Love bumping old threads.
Anyway, I discovered (by accident) a few things about this Rules system, since it is documented nowhere (hoping that insights someone to prove me wrong heh!)... As of my install of 070-854, I can now run the exact command quoted above, and it does not error. It does error if my CASE is off (Maxlevel vs MaxLevel).
I also found the #rules list command, which shows some categories (Character, Guild, Skills, GM). Once I saw a categories, I started listing them out.
#rules list Character - fails to list rules
#rules list Guild - shows the "Guild:MaxMembers"
#rules list Skills - echos "Skills:MaxTrainTraidskills" as a possible setting
#rules list GM - shows "GM:MinStatusToZoneAnywhere"
Trying "#rules setdb Guild:MaxMembers 12" worked. Saved the setting to the database anyway. This is important for me, since I want to limit the size if my guilds.
I have searched wholly through the source code for either MaxLevel or MaxMembers, and cannot find a thing that would show me all the possible "rules settings" we can use. I must be missing something. How can the server know what to do with a Rule if there is nothing to tell it what to do should it encounter it?
Can anyone please give me some clue as to where to look for rules values so we can start using the rules system?
TIA,
John
