Me again! With another update! Woot! Now mform has been restructured a bit!

Usage: mform [options] [command] A MUSHcode pre-processor. Options: -V, --version output the version number -h, --help display help for command Commands: run|r <path> run a Project or file. init|i <project> Initialize a new MUSHCode project. help [command] display help for command

to run an archive into a file you would use something like mform run input.mush -o output.mush. Want to start a project that's ready for GitHub really quick? mform init has you covered!

mform init <path> Will take you through a series of questions, while mform init -y <path> generates a new project in the given folder with some default values! It will create the folder if it doesn't exist!

mform honors relative paths, so mform ~/path/to/project works, or within your code you can link your includes like #include ./stuff/archive.mush

Feel free to give it a whirl! If you have Node installed on your system, npm i -g @digibear/mush-format Then mfom!

Thanks for reading!

@HelloProject
No rush. Holla when ya do.

Its been roughly a year since this post and the code is actively still being developed. I've made some decent progress on TeenyMUSH. I've stripped out the mysql support and gone with a strictly memory based formal. Dumps are now a full backup daily with periodic incremental files. This should provide a much smaller foot print while requiring less knowledge on setup. The incremental dumps have brought the size of a days worth of files down dramatically and shortened the window of loss from 1 hour to 5 minutes. Its probably less as Perl will catch crashes and dump any cached data. I've simplifed installation down to downloading the script and a help file and running it. Compatibility with TinyMUSH is growing every day. Myrddin's BBS 5.0 now installs and works. TeenyMUSH even now supports a tmshell functionality for running MUSH code from the shell. Ever wanted to take something you MushCoded and run it like an actual command? now you can. Rename teenymush.pl to tmshell and then issue commands like tmshell <command>. Since there are to many changes changes to discuss, so see http://ascii.dynu.net/changes for more details.

@Selerik This is a bit of a thread-necro, but I just noticed this topic and wondered if you ever continued this exploration or what the conclusion was?

Thank you very much, Seamus! :D

@binks0326 Hey, I'm not certain there's a good translation for the +Events code as I wrote it onto rhost. I remember back in the day when I offered it to Loki on HM, he said that there was no good way to do the trigger()--

Also alert() is a user-defined function, that @Thenomain might have stored somewhere. Not certain.

But @Ashen-Shugar or some of the other rhost peeps might be able to help you. Unfortunately, I never really learned to code in rhost. :(

I mean, if you just want the functionality, Ares literally has this out of the box. If you don't need a lot of system you can run a game from day 1.

This thread flows like the timeline in The Witcher

@surreality Thanks, that'll help me get going.

More updates! @Thenomain has been dutiful in helping me fix formatting edge cases. It's also had a bit of a UI update too! Give it a whirl! (Mush-Formatter) If you run into any issues please drop them at The Github Repo? That would be super awesome.

Thanks!

@chibichibi said in anomaly jobs and myrrdin bboard not working:

TIL that MUX imits how many traits you can set on an object before cutting things off. As such, all of the copy/paste code i've been putting in was NOT fully put in.

TYL that sending too much over telnet in one packet can cut off some of the information, so that only some of your data dump makes it to the game, and that Anomaly Jobs doesn't work if everything isn't installed.

;)

@Thenomain said in Having trouble with Thenomain GMC code:

Thenomain#4633

I added you to Discord.

Also, I was working with Derp, and we were able to fix something things, but then it got borked when trying to fix another. For some reasons stat str* and those things no longer work, and for some reason when setting things, it puts a : before certain values. Hopefully you can help with figuring it out. Thanks!

Here's the decompile (sans enhancement system, at the moment).

Documentation forthcoming, although available for link, deeply buried in other files, on my MUSH listed in the thread main article.

So the US Naval Observatory's API (which I've been using for astronomical data, specifically moonrise/moonset and moon phase) is being moved (or has been moved—the navy's site structure is in disarray right now) and therefore is no longer accessible.

@Ashen-Shugar has pointed me towards moon rise/set code (in Python, woo!), and Dark Sky™ has "lunar age" and with a bit of help from science-math nerd @Tributary I should easily get this translated to illumination...

...but I really want to flip a table right now. Playing data whack-a-mole with data sources is frustrating.
