1d4f075ca7 * Updated and expanded the State system; the API changed a bit. You now have to first *create* the state using
GLOBAL_STATE_TABLE.add_state() before adding commands to it. The state can now be much more configured by including as much or as
little of the normal default commands into it as wanted (so you can now have states which are almost as normal, except some
commands are missing or change their behaviour ... illness or darkness comes to mind). The possibilities here are limitless.
* States now also optionally allow traversing exits as well as using command tables defined on objects.
* States now better handle error messages (so if you try 'look' in a state which does not contain a look command you will no
longer get the 'Huh?' but will be told that the command is not available at the moment).
* All examples in commands/examples/ have been updated to use the new State system. Also added a @test_state function for trying out
the functionality.
* Added hooks at_before_move() and at_after_move(), useful for character based move-restrictions and checks (e.g. movement speed)
* Minor tweaks to the event system; avoiding the counters to go negative should they hit an uncaught traceback.
* Small fixes of typos and minor extra safety checks.

8799a0fd55 Added example of how to handle event errors gracefully without them taking down the server with with unhandled exceptions (this should be handled somewhere above exception too, but it's hard to tell when to do it since twisted is raising them). /Starkiel 2009-04-30 08:23:54 +00:00

a9dbac8aae - Made many small bugfixes to the @parent and @create functions as well as their underlying methods.

- Added an event folder for custom events, including a working example
- Expanded the example commands and parents to include the changes to how they should be initialized.

5a465746c5 Adjust some function names in the script parents to be at_ instead of a_. Also re-designed the scheduling system to be a lot more pythonic and easy to use. Utilizes classes to represent events. Much easier to plug in events from within the game directory now as well. 2009-04-06 16:19:07 +00:00

e3c58aeb6d Fixed startup.bat to work again since the creation of the 'src' folder. Forgot to update the path. Also updated Windows 'Getting Started' guide on evennia.com to be more verbose.
Also did a few really minor formatting fixes and commenting elsewhere.

4bb00013ae Even more death and destruction. A lot more stuff moved to src/. A lot more bugs probably introduced. 2008-06-15 19:38:39 +00:00
