Help-Task (CreativeWriting/Scripting: Beginner-Intermediate) Drugs.
Posted: 19 Aug 2003 03:26 PM
Here's a little design/implementation task for two (or more) people (i) interested in learning scripting, and has some previous experience; (ii) just interested in writing up about drugs and their effects, without implementations.

Objective: To research and design a variety of edible drugs. The drugs will be pickable from various plants, and has primary, secondary, as well as prolonged effects.

Task: You'd be given a fully commented scripting template designed with the above three effects as 'slots-to-fill-in'.

Estimated Time: 2 + 1 hours (design / Implementation respectively)

Open To: Everybody.


If you're interested in helping out, PM Aria, or reply here. The piece would be eventually published the the wider community with full credit given.

I wouldn't mind doing the writing part. I'll try the scripting part as well, if you'd like, but my scripting's...dodgy...to say the least.
I'd be basing them on real life and also the Drugs given in the Lord of Darkness book if I did it.

Cool Smiley

I'll wait a while to see if there's anyone coming forward for the scripting part, if not, I'd be very willing to work with you through the scripting part. I'm more interested in seeing folks having fun writing/building/learning and getting involved than really homing in after the 'product' Wink

In the meantime, feel free to work on the ideas and let me know (via PM or otherwise).

I believe there are hak paks out there with drugs in them. You could probably use some of those as a guide as well.

Maybe I can help with the scripting it can be fun =P

I also think there should be diffrent types to take drugs..
a pipe.. just eating them.. roasting them and brewing them.. making flour and sniffing..

this can be really really amusing! =P

oooo that can actually work!
just thinking about it..
you can poison ppl.. make em sleep... make em dizzy and steal their stuff! =P
lots of stuff!
the point is.. how do you want to make it? maybe the unique effect of an item can be stored in the DB and changed when someone use the drug or something?

i was thinking to add some drugs/narcotics in the Alchemy CNR.. So the boiling and mixing etc etc part could be part of Alchemy.

Drugs are useful!

Most are like potions, but which are addictive. Some are just substances which give a bonus and a penalty. Some are just great for roleplay.
And when you have drugs, you can have smuggling!
