Griatch	1a6ef5d983	Added more caching to channelhandler as well as players in order to cut back on unnecessary database calls.	2012-04-26 13:38:34 +02:00
Griatch	28fe2ad3f4	Run Migrate. Implemented a full separation between Player and Character - Players (OOC entities) can now also hold cmdsets and execute commands. This means that "disconnecting" from a Character becomes possible, putting the Player in an "OOC" state outside the game. This overall makes the game much more stable since there used to be issues if the character was destroyed. Having an OOC set also avoids the previous problem of @puppeting into an object that didn't have any cmdset of its own - you couldn't get back out! A new default OOC-Cmdset handles commands available to a player while OOC. Commands in this set are applied with a low priority, allowing "IC" mode to give precedence if desired. ... This change meant several changes to the lock and permission functionality, since it becomes important if permissions are assigned on the Player or on their Character (lock functions pperm() and pid() etc check on Player rather than Character). This has the boon of allowing Admins to switch and play/test the game as a "Low access" character as they like. Plenty of bug fixes and adjustments. Migrations should make sure to move over all data properly.	2011-04-23 11:54:08 +00:00
Griatch	52785e8f3e	Obs:Migrate. Made Comm system more generic, including the ability to connect arbitrary protocols to channels. Re-worked the IRC connectivity system - you can now again communicate between IRC and in-game evennia channels.	2011-04-10 12:39:07 +00:00
Griatch	08b3de9e5e	OBS: You'll need to resync/rebuild your database! ... - This implements an updated, clearer and more robust access system. The policy is now to lock that which is not explicitly left open. - Permission strings -> Lock strings. Separating permissions and locks makes more sense security-wise - No more permissiongroup table; permissions instead use a simple tuple PERMISSIONS_HIERARCHY to define an access hierarchy - Cleaner lock-definition syntax, all based on function calls. - New objects/players/channels get a default security policy during creation (set through typeclass) As part of rebuilding and testing the new lock/permission system I got into testing and debugging several other systems, fixing some outstanding issues: - @reload now fully updates the database asynchronously. No need to reboot server when changing cmdsets - Dozens of new test suites added for about 30 commands so far - Help for channels made more clever and informative.	2011-03-15 16:08:32 +00:00
Griatch	2bdaf034c8	OBS: You need to resync your database! The Nickname system is now a separate database model with the result that also channel nicks are more robust. Also nickname replacement has been adjusted to fix some exceptional circumstances. Fixed a host of issues in the channel and nick handlers and adjoining commands that caused the channel-syscommands to fail in some situations. Resolves issue131. Resolves issue 132. Resolves issue 134.	2011-02-27 22:27:56 +00:00
Griatch	900f6da80f	Fixed several special cases of handling multiple same-named commands gracefully. Should resolve issue94.	2010-09-01 21:59:13 +00:00
Griatch	f83c2bddf8	Trunk: Merged the Devel-branch (branches/griatch) into /trunk. This constitutes a major refactoring of Evennia. Development will now continue in trunk. See the wiki and the past posts to the mailing list for info. /Griatch	2010-08-29 18:46:58 +00:00
