I still have a lot of work to do on my global Perl utility functions, but it has been requested that I post what I currently have for others to make use of, so here goes.
Be sure to do extensive testing of your quests, especially when using these functions, since they are a work in progress.
I'll describe the functions and show how they're used first, then supply the actual code at the end for copying.
(1) Handling items being given to an NPC
Functions:
givenItems(...) and takeItems(...) - Returns 1 if the required items have been given to the NPC, otherwise 0
givenCoin(...) and takeCoin(...) - Returns 1 if the required coin has been given to the NPC (any denominations), otherwise 0
givenItemsCoin(...) and takeItemsCoin(...) - Returns 1 if the required items and coin have been given to the NPC, otherwise 0
givenPlatinum(...) and takePlatinum(...)
givenGold(...) and takeGold(...)
givenSilver(...) and takeSilver(...)
givenCopper(...) and takeCopper(...)
returnUnusedItems() - To be called at the end of EVENT_ITEM, returning unneeded items and coin to the player
The difference between the givenXYZ() and takeXYZ() functions is that the "given" functions leave the items in the %itemcount hash and $currency variables to be returned to the player with returnUnusedItems(), while the "take" functions remove the items, consuming them for the quest.
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if (plugin::takeItems(13073 => 4)) # 4 Bone Chips
{
quest::say("Your dedication to the war against the evil undead will not go unnoticed, $name.");
}
if (plugin::givenItems(13007 => 1)) # 1 Rations
{
quest::say('Bleah, rations? Can\'t stand them. Can you bring me something tastier?');
}
if (plugin::takeItemsCoin(0, 0, 2, 0, 1006 => 1, 1018 => 1)) # 2gp, 1 Cloth Cape, 1 Small Cloth Cape
{
quest::say('It\'s worth 2 gold and all this material to tailor your cloth cape to fit you? You\'re so vain!');
quest::summonitem(1030); # Large Cloth Cape
}
if (plugin::takePlatinum(1))
{
quest::say('You know how to get my attention! Okay, here\'s the secret info...');
}
plugin::returnUnusedItems();
}
(2) NPC Utility Functions
I so far have three utility functions I use for general NPC processing, with more likely to come.
Functions:
fixNPCName() - Convert's an NPC's name from 'a_skeleton005' to 'a skeleton'
humanoid() - Returns 1 if an NPC's race is humanoid, otherwise 0
assocName() - Returns an associative name that an NPC might use for a player, based on their faction or status. Instead of all NPCs in the game referring to the player by their name (how can every NPC in the game know every player's name anyway?), most might say "friend" or "stranger" or "Dark Elf", depending on how much they like them.
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_SAY
{
$mname = plugin::fixNPCName();
if (plugin::humanoid())
{
if ($text=~/hail/i)
{
$name = plugin::assocName();
quest::say("Hail, $name! I'm $mname. Welcome to the jungle. We've got fun and games!");
}
}
else
{
quest::echo("$mname grunts and growls at you.");
}
}
(3) Zone Utility Functions
I've just barely started these functions, but it's easy to flesh them out however you'd like.
Functions:
cityName() - Returns the name of the local city based on zone (and sometimes coords)
quickGreeting() - Generates a random little greeting appropriate to the locale
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_SAY
{
$city = plugin::cityName();
$greet = plugin::quickGreeting();
quest::say("$greet, $name! I hope you enjoy your stay in $city!");
}
(4) Accessing $variables from inside a plugin::sub
If you've done plugin coding of your own, you've no doubt discovered that subs in a plugin Perl file do not have access to the regular $variables or %itemcount hash from the EVENT_SAY, EVENT_ITEM, etc. subs.
I managed to get around this problem, implementing the following functions for reading and writing to the available variables from any scope:
Functions:
val(...) - Returns the value of the variable requested
setval(...) - Sets the value of the variable specified
var(...) - Returns a reference(*) to the variable requested
(*) Note on references: These give you read/write access to the contents of an exported variable. However, you must use a double dollar sign on variables returned this way (e.g., $$platinum).
This can get a little tricky. References can be a little hard to understand. If you want to be safe, I recommend you just use val() and setval() to get and set variable values.
One notable exception will be %itemcount, which -must- be used as a reference if you want to be able to make changes to it, such as with takeItems() and returnUnusedItems(). See the example below for the use of a $itemcount reference instead of the %itemcount hash.
Examples of how to use them:
In an NPC .pl file...
sub EVENT_ITEM
{
plugin::defaultItem();
}
In a plugins .pl file...
sub defaultItem
{
my $itemcount = plugin::var('%itemcount');
my ($platinum, $gold, $silver, $copper) = (plugin::val('$platinum'), plugin::val('$gold'), plugin::val('$silver'), plugin::val('$copper'));
my $item1 = plugin::var('$item1');
my $itemid1 = $$item1;
my $boneChips = $itemcount->{13073};
$boneChips = 0 if (!defined($boneChips));
quest::say("You gave me $boneChips Bone Chips.");
quest::say("You gave me $platinum pp, $gold gp, $silver sp, $copper cp.");
quest::say("The item in the first slot you gave me had an id of: $itemid1");
plugin::setval('$copper', 50);
$copper = plugin::val('$copper');
quest::say("After setting \$copper, I now show that you gave me $copper cp.");
}
(5) Actual Code
Okay, here's the code that actually does the work seen in the above examples.
File: plugins\globals.pl

