detectivebuckpasser's Issues

Object inventories dont update

The objects list doesnt update when an item is taken away

Purchasing

Can characters purchase things or is just a novelty gag?

Room Guide

When you look have the available rooms printed to screen

Loading items from rooms

Items in room are not being read from the database

Menu Titles with bad capitolization

Remove title casing from the titles of menus as if an apostrophe is used the next letter is capitolized

Multiuser login

Need to add a database of users and a credentials check with hashed passwords. Remove music from telnet.

Item number and refreshing

amounts of items multiply... and dont refresh immediately

Inventory movement amounts

moving 1 bottle is too small a quantity

Character's Money

Have a wallet being seperate? Use this to buy things?

Cut Scenes

Cut Scenes:

Primary

• Game opening
• JFK Intro
• Canadian Coming in

"Real shithole ya got here"

• Meet Hammer Guy
• Guy Fieri killing
• After the car get towed he goes home grabbing a sixer of schaefer on his way back.

(emphasis on this being his everyday behavior)

• Busting the car out

"A single tear rolls down your cheek watching the carnage, extinguishing"

• Open trunk, Bears head is just sitting in a rubbermaid, hg picks up the head and the cokes under the head.
• You sprinkling drugs on the body
• Case gets moved to the drug squad

Secondary

1. Intro to each of the characters w/ a cut scene
2. The JFK date scene -> old lady wants a date w/ jfk.

talk to jfk, long talk to do ALL the jokes. 'ask naught if I can get to 1st base butt rather how she feels about ass play" "response : she's all about the bum.".

3. $6 gets found out
4. AA Sponser and roommate interactions about bear

Items loading

When loading items in from a save the bottles went away and every subsequent save the number of whiskey doubles. Likely double writing to the db and an off by 1 error

Objects all have the same inventory

All objects have a shared inventory, likely an issue with stale values in the object factory

Host on telnet

Copy: http://mewbies.com/acute_terminal_fun_telnet_public_servers_watch_star_wars_play_games_etc.htm

Add tutorial

Have a tutorial with a walk through of the menu structure and commands etc

Setup of a store

Is a store a room or does a room have a store?

Talking to characters

Talking to steve the canadian from the print numbered command doesnt work
To type in the name it only matches if the capitalization matches, make it that the case doesnt matter

search function breaks game

The objects search function, fails to function. (It be busted.)

Cross Platform

To make this game cross platform in python3 just need to fix the setup script for the database and the screen clearing. Print clearlines for the size of the terminal instead of clear.

Question is how to load in sql files in a cross platform manner?

Not existant item notification

If an item doesnt exit in the inventoty it print Unknown arguments ['bottle', '3'] -> make this a better notification

Inventories not writing to db

items left in rooms will not be there on leaving and reentering, likely not being written to the database

Describe Broken

talking to the canadian, for list optins cannont concatinate nontype to list
