XmlPoints - pvp dueling and challenge game system [RunUO 2.0]

[Hanse the Insane]

Thank you for taking the time to help me, I did as you stated, yet this error came up:

If you have gone through the installation steps, then it is already set up. You can duel or start games by either issuing the commands in the command list in the first post (such as [challenge), or you can do it from the points gump that you can open up using the [checkpoints command.

at the beginning of XmlPoints.cs you will find this

		public static DuelLocationEntry[] DuelLocations = new DuelLocationEntry[]
			{
				new DuelLocationEntry("Jhelom Fighting Pit", 1398, 3742, -21, Map.Felucca, 14),
				new DuelLocationEntry("Luna Grand Arena", 940, 637, -90, Map.Malas, 4),
		};

You can change or add entries as you like.

I'll take a look at that.

(edit)

there may some issue with registering regions during the world loads, so I would make this mod.

Around line 282 at the end of the Deserialize method in challengeregionstone.cs, change this

			// refresh the region
			RefreshRegions();
		}

to this

			// refresh the region
			Timer.DelayCall(TimeSpan.Zero, new TimerCallback(RefreshRegions));
		}

            Timer.DelayCall(TimeSpan.Zero, new TimerCallback(RefreshRegions));
        }

Thanks Arte! Giving that a try right now.

what is the rest of the message? Does it say that they must be in a challenge game region or that there is already a game in progress in the region?

for example "Unable to set up CTFChallenge" when i use [CTFChallenge (this same error with others games). When i use [challenge i see error like "No XmlPoints support"
I make all steps in XMLpoints, and all steps in XMLspawner without steps 3rd,4th,5th,10th and 12th

ah. That means that you havent added the XmlPoints attachment to existing players. Just issue the

[addallpoints

command and you should be set.

Was reading through Milt's new system and thought this was a good feature:

-Support to block multiple IP Addresses from signing up for tournament

Thought this would be good for preventing people that are known for using Speed Hacks and such from participating. Any chance of this feature being added to your system at some point?

Yes, it could easily be added, but with these games people dont get to sign up on their own, they have to be invited by the organizer, so cheaters will soon find themselves unwelcome participants.

(edit)

actually, one thought might be to add a voting system while participating in games that could be used to mark problem players. Their rating would be visible to game organizers and then they could decide whether they wanted them to participate without having the system explicitly block them and so could be used to self police players.
