So I will take on the development of a WebInterface to integrate with the Game.


Please post the features you would like to see below.

I will keep the following list as up2date as possible


Feature List: (Updated 17.07.2016)

 

  • Finished - Login with the Forum Login Details
  • Finished - Role/Permission System (Ability to have different Roles with different Permissions on the Site
  • Beta deployed / WIP - Syndicate Contracts
  • Planned - Edit Characters online
  • Planned - View DO Recorder Logs online (only for DOs)
  • Finished - Online Library Management
  • Planned - Various Admin Stuff and Stats
  • Suggested - Offline Messaging System (Send Messages to offline persons that are displayed the next time they login / play with a specific character - And the other way around)
  • Finished - Edit DO Records online (expansion of this)

The idea is to add the ability to add some cross functionality between the game and the website.


Right now (at the time of writing this) there are only two things planned that will effect the players:

* Edit Characters Online (I have the problem, that the ingame character management is lacking a bit and lagging quite often)

* Offline Messaging System between the site and the server

* Antag Contract Board


In addition there will be a few admin backend things.

Iirc, they're stored as raw text files.

 

Talked with skull. They will be moved to the db -> Then it will be possible to view them online

Would it be useful to have the option to add comments on them ?

I'm not certain that it needs to be a thing unless we are trying to manage things across several rounds of play in regards to faxes and cannon activities. Gollee or Sierra are obviously going to have better and more meaningful answers though.

Just need the ability to access and read them off-station. Comments and such are covered by the investigation threads in the DO subforums.

We should add library database to whatever control panel we (loredevs) have on the website next to whitelist control. We (lore people primarily?) can purge it all and police it. We can add in more things out-of-round without risk of being interrupted by cultists or ERP. Ideally we delete every single copypaste of IRL books, leave schematics, and add in lore/guides.


Or spam it with WGW

Suggestion added to the list.


Forum login system is finished.

First beta of the contracts system has been deployed.

(Its semi-private to those who know the url)


Public beta might start ~next weekend.

You can already submit the linking request, but it requires a code update on the server.

Once its live you should get a message when connecting that there is a linking request.

What kinda features will this give us?

Right now its not much, basically only the whitelist status and your warnings.


But there are a few things that are planned:

* It will tie into the contracts system (we have a few ideas that should give some incentive to complete contracts)

* Messaging System --> Once its added serverside it will allow you to send and receive pda messages via the webinterface.

* Character Records --> Once the chars are stored in the db, this will allow you to edit you characters.
