Suggestion

When a person logs in, have 2 links.

1) My Characters
2) All Characters

Thus, allowing somebody who is logged in to find other characters. Perhaps have the different sorting links use those two suggested links as the base for the sorting.

Also, you have Darkeen from level 1 to level 20. Perhaps a way to allow somebody else to take Darkeen (at any level), and save him under a new name (this would also have to save copies of of every lesser level of the character as well).

For example, I was to create a 6th level Harper, so I take 5th level Darkeen, and do a "Save As", renaming him to Charlie. The app then copies Darkeen levels 1-5 to Charlie 1-5 and creates Charlie level 6 which I can then populate accordingly.

Im going to change the front screen...

What will now happen (after I do it) is this:

The front screen will show you the character list with the Level being the highest level that character has reached.(a character, since they are all seperate, will be where the name, race, and culture are all the same (the profession is usually represented by name(level) i.e. Fighter(1), Fighter(2), Fighter(2)/Thief(1) so I cant use this field.)

Once you click on the character name then you will be shown a list of all the levels for that character.

It introduces another step but will stop you seeing nothing but continuous levels for the same character which is a problem when there are 400 characters, each with 20 levels... you dont want to have to scroll through 8000 lines trying to find one character on screen page  121......

This will reduce it to a search through only the 400 characters, which can then be reduced further by profession, race, or culture....

Stay tuned...

I don’t know HARP…
… but I think you should add a unique identifier per character so that you avoid collisions and your program intrepid two different characters that happens to have the same name, profession and culture as the same character. I can imagine two different people trying to make some game mechanics for Aragorn the Human Rural Ranger…

Hi,

I do but the field is hidden.

There has to be some limits in order to allow people to create characters of different levels and store the same levels. The same perosn can create the same ranger from a perspective of a urban warrior and an urban soldier - different training packages and skills learnt but the race, name, profession and culture are the same....

See the issue??? :)

Cause it isn't actually live yet.  ;D  Also, we are still discussing what to actually name the sub-domain.

Can those with accounts on the darkeen.homelinux.com/yahcs site now test their accounts on the live site please?

There may be an issue....

Actually, Ive just realised that there Will be an issue...

Those with accounts may need to have their password reset to "password" and then they will have to change the password when they log in next on the accounts page...

(The password was saved in the DB using the hashed "password" functon. Since its on a new server the hash is different and so the password wil never match, since the database was copied directly - the password was now rehashed).

Rasyr, I'll IM you ANOTHER request ... :-[

Hello,

Sorry but the character sheet is broken.

Tests reveal that the bonus to skills (last column), is NOT being added to skills.
Skill total bonus only includes skill rank bonus, and stats.

Sory.

I will look into it when I can....

Hi All,

The HArp Online Character Sheet has now been updated to version 1.1.0.

The skills and skill category sheet is now fully AJAX compliant!

So this means that the page does NOT update when you press tab and all database changes are saved back without a page update.
Also each field will have the save status displayed i the status bar. Watch for Errors, here is where they will be displayed!
The Help page has been updated too.

I will look for other issues (I am aware of other minor details).
