OpenRPG/Flexinode
From David's Notebook
Jump to navigationJump to search
A flexinode is an OpenRPG game tree node that can used used for any rule system.
They have:
- a name (as displayed in the tree)
- a 'right click action' (text and one or more dice rolls to be sent to the chat)
And may also have:
- a value
- a tag (a short name, used to uniquely identify the node)
- a description of the node.
Many nodes can be includes in folders and sub-folders to form hierarchical collections.
Actions can include dice rolls which reference the value of the node and of other nodes. This is done using a file system path-like syntax.
Examples
A subset of a d20 node for a simple attack might look like:
Abilities (folder)
- Strength
- value = 15
- tag = str
- action = [1d20 + str.d20.ability_mod()]
...
Attacks (folder)
- Longsword
- action = [1d20 + ../abilties/str.d20.ability_mod()] Damage: [1d8 + ../abilities/str.d20.ability_mod()]
- description = One-handed, primary attack
Right clicking the action would result in
Longsword [1d20 + 3] => (15) = 18 Damage: [1d8 + 3] => (3) = 6
