@some1and2's RPG discord bot

A discord bot developed by @some1and2 the aims to function as an RPG within the format of a discord bot

Functionality

• Map System

  • The bot has a system which has a json file that has all the map information on it
  • The map works by holding nestled dictionaries that functonally work as directories that lead to the backend names of NPC's

• Various NPC's

  • The bot uses the backend names of NPC's to index them from the items.plk file to create NPC objects
  • These NPC objects are based on classes which come in a few forms:
    • Shop
    • Text
    • Enemy
  • These NPC's use the interaction variables set to respond to when they are called

• Menu System

  • The bot also sports a top of the line menu
  • Menu uses menu buttons to cycle through different types of inventories the player has
  • Menu displays important information such as how much cash (the in game currency) a particular player has as well as how much xp each player has

• Combat System

  • No RPG is complete without a combat system!
  • The combat system thus far is fairly basic, you have a health amount, based on the amount of health xp you have
  • The amount of damage is dependent on the weapon selected, the menu for the combat system has options for various kinds of melee combat weapons
  • After an enemy dies, it drops an amount of cash which is preset in the items.plk file
  • it also either drops the weapon is uses, unless the player already has its weapon in which case it drops that weapons corresponding cash value (also set in items.plk)

• Leveling System

  • The bot has an exponential leveling system designed to make it harder to get higher of a level the more xp you have
  • The level is calculated by the cumulative amount of xp a player has and is generally calculated on the fly [the player level is not stored anywhere, the xp is]

Basic Structure of Files::

botCV.py

• The configuration of the discord.py elements as well as settings up how the bot will reaction to messages is mostly set in the botCV.py file.
• Most commands use IfCommand() function, the basic use is to see if a message starts with a certain string, returning True if it does.
• The majority of the work to corrdinate responces is done by the back end instead of by the botCV.py file

NPC.py

• Each type of NPC in the NPC.py file works by having two classes and a function attached to them
• The main class that is made for each type of NPC has most of the class information
• The main class calls the Get Text function associated with the NPC type to attach text as an attribute of the main class
• The secondary class for each NPC is the class for the NPC's buttons
• The NPC's button class works by responding to actions taken by a user
• The button reconstructs a new main NPC class to resend a new message [With changed data from the Old NPC class]
