Shop Floor

Description

Shop floor is used for shops. It acts like a combination of the common floor- and the treasure type: When the map is loaded, randomitems (depending on the settings) are generated on it. These items are all flagged as unpaid. When a player drops an item onto shop floor, the item becomes unpaid and the player receives payment according to the item's selling-value. Shop floor always prevents magic (To hinder players from burning or freezing the goods).

Type defined by:

• object::type = 68

Attributes

Attribute	Field	Description
block view	FLAG_BLOCKSVIEW	If an item is set to block view, players (and monsters) cannot see beyond it unless they cross it or manage to stand on top.
elevation	obj::elevation	The elevation (height above sea level) of this tile. It is used for weather calculations and should be in the range -32000..32000. The elevation of a tile must be set in the bottom-most game object; elevation values for non-bottom-most game objects are ignored by the Crossfire server.
generate goods	FLAG_AUTO_APPLY	If enabled, items will appear on this square when the map is loaded. You need to specify a <treasurelist> to define what kinds of items are generated. The items will be unpaid.
glow radius	obj::glow_radius	If <glow radius> is set to a value greater zero, the object appears lit up on dark maps. <glow radius> can be a value between 0 and 4, the higher, the more light does the object emit.
identified	FLAG_IDENTIFIED	If an item is identified, the player has full knowledge about it.
image	obj::face	The image-name defines what image is displayed for this object in-game.
invisible	obj::invisible	Generally makes the object invisible. Depending on the object-type, some can be made visible by the show_invisible spell. If in doubt, test it. Putting an invisible object under the floor always prevents it from being shown.
material	obj::material	This bitmask-value informs the player of which material(s) the object consists. Material does also affect how likely the object can be destroyed by hazardous spell-effects.
name	obj::name	This is the name of the object, displayed to the player.
no prayers	FLAG_DAMNED	If enabled, it is impossible for players to use prayers on that spot. It also prevents players from saving. (Remember that <no magic> is always set for shop floors.)
non-pickable	FLAG_NO_PICK	If set, the object cannot be picked up (Neither by players nor monsters).
number	obj::nrof	This value determines the number of objects in one stack (for example: 100 gold coins => "number = 100"). You should set this at least to one, for any pickable object - otherwise it won't be mergeable into a stack.
plural name	obj::name_pl	This is the plural name of the object. A plural name must be set for all items that can be picked up and collected by the player.
quality level	liv::exp	The <quality level> will be used for the quality of the generated goods. If zero/unset, <quality level> 5 is used. Usually this value doesn't need to be set, unless you want extraordinarily good/bad quality. If you want to make a shop with very high quality, maybe charge an entrance fee, or make the shop hard-to-come-by. Note that <quality level> mainly affects chance of magic bonus and appearance of artifact-items.
smooth level	obj::smoothlevel	If <smooth level> is set to a value greater zero, the object will be drawn partially over adjacent squares having a lower <smooth level> value. The value must be between 0 and 255 (inclusive); 0 means "never overlap adjacent squares".
title	obj::title	This is the object's title. Once an object is identified the title is attached to the name. Typical titles are "of Mostrai", "of xray vision" etc.
treasurelist	obj::randomitems	This entry determines what kind of treasure will appear, when <generate goods> is enabled. Look into /crossfire/share/crossfire/treasures for details about existing treasurelists.
unpaid	FLAG_UNPAID	An <unpaid> item cannot be used unless a player carried it over a shop mat, paying the demanded price. Setting this flag makes sense only for pickable items inside shops.
value	obj::value	Adds a certain value to the object: It will be worth that many times the default value from it's archetype (E.g. "value = 3" means three times worth the default value). Value for buying/selling will be further modified by various factors. Hence, testing values in-game is usually inevitable.
weight	obj::weight	This value defines the object's weight in grams (1000g is 1kg). Objects with zero weight are not pickable for players. Still, set the "non-pickable"-flag for explicitly non-pickable objects (hey, this is opensource.. you never know ;) ).
