how do i edit my classes ? i searched the source coulndt find it , whent into data folder and went to classes but dosnt matter what i change it never works any ideas?

if you modify the classes.ini file WHILE the server is running, it doesnt reconize the change. Modify the file, then start the server. changes should be visible then.

thanks that worked perfectly also thou , with my new stats the players have higher TNL ware can i change the TNL incresse or watever? or should i just lower my guys stats, i dindt know tnl was determind by stats

[Ambientiger]

As you say, tnl is controlled by this code in ms.

Code:

Function GetPlayerNextLevel(ByVal Index As Long) As Long
    GetPlayerNextLevel = (GetPlayerLevel(Index) + 1) * (GetPlayerSTR(Index) + GetPlayerDEF(Index) + GetPlayerMAGI(Index) + GetPlayerSPEED(Index) + GetPlayerPOINTS(Index)) * 25
End Function

In a lot of other sources I've seen the levels are set by the use of an experience/level .ini file using this code instead.

Code:

Function GetPlayerNextLevel(ByVal Index As Long) As Long
    GetPlayerNextLevel = Experience(GetPlayerLevel(Index))
End Function

Where Experience(GetPlayerLevel(Index)) would be the required exp from the .ini file for a player of that level to reach the next.

you can then use it in Sub CheckPlayerLevelUp something like this.

Code:

Sub CheckPlayerLevelUp(ByVal index As Long)
Dim i As Long
Dim d As Long
Dim C As Long
    C = 0
    
    If GetPlayerExp(index) >= GetPlayerNextLevel(index) Then
        If GetPlayerLevel(index) < MAX_LEVEL Then
            Do Until GetPlayerExp(index) < GetPlayerNextLevel(index)
               DoEvents
               If GetPlayerLevel(index) < MAX_LEVEL Then
                  If GetPlayerExp(index) >= GetPlayerNextLevel(index) Then
                     d = GetPlayerExp(index) - GetPlayerNextLevel(index)
                     Call SetPlayerLevel(index, GetPlayerLevel(index) + 1)
                     i = Int(GetPlayerSPEED(index) / 10)
                     If i < 1 Then i = 1
                     If i > 3 Then i = 3
                                
                     Call SetPlayerExp(index, d)
                     C = C + 1
                  End If
               End If
            Loop
            If C > 1 Then
               Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(index) & " has gained " & C & " levels!", 6)
            Else
               Call GlobalMsg(GetPlayerName(index) & " has gained a level!", 6)
            End If
        End If
        
        If GetPlayerLevel(index) = MAX_LEVEL Then
           Call SetPlayerExp(index, Experience(MAX_LEVEL))
        End If
    End If
    
    Call SendHP(index)
    Call SendMP(index)
    Call SendSP(index)
    Call SendStats(index)
End Sub

please note that this isn't a full tutorial on how to do it, you would have to add loading of Experience() into the server and a few other things to get it running, but I hope it gives you some ideas. :lol:

P.S If you want to change your classes without having to shutdown the server, you can use the 'reload classes' option under the 'Database' menu option on the server. :wink:
