Description:
UPDATES:
4/21 [3.6]:
/sigh. I DID have the guarded bug fixed, but, when I uploaded it, I didn't upload the working file with the fix. So. Here it is. Tested and everything. (For once)

Also fixed the priority bugs, Wans't a bug with priority, just the region not updating at the right times... I think I tested it all accordingly and stuff and it all seemed to work.. so, test it out for me & tell me!

Fixed bug where Showbounds didn't have the top-right corner piece.

ShoBounds will now tell you teh region priority of the region if you target a mobile.

4/21 [3.5]:
Fixed the other half of Guard Bug. Should be 100% fixed and bug free now.

Added command [RegionBounds . This command will work for ANY Region. Just target a Mobile to display the bounds for that Mobile, or Target a RegionControl to display the bounding areas for that.

That features uses effects and not an actual item to reduce lag and so it's not permanent. This is intended.

Because of this features, Scripters can use the static methods in there to show bounds of ANY region or ANY rectangle2D that they want. Just use Functions ->

static void ShowRegionBounds( Region r )
static void ShowRectBounds( Rectangle2D r, Map m )

As always, Please post any more suggestions or Bugs, Yaada yaada!

4/17 [3.2]:
Allowed the Region to just use the default light level... Set LightLevel to a negative number.

Fixed bugs where the Saved Guarded status would, after restart, become the opposite of what it was before.

Please re-download & remember to Post any bugs or Suggestions :-)

4/14 [3.1]:
Allowed these regions to be Guardable! :-) you can either use any of the commands for normal guarded regins as well as setting it via [props. This WILL save :-)

Allowed resticting of Potions

Allowed restricting of Looting your own corpse, Other player corpses, And NPC corpses.

Allowed setting the light level.

Please re-download & remember to Post any bugs or Suggestions :-)



This used to be a Subscriber-only release but I've now released it here for the public, along with some more minor Bug Fixes.

Please post any suggestions and/or Bugs and I'll try to fix or implement it :-)

Installation:
Unzip and place this in your script folder. To add it ingame, type

[add RegionControl

Then double click & [props it.

I am Brazilian!

Gostei muito do seu scripts é de coisas assim que precisamos e não dos que andam saindo atualmente.

I like very!

I just want to say this is a great script and i love it. I like how your able to set the music for a particular region.

One thing that i think would make it better is if you could make it so that the lightlevel of a region could be adjusted. And perhaps a toggle between the region being guardable or not.

Thank you for releaseing this great script.

Okays, I'll prolyl implement a lightlevel that can be changed & stuff, as far as it being guarded....

I've been a bit hesitant with that cause a), It mitgh cause problems, and b) I don't want this script to be a replacement to good ol' scripting your regions.... Just a supplement to it.

Maybe if I get enough people asking to toggle guarded... I'll look into it.

First off, I would like to thank you for this script. It is going to make my life so much easier. As I have a custom map, editing my regions has been a nightmare.
The guard toggle would be a welcome addition. I have tried to get a new region I had added to become guardable but without success so far.
Once again, my thanks for this script.

[modernschroeder]

WOW! Once and a while someone comes up with something really useful and you sure did just that. : ) You probably put alot of work into this. Thank you!

[Kennyd]

I agree with the other people..
This script will be very useful to alot of people...

That's why I gave you a 5/5

It is very easy to add the regions as guarded your self. I did it this way.

Change line 13 in Custom Region.cs to

		public CustomRegion( RegionControl m, Map map ) : base( "", "Custom Region", map, typeof( ArcherGuard ) )

Now when making a region it will automatically be set guarded.

You can use [toggleguarded to change that or replace Region Control gump with this one.

RegionControllGump

You have to actually be in the region you made for it to toggle guards.

There is a check in to make sure your in a guardable region so the server does not crash.

This is for any one who would like this feature.

That works as a temp fix, but, It can cause other problems with soem of the other features of RegionControl that i'd need to change. Hence it not being in.


Edit: Well, sicne all these people DO want it guardable... I'll work on implementing it later today after I get back home.

Features coming in new Version in a few days that I've done but not tested..

Restrict Looting of Corpses, Restrict Potion use, Change lightlevel & prolly Gonnas allow a check for guarded regions and stuff now.

[Trixie]

Wonderful!
*smiles*
That is very much appreciated.

Ok. It all seemed to work ok for me as the package is right now.

But you know what your going to be doing to it later on better than I do.

[ASayre]

Just so I know while I'm working on this & since I know I cna now restrict certain items...

Any other items anyone wants restricted? I have corpses & potions & ethys.... Anything else?

[Mortis]

Well just athought. As long as you are asking.

Certain weapons? Like artifacts or even base weapons. Like BaseRanged, BaseBashing and BaseSwords.

Well, right now I only have thing that work by double-clicking... I'll eentually ytry and find a way to restrict weapons.. just... Not yet.

[Vini]

Man oh man. This stuff is THE BEST!

Oh and yea we do need guarder and lightlevel check...

[ASayre]

Updated it with the features yall wanted!

Thanks for making the option to make the regions guardable and the option to adjust the lightlevel. Again, Thanks for releasing this script.

[Lynnewellen]

If you are asking for possible things to restrict........................maybe resources like ore or housing.............allowed or not allowed. those are more possibilities.

[ASayre]

Housing restriction is already an option.

[hcker2000]

I didn't see this in there (I could have missed it. its very early in the morning). Could you make a way to set the regions priority that way your could make over laping regions. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about but if not just ask hehe

[Trixie]

it already does this, it has highest, high, medium, low, town, and inn priorities.
*smiles*
Thanks Asayre8, the update is terrific.

[hcker2000]

Cool stuff where can i find the setings for that?

[akrondar]

wow... what a great work you have done!!!



uhmmmm, maybe a damage modifier cuold be interesting, o resistances modificator, by zone i mean... you culd have a zone where magic is very powerfull, and hardcore zones to battle.. or hunting...

just a thought XD XD

[ASayre]

[props ;-) Normally REgions have an int settable as far as priority, but, I wanted it to be an Enum so that way people would know where the priority for it is in relation to the other priorities.

[KillerBeeZ]

totally awsome system, I've seen a good many systems come and go here but this one rates up there with the harvest, shrink (nice job there btw) and pet bonding (nice job on that one too)

a few questions though,

1 - on the props menu, what is "Allow Spawns" ? I figured it meant spawners but while set to false things still spawn.

2 - I believe I need a region controller for each reagion to edit, is this true?

3 - can this be used to edit existing regions such as Britain and such?

I love the fact that you can set the music, I was never a big fan of the uo music til I started adding my own, so this makes it 10 times easier.

So far I've used this to add guards to my vendor mall, the mall consists of a house though which has a seporate region,

4 - if I set the region priority high enough will it override the house region?

5 - if so, how high does it need to be?
