Installing Arxcode?

All items need to be added via the admin panel on the website. So, players can’t really use it as something to craft without putting in a request for their cool item to be added
Very true, but that’s still a potentially viable option.
There’s all kinds of potential implementations here, from total honor system, to a +request driven inventory system, to a full-fledged crafting system. You could also do a hybrid, like extending simpleinventory or the existing desc plugin without going full-bore crafting code.

I play 99.5% through the portal, never look at people’s descs, and would have no idea if they had pretty colored clothes or not.
You can still see peoples’ descs on the portal, but I don’t know how many actually care to look.
(Though from my adesc, I’m not sure how many bother to look in-client either. YMMV.) -
If I recall @Jumpscare did something with Evennia that has a good crafting system. I didn’t roll a crafter on Silent Heaven when I did (Simon was a disgraced med student), but it looked super cool. Maybe that might be compatible?

Well, that’s just rude. We took the time to write the damn things.

@Pavel That’s what you think. I’ve seen some ChatGPT in my day.

@Tez Well. We took the time to copy and paste them!

@Tez I’ve seen some TezGPT too. For reasonable rates, I hear.

… unrelated, but not me side-eyeing code again to try and get an L5R thingy going again.

@bear_necessities Right, using ares I would drop the visual part of pretty clothing and items would become props that add modifiers to rolls rather than an art form.

@Cobalt art sucks no one looks at art

Alas, as is outlined in the old tutorial, Arxcode is maintained by the Arx folks and not by Evennia devs.
I wrote that tutorial as a service back then when it made sense (and it did indeed easily install at the time, promise!) … but at this point I don’t think ArxCode has kept up with Evennia development (it was using an old Evennia version already when it was created, it’s even still on Python2).
I’ll check in with Tehom if there are plans to update the tutorial (or Arxcode).

I could pull out my crafting code and allow you all to shred it to bits.
I’m mired in to-dos, but remind me in about a week and I’ll look into it.