{

$varName =~ s/^(\$|@|%)//g;
if ($varName eq 'mob')
{
# Shortcut: Requesting $mob steps into EntityList to get $mob reference for the current NPC.
my $entity_list = plugin::val('entity_list');
return $entity_list->GetMobID(plugin::val('mobid'));
}
else
{

}
# Sanity check. If something goes horribly wrong and we can't step out of the plugin:: namespace, just return an empty string.
return '' if ($level >= 10);
$fullname .= $varName;
if ($varName eq 'itemcount')
{

}

# Parameters: varName, newValue
sub setval
{

}
# Returns 1 if the NPC has been given a particular item or set of items. Otherwise, returns 0.

(6) Default NPC implementations
I personally have set up some default actions for NPCs to take on my server under common circumstances.
For example...
All NPCs will return items and coin given to them that aren't part of a quest for that NPC.
Soulbinders will behave as expected without separate .pl files for each Soulbinder NPC
Guards can use zone-appropriate flavor text for hails, attacking, and dying without separate .pl files for each guard
Merchants can respond to hails with a little flavor text
Common monster types such as orcs and goblins can have flavor text without separate .pl files for each NPC
As a GM, I can walk up to an NPC and give code phrases for things like money to test a quest script with
Note: NPCs that do have a .pl file already created for them will need to call the plugin::defaultXYZ() sub at the end of their own subs if you wish to utilize the default event processing.
Most of the default event subs can take a true/false parameter (e.g., "defaultSay(1);" to specify that your NPC has already handled the event in question, so the default event should only do minimal processing.

