Uploaded new script ;guess-who

[Tgo01]

Version history:


Version 1: Initial release!

Version 2: Every person is now identified with a unique number identifier, this number will be used to interact with this person in game and with the script. This number stops being shown once you have added the person to your known list.

Version 2: You can now scan a room to give each person a unique name based on their race and physical features. These names are saved forever, well until you change them or reset all names.

Version 2: You can now change a person's temporary name to anything you want. Be sure to check out the help menu for how to use these new features.

Version 3: You can now interact with unknown people. Refer to their U#. For example if you see (U23) after someone's name then you can do: "wave u23" to wave at that person.

Version 3: Script now replaces a person's real name in MOST instances. What I have noticed at the moment is it won't replace someone's real name when you LOOK at them or if more than 1 person is mentioned in the same line. This will be updated at some point.

Version 4: Script should now properly do commands if the person's U# isn't the last command. For example doing "whisper u3 Hi there!" should now work.

Version 4: Fixed bug with scan feature not assinging a unique name based on person's race and physical appearance if the person had a title or was kneeling/sitting when the scan was started.

Version 4: Fixed bug with not seeing other people's speech or other actions if their name had been changed by the script. All should be good now!

Version 4: There is now an option to add everyone on your befriend list to your known list. Check out the help menu for more info.

Version 4: There is no easy way to hide someone's name unless you first see them in a room via LOOK or when you first enter a room, this means if you never saw Dreaven via LOOK you will see his name everywhere until you do so. To help remedy this the script now does "who full confirm" whenever the script is started and hides the name of everyone currently logged on via this method. This should catch most people, and eventually will catch everyone, and the script still hides their name whenever you LOOK in a room.

Version 4: Default unknown name is now "Stranger", it was "Unknown." There is now an option to change this default name. Check out the help menu for more info.

Version 4: You now have the option of changing what people's unknown name shows as. The default is their race followed by a random physical feature and their U#, you can also change it to just show their race and their U#, or you can just show what the default unknown name is followed by their U#. Check out the help menu for more info.

Version 4: People's real names are hidden in more instances, such as when LOOKing at them and their disks.

Version 4: All disks will show up as simply "disk" when LOOKing in a room. Someday when I'm feeling less lazy I'll just replace the real name on the disk with the unknown name.


GUESS WHO!

How is it that your character knows EVERYONE'S name in game, even if they have never interacted with the person before or saw anyone else use their name? Well this script aims to remedy that! (eventually!)

With this script running whenever you LOOK in a room you will only see people referred to as "Unknown", until you decide you have sufficiently been introduced to them (or found out their name some other way), then you can do:

;send guess add name

For example: ;send guess add Dreaven

To add them to the list of characters you know. From that point on that person's name will show up as normal in the room list.

All "Unknown" people will have a number after their name, and this number will forever identify the same person. For example if the script notes Dreaven as "Unknown123", then Dreaven will forever be known as "Unknown123" until you add his name to the list.

Eventually the script will use this unknown identifier in ALL instances of the person's name being shown (when LOOKing at them, when they use a verb, say something, etc) but for now it's just when LOOKing in a room.

Commands:

To add someone you know to your list of known characters: ;send guess add name"
To remove someone from your list of known characters: ;send guess remove name"
To reset your known list: ;send guess reset known"
To reset your unknown list: ;send guess reset unknown"
To see everyone on your known list: ;send guess list"

Example of this AMAZING script in action:

Also here: Vonaq, Unknown23, Unknown1, Unknown2, Unknown3, Unknown4, Unknown5, Unknown6, Unknown7, Unknown8, Unknown9, Unknown10, Unknown11, Unknown12, Unknown13, Unknown14, Unknown15, Unknown16, Unknown17, Unknown18, Unknown19, Unknown20, Unknown21

ZOMG! Who are all of these people?!

[Tgo01]

If someone shows up as "Unknown23" that person will forever be known as "Unknown23" until you add them to your list of known characters...or you know...you just stop ;guess-who

I'm also thinking about making it so you can interact with the person based on their Unknown name. So for example you could do "wave unknown23" and it would wave at the person.

[Realk]

while i agree that characters should be introduced better/more often.. i dont think that's the solution

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Gelston]

can I target them with unknown23, like say they are a prick and I want to murder death kill them

[Tgo01]

can I target them with unknown23, like say they are a prick and I want to murder death kill them

Not at the moment but it is something I have planned.

[Gelston]

Not at the moment but it is something I have planned.

I think it would be better if you had the unknowns changed to their race, so like Giant1, human2 etc. If they have some kind of concealer that covers their race, then use unknown.

[Tgo01]

I'm gonna change away from the unknown, not sure if I want to go with their race and then a number, or something more unique to each person like "Human with blue eyes"

[Gelston]

I'm gonna change away from the unknown, not sure if I want to go with their race and then a number, or something more unique to each person like "Human with blue eyes"

I think a unique number for everyone with race and number, and to target that person you use just the number.

The only reason I wouldn’t use this script is you have no way to target the person.

[Tgo01]

Uploaded a new version already! WHAT?!

