| Subject | re dinadin |
| Technically it's something that could be coded to be possible, but it's not something that we could easily do with the framework that is currently in place. Right now when you create a character, a new text file is created that contains all of the information about your character. Think of it like a table with 2 columns. One with an identifier field, one with a value. Name Dinadin Level 100 etc. When you delete a character, the text file (pfile) is deleted. We'd have to setup some kind of database to track whether or not a character existed, or we'd have to write a bunch of code to delete everything in the pfile except your name, add a field that says "recreation count : 1", and rewrite the login code to check to see if your pfile needs to go into creation mode, or into game-login. At least those are the only options that I can think of. What would be the point anyway? |
