I've decided I'd like to make some of my own plugin's available for the worlds of Achaea and Lusternia. I'm to lazy/poor to bother putting up a page for them, so if you want them, or want to put them up on your own page, please email me.

I hope some of y'all think they're worthwhile :P

How are we supposed to know if we want them, or know if they're worthwhile, if you don't even say what you've got? :-)

What language do you use?
USA #3
It doesn't matter. That's the whole point (or at least the beauty) of plugins.

Well, at least from a functionality standpoint. If you were looking to learn the language or something, that'd be another story.

ahem, the only language working on my system is LUA, can I use VB-plugins, even on wine?

My bad! Ahh, sorry bout that. The language is VB although I'm thinking of rewriting them in Lua.

The plugins...:

IREDefencesPlugin.xml -manages defences in any IRE game
IREForgingPlugin.xml -helps with forging in any IRE game
IREMapperPlugin.xml -MC mapper supplement for any IRE game

Most of these plugins, although customized for specific worlds, can be used with any IRE game with only a little modification.

LusterniaPromptPlugin.xml -stat bars + auto healing, needs to be updated for Nick's new stat program
LusterniaRattingPlugin.xml -ratting plugin for Lusternia, can be customized for any city
LusterniaHealingPlugin.xml -autohealer for Lusternia, I can't promise it will work 100%, but it can be useful because I have allowed it to just note, not send, cures and allow the player to actually cure.

AchaeaPromptPlugin.xml -stat bars + auto healing, needs to be updated for Nick's new stat program
AchaeaRattingPlugin.xml -ratting plugin for Achaea, can be customized for any city
AchaeaDemonstratingPlugin.xml -Demonstrating aid for those intrepid monks.

You can use VBscript under Wine *if* you copy the vbscript.dll file over from a Windows PC (into the MUSHclient directory), and you run MUSHclient without the /wine option.

However it tends to be more flaky without the /wine option.

The other thing to do is to convert the plugins to Lua. I did a fairly lengthy description of how you might go about doing that in:

I am interested in seeing your plugins. I might even be willing to post them on my site with a simple little web page. Send me an e-mail with your plugins and a brief description of each one and I'll see what I can do.
