5 This small user manual should help users learn about the details of OpenRPG that are often times obscure. | |
6 | |
7 What is OpenRPG: | |
8 OpenRPG is a virtual game table software that allows users to connect via a network. The software includes a map, chat, and a gametree. | |
9 | |
10 What is Traipse OpenRPG: | |
11 Traipse OpenRPG is a fork of the original software that is designed to be easy for users, extremely stable, and really powerful. | |
12 | |
13 Traipse has features that set it apart from all other distributions of OpenRPG. The Traipse Suite includes a powerful Update Manager that makes it easy for new developers to create and share their own fork. The Suite also contains an in house Debug Console so users can see what errors, if any, occur.</text> | |

15 <text multiline="1" send_button="0">The Chat window is a basic HTML Parser. It understands all basic HTML tags including table, td, tr, span, font, to name a few. | |
16 | |
17 The chat includes a set of commands. You can learn about the commands by entering /help | |
18 | |
19 The chat also has Settings in the Chat menu that allow you see a Chat Time Index, Images, or strip the HTML and see raw text.</text> | |

21 <text multiline="1" raw_mode="0" send_button="0">The Tabs: | |
22 The Map is divided into 7 tabs. They are Background, Grid, Miniatures, Whiteboard, Fog, and General. There are 6 layers to the map, one tab for each layer except General. | |
23 | |
24 When you select one of the tabs you may access that map layer and it's settings. You may only select tabs based on your role. | |
25 | |
26 Luker or in the Lobby: You cannot access any map tab or changes it's settings. | |
27 | |
28 Player: You have access to the Miniatures tab and the Whiteboard tab. | |
29 | |
30 GM: You have access to all of the tabs. | |
31 | |
32 The Layers: | |
33 A small description of each of the layers. | |
34 | |
35 Background: You can set an image as the background, an image as a tile, or you can set a color. | |
36 | |
37 Grid: You can change the grid size, lines, turn off the grid snap, and change the grid shape. | |
38 | |
39 Miniatures: You can add new or remove miniatures and change mini properties and labels. | |
40 | |
41 Whiteboard: With the whiteboard you can draw lines or add text to the map. | |
42 | |
43 Fog: The fog layer hides the entire map from the prying eyes of players. | |

