====== Unique Apartments ? =====

There are a few permanent apartments available throughout [[:Bigworld]]'s towns and cities, \\
being available to every player; but there are also regions and towns, that only have a couple \\
of "unique" flats and chambers available, meaning: first comes, first takes. \\
These "unique" estates can add a bit of excitement to the game, when the number of users \\
is fixed and below - let's say a dozen. \\
But on world wide reachable servers, with [[:player_commands#hiscore]] lists being completely filled \\
and new players need to reach level 32 and more to be listed in the TOP-1000, these "unique" apartments \\
are too few !
 
What is the secret, that a player has an ' _path_apartment ' file inside the //var/crossfire/players/<player name>// \\
directory, and other files inside 'apartment' directories of other cites in the maps package do not show up there ?

The answer is confusing, but it is the **unique** attribute of the EXIT archetype leading to the apartment map file.

Whenever the EXIT has the **unique** attribute set to **1** , then the player is getting an "unique" file ( copy ) \\
of the map, the exit leads to, inside the //var/crossfire/players/<player name>// directory of the [[:server]] . 

Whenever this //unique// field is missing or set to //0// ( zero ), inside the arch-attributes-end block \\
of an exit type of a map file, the map is not copied into the player's status directory on the server and stays "globally unique" .

----

====== Cities ======

Cities that have only a fixed amount of apartments available are [[:world:Stoneville]] and [[:world:CityDeClouds]] . \\
There the player on the [[:servers:Metalforge]] server will as of today only be able to drop large amounts of gems \\
to be swallowed into the nirvana just for a gate to open and no generator implemented to give something for the sacrificed monetaries. <- :!: BUG !
 :-( 
 
What to do ? \\
Implementing it at home @ localhost !

----

===== Stoneville =====

Stoneville has four / five permanent apartments available : house1, luxhouse, ([[#Apartment2|apartment2]]) , apartment3, [[#Brxzl's Home|housebrxzl]] . \\
Stoneville's [[#Adventurer's Guild]] has a few permanent chambers available, but offers only one key each chamber.

Goto [[#End of Stoneville World Map]] .

The Luxory Manor is accessible from the world map tile //world/world_102_127// \\ 
and adding a diff for one added //unique 1// line would probably be too much :
<code conf>
arch grass
x 49
y 22
end
arch house_1
name Luxory Manor
slaying /dragonisland/luxhouse
hp 7
x 49
y 22
unique 1
end
</code>

Three / four permanent apartments are accessible from the world map tile //world/world_103_127// , \\
where [[#Apartment2]] could be also treated non-player unique : \\

**Note:** There are two approaches for the //apartment2// possible : \\
total player-uniqueness as it would be in above diff, \\
and partly globally / partly player-unique .

== End of Stoneville World Map ==

Goto [[#Stoneville]] .

----

==== Brxzl's Home ==

Brxzl's home has several stairs leading to other storeys on the same map file. \\
These stairs act as exits, and need to be set **unique 1** too. \\
A workaround could be considered by making the slaying field relative path inside the new location as \\
''slaying _dragonisland_housebrxzl'' , but this works when the map finally is copied into the player_name/ directory. \\
The map files stay in RAM for seconds and minutes, before they will be copied to the player's directory, \\
and until then, the stairs would complain being "closed" .

Goto [[#End of Brxzl's Home]] .

So, file //housebrxzl// needs to be patched also : \\
''diff -p -C 7 /usr/games/crossfire-1.60.0/share/crossfire/maps/dragonisland/housebrxzl /usr/games/crossfire-1.70.0/share/crossfire/maps/dragonisland/housebrxzl''

==== Key Sale House ==

The Keysale house in Stoneville offers a few keys for the Stoneville Apartments. \\
The Key's "nrof" is only '1' , and whenever the player looses the key, \\
on a reset random map for example, the key will be lost forever. 

The Altars are not set unique, nor the floor, they stand upon; \\
meaning being available for droppings after next map reset. \\
But the Keys and the floor tiles below them have //unique 1// set, \\
meaning, there will be no new keys after next map reset. 

Overall the keysale map file in the dragonisland/ directory is a "piece of !*#grr%!!*" . \\
Non-functioning altars with no purpose and out-of-view areas behind unused gates.

Jump to [[#End Keysale]] .

This is a longer ''diff -p -C 7'' , drop it into the dragonisland directory, \\
and run  ''patch <patchfilename.diff'' .\\ 
When patch complains, enter the basename : keysale .

