Proc:Vault

Overview

The vault procedure allows players establish their own customizable rooms and to store items in vaults. Vault rooms are created by Proc:Neighborhood when a player issues a BUILD command.

KVP

The vault proc uses KVP to store some values related to the capabilities of the vault. These KVP values are:

Upgrading from Old Code

The steps required to upgrade a vault from the old code are:

1. Have the player empty the vault
2. UPGRADE! VAULT <player>
3. UNLOCK VAULT
4. Have the player put their items back in the vault
5. Have the player lock vault <new combination>

It may be easier for the immortal to handle emptying the vault and then putting the items back in. If the immortal has an empty inventory at the start, the items can be deposited via DEPOSIT ALL. Also, mortals will be unable to deposit personal items belonging to alt characters.

If the player has purchased a say recall trigger, you will need to:

1. HOUSE UPGRADE RECALL
2. Purge the invisible object in the room providing the old trigger.
3. ZONE DELETE the command creating the invisible trigger object.
4. SAVEAREA
5. Go outside the vault and purge the invisible trigger object if it exists.

If the player has purchased keyless entry, you will need to:

1. HOUSE UPGRADE KEYLESS <keyphrase>
2. HOUSE PERMIT for each additional player with access to the house.
3. HOUSE SET <message name> <message> for any custom teleportation messages.
4. Purge the invisible object in the room providing the old trigger.
5. ZONE DELETE the command creating the invisible trigger object.
6. SAVEAREA
7. Go outside the vault and purge the invisible trigger object if it exists.