Included here is a list of the additions to the gametree referencing model as well as some tips on how to make the gametree work the way it was intended. | |
47 | |
48 Grid Nodes: | |
49 Grid nodes are now referenceable with the coordinates of the grid. Example: !@Grid::(0,0)@! | |
50 The example will return the top left most cell data. The grid understands coordinates like this (Row, Column) | |
51 | |
52 Grid nodes can reference node data just like any other node can. With a new added feature grids are even more useful. By using a new die rolling syntax you can draw just the number of the modified roll. While this will not pass during game play, you can use it with the grid node to create a random chart. The new die roll syntax is [#XdY]. # works just like q, yet it returns only the modified die result. | |
53 | |
54 Here is an example with a 3 x 3 Grid | |
55 Example: !@Grid::([#1d3-1], [#1d3-1])@! | |
56 | |
57 The result will be a random event from the grid. | |
58 | |
59 Bonus Node Included: A 52 Card Deck with 4 columns and 13 rows. (4 * 13 = 52) | |
60 | |
61 List Nodes: | |
62 List nodes now have a check box that allows users to send the content as a macro. List nodes are a prime reference holder because users can place a lot of references into one small node. | |
63 | |
64 For the best results from a list node my tip to users would be to create a list node and place it next to the character sheet they are using, inside a the PC Sheet. The list will then use the Child Referencing syntax, but the PC Sheet can go anywhere in the tree and the player will have easy access to all the references. | |
65 | |
66 (List Nodes inside a Tool created PC sheet vanish when moved, or I would recommend the list be placed inside these sheets also.) | |
67 | |
68 Here is an example of a Fortitude save inside the recommended list node: !!Fort::Check!! | |
69 | |
70 Text Nodes: | |
71 Text nodes remain little changed. I agree with all the 1.7.1 users who tell me, if it's not broke don't fix it. With that in mind I have some good tips for text nodes. | |
72 | |
73 Text nodes can be used in conjuction with the new grid features to create random encounters. A GM could place a list of text nodes into a folder and the grid could reference the nodes. | |
74 | |
75 Text nodes also work great when you need to have story text at hand that you don't want to type out during play. Create chapters with folder nodes and add the adventure text to different nodes. You can then use a List Node or a Grid Node to reference the different chapters. | |
76 | |
77 Bonus Node Included: A small book node with 1 Chapter and 3 Parts.</text></nodehandler><nodehandler class="textctrl_handler" frame="400,400,393,95" icon="note" map="Traipse OpenRPG::User Manual" module="forms" name="Node Referencing" version="1.0"><text hide_title="0" multiline="1" raw_mode="0" send_button="0"> Traipse node referencing is unlike other distributions of OpenRPG. The gametree mapping is a fluid map that changes with the location of your nodes. This allows you to create a reference node that will stay with your character sheet, and if you change the location of your character sheet the reference will still work. | |
78 | |
79 (Note: Renaming your node causes problems with the tree mapping until you restart the software. You can just move the node and the software will reset the gametree map) | |
80 | |
81 Reference Types: | |
82 There are three ways of references node data. A Root Reference, a Child Reference, and a Parent Reference. | |
83 | |
84 Root Reference: | |
85 A node reference that starts at the gametree. The location of the node must be exact or you will return an Invalid Reference! | |
86 | |
87 A Root Reference uses this syntax: | |
88 !@Node::Child::Data@! | |
89 | |
90 Child Reference: | |
91 A node reference syntax that starts by looking at within the current container node. As long as the Child Reference is in the same container as the node, the container can change location and the reference will not be damaged. Child References work from within a PC Sheet node as well. | |
92 | |
93 A Child Reference uses this syntax: | |
94 !!Node::Child::Data!! | |
95 | |
96 Parent Reference: | |
97 A node reference syntax that starts by looking at the tree map and the reference used, then makes an addendum to the node's map to create a reference. The Parent Node is used when you want to reference the data in a node that is within a different container. Currently Parent References only work if they are used as a reference within a node. | |
98 | |
99 A Parent Reference uses this syntax: | |
100 !#Node::Child::Data#! | |
101 | |
102 Syntax for Special PC Sheet Nodes: | |
103 The nodes for the specialized PC Sheets now have a new syntax. | |
104 | |
105 Skills, Saves, and Abilities: | |
106 Skills, Saves, and Abilities all have a similar referencing syntax. You can return the base value of each by using the correct syntax. | |
107 | |
108 Examples: | |
109 !@Jonethan::Skill::Jump@! (Returns Jump ranks) | |
110 !@Mikael::Strength@! (Returns Ability Score and Mod) | |
111 !@Draj::Will@! (Returns Will Save and Mod) | |
112 | |
113 (Saves and Abilities have a short hand and a long hand. Abilities can use the three letter abbreviation, while saves short hand are Fort, Ref, and Will) | |
114 | |
115 You can append Check to check each of these against a 1d20 roll, or you can append Mod to discover the Modifier. The Mod can be useful in other nodes | |
116 | |
117 Combat: | |
118 You can now reference your attacks easily with the gametree. Using the Attack syntax you can select modifier type, and a weapon to attack with. | |
119 Example: !@Kammen-Pai::Attack::M::Dagger@! | |
120 | |
121 Modifier Type: | |
122 There are two modifier types Melee (M) or Ranged (R) You will see I added can use the long word or the short hand. | |
123 | |
124 Powers, Spells and Feats: | |
125 Power, Spells and Feats are hard to sometimes hard to remember, and even harder to code. The use of the Power, Spell or Feat syntax serves as an emote of what you are doing, as well as a reminder of what your Power, Spell, or Feat does. | |
126 | |
127 Examples: | |
128 !@Kammen-Pai::Cast::Ray of Frost@! | |
129 !@Kammen-Pai::Feat::Ability Focus@! | |
130 | |

132 <text multiline="1" send_button="0">In Traipse starting a server has never been easier. The setup is as easy as 1., 2., 3 | |
133 | |
134 1. You will need to first start the Server GUI or the basic text based Server at least once so your software creates the server_ini.xml files in your myfiles directory. You can start it once and quit. | |
135 | |
136 2. Edit the server_ini.xml file. Here you can set the server's name, the boot password, and even set the servers port. | |
137 | |
138 Traipse allows you to specify a server port instead of the software demanding port 6774. | |
139 | |
140 3. This is the hardest step. You need to make sure your selected port is forwarded by your router and open to your firewall. | |
141 | |
142 That's it! You can now start the server and register it to the meta for all users to enjoy!</text> | |

