8074617285 Largely rewrote and refactored the help system.
The help entry database structure has changed! You have to resync or purge
your database or your will get problems!

New features:
* Help entry access now fully controlled by evennia permissions
* Categories for each help entry
* All entries are created dynamically, with a See also: footer calculated
  after the current state of the database.
* Indexes and topic list calculated on the fly (alphabetically/after category)
* Added auto-help help entries for all default commands.
* Only shows commands _actually implemented_ - MUX help db moved into 'MUX' category
  which is not shown by default.
* More powerful auto-help markup - supports categories and permissions (and inheritance).
* Global on/off switch for auto-help, when entering production
* Auto_help_override switch for selectively activating auto-help when developing
  new commands (like the old system).
* Refactored State help system; no more risk of overwriting global help entries.
* State help now defers to main help db when no match found; makes system more transparent.
* State help entries also support categories/permissions (state categories are not
  used much though).

Other updates:
* Added more commands to the batch processor
* Many bug-fixes.

7f7306a6e4 - Implemented permission system management inside the game
- changed @chperm to @setperm to avoid confusion with channel commands
- added @setgroup command for adding user group permissions
- Moved permissions/group setup into settings file to allow admins to tweak without going into evennia engine.
- Add all new players to default permission group (defined in settings)
- Defined a basic group hierarchy, removed permission 'genperms.builder' in favour of a group named builders instead, containing all relevant permissions.
- Filtered out all django's automatic permissions in @setperm/list to make permission system more controlled by admin.
- Probably fixed bug that caused new users to not be signed up to channels (more testing needed)
- Added Exception handler in unloggedin method create, this was killing tracebacks upon user creation.

4ca5a4a7bf Revamp how commands are loaded. This will now allow for easy addition of custom commands and over-riding existing Evennia-supplied commands. 2009-01-27 15:21:15 +00:00

7ff97599be Move standard_objsearch to Objects.search_for_object. Also make sure @alias only accepts alphanumeric strings. 2009-01-25 03:11:52 +00:00

9407eb0ee4 Huge overhaul in the way objects and sessions are used with commands. We now pass all commands through objects (aside from unlogged commands), which means session.msg() is now deprecated for any use other than unlogged out.
As a side-effect of all of this, logging in more than once acts as behaves now. Also, this will allow things/rooms/exits (IE: not players) or un-logged in players to run commands or be forced to run them via @fo. All of this will bring us more in-line with MUX behavior.

16e494f508 Fix HelpEntry model search field in the admin to search for topic name and the topic's text. Add missing search types to @search, aside from 'powers', which will need to be added once we figure out how powers will work. 2009-01-24 03:50:37 +00:00
