Question:

I was wondering if we could add a master toggle to avatar access in Clan Permissions. That way during times they don't work or shouldn't be out (like BxPx) we can simply "lock" the plot so no one can take them instead of having to hunt down and explain this to each and ever warden, and without having to remove everyone's permissions individually.

Bres


I can probably do a "master" checkbox so you can remove everyone's permission. Locking the habitat is however beyond the scope of this project.


A master checkbox for the permission would work, as long as it didnt simply strip the permissions away. When the 'master' lock is then undone the same persons would have the permissions back, right?

Or maybe a simply, check all / uncheck all for the avatar permission would work, since (at least in my clan) everyone who is admin+ get the permission for it, not just some of them.

Sounds like setting a clan list filter + uncheck/check all within the filtered is what you're after.

E.g. view admins only -> tick/untick a master box for all admins

We'll be chatting to you about this for a couple of weeks before we go ahead and solidify the design and then begin dev.


In the long run here, what type of ETA are you aiming for in terms of release, before or after June as an example?

Given the scope of the testing required (every single permission will need to be tested at every single rank)... not to mention the new interfaces... so quite a while!

Please take as much time as you want to properly explore and design all use cases, optimize coding and then testing the system thoroughly before any kind of release. This is a vital part of the clan tools and any small oversight could generate anxiety or negativity. Please also keep in mind to incorporate utility functions or modules within your work for easy expansion to support future updates this year with mini games integration. I am assuming that the majority of the mini games in Runescape would eventually be integrated into the clan tools one way or the other to allow clan vs clan options and we might eventually need permissions for those. A leading rank for mini game A can be different from a leading rank of mini game B. It's just food for thought for the future.

Good luck.

*chuckles* we don't have functions or modules as such. We use RuneScript which has been stated before - an in house language that isn't structured much like any other language. It's quite difficult to make things generic too.

I will however do my best to write as few bugs as possible. :-)

Ah yes, I forgot that this is related to content development involving interpreted scripts instead of core game programming :P

What I meant to say was that I am hoping that the new permissions system is flexible enough to accommodate any future additions such as setting the option of leader for different mini games, i.e. people can challenge or accept challenges in various mini games, assuming that there would be more mini games integrated to the clan tools later on, in addition to rated clan wars.

More accurately, the current permission system has a checkbox with the tooltip "Toggle whether this rank may lead the Clan in a Rated Clan War". Right now as it stands, there is only one mini game so a single checkbox would suffice (although I don't see it anywhere in the mock up screens where it should be! ie. rank based permissions and player based permissions). Assuming that there are more mini games incorporated to the clan tools in the future, there would be a need to have multiple leaders for various mini games. I would assume that setting a leader for a minigame could be incorporated by setting a clan Job to individual players, regardless of what rank they hold in the clan, whereas Admin+ would be able to lead all mini games. This way, it can accommodate multiple mini game leaders using the jobs list. I hope that it makes sense.

Makes perfect sense to me Malkor :) I was wondering about the same thing. Although we're trying to seperate permissions from jobs so I prefer some checkboxs somewhere.

But wouldn't our minigame leaders be trustworthy enough to not lead certain other minigames if we instruct them so? If yes, then perhaps one player-based permission would be sufficient, and it'd still fit in the interface next to the avatar checkbox.

Edit: Or it could just stay a rank-based permission. I myself don't mind really.
