putting restrictions on /bind areas?

[ontheDOL]

HI

I want to put a level restriction at a bind area. Eg; if you are over level 10, you cannot bind at certain place, but 10 and under is ok.

Is there currently a way to do this? or would it require another table column in say, "bindpoint" or "area" for a level entry, and a level check in the /bind code?

thanks

Currently there is no way for it but the question is if you really need that function couse if you have an bindpoint in a low level region like Muire Tomb and the cap level of muire would be level 15 you can bind with level 18 to muire and if you log in you are ported out couse to high so the bind in that region is worthless for you maybe that solve the issue allready for ya.

yeah , the bind would be out in the mainland... so i'll have to look at other options. I think i will put a column in "bindpoint" table, and have the method "IsAllowedToBind" run a check to player level for that bind area

It may be an bad idea but what i understood on your server idea you could also do an teleporter for a few teleport locations with restrictions on level.

It is a good idea. Although i don't see the need in the way you expose it, i think a general BindPointManager would be nice:
- forbid low level to bind in highlevel zones
- make bindpoint availables by quest only (thinbk obelisks, catacombs)

And i'm pretty sure there is something related to obelisk in the code.

Btw Bnds if you release in rvr zones you are moved to portal keeps but since a few patches release bring you to relic towns but that dont work somehow i just mention if you find the reason while looking into that stuff if you look.

i imagine its this code here in gameplayer

Code: Select all

case eReleaseType.RvR: { foreach (AbstractGameKeep keep in GameServer.KeepManager.GetKeepsOfRegion(CurrentRegionID)) { if (keep.IsPortalKeep && keep.OriginalRealm == Realm) { relRegion = keep.CurrentRegion.ID; relX = keep.X; relY = keep.Y; relZ = keep.Z; } } //if we aren't releasing anywhere, release to the border keeps if (relX == 0) { relRegion = CurrentRegion.ID; GameServer.KeepManager.GetBorderKeepLocation(((byte)Realm * 2) / 1, out relX, out relY, out relZ, out relHeading); } break; }

i'm not too familiar with anything catacomb related tbh. I wasn't sure if there is any need for this feature really apart from my own custom needs? Thats why i went for the quick n nasty level check in table

In my case, i have a key objective near a town, and can't have high levels binding there for balance reasons
