#! System Still Has Bugs, Not Intended For Live Servers Yet !#
#! Please do not pay attention to many of the posts in page 1 & 2 as they are out dated !#

* When the duel starts, all participants will be invul for 5 seconds
* Players now have full health at duel start

16th of July 2008
* Fixed Crash With Region Code
* Regions now initialize on server start up
* Added config option to allow/disallow same ip duels
* The caller of the duel can no longer remove them self

Know Problems:
* The duel rules on combat abilities do not work.

Description:
This system allows players to organize highly customizable duels, these duels take place at fixed locations on your server created by you. This system does not allow players outside the duel to attack/heal people inside the duel. In a single duel there maybe be up to 4 teams, with up to 6 players per team.

Features:
* Allows Players To Organize Highly Customizable Duels
* Create Your Own Duel Arena's
* Up To 4 Teams Per Duel
* Up To 6 Players Per Team

Installation:
This system for many is simply drag & drop(especially if you do not want to make use of the notoriety(health bar color)).
Also it is advised you look at DuelConfig.cs to configure many customizable aspects of the script.

If you find that notoriety is not being handled by this system simply make the following distro mods to Notoriety.cs

At the top of the script add the line

using Server.Dueling;

In the delegate "MobileNotoriety( Mobile source, Mobile target )" add the below code towards the top

if (source is PlayerMobile && target is PlayerMobile)
{
  if (Duel_Config.InADuel((PlayerMobile)source) && Duel_Config.InADuel((PlayerMobile)target))
                    return DuelController.NotoHandler(source, target);
}

and in the delegate "Initialize()" in DuelController.cs comment out the below line.

Notoriety.Handler = NotoHandler;

Creating A New Arena:
1) Create the arena's static layout, for example a square of blockers
2) Now place a duel controller, preferably near by to the desired location of the arena
3) Set all the properties required for the duel controller to function properly
4) Restart server
5) The duel arena should now be active & have its own region Initialized

Organizing A Duel:
1) Type in game "i wish to duel"
2) Use the gump that appears to organize all of your duel settings
3) Click the start button & wait for all other players to accept the rules and participants
4) The duel has began to start, after it has started there will be a 5 second delay in which all players are frozen
5) After this it is time to fight!

Please Enjoy.

Currently it only deals with in duel combat by making everyone in the duel criminal.

Linux eh.

That error makes no sense to me or is it a crash log?

no crash log, thats when RunUO is compiling the scripts, i get that error.

[Lord_Greywolf]

that means that "duel" is being declared twice at the same or lower level

one section needs to be changed to like "duel1" through that section

[Alex21]

It seems to work fine for me, major improvments coming though, will be implementing notoiretry & the ability to create as many duel arena's in the world as you want.

[Suil Ban]

Looks like you've got something going here that may eventually become a nice system. Be sure to cover all your bases, such as factioners dueling with options regarding points loss.

The System Has Been Updates Please Re-Download.

Great New Features Available.

[Alex21]

Updated fixed error with the duel gate gump that would exceed the ArrayList's index and cause a server crashing exception, please re download.

[Alex21]

Please Re Download the updated release.

Read Updates in 1.2

[Suil Ban]

Can players not involved in the duel affect players in the duel region?

[Alex21]

I am working on that now.

Region, there is no regions in this system.

You will need to unpack the rar file using winrar. The script/scripts are contained within the rar file.

EDIT: Problem fixed.

You can download it for free...sorta... @ WinRAR archiver, a powerful tool to process RAR and ZIP files .

[Alex21]

What does everyone use then?

Can they open .zip's?

[Alex21]

I made enough changes to release the modifications, at the moment i had trouble with notoriety, so you must still build a wall around your arena to prevent out side intervention.

Please re download and read "Updates In 1.3".

AoE spells will still affect the duelists. I suggest switching to a region...

[Alex21]

This system was made to be region free.

AoE can only be casted into the arena if you dont put walls around it, look at the screenshot of one of my arena's, This system does not prevent AoE as it will be part of the up & coming rule set.

[Murzin]

windows comes with built in zip program.

i wont install a .rar program because my OS is currently slightly corrupted from a bad norton install and im procrastinating reinstalling my XP. i dont want to install anything if i dont absolutely have to to prolong having to reinstall.
