, I wanted to have to provide as little explaination as possible.

Barrin of Lusternia

yeah

as you say, if it works it works!

Barrin of Lusternia

my bane

I could never figure out how to do it, hence why I have a system!

Trae of Lusternia

Nice

It looks like it could be useful

Hataru of Achaea

What is this I don't even.

Tyehr of Achaea

Still looks very useful.

Jorachim of Imperian

Hate All Of You

I hate you all for your general comments to earn credits.

I hope your arm hairs get burned off because you're playing around a grill too much and chicks and/or dudes won't talk to you when you go out the next night.

Rynrth of Lusternia

Aw, here's a hug.

Gmcp ios useful, but I would have thought that Mushclient would have integrated it by now

Not that I can tell. And it doesn't seem like it will be, from what I can find.

Rasnek of Achaea

Two questions

Does it only work on mushclient? and what does it actually do?

Jorachim of Imperian

It does

Right now it only activates the GMCP protocol and stores the data. You can write your own code/plugins to use it, like I'm doing for a mapper that enhances the provided mapper in Imperian.

Habikiya of Lusternia

Thanks!

Rolo of Achaea

Delete gmcp please.

Iasmos of Lusternia

Hmm

While there are a few points on the downside caused by GMCP, the upside is pretty good, too.

Jorachim of Imperian

Updated to fix an issue with it replacing data when it shouldn't, wiping it out.

Aisling of Achaea

Hi Jorachim!

So what is this script for? I know mudlet has gmcp in it already, but I saw this is for MUSH so maybe I already answered my question :P I never tried MUSH before because Mudlet is always recommeneded.