83 <nodehandler class="textctrl_handler" frame="400,400,393,95" icon="note" map="Traipse OpenRPG::User Manual" module="forms" name="Node Referencing" version="1.0"><text hide_title="0" multiline="1" raw_mode="0" send_button="0"> Traipse node referencing is unlike other distributions of OpenRPG. The gametree mapping is a fluid map that changes with the location of your nodes. This allows you to create a reference node that will stay with your character sheet, and if you change the location of your character sheet the reference will still work. | |
84 | |
85 (Note: Renaming your node causes problems with the tree mapping until you restart the software. You can just move the node and the software will reset the gametree map) | |
86 | |
87 Reference Types: | |
88 There are two ways of references node data. A Root Reference and a Child Reference. | |
89 | |
90 Root Reference: | |
91 A node reference that starts at the gametree. The location of the node must be exact or you will return an Invalid Reference! | |
92 | |
93 A Root Reference uses this syntax: | |
94 !@Node::Child::Data@! | |
95 | |
96 Child Reference: | |
97 A node reference syntax that starts by looking at within the current container node. As long as the Child Reference is in the same container as the node, the container can change location and the reference will not be damaged. Child References work from within a PC Sheet node as well. | |
98 | |
99 A Child Reference uses this syntax: | |
100 !!Node::Child::Data!! | |
101 | |
102 Syntax for Special PC Sheet Nodes: | |
103 The nodes for the specialized PC Sheets now have a new syntax. | |
104 | |
105 Skills, Saves, and Abilities: | |
106 Skills, Saves, and Abilities all have a similar referencing syntax. You can return the base value of each by using the correct syntax. | |
107 | |
108 Examples: | |
109 !@Jonethan::Skill::Jump@! (Returns Jump ranks) | |
110 !@Mikael::Strength@! (Returns Ability Score and Mod) | |
111 !@Draj::Will@! (Returns Will Save and Mod) | |
112 | |
113 (Saves and Abilities have a short hand and a long hand. Abilities can use the three letter abbreviation, while saves short hand are Fort, Ref, and Will) | |
114 | |
115 You can append Check to check each of these against a 1d20 roll, or you can append Mod to discover the Modifier. The Mod can be useful in other nodes | |
116 | |
117 Combat: | |
118 You can now reference your attacks easily with the gametree. Using the Attack syntax you can select modifier type, and a weapon to attack with. | |
119 Example: !@Kammen-Pai::Attack::M::Dagger@! | |
120 | |
121 Modifier Type: | |
122 There are two modifier types Melee (M) or Ranged (R) You will see I added can use the long word or the short hand. | |
123 | |
124 Powers, Spells and Feats: | |
125 Power, Spells and Feats are hard to sometimes hard to remember, and even harder to code. The use of the Power, Spell or Feat syntax serves as an emote of what you are doing, as well as a reminder of what your Power, Spell, or Feat does. | |
126 | |
127 Examples: | |
128 !@Kammen-Pai::Cast::Ray of Frost@! | |
129 !@Kammen-Pai::Feat::Ability Focus@! | |
130 | |

Included here is a list of the additions to the gametree referencing model as well as some tips on how to make the gametree work the way it was intended. | |
132 | |
133 Grid Nodes: | |
134 Grid nodes are now referenceable with the coordinates of the grid. Example: !@Grid::(0,0)@! | |
135 The example will return the top left most cell data. The grid understands coordinates like this (Row, Column) | |
136 | |
137 Grid nodes can reference node data just like any other node can. With a new added feature grids are even more useful. By using a new die rolling syntax you can draw just the number of the modified roll. While this will not pass during game play, you can use it with the grid node to create a random chart. The new die roll syntax is [#XdY]. # works just like q, yet it returns only the modified die result. | |
138 | |
139 Here is an example with a 3 x 3 Grid | |
140 Example: !@Grid::([#1d3-1], [#1d3-1])@! | |
141 | |
142 The result will be a random event from the grid. | |
143 | |
144 Bonus Node Included: A 52 Card Deck with 4 columns and 13 rows. (4 * 13 = 52) | |
145 | |
146 List Nodes: | |
147 List nodes now have a check box that allows users to send the content as a macro. List nodes are a prime reference holder because users can place a lot of references into one small node. | |
148 | |
149 For the best results from a list node my tip to users would be to create a list node and place it next to the character sheet they are using, inside a the PC Sheet. The list will then use the Child Referencing syntax, but the PC Sheet can go anywhere in the tree and the player will have easy access to all the references. | |
150 | |
151 (List Nodes inside a Tool created PC sheet vanish when moved, or I would recommend the list be placed inside these sheets also.) | |
152 | |
153 Here is an example of a Fortitude save inside the recommended list node: !!Fort::Check!! | |
154 | |
155 Text Nodes: | |
156 Text nodes remain little changed. I agree with all the 1.7.1 users who tell me, if it's not broke don't fix it. With that in mind I have some good tips for text nodes. | |
157 | |
158 Text nodes can be used in conjuction with the new grid features to create random encounters. A GM could place a list of text nodes into a folder and the grid could reference the nodes. | |
159 | |
160 Text nodes also work great when you need to have story text at hand that you don't want to type out during play. Create chapters with folder nodes and add the adventure text to different nodes. You can then use a List Node or a Grid Node to reference the different chapters. | |
161 | |
162 Bonus Node Included: A small book node with 1 Chapter and 3 Parts.</text></nodehandler><group_atts border="1" cols="1" /> | |
