[Guide] Create new command ( Like Donor Announce )

[~SaiLyn~]

Step 1 :

-Download Ascent from its SVN if it hasent been done so yet.

Step 2 :

- First we need to edit 3 files in the ascent source code.

- So first lets edit , lets say Chat.cpp located in scr/ascent-world/chat.cpp

Lets search for a command for example

"
{ "save", 's', &ChatHandler::HandleSaveCommand, "Save's your character", NULL, 0, 0, 0},

"

Under it lets add a new command , im going to call my command a .donor and for access lets say " d ". So this is how im going to put under the command we searched for

{ "donor", 'd', &ChatHandler::HandleDonorAnnounce, "
Announce with the (DONOR) tag instead of your name
", NULL, 0, 0, 0},

Now were done with this step , so lets click on save and close


Step 3 :

-Now we are going to edit chat.h located in " scr/ascent-world/chat.h "

-Since what we are doing is a announce for donators lets be organized and put it under the original announcements.

- Search for

"
bool HandleAnnounceCommand(const char* args, WorldSession *m_session);

"

Now right under it , lets put ours in , lets add this

bool HandleDonorAnnounceCommand(const char* args, WorldSession *m_session);

Alright were done with this step , lets save and close.

Step 4 :

-Now we are going to edit the levels of commands , for example level0.cpp , level1.cpp , level2.cpp , level3.cpp .

-But I for me im going to put it on level2.cpp , but if I was you put it under level1.cpp.

- Now lets look for level2.cpp located under " scr/ascent-world/level2.cpp "

- Go all the way to the buttom and lets add a new command should we

This is what I would add to make .donor appear as

(DONOR) : MYMESSAGEGOESHERE

We are going to add this

bool ChatHandler::HandleDonorAnnounceCommand(const char* args, WorldSession *m_session)
{
if(!*args)
return false;

char pAnnounce[1024];
snprintf((char*)pAnnounce, 1024, "(DONOR) %s", args);
sWorld.SendWorldText(pAnnounce);
sGMLog.writefromsession(m_session, "used donor announce command, [%s]", args);

//sWorld.SendForcedIRCMessage(pAnnounce);
return true;
}

Alright that should do it , now go into the game and try .donor or any command you just did.

Any support will be posted only here
