Hey, this gives me an idea. Shouldn't it be possible to make a subclass derived from world? I'm trying to make a huge full featured RPG. So far, my code looks like this:

world
RPG

But it doesn't work. Why not? Do I need to say

world
huge_full_featured_RPG

?

If this is a bug, please fix it in the next release of BYOND. Thanks.

You forgot to put var in front of it:

world
var/RPG

That will do the trick. Personally I don't like the combat system you get that way, though.

That's right. But what the heck... I'll be a nice guy and provide a slightly expanded version, based on my wild guess at what a "healing center" might be. This will create an area which will restore 1 hit point to any mobs within it every 10 seconds. Note that you can draw little patches of this area at various points on the map--BYOND will treat it as a single area!


mob/player
var/hitPoints = 12
var/maxHitPoints = 14


area/healing_center
var/healDelay = 100 // 10 seconds


New()
. = ..()
spawn HealContents()


proc/HealContents()
while(src)
for(var/mob/player/P in contents)
if(P.hitPoints < P.maxHitPoints)
P.hitPoints++
P << "You regain 1 hit point."
sleep(healDelay)

Hey, that's pretty good. I'd better download that and convert it into a snippet for my huge library.

Excellent! Be sure to test it, though... I didn't quite get that far. :)

How so? If someone asks a question along the lines, "How can I heal my mobs when they walk into a certain area?", I could immediately refer to Guy's wonderful snippet.

By "library" I do mean "database", though. A giant library of miscellaneous snippets would probably be a little unwieldy to include in a world. Rather, I would have little snippets in separate .dm files. (I already have about 17 or 18 .dm snippets in my C:\Jeremy\BYOND\library\ folder!)

When I upload them onto my webpage, everyone can have a copy...
