OS: Millennium How Crafting Works
From OtherVerse Wiki
Contents |
[edit] Overview
In the them of OtherSpace: Millennium, it's possible to craft many things, including food, armor, weapons, tools, and more.
Granted, it's also possible to buy some of these items, but there's no substitute for the feeling of making a weapon with your own two hands and maybe even giving it a customized description before putting it up for sale.
Some things you'll need for crafting:
- Crafting Skills: The better your Gunsmithing skill, the better quality weapons you make.
- Craftlevel Points: Things become easier to craft with experience. You can improve this ranking by making items of Good or better quality, completing crafting quests, or spending crafting minutes on special crafting-focused MUDQuests. Type +experts in-game to see where you stand. If you become an Adept then your character's Wiki page is eligible for a Michelangelo Badge!
- Crafting Minutes: These are earned while you're online and active, maxing out at 5760.
- Crafting Components: Some are acquired nodes using the crafting system, and others may be purchased from other characters or vendors.
- Crafting Recipes: Some can be purchased from vendors, but others are rare and must be earned.
- Crafting Equipment: If you're making guns, you'll need access to a gunsmithing kit (which may be purchased from some vendors). If you try to +craft something without the right tools, the system should prod you with information about the kind of tool required.
[edit] How It Works
Once you've got the skill, the recipe, the components, the crafting minutes, and the proper tools, the command to make something is rather straightforward:
+craft <item>
Using this command should consume the components and crafting minutes while depositing the item in the room where your character is located. For most items, you then just +get <item> to pick it up. For some items, such as wagons and storage lockers, they're often too heavy for you to lift. So, it's vital that you +craft those where you want them to go.
If you want to customize an object with a special description, you can! Use +craft/desc <item>=<new text> for the description. NOTE: Just because you describe a sword as having the power to slaughter armies in a single stroke doesn't make it so. Changing the description does not alter the item's inherent attributes.
If you want to give an object a unique name, you can do that too! Use +craft/name <item>=<new text> for the name. NOTE: Just because you name a bear flank steak SWORD OF THE MIGHTIEST MIGHT doesn't make it so. Changing the name does not alter the item's inherent attributes.
[edit] Earning Crafting Minutes
Characters on OtherSpace: Millennium earn minutes for crafting (up to 5760) just by being online and on the IC grid.
[edit] Crafting Quests
Some NPCs offer quests that are geared specifically to crafters. These quests will offer payment in the form of credits and craftlevel points, usually, although some deliver credits and XP instead.
