<source lang="sql"> CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS temp_postman ( source VARCHAR(64),

target     VARCHAR(64),
message    TEXT);

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/home/katie/workspace/stendhal/postmantable.csv' INTO TABLE temp_postman FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';

insert into postman (source, target, message, timedate, messagetype, delivered) select source, target, message, '2010-07-20 00:00:00', 'P', 0 from temp_postman;

-- yes thats a lie about the message type, some came from npcs update postman set messagetype = 'N' where source in ('MrTaxman','Dagobert','Harold','Wilfred');

-- add indices on target and delivered (combined?)

-- remove messages where the target does not correspond to an existing character name delete postman from postman left join characters on characters.charname = postman.target where characters.charname is null;

-- remove messages where the target account.username is permanently banned (why do this first? it might get more?) delete postman from postman join account on account.username = postman.target where account.status='banned';

Stuff to do, over time

• Correct some of the warnings in findbugs:
  • Blackjack
  • Help tomi string append
  • Portal cast
• Review golden orc sword quest that's in feature requests
• Create quests pointing to dungeons
• Postman on website
• one player area access portals in banks
• equipment refactoring (right click equip, swapping items over existing items in slots)
• Stendhal Quest Histories - can we get some smart default methods in? or use existing actions?
