New gate library

Death · Post by **Death** » Thu Dec 20, 2007 10:31 pm

The gate library is being converted into a recall rune library. There will be no more gates but a lot more options:

-Less crowded. As there are only books and no gates, it will be a lot more spacious.

-Easier to locate areas: Books are separated on shelves by facet and other options (For example, there's a trammel bookshelve and on that book shelf there may be a book to towns a book to dungeons, etc). Also, there may be copies of the same rune in numerous books, making it more likely to find an area.

-Nicer look. With the bookshelves and decor it makes it look more like an information area and hang out spot than it was before.

-Recall books will allow you to recall even if you do not know the recall spell. They do not cost any charges as well. As long as you have the minimum amount of mana to cast a recall spell, you can recall. Your pets will also recall with you if they are within proximity.

-These recall books contain runes to places you normally cannot mark in (ilshenar). Therefore, more options are available.

-You can offer suggestions for recall locations on the forums. Please note that the inside of dungeons as well as felucca champion spots and altars will not be included in the recall list for obvious reasons.

At first it may take some time to get used to because you don't know where the runes are but it's basically the same system (Doesn't cost any charges to recall and you don't need to know the recall spell. Just click the circle on the first page of the book and away you go!).

There exists twice as many spots now as I've added in a few extra places.

There's still quite a bit of work to do for the new recall library as I plan on creating duplicate spots (For those who have noticed, there's a mondain's legacy book in almost every shelf so if you go to felucca, you'll get the mondain's legacy dungeons that exist in felucca. Same will go for malas and such). The FULL book with ALL the uoml dungeons is in the Mondain's Legacy bookshelf. So does not really matter which shelf you go to because some shelves might contain the same rune to the same spot.

Oh and that book actually does something. Brings up a map of the world (Although I should check that people have access to that). Yup, just checked

The rune to Hythloth dungeon in fel seems to be not working. It says You are not allowed to travel there. The location is blocked.

Yeah theres something screwed up right now with runes. I was trying to get rid of the "you are now allowed to travel there" stuff for ilsh but shit hit the fan. I'm trying to figure it out now. If worse comes to worse I'll have to make a special type of rune book for the gate library to bypass the travel check stuff.

Sadly, we did hardly anything for Christmas Eve. We went to see my aunt then went to church like we do every Christmas eve, but then we just went home instead of going out. If it was not for the service, it would not feel like Christmas time AT ALL now. But the Christmas Eve service always brings out the Christmas spirit.

My parents are in bed now lol. I remember when I was a kid, we used to actually all sit out and stay up past midnight, and just talk about random stuff. It's not like that anymore, sadly. When we got home they both went to watch their own thing on the TVs like a normal day after work.

That said, the final boss for the Christmas event is almost ready.

I need to figure out how to make a manger in UO now.

"Unto us a child is born, in the city of Luna..." lol

If you click the recall rune on the first page of the book (The button right beside the name of the area you wish to recall to), you can cast the spell without needing any knowledge in magery and you also do not need to know the recall spell.

Do you have at least 11 mana? Think you might be falling under the mana required to cast. Although now that I think about it, we can probably make that free too.

Pretty sure I made it use 0 mana in gate library region. (this goes for any book) But don't use the recall button, just use the button beside the name (wont need recall charges)
