Plague Beast Lord - Beta

[Alari]

Updated: 8/9/2005: Kamuflaro's update applied to files. Archive file updated.

Updated: 8/9/2005: Plague Beast Lord corpses are deleted on death, and frozen Plague Beast Lords are deleted on deserialization. The latter is a quick fix for a reported crash and should resolve the problem. The puzzle doesn't work right after deserialization, and I'm not sure why. I'll take a more detailed look later but this is a quick resolution for now. Please report any further crashes. Only the ZIP has been updated for this fix.

The instructions in this post have been updated for missing "using" statements.


This is someone else's Plague Beast Lord, from the looks of it released somewhere around RunUO Beta 19. I've updated it to work with RunUO 1.0.0.


Please help me test this script. Report any item leaks, bugs, etc. If you notice inconsistencies with OSI behavior and have the time to adjust the scripts, please feel free (Just remember to post them to either this thread or forum =)

got this error what may i be doing wrong here

No idea, Containers should have a CanStore method to override, if you're using RunUO 1.0.0.

Edit: PlagueBackpack is based off Container, which is in the core. So either you're not using the latest RunUO release or you're using a modified core. Update to RunUO 1.0.0 or compare Container.cs from the RunUO 1.0.0 source release with your modified core's source if you're using a modified core.

Edit2: CanStore, not OnStore.. Oops.

Ooooh yay, puzzles! I was wondering when the plague beast lord puzzle was going to appear. Ahhh, those were fun times.

Glad you like. =) Let me know if you encounter any problems. (Also the Water Purification quest that needs the mutation cores hasn't been done yet, if you feel inspired. =)

[Kamuflaro]

Phew... finally got it to compile...
Had to delete the test file... no idea, how to iron out that error I got...
You leck in your instructions, that you got to add 2 references.
using Server.Network;
^In BladedItemTarget.cs
using Server.Mobiles;
^in Paralyze.cs

Ok, now onto testing.

[Kamuflaro]

I got a nice Crash report for you:

I don't know if I fixed it with checking in the rumage for the corpse's name not to be "A Plague Beast Lord Corpse"

Well got another 1 occured after server restart with saved PBL corpses when lifting a brain from a PBL corpse - accesslevel Player.

Update: there are crashorgans too, after you suceed in geting the core. Are you sure it's 60 seconds on OSI? If it is, you need at least 2 men working on that mini quest.

[Alari]

Kamuflaro, I had a huge reply for you, so of course it got lost when I tried to submit it. =/

Basically, I need some more information on what is causing the crashes.

[Kamuflaro]

I honestly do not know, what exactly is crashing me... tCan you try to para a PBL, then knife it and just try to get the core, but dont actually succeed. Then when the PBL died by his inner injuries open the corpse and loot evey organ you see there. That should result in a crash. :/
Well, if you can't figure it out I will have a look at it, but it's your script, so I'll let you have the fun.

All I did was update someone else's script to 1.0.0. I'll make paralyzed Plague Beast Lords be deleted on deserialization and delete the corpse on death.



Edit: Okay, I updated the script to fix the problems you reported.

[Kamuflaro]

whoops, sry I should read more clearly... but yes that should solve the problem

[Kamuflaro]

go to PlagueBrain.cs line 100 and replace the whole void with:

		public void Sangrar(Mobile from)
		{
			Plague_Blood blood_= sangre as Plague_Blood;
			if ( blood_ != null )
				blood_.Hemorragia(from);
		}

That fixes the problem.

[Alari]

Kamuflaro's update applied to files. Archive file updated.

Are you getting errors with the script when you try and use it? Or any severe warnings?


And to anyone who feels 60 seconds is way too short, feel free to modify the PlagueBeastLord.cs file, it's right up near the top of that. Personally, I increased it to 600 while testing. :> (Of course, that's way too long instead of way too short) I'll be testing the script a bit more, to figure out how long it takes on average for me to complete the puzzle. Just keep in mind I am in no way shape or form an "uber" gamer, so my suggested time will be an eternity to a skilled player.