Conclusion
I did some of the cleanup work while I was away from home, so I haven't had a chance to 100% test everything.
If something doesn't appear to be working properly, let me know and I'll look into it!
- Shendare
Be sure to do extensive testing of your quests, especially when using these functions, since they are a work in progress.
I'll describe the functions and show how they're used first, then supply the actual code at the end for copying.
(1) Handling items being given to an NPC
Functions:
givenItems(...) and takeItems(...) - Returns 1 if the required items have been given to the NPC, otherwise 0
givenCoin(...) and takeCoin(...) - Returns 1 if the required coin has been given to the NPC (any denominations), otherwise 0
givenItemsCoin(...) and takeItemsCoin(...) - Returns 1 if the required items and coin have been given to the NPC, otherwise 0
givenPlatinum(...) and takePlatinum(...)
givenGold(...) and takeGold(...)
givenSilver(...) and takeSilver(...)
givenCopper(...) and takeCopper(...)
returnUnusedItems() - To be called at the end of EVENT_ITEM, returning unneeded items and coin to the player
The difference between the givenXYZ() and takeXYZ() functions is that the "given" functions leave the items in the %itemcount hash and $currency variables to be returned to the player with returnUnusedItems(), while the "take" functions remove the items, consuming them for the quest.
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_ITEM
{
if (plugin::takeItems(13073 => 4)) # 4 Bone Chips
{
quest::say("Your dedication to the war against the evil undead will not go unnoticed, $name.");
}
if (plugin::givenItems(13007 => 1)) # 1 Rations
{
quest::say('Bleah, rations? Can\'t stand them. Can you bring me something tastier?');
}
if (plugin::takeItemsCoin(0, 0, 2, 0, 1006 => 1, 1018 => 1)) # 2gp, 1 Cloth Cape, 1 Small Cloth Cape
{
quest::say('It\'s worth 2 gold and all this material to tailor your cloth cape to fit you? You\'re so vain!');
quest::summonitem(1030); # Large Cloth Cape
}
if (plugin::takePlatinum(1))
{
quest::say('You know how to get my attention! Okay, here\'s the secret info...');
}
plugin::returnUnusedItems();
}
(2) NPC Utility Functions
I so far have three utility functions I use for general NPC processing, with more likely to come.
Functions:
fixNPCName() - Convert's an NPC's name from 'a_skeleton005' to 'a skeleton'
humanoid() - Returns 1 if an NPC's race is humanoid, otherwise 0
assocName() - Returns an associative name that an NPC might use for a player, based on their faction or status. Instead of all NPCs in the game referring to the player by their name (how can every NPC in the game know every player's name anyway?), most might say "friend" or "stranger" or "Dark Elf", depending on how much they like them.
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_SAY
{
$mname = plugin::fixNPCName();
if (plugin::humanoid())
{
if ($text=~/hail/i)
{
$name = plugin::assocName();
quest::say("Hail, $name! I'm $mname. Welcome to the jungle. We've got fun and games!");
}
}
else
{
quest::echo("$mname grunts and growls at you.");
}
}
(3) Zone Utility Functions
I've just barely started these functions, but it's easy to flesh them out however you'd like.
Functions:
cityName() - Returns the name of the local city based on zone (and sometimes coords)
quickGreeting() - Generates a random little greeting appropriate to the locale
Examples of how to use them:
sub EVENT_SAY
{
$city = plugin::cityName();
$greet = plugin::quickGreeting();
quest::say("$greet, $name! I hope you enjoy your stay in $city!");
}
(4) Accessing $variables from inside a plugin::sub
If you've done plugin coding of your own, you've no doubt discovered that subs in a plugin Perl file do not have access to the regular $variables or %itemcount hash from the EVENT_SAY, EVENT_ITEM, etc. subs.
I managed to get around this problem, implementing the following functions for reading and writing to the available variables from any scope:
Functions:
val(...) - Returns the value of the variable requested
setval(...) - Sets the value of the variable specified
var(...) - Returns a reference(*) to the variable requested
(*) Note on references: These give you read/write access to the contents of an exported variable. However, you must use a double dollar sign on variables returned this way (e.g., $$platinum).
This can get a little tricky. References can be a little hard to understand. If you want to be safe, I recommend you just use val() and setval() to get and set variable values.
One notable exception will be %itemcount, which -must- be used as a reference if you want to be able to make changes to it, such as with takeItems() and returnUnusedItems(). See the example below for the use of a $itemcount reference instead of the %itemcount hash.
Examples of how to use them:
In an NPC .pl file...
sub EVENT_ITEM
{
plugin::defaultItem();
}
In a plugins .pl file...
sub defaultItem
{
my $itemcount = plugin::var('%itemcount');
my ($platinum, $gold, $silver, $copper) = (plugin::val('$platinum'), plugin::val('$gold'), plugin::val('$silver'), plugin::val('$copper'));
my $item1 = plugin::var('$item1');
my $itemid1 = $$item1;
my $boneChips = $itemcount->{13073};
$boneChips = 0 if (!defined($boneChips));
quest::say("You gave me $boneChips Bone Chips.");
quest::say("You gave me $platinum pp, $gold gp, $silver sp, $copper cp.");
quest::say("The item in the first slot you gave me had an id of: $itemid1");
plugin::setval('$copper', 50);
$copper = plugin::val('$copper');
quest::say("After setting \$copper, I now show that you gave me $copper cp.");
}
(5) Actual Code

(6) Default NPC implementations
I personally have set up some default actions for NPCs to take on my server under common circumstances.
For example...
All NPCs will return items and coin given to them that aren't part of a quest for that NPC.
Soulbinders will behave as expected without separate .pl files for each Soulbinder NPC
Guards can use zone-appropriate flavor text for hails, attacking, and dying without separate .pl files for each guard
Merchants can respond to hails with a little flavor text
Common monster types such as orcs and goblins can have flavor text without separate .pl files for each NPC
As a GM, I can walk up to an NPC and give code phrases for things like money to test a quest script with
Note: NPCs that do have a .pl file already created for them will need to call the plugin::defaultXYZ() sub at the end of their own subs if you wish to utilize the default event processing.
Most of the default event subs can take a true/false parameter (e.g., "defaultSay(1);" to specify that your NPC has already handled the event in question, so the default event should only do minimal processing.

This is an example using an NPC I created to be able to change out different-sized leather pieces.

I did some of the cleanup work while I was away from home, so I haven't had a chance to 100% test everything.
If something doesn't appear to be working properly, let me know and I'll look into it!
