gonna experiment with making a game-focused irc bot

Description:

This is an irc based idle-quest minigame bot.

Install Instructions:

// need to describe how to get a bot work for someone else

---

Design Doc:

Current Version is: 1.0.1

Command List:

// need to put current command list and re-iterate version here

Design Goals:

Simple is better than complex. Complex is better than complicated.

I'd rather have a simple front end and a complex back end, than a simple backend and a complicated fromt end.

The fewer unique commands the better. The fewer nested commands the more-better; OR better yet, not at all.

Joke-Theme: Make enough of the text configurable such that this game could be MLP themed.

Function Requirements for Version 1.0.1

• Players will be inducted into the database upon joining the channel.

• Players may attack other players in the channel

• Stats are as follows: --Version 1.0.1

  • attack , int , starts at 1
  • defense , int , starts at 1
  • health , int , starts at 100

• Fighting algorithm now: --Version 1.0.1

  • max( 1, Ad6 - Dd6 ) , where A and D are attack and defense
  • so A of 5 and D of 6 would become 5d6 - 6d6 , or (5 to 30) minus (6 to 36)

• Death can occur, but isnt implemented --Version 1.0.1

• health exists, but there is no way to regenerate it --Version 1.0.1

• admin command only does reload right now --Version 1.0.1

---

Function Requirements for Version 1.1.0

• Change the name of the bot

  • ...

• Debug output will be toggled by some kinda of !debug flag

  • sometimes I want to watch the bot work, most times I dont.
  • toggle boolean based on db object

• Players will be inducted into the database upon joining the channel. --Version 1.0.1

• Players may attack other players in the channel --Version 1.0.1

  • Monsters will be separate bots, not in this code base

• Players earn juice for winning fights

• Players may increase their stats

  • cost in juice to initiate timer
  • timedelta = (lvl)^2.8 in seconds
    • at lvl 13, increasing a stat will take 21 minutes

• Stats could become:

  • attack - int, starts at 1
    • purchased
  • defense - int, starts at 1
    • purchased
  • crit - int, starts at 1
    • purchased
  • level - int, starts at 1
    • anytime any other stat is purchased, this increments too
    • juice cost to level anything = lvl*stat
  • health - int, starts at (doesnt matter, non-zero default val)
    • replaced by lvl*2 + defense*2 + 20
    • cost to rez = lvl*(defense) + health
    • current health is stored is db, max health is calculated when needed
      • if effect makes current health > max health, then current health = max health. duh.
  • juice
    • combo of gold and XP, reward for fighting
    • juice = max(1, 2 * (enemy.lvl - 0.9*your.lvl) )
      • juice = min( juice, your.lvl*2 )
      • you cant get more juice from a kill than double your current level
    • juice issued to Player upon enemy death, last hit
    • rename-able stat? all stats renameable?

• Fighting algorithm could be:

  • max(1 , A + C - D)
  • C = max(0, (crit*3)d6 - (crit*3)d6)
    • slight chance of doing additional x3 damage

• Equipment might be cool, but there are no plans to implement

  • Complicates everything. Might prefer this to be flavor-text only.
  • attack + "My massive enhanced rocket-powered flaming mini-nuke mjornir of burninateing does 1 damage..."

• skills might be cool, but no plan to implement

  • same as equipment, only worse.
  • could be limited to effect + flavor-text
  • attack + "I cast lvl.99999999 Magic Missile for 1 damage...", now you have spells
  • heal as negative attack? temporary stat-boost skill?

• Death can occur, but isnt implemented Version 1.0.1

  • dead Players should'nt be able to attack, be victim, level up, etc..

    • make sure dying is un-fun, something to be avoided

  • need a way to revive, continue playing

    • rez one per hour/day/week ?
    • command-based cost? auto-deduct gold? loss of xp, levels, stats?

• health exists, but there is no way to regenerate it --Version 1.0.1

  • free potions? find potions? buy potions?

  • free health every hour/day/week?

    • command based on timer, or passive

  • combat healing skill? cost mana? gold? xp?

• health vs dying

  • dying is not just 0 health, you have to un-do the death
  • avoid dying; more than just "oh my health is low, lawl whatev"
  • ultra-high chars should be significantly more expensive to rez

• admin command only does reload right now --Version 1.0.1

  • should be able to manipulate any part of any Players anything
  • maybe even change say_hi and good_bye messages?
  • die command?

• monster commands

  • monster bots will need access to specialized admin-esque commands, to respawn and whatnot
  • implement a new command, !monster , check is_monster flag, hide from !help list

• attacks, defends, and other actions may be madlib'able by each player

  • eg. :
    • !q setname bloodninja
    • !q setattack casts lvl.9999999 lightning bolt
    • !q setdefend I put on my hat and wizard robe
  • make a "profile" db object, store all of the madlib text
  • this opens up the option of having bots act as 'Player' to create monsters, saves a shitton of coding and complexity in this project
    • second project would be config-driven bot Monsters, might need is_monster flag in this project though for some logic

• madlib events:

  • attack
    • <Player> <does_attack> to <Victim> who <does_defend> for X <damage> <if_die_message>
  • crit > attack
    • <Player> <does_crit> for X <damage>
      • leave off defend text?
  • defend
    • covered in attack
  • die
    • covered in attack
  • heal
    • <Player> <does_heal> for X <health>
  • rez
    • <Player> <does_rez>

• madlib, new word for each stats / effect:

  • attack
    • Increase <attack> for X <juice>? Will take X seconds|minutes|hours|days.
    • stats: <attack>:X | <defense>:Y | <crit>:Z | ...
      • or keep both?
      • stats: attack:"<attack>":X | defense:"<defense>":Y | crit:"<crit>":Z | ...
      • or keep original in stats, and have separate prfile viewer?
      • stats: attack:X | defense:Y | crit:Z | ...
  • defense
  • crit
  • level
  • health
  • damage
  • heal
  • rez
  • juice
