<p>Contribution by Griatch, 2015</p>
|

<p>A full roleplaying emote system. Short-descriptions and recognition (only

know people by their looks until you assign a name to them). Room poses. Masks/disguises
|

(hide your description). Speak directly in emote, with optional language obscuration
|
||||
(words get garbled if you don’t know the language, you can also have different languages
|
||||
with different ‘sounding’ garbling). Whispers can be partly overheard from a distance. A
|
||||
very powerful in-emote reference system, for referencing and differentiate targets
|

(including objects).</p>

<p>In more detail, This RP base system introduces the following features to a game, common to many RP-centric games:</p>
|
||||
<ul class="simple">
|
||||
<li><p>emote system using director stance emoting (names/sdescs).
|
||||
This uses a customizable replacement noun (/me, @ etc) to
|
||||
represent you in the emote. You can use /sdesc, /nick, /key or
|
||||
/alias to reference objects in the room. You can use any
|
||||
number of sdesc sub-parts to differentiate a local sdesc, or
|
||||
use /1-sdesc etc to differentiate them. The emote also
|
||||
identifies nested says and separates case.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>sdesc obscuration of real character names for use in emotes
|
||||
and in any referencing such as object.search(). This relies
|
||||
on an SdescHandler <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">sdesc</span></code> being set on the Character and
|
||||
makes use of a custom Character.get_display_name hook. If
|
||||
sdesc is not set, the character’s <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">key</span></code> is used instead. This
|
||||
is particularly used in the emoting system.</p></li>
|
||||
<li><p>recog system to assign your own nicknames to characters, can then
|
||||
be used for referencing. The user may recog a user and assign
|
||||
any personal nick to them. This will be shown in descriptions
|
||||
and used to reference them. This is making use of the nick
|
||||
functionality of Evennia.</p></li>
