Basing off D&D, I have created an "extension" to my wExperience plugin.



While gaining experience, you can gain levels, that are all custom assigned by you.



When a new level is reached, you get to assign X amount of points to your stats.



As seen above, you get to choose how many points the user will receive for reaching this level.



Fully customizable stats.





And health/mana




The users retain an actual health and mana pool.




Currently the only way to regain health and mana is through the "Restore Stats" button on the profile in the upper right corner.



To "lose" the stats, however, you can assign the value while creating a new post.





Which will then show up on the right side of the post as well as deducting the value from the users health and mana pool.




(this part still very early in development - as evident from its pretty plain and ugly looks)

---

Requirements:

- Yootil Library on very top of your plugins
- wExperience 2.1 or higher 


This plugin uses an additional private key, bring the total to: 1 Super User key, 1 Private Key 

And the plugin itself is available right here:

wExperience RPG (1).pbp (35.36 KB)


Please play with it, break it, report it.
I'll try to keep up the development, but no promises on a timeline. The better feedback I can get, the better I can fix things up and make it actually usable.


Once I have more time I'll write a current and future feature list and try to keep it up to date.

I have a random question as I'd love to use this plugin on a site I'm developing however I have extensively customized the miniprofile is there any way I could use it and have it display?

ETA - also noted that zombiesrun.boards.net/user/1 < RPG stats tab isn't working either, not sure if its down to customizations or what however

[Matej]

Boy_Wonder

I'll look into making it available as variables for you to use in a custom template.

As for the profile - it doesn't have any data associated with it. I'll make sure it displays that when the data is missing and see why it didn't set up empty values for your account.

I can hopefully get a fix out today still.

[Boy_Wonder]

Thank you - how can I give it some data to display -just curious- and thanks also for that!

[Matej]

Hey Boy_Wonder

Sorry it took a little longer, but the plugin should at least work now. I haven't yet added custom placement yet though.
If you want a little cheat on how to add it - it looks for a div with the class of "mini-profile" (class="mini-profile") and you have to make sure that inside of this Div is a user link with the class of "user-link" and the user ID number in the classes as well.

That should allow you to display it if you know what the above means. If not I'll have to add that in still.

[Boy_Wonder]

Thank you and yes I do - I would prefer custom positioning control but I can work with this little cheat.

Editing to add - I've set the mini-profile up as required and it still won't show in mini-profile however the profile page works a charm other then

• RPG Stats

Showing at the very bottom of profiles and on the menu bar on the profiles page - I'm guessing this is something that'll be cleaned up later on but just wanted to let you know

ETA - ((Sorry I keep adding things as I find them, I hope you don't mind!)). I've been testing the health loss system and I can't seem to get it to work, I don't know if its just because I can't see the health on my profile but 

zombiesrun.boards.net/thread/5/health-lost-test?page=1&scrollTo=11

As you can see its not showing the loss on the right, and when I go to profile it still shows me having 100/100 HP

ETA 2 - (Sorry again) got another bug, again not sure if its because I'm struggling to get it to show in miniprofile. Just levelled up to level 2 and get the following message, part of which I believe is in error -

You have reached level 2 and have gained 5 new ability points!



You have undefined stat points available.

When I click on a + sign I get this error:
Error! No points available!

I'm interested in this as I've been keeping an eye out on Peter's RPG Stat's plug-in. I don't need anything as nearly complex as your's Woop, though it is very impressive. Peter's would've suited my needs if only the Staff would be able to View and Edit the numbers in the Profiles. That's all I need.

I read through and searched the Request thread first before finding this. If a simpler version could be worked out or if Peter, would allow his Plug-in to gain a friendly in the future I'd be great.

Thank you, I'll keep an eye out.

The "Simple RPG Stats" plugin is what it is.  Simple.  It was a request a while back where someone wanted it to be based on the post count, no other bells or whistles, hence why I placed "Simple" in front of it.  A lot of people seem to not understand that.

However, I was going to work on a big RPG (Phoenix? anyone remember that) plugin, but I feel that Matej's plugin could develop into something really good over time, so would prefer not to waste my time on one.

[pinder]

Not a problem! Thanks so much for the other plug-ins that you do work on peter .

Not sure if you've seen this, thought I'd just quote the various bug things I've spotted though just in case.

ETA: Got the thing to display, still having the other issue, included an attachment if that helps Matej

[Boy_Wonder]

Me again, not trying to annoy you or anything but I did have a bit of an idea that I'd like to suggest, and I'm not sure which plugin it would most likely tie into - I was thinking of suggesting maybe a way of having a code you could use in posts something like


[username="usernamehere"]50 EXP[/username]

Allowing a user to gain a bonus amount of EXP

[Wormopolis]

then everytime that user read that post they would gain 50 exp?

[Boy_Wonder]

No it should be a one time thing

[Wormopolis]

so the key would have to store the post_id of every post it ever found one of these in?
