Stendhal/Creature Organization/Examples: Difference between revisions

== Option 1: Very generalized categories ==

=== dragon.xml ===

== Option 2: More distinction between classes ==

<b><span style="color:blue">This organization has been implemented in CVS. The reorganization does not break client/server compatibility, but does cause some inconsistencies with logic tilesets and sprite locations. Below are some suggestions for reorganizing logic tilesets. However, changing those <i>will</i> break compatibility. Reorganizing logic tilesets and spritesheet locations will need to be done a little at a time to not create a huge incompatibility between the server and client.</span></b>

Example: undead.xml <b><i><span style="color:red">This method will not be used. There is currently no use for using a subclass tag.</span></i></b>

If subclass tags not possible comments can be used in place of them in the traditional method: <b><i><span style="color:blue">This is how the reorganizations is laid out. It is the same as before with comments to separate subclasses within the creature.xml.</span></i></b>

== Organization of logic tilesets ==

The logic tilesets can either be kept in the currently used directory and just refactored to match the creature.xml files. Or the tilesets can be placed in a subdirectory of "tileset/logic/creature". For example: ''amazon'', which is a subclass of ''human'', would be located in "tileset/logic/creature/human/amazon.png". NOTE: classes with many subclasses can be divided up.
