Not really. How realistic is it to assume that all characters carry around a full set of game pieces and a board, and is it really acceptable to stop in the middle of the road to play?

Post by: Gondric on September 15, 2006, 01:18:14 pm

At some point we will just need an item which can be beught somewhere and it will be the game set. So you will be allowed to play anywhere if one of the players have the set.

On the other hand most people do carry around a lot of ores, weapons, glyphs, and money without sinking through the ground. A louse pocket-sided chess board will not add much weight to that :-)

That's true, but these things are real items.. Playing anywhere after buying a portable game set is reasonable. Playing anywhere fullstop.. Eh.

Personally I wish there were some more realistic way to carry all this stuff around :/ I have two gold falchions, two silvers, two broadswords, one sharp broadsword, two mugs, a bunch of ores, a glyph, leather armour AND chainmail armour, and my character still looks tiny.. WHERE does she put it?

The chess is indeed in-game and yes, you have to go to a specific location to play it.
It works like this:
You find the location (you can talk to one of the npc's there to make sure you have the right location)
You right-click on the chess thingy there.
You click on the hand icon, the text over it says "Play Game"
Another player does the same thing
You can play now
Other players can do the same thing too and spectate.

The only minigame on the Laanx server is currently in the NPC room. The minigame that the settings team wants to have has 13 rows and 9 columns. With the current minigame window pieces on the board are too small that you need a magnification glass to see them :)

So they are now working on a different game that works better with the current window size and could be tested.

Post by: ThomPhoenix on September 15, 2006, 04:58:49 pm
What?
I thought it would be in-game :(
So the minigame as-it-is-now is in npcroom only, and an improved version will be made public later?

So this game which is the same as the one in npcroom will be made public soon?

Yes, it will be. It just needs a better name and description that would fit the settings. "Test Game" and "A minigame for testing" are not appropriate for an RPG like Planeshift :)

Thanks for the info, Bereror!
edit:
Ah, so it's in-game now  ;D
