New page

==Release date==

October 2000 for Windows

==1.4==

new starting window
It should be simpler now, when you select 2/3/4 player mode
then you can choose the player to change by clicking on the
little head icon right to the character selection box;
You can also set the nickname separately for each character
in 2/3/4 player mode;
The account name/password thing was moved to the server list

server list window
When you select 'One Player (online)' as game mode then
you will see a server list window that will load a server
list from www.graalonline.com and display it in a list;
When you click at an entry then it will show you some
informations about that server (language, version, homepage etc.);
On the lower part of the server list window you see
the edit fields for account name and password;
click on 'Connect' to connect to the selected server;
When you play then you can always open the server list
window again by pressing F8 (it will refresh the list
automatically)

password are saved separately for each account name

new option 'don't save passwords' in the options window
(F1->General Options)

new pk tag system:
when having less than 40 alignment points (showap) then
you can't increase your power; when you die then you will
get 3 hearts back when ap<20, 5 hearts when ap<40 and
full power when you die while ap>=40;
when you kill someone then your power will decreased
by (yourap/20+1)*(otherap/20);
when ap<20 then your ap will increase every 30 seconds,
when ap<40 then every 2 minutes, ..., when >=80 then
every 30 minutes (no 90 ap limit anymore)

There is better pk recognition:
When you kill someone with bomb/arrows/fire/bushes then
it will count as player-killing too

New script stuff
* New command: changeimgvis index,drawingheight;
changes the drawing height of a showimg image;
possible values for 'drawingheight':
* 0: like drawunderplayer
* 1: like the player
* 2: like drawoverplayer (default)
* 4: on screen (the img will be drawn like the status bar,
it will be drawn on the image (x,y) position);
so you can make your own status bar thing with
this command
* When doing showimg with an image index not in 0..199 then
it will only be shown local
* setimg/setimgpart can be used instead of setgif/setgifpart
* The 'in' operator is enhanced. You can now do things like:
1,2 in {1,2,3,4,5} - will check if 1 AND 2 are in specified array
x in |0,64| - is true when 0<=x<=64
x in <0,64> - is true when 0<x<64
You can also combine those things, e.g.
x,y in <0,10| - is true when 0<x<=10 AND 0<y<=10
* putexplosion2 bombpower,radius,x,y;
for producing jolt bomb explosions (set bombpower to 3)
* New command: setbody bodyimg;
This is a nice command: with this you can change
the body of the player, e.g. setbody body2.png
(body2.png is included in v1.4, its from Antago,
body3.png is from Loriel)
You can also use the #8 message code to change
the body img (setplayerprop #8,body2.png or
setcharprop #8,body2.png);
* npcs[index].attr and compus[index].attr can be changed

better hacking protection

explosion radius is limited to 15 (hack protection)

script command setlevel2 works with floating point values for x/y

you can lay down shields again

Because many people had problems with the music thing
there are some things chanegd/optimized:
* dynamic loading of mediaplayer (so when you turn
off music support then it will not load it)
* winamp support -> option 'use winamp for music'

==1.41==

shooting arrows only takes half the time

there is an ap bar under the ASD thing

a rating system for fights in sparring rooms;
to make a sparring room you must add an npc
with the script 'sparringzone' (no end line
characters!) to the level;
then the server will see that it's a sparring
level and will not change your ap/money and
will rate your fighting skills depending on
who you kill and who kill you;
when you press R then you will see the current
ratings over the heads of the players; it shows
rating + rating deviation; the rating deviation
tells you if the player is fighting often, only
players < 80 rating deviation will be listed in
the graalonline.com top50; so if you see someone
with a rating of 2000 and a rating deviation with
330 that means he only had one fight or so, so you
can't really trust that he is a good fighter
when you are in a sparring room you will see a
white 'sparring' on the ap bar

new option in F1->General options: fullscreen mode;
you can switch to 800x600 and 1024x768;
you can get the screen size in npc scripts
by reading 'screenwidth','screenheight' (in
case you want to align a showimg stats image on
the right side of the screen)

by right-clicking with the mouse on a player
you will open the profile of that player;
the profile now shows more stuff like the account name
and sword power

the server message of the day can now be
HTML

graal PMs and the server MOTD can contain
the new tag <graalmsg>Hallo #n!</graalmsg>
(the text inside the graalmsg tag works like
with the npc script command 'message');
it is good for making a message which looks
more personal

new npc script command showstats, with this you
can show/hide parts of the status bar / game
showstats 1+2+4+8+16+32+64+128+256+512+1024; shows all
showstats 0; hides all
the argument is a bit-wise flag set
1 - ASD
2 - icons (for rupees, bombs, arrows)
4 - rupees count
8 - bombs count
16 - arrows count
32 - hearts
64 - alignment (ap) bar
128 - magicpoints (mp) bar
256 - minimap (you can only hide it, you can't show it when the
player pressed Alt+3)
512 - inventory npcs
1024 - players

npc weapons can't be deleted when their name starts with a *
(e.g. toweapons *Boomerang;)

there is a new very good designed baddy image:
baddyninja.gif from Ulrich Galbraith (Zancrus)
(its the one who made some of the graphics for v1.0
like the frogs, baddies)

there are some new tiles for hourse corners and
inside house corners

fixed a bug with negative rupees when dropping
rupees while being in the bank

in online mode the positions of showimgs are aligned the
same way like the player position; that way its easier to
use hideplayer+showimg because you can align it correctly
to the shadow of the player (which can't be hidden)

in online mode when you do showimg+changeimgpart it also
works for bigger images now

the playerlist is sorted again when your nickname
is changed (it needs to be updated because the guild
might have been changed)

red gloves will be displayed correctly again

the default keys will be set/displayed correctly; this
was a problem in older versions because e.g. in France
you have the A key on a different position on the keyboard;
in France it uses now QSD as the default keys for lifting/
sword/weapon

when you start Graal for the first time then the game
will try to detect the local language automatically;
because some languagexxx.txt files needed to be renamed
you might need to change your language manually if you
have already played

'playersays' works correctly now, but keep in mind that
its not supported anymore, better use strequals(#c,...)

fixed a little bug with head icon transparency in 32bit

showname / ap changing doesn't delete your chat text anymore

==1.411==

when right-clicking on yourself (online mode)
then you will see your own profile + stats

you can not pause in sparring rooms anymore

when entering a sparring level then the
restart position will be updated (so you
restart in the sparring level when you die)

ad animations are stopped when not visible

forgot to mention: there are script variables
screenwidth and screenheight (pixels) for the
visible area which is 640x456 by default;
those variables are read-only

hidden players (script command hideplayer) are
now visible on the map again; we might re-enable
a real hideplayer thing again but not as long
as people can cheat with it

Alt+1 now saves as png too (like Alt+2)

when you press M in the editor then the
generated map will be saved as png; if you
want to use it as map for your playerworld or
for the setmap command then you need to convert
it to 8 bit colors before using it in the game
