How to make houses decay for players?

[adamg6284]

currently my shards set up is that all houses are automatically refreshed. How do i make it decay for players and players only?

 

[Legate]

In your basehouse.cs, around line 27, it should read

public const bool DecayEnabled = true;

yours sounds like it is most likely set to false.

yeah i tried that and it didnt work

 

[Legate]

Do newly placed houses have any kind of decay status to them, or is it just older houses?

 

[adamg6284]

none i tried placing new ones and nothing

i use runuo 2.0 so this may or may not apply

basehouse.cs

public const bool DecayEnabled = true;

make sure that says true

................................................

if ( !Core.AOS )
return DecayType.ManualRefresh;

change to below

if ( Core.AOS )
return DecayType.ManualRefresh;

........................................................................

if ( this == newest )
return DecayType.AutoRefresh;

change to below

if ( this == newest )
return DecayType.ManualRefresh;

................................................................................

adjust total time from placement to collapse here

if ( (acct.LastLogin + TimeSpan.FromDays( 90.0 )) < DateTime.Now )
return DecayType.Condemned;

....................................................................................

to remove the reference of grandfathered from the sign gump go to housegumpaos.cs edit or comment out the section like below...

switch ( house.DecayType )
{
case DecayType.Ageless:
case DecayType.AutoRefresh:
{
AddHtmlLocalized( 20, 250, 380, 20, 1062209, SelectedColor, false, false ); // This house is <a href = "?ForceTopic97">Automatically</a> refreshed.
break;
}
//case DecayType.ManualRefresh:
//{
// AddHtmlLocalized( 20, 250, 380, 20, 1062208, SelectedColor, false, false ); // This house is <a href = "?ForceTopic97">Grandfathered</a>.
// break;
//}
case DecayType.Condemned:
{
AddHtmlLocalized( 20, 250, 380, 20, 1062207, WarningColor, false, false ); // This house is <a href = "?ForceTopic97">Condemned</a>.
break;
}
}

may not need editing. but i think my shard "started" out AOS or ML I edited it along with the other tweaks. Hope this helps.

I did not find a way to make the door refresh the house when opened like double clicking the sign but it seems to work thus far. players just need to know to double click the sign to refresh.

yeah i was wondering about that, thank you btw the way. thanks a LOT! hey, one more thing. i can't seem to find where you edit the amount of time it takes to decay. i want to set it to like 3 months. am i looking in the right file???