Version 2: Every person is now identified with a unique number identifier, this number will be used to interact with this person in game and with the script. This number stops being shown once you have added the person to your known list.
Version 2: You can now scan a room to give each person a unique name based on their race and physical features. These names are saved forever, well until you change them or reset all names.
Version 2: You can now change a person's temporary name to anything you want. Be sure to check out the help menu for how to use these new features.

You still can't actually interact with anyone yet by using these names, but I'm hoping in the next update you'll be able to do something like "wave u1" and you'll wave at whoever U1 is, this way you can actually interact with people even if you don't know their name.

But for now play around with this and let me know what you think.

Example of this awesomeness in action when everyone is unknown and you haven't scanned them yet:

Also here: Unknown (U1), Unknown (U2), Unknown (U3), Unknown (U4), Unknown (U5), Unknown (U6), Unknown (U7), Bochser, Unknown (U8), Unknown (U9), Unknown (U10), Unknown (U11), Unknown (U12), Unknown (U13), Unknown (U14), Unknown (U15), Unknown (U16), Unknown (U17), Unknown (U18), Unknown (U19), Unknown (U20), Unknown (U21), Unknown (U22), Unknown (U23)

Example of this awesomeness in action when you have scanned a room:

Also here: Burghal Gnome with a wart-tipped nose (U1), Giantman with bronze skin (U2), Elf average height (U3), Dwarf with a pronounced overbite (U4), Erithian very young (U5), Halfling very young (U6), Halfling with copper skin (U7), Bochser, Halfling with tied back blue-black hair worn in a single braid (U8), Dark Elf with straight jet black hair streaked with silver (U9), Halfling with a flat face (U10), Burghal Gnome with a wart-tipped nose (U11), Erithian taller than average (U12), Halfling with raggedly cut (U13), Burghal Gnome with a pointed chin (U14), Halfling with a broad chest (U15), Half-Elf with a small nose (U16), Dark Elf with ashen skin (U17), Halfling with a delicate face (U18), Halfling with golden brown skin (U19), Halfling with a silver clockwork owl perched on his shoulder (U20), Halfling with an upturned nose (U21), Dark Elf with ebon skin (U22), Aelotoi with a pair of crystal green wings (U23)

Example of this awesomeness when you have set a person's name to whatever you want:

Also here: DAMMIT BOBBY (U1), Giantman with bronze skin (U2), Elf average height (U3), Dwarf with a pronounced overbite (U4), Erithian very young (U5), Halfling very young (U6), Halfling with copper skin (U7), Bochser, Halfling with tied back blue-black hair worn in a single braid (U8), Dark Elf with straight jet black hair streaked with silver (U9), Halfling with a flat face (U10), Burghal Gnome with a wart-tipped nose (U11), Erithian taller than average (U12), Halfling with raggedly cut (U13), Burghal Gnome with a pointed chin (U14), Halfling with a broad chest (U15), Half-Elf with a small nose (U16), Dark Elf with ashen skin (U17), Halfling with a delicate face (U18), Halfling with golden brown skin (U19), Halfling with a silver clockwork owl perched on his shoulder (U20), Halfling with an upturned nose (U21), Dark Elf with ebon skin (U22), Aelotoi with a pair of crystal green wings (U23)

I know the physical features thing isn't perfect but it's good enough for now. I'll tweak it later.

[Alastir]

Sounds neat. Look forward to the evolution of this.

[Tgo01]

Another update already?! You bet your sweet ass!

Version 3: You can now interact with unknown people. Refer to their U#. For example if you see (U23) after someone's name then you can do: "wave u23" to wave at that person.
Version 3: Script now replaces a person's real name in MOST instances. What I have noticed at the moment is it won't replace someone's real name when you LOOK at them or if more than 1 person is mentioned in the same line. This will be updated at some point.

Examples:
Also here: Dark Elf with ashen skin (U17), Bochser, Erithian taller than average (U12), Halfling very young (U6), Burghal Gnome with a wart-tipped nose (U11), Halfling with a broad chest (U15), Burghal Gnome with a pointed chin (U14), Halfling with raggedly cut (U13), Halfling with tied back blue-black hair worn in a single braid (U8), Halfling with a silver clockwork owl perched on his shoulder (U20), Halfling with a delicate face (U18), Halfling with golden brown skin (U19), Halfling with copper skin (U7), Dark Elf with straight jet black hair streaked with silver (U9), Half-Elf with a small nose (U16), Halfling with an upturned nose (U21), Aelotoi with a pair of crystal green wings (U23), Erithian very young (U5), DAMMIT BOBBY (U1), Dwarf with a pronounced overbite (U4), Elf average height (U3)

wave u1
You wave to DAMMIT BOBBY (U1).

wave u17
You wave to Dark Elf with ashen skin (U17).

Version 3: Script now replaces a person's real name in MOST instances. What I have noticed at the moment is it won't replace someone's real name when you LOOK at them or if more than 1 person is mentioned in the same line. This will be updated at some point.