==== Adventurer's Guild ==

The Adventurer's Guild in Stoneville offers 5 small chambers \\
of the size of 2x2 tiles to the player, \\
and one slightly larger chamber with 3x2 tiles. \\

All these six rooms would need their own map files. \\
The five smaller chambers are all the same in shape. \\
But the internal values differ each of these five room files for the \\
exit target point **hp** meaning **x** on the main advguild map file \\
and the //name Private Chamber 1// line.

Goto [[#End of Room Map]] . \\

Here is now first the map file for the first of the small rooms, \\
slightly more than 100 lines long for "just" 16 ground tiles, \\ 
named as //dragonisland/advengld/priv_chamber1// : \\

The map was created with the X11 [[:crossfireeditor#Crossedit]] editor version 1.10.0 \\
and manually added missing "standard" attribute entries found \\
in map files of version 1.70.0 .

**Note:** The player does not show up on tile x 4 , but x 5 on the \\
advguild main map, because the "check_inv" arch could leave the door open, \\
when the player leaves his chamber, thus enabling other players and the \\
randomly moving NPCs to gain access to that private room, when the gate is left open. :-)

Up to [[#Adventure's Guild]] .

==== Advguild Map Adjustments ==

When we have the priv_chamber1 file ( and adjusted priv_chamber[2-5] ) in the \\
//stoneville/advengld// folder, then the main guild entry map file "advguild" \\
needs to be fixed to enable the uniqueness of the priv_chamber* maps.

Two invis_exit archetypes are added, \\
the chamber-side check_inv disabled by commenting, \\
the keys made non-unique and set //nrof 3// , so they \\
are getting generated new each map reset and thus these chambers \\
becomming available again to other players.

And this code needs to be done for the other 4 small chambers \\
and the 1 larger chamber; with adjustments to the slaying filename \\
and disabling the //unique 1// for the keys to these chambers.

**Note:** The key slaying attribute value has been changed to //stvadvgapart[1-6]// therefore, \\
since it is four times "guildap"[1,2,3,6] and two times "advap"[4,5] , \\
to make them more unique inside the whole maps collection.

**Note:** The prices for the altars are not adjusted, since 2000 goldcoin \\
for the largest room is actually the cheapest price for all of the 6 rooms; \\
guessing that it is more difficult to collect 5 dragon scales than 2000 gold coins.

Up to [[#Advguild Map Adjustments]] .

==== Apartment2 ==
The house //stoneville/apartment2// offers two different rooms : \\
One chamber for 10 gold coins and a permanent apartment with 4 unique keys.

Here are two ways possible to make that map unique to each player: \\
Either by setting the EXIT entry from the world_X_Y map "unique 1" , \\
as it is done in the diff for the world map 103_127 for [[#Stoneville]] , \\
or to use the approach described in the [[#Advguild Map Adjustments]] section for the \\
permanent chamber(s) and unsetting the uniqueness of the four available keys and altar, \\
making this map partly player-unique and partly globally "unique" .

**Note:** The default 'gooldfloor' approach in the map for the non-permanent room \\
with the cleaning woman inside to the right does not work for me. :!: Bug ?


----

===== City De Clouds =====

The City de Clouds has several types of apartments available.

Already player-unique are the maps
  * /mlab/citydeclouds/cdcapart1
    * that has unneeded /mlab/citydeclouds/cdcapart2 being set unique too :!: Bug ?
  * /mlab/citydeclouds/villa/citydecloudsvillab1 
  * /mlab/citydeclouds/villa/citydecloudsvillab2
which are unfortunately (not yet) available on the [[:servers:metalforge]] server.

Then there are 4 "Town Haus" and 5 Open-Air "Lot" available, \\ 
that can be "easily" made player-unique by the approach \\
described in [[#Brixzl's Home]] , with adjustments to their \\
upper floor level files and making the exit to the CDC-Mainmap \\
absolute ''slaying /full/path/to/game_map'' as ''slaying /mlab/citydeclouds/cloudworlddecity'' \\
instead of the relative approach ''slaying ../game_map'' as ''slaying ../cloudworlddecity'' \\
as it is written in there . \\
( relative path would not work anymore inside //var/players/<player_name>// directories \\
to step back into the crossfire world )

And there are also three larger rooms available and \\
several different kind of Bank Vault's and Deposits; \\
that would need the approach described for the [[#Adventurer's Guild]] in [[#Stoneville]] .
