CODE
D&D Dogs Version History
----------------------------
v2.5 - 8/27/2005
---------------------
Bug fix: After saying "sit" to your dog, if you said anything else before "come", the dog would stop responding to your commands. This doesn't happen anymore.
Bug fix: When a dog gets lost, it would say "I'm lost! Waiting for my owner to return...", but now references the correct owner name, for example, "I'm lost! Waiting for my owner Driftwood Nomad to return..."
v2.4 - 8/22/2005
---------------------
- Configurable follow type (Rotate or Stationary):
- Right-click your dog and select EDIT.
- Open the CONTENT tab and find the file named #Config.
- Open the file. Find the line that reads "Follow Type = Rotate"
- Follow Type can be either "Rotate" or "Stationary"
* Rotate causes your dog to always be on the same side of you (on your right, left, behind you, etc)
* Stationary causes your dog to follow you in one spot
- Save the file to activate the changes
- Reduced the number of listens to one master listen that sends out link messages for all commands and tricks.
- Changed most says and whispers to llOwnerSay to reduce outside noise.
- Added a changed state to reset the dog when the config notecard is saved without having to touch the dog.
- No longer does a complete reset after each command...recovers faster
- Tweaked the dog's rotation to better follow it's owner and not walk sideways as much. Still not perfect, but it's better.
- Trick updates
- Changed all tricks to use message links instead of individual listens (less lag)
- Attack: Not as strict with capitalization of target.
- Beg: Preloading beg sound
- Doghouse: dog will face out when he goes into the dog house
- Growl: Preloading growl sound
- Howl: Preloading all howl sounds
- Speak: Preloading bark sounds
v2.3 - 1/16/2005
----------------------
- Added Configurable owner's title.
- Right-click your dog and select EDIT.
- Open the CONTENT tab and find the file named #Config.
- Open the file. Find the line that reads "Owner's Title = Master"
- Change "Master" to whatever you want your dog to call you (e.g. "Mistress" or "My Boss")
- Save the file
- Touch your dog to reload the config file
- If a dog gets lost he will IM his coordinates to his owner. The amount of IMs is now capped at 10 to prevent excessive spam.
- The length of time between IMs has been increased significantly to spread out the 10 messages
- Sometimes a dog can get stuck in the ground and will not come to you. If this happens, say "unstick". The dog will unstick himself.
- If someone touches your dog, he barks. When you touch your dog, it reloads the config file.
- Reworked some code to use less memory to help prevent stack/heap collisions