Now that I think about it, I didn't even try testing this with SAY, YELL, or ACT. I already logged off for the night. No idea if it will work with those or if those will just totally break the script. Someone test and let me know. I can check it out more tomorrow.

[Tgo01]

I just realized that if the person’s U# isn’t the last word in a command it might not work either.

So doing “wave u11” would work, but doing “whisper u11 sup?” might not work.

I’ll test and fix tomorrow.

[Drew]

This is an awesome idea, I like to see scripts being used to enhance the roleplay in the game rather than being used to break it down.

[Tgo01]

So uh yeah. Apparently you can't see what people are saying when the script is active at the moment. I shall fix this tonight!

Fuck 'em, it isn't important what peasants say anyways.

[Tgo01]

:O!

[Methais]

while i agree that characters should be introduced better/more often.. i dont think that's the solution

I agree. He should change "Unknown" to "Stranger."



The "serious roleplayers" should be all about this though.

[Tgo01]

I agree. He should change "Unknown" to "Stranger."

There's an idea. Stranger does sound better.

[Gelston]

I agree. He should change "Unknown" to "Stranger."

:O

[Methais]

There's an idea. Stranger does sound better.

Gelston's race idea makes the most sense though for a future version.

Giantman1, Half-Elf3, etc.


And anyone under level 5 should just show up as "Noob." Too bad it's not exactly possible. :(

We got updates!

Version 4: Script should now properly do commands if the person's U# isn't the last command. For example doing "whisper u3 Hi there!" should now work.
Version 4: Fixed bug with scan feature not assinging a unique name based on person's race and physical appearance if the person had a title or was kneeling/sitting when the scan was started.
Version 4: Fixed bug with not seeing other people's speech or other actions if their name had been changed by the script. All should be good now!
Version 4: There is now an option to add everyone on your befriend list to your known list. Check out the help menu for more info.
Version 4: There is no easy way to hide someone's name unless you first see them in a room via LOOK or when you first enter a room, this means if you never saw Dreaven via LOOK you will see his name everywhere until you do so. To help remedy this the script now does "who full confirm" whenever the script is started and hides the name of everyone currently logged on via this method. This should catch most people, and eventually will catch everyone, and the script still hides their name whenever you LOOK in a room.
Version 4: Default unknown name is now "Stranger", it was "Unknown." There is now an option to change this default name. Check out the help menu for more info.
Version 4: You now have the option of changing what people's unknown name shows as. The default is their race followed by a random physical feature and their U#, you can also change it to just show their race and their U#, or you can just show what the default unknown name is followed by their U#. Check out the help menu for more info.
Version 4: People's real names are hidden in more instances, such as when LOOKing at them and their disks.
Version 4: All disks will show up as simply "disk" when LOOKing in a room. Someday when I'm feeling less lazy I'll just replace the real name on the disk with the unknown name.

And one thing left on my to do list:

Get script to replace ALL real names in every game line. At the moment it will just replace the first person's real name, so if any game line mentions multiple people it will replace the first person's name but not anyone else's.

You should integrate this script with that RP bot script you wrote a while back.

Then nothing will be able to stop GS from having the best RP in the history of RP.

[Gelston]

make a hooker bot and stick it in the mews in landing

[Methais]

And case Disease on their clients at the end.

[Tgo01]

I’m writing this all down for my next script!

[Tgo01]

More updates!

Version 5: Unfortunately all settings will be reset when you upgrade to this version. This shouldn't be required again for any future updates.
Version 5: Got rid of all of the extra and unnecessary blank game lines that were showing up while script was running.
Version 5: Disks will no longer show up as just "disk" and will now show the person's name; their real name if they are on your known list, and their unknown name if not.
Version 5: Now ALL real names will be hidden (except for people on your known list of course), no matter how many people are mentioned in the same game line. Prior to this version only 1 person's name was hidden per game line, so if multiple people were mentioned on the same game line everyone past the first person would show their real name, but no more because this is fixed!
Version 5: You can now change someone's custom name using their real name, you no longer have to use their U# (although U# still works too). Check the help menu for more info.
Version 5: You can now reset someone's custom name. You can use either their U# or real name to reset their custom name. Check the help menu for more info.
Version 5: You can now list everyone you have assigned a custom name to. There are two options: One will show their real name, U#, and their custom name, the other option just shows their U# and custom name. Check the help menu for more info.
Version 5: There is now an option to show everyone's real name by default, and will show their custom name if you have set one for them. For example with this option on you will see everyone's real name, but if you have set Dreaven's custom name to "Bob" then Dreaven will show up as Bob and everyone else you haven't set custom names for will use their real names.

[Tgo01]

The script is finished unless anyone has any other ideas. The script does everything (and more!) that I wanted it to do.

[Tgo01]

Script in action with all of these wonderful features:



You notice the THIS GUY SUCKS!

[Tgo01]

Also I discovered a bug with the script that I will fix someday.

If you give someone a custom name and use their real name in the custom name, it really screws with things. So until this is fixed I suggest not using someone's full name in their custom name. For example up there I used "Ry" instead of my rogue's full name of "Ryjin" and it worked just fine.
