Description

When carrying the appropriate special key, a locked door can be opened. The key will disappear.

This object-type can also be used for "passport"-like items: When walking onto an inventory checker, a gate for example might get opened. The "passport" will stay in the player's inventory.

Type defined by:

object::type = 21

Attributes

Attribute	Field	Description
artifact	object::artifact	If defined, refers to an artifact to get values from.
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.
blocks prayers	blocks_prayer	Similar to damned, but does not appear in detect curse.
changing	FLAG_CHANGING	A <changing> object converts to <food> <other_arch> objects; when it's animation is done. For non-living objects <food> is checked: if it is zero, the change happens; otherwise <food> is decreased by one. I suggest you don't mess with this value - leave the default in place.
client-sided randomized animation?	FLAG_CLIENT_ANIM_RANDOM	If defined, then the object's animation is client-sided. Similar objects are animated independently.
client-sided synchronized animation?	FLAG_CLIENT_ANIM_SYNC	If defined, then the object's animation is client-sided. Similar objects are animated synchronized.
description	object::msg	This will add a description to the object. The player can read this text by clicking on the item in his inventory. Use this message to describe what the key/passport is good for. A player might have 50 different keys on his key-ring. Don't expect players to recall their purpose just by their names.
elevation	elevation	The elevation (height above sea level) of this square. 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.
glow radius	object::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.
godgiven item	FLAG_STARTEQUIP	A godgiven item vanishes as soon as the player drops it to the ground.
identified	FLAG_IDENTIFIED	If an item is identified, the player has full knowledge about it.
identified animation	identified_animation	If defined, then the object will take this animation when identified.
identified animation speed	identified_anim_speed	If defined, then the object will have this animation speed when identified.
identified image	identified_face	If defined, then the object will take this appareance when identified.
identified random animation?	identified_anim_random	If defined, then the object's animation is in a random sequence when identified.
identified_name	identified_name	If defined, then the object will take this name when identified.
identified_name_pl	identified_name_pl	If defined, then the object will take this plural name when identified.
image	object::face	The image-name defines what image is displayed for this object in-game.
invisible	object::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.
is used up	FLAG_IS_USED_UP	If set, decrement the <food> field at <speed>. When <food> reaches zero, remove the object.
key string	object::slaying	This string must be identical with the <key string> in the locked door, then it can be unlocked. It can also be used to trigger inventory checkers.
material	object::material	For Special Keys, material should always be unset or set to Adamantite. This prevents the key from getting burned or otherwise destroyed.
name	object::name	This is the name of the object, displayed to the player.
non-pickable	FLAG_NO_PICK	If set, the object cannot be picked up (Neither by players nor monsters).
number	object::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	object::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.
price adjustment	price_adjustment	If set, this is the buy and sell price adjustment ratio for the item.
price adjustment for buying	price_adjustment_buy	If set, this is the adjustment ratio when buying the item. Ignored if <price> adjustment is set.
price adjustment for selling	price_adjustment_sell	If set, this is the adjustment ratio when selling the item. Ignored if <price> adjustment is set.
smooth level	object::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".
splitting	FLAG_SPLITTING	A <splitting> object converts to <food> <other_arch> objects; when it is hit physically. For non-living objects <food> is checked: if it is zero, the change happens; otherwise <food> is decreased by one. I suggest you don't mess with this value - leave the default in place.
title	object::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.
unique item	FLAG_UNIQUE	Unique items exist only one time on a server. If the item is taken, lost or destroyed - it's gone for good. This can be used if you want to sell apartments on your map: Simply sell a unique passport/key, and place an inventory checker at the entrance of your apartment.
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	object::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	object::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 open source... you never know ;) ).
