'Contrib' folder ---------------- This folder contains 'contributions': extra snippets of code that are potentially very useful for the game coder but which are considered too game-specific to be a part of the main Evennia game server. These modules are not used unless you explicitly import them. See each file for more detailed instructions on how to install. Modules in this folder is distributed under the same licence as Evennia unless noted differently in the individual module. If you want to edit, tweak or expand on this code you should copy the things you want from here into game/gamesrc and change them there. * Evennia MenuSystem (Griatch 2011) - A base set of classes and cmdsets for creating in-game multiple-choice menus in Evennia. The menu tree can be of any depth. Menu options can be numbered or given custom keys, and each option can execute code. Also contains a yes/no question generator function. This is intended to be used by commands and presents a y/n question to the user for accepting an action. Includes a simple new command 'menu' for testing and debugging. * Evennia Line editor (Griatch 2011) - A powerful line-by-line editor for editing text in-game. Mimics the command names of the famous VI text editor. Supports undo/redo, search/replace, regex-searches, buffer formatting, indenting etc. It comes with its own help system. (Makes minute use of the MenuSystem module to show a y/n question if quitting without having saved). Includes a basic command '@edit' for activating the editor. * Talking_NPC (Griatch 2011) - An example of a simple NPC object with which you can strike up a menu-driven converstaion. Uses the MenuSystem to allow conversation options. The npc object defines a command 'talk' for starting the (brief) conversation. * Evennia Menu Login (Griatch 2011) - A menu-driven login screen that replaces the default command-based one. Uses the MenuSystem contrib. Does not require players to give their email and doesn't auto-create a Character object at first login like the default system does. * CharGen (Griatch 2011) - A simple Character creator and selector for Evennia's ooc mode. Works well with the menu login contrib and is intended as a starting point for building a more full-featured character creation system. * Evlang (Griatch 2012) - A heavily restricted version of Python for use as a "softcode" language by Players in-game. Contains a complete system with examples of objects and commands for coding.
