Method Detail

ID

public java.lang.String ID()

Description copied from interface: CMObject

The CoffeeMud Java Class ID shared by all instances of this object. Unlike the Java Class name, this method does not include package information. However, it must return a String value unique to its class category in the ClassLoader. Class categories include Libraries, Common, Areas, Abilities, Behaviors, CharClasses, Commands, Exits Locales, MOBS, Races, WebMacros, Basic Items, Armor, Weapons, ClanItems, Tech. The name is typically identical to the class name.

Specified by:

ID in interface CMObject

Overrides:

ID in class StdBehavior

Returns:

the name of this class

accountForYourself

public java.lang.String accountForYourself()

Description copied from interface: Behavior

Returns a string describing what this behavior does. Mostly for thought and behavior reading systems.

Specified by:

accountForYourself in interface Behavior

Overrides:

accountForYourself in class StdBehavior

Returns:

a string describing what this behavior does.

setPrice

public void setPrice(java.lang.String s)

setMinutes

public void setMinutes(java.lang.String s)

setParms

public void setParms(java.lang.String newParms)

Description copied from interface: Behavior

Sets the raw parameter string for this behavior. Parameters are meant to modify or specify specific behavior of this Behavior.

Specified by:

setParms in interface Behavior

Overrides:

setParms in class StdBehavior

Parameters:

newParms - the parameter string for this behavior

See Also:

Behavior.getParms()

price

protected double price()

minutes

protected int minutes()

zapper

protected java.lang.String zapper()

gamehours

protected double gamehours()

allDone

public void allDone(MOB observer)

tick

public boolean tick(Tickable ticking,
                    int tickID)

Description copied from interface: Tickable

this is the method which is called periodically by the threading engine. How often it is called depends on the parameters passed to the threadding engine when it is submitted for thread access. Typically the period is once per TIME_TICK period, but that is determined when the object is submitted to the thread engine.

Specified by:

tick in interface Tickable

Overrides:

tick in class StdBehavior

Parameters:

ticking - a reference to this Tickable object

tickID - the TICKID_ constant describing this periodic call, as defined in Tickable

Returns:

true always, unless this object no longer wishes to ever tick again, in which case false

See Also:

Tickable, ServiceEngine, TickableGroup

okMessage

public boolean okMessage(Environmental host,
                         CMMsg msg)

Description copied from interface: MsgListener

The general message event previewer for the object. Messages passed herein are in a pending state, and may be safely modified or rejected without fear that they might be in the middle of being executed. Messages passed herein may not necessarily be FOR or FROM this object, but will almost always represent events which want to happen in the same rom. This method should always always return true UNLESS this message needs to be canceled, in which case it is necessary to tell the mob initiating the event (CMMsg.source()) why it is being cancelled. Every game event goes through these methods.

Specified by:

okMessage in interface MsgListener

Overrides:

okMessage in class StdBehavior

Parameters:

host - either the initiator of the event, or the host of this object

msg - the CMMsg that wants to be executed

Returns:

whether this message is allowed to execute

See Also:

CMMsg, CMMsg.source()

executeMsg

public void executeMsg(Environmental affecting,
                       CMMsg msg)

Description copied from interface: MsgListener

The general message event handler for the object. Messages passed herein may not necessarily be FOR this object, or from it, but will almost always represent events happening in the same room. The messages have already been through an approval process, so this method is called only to affect the final execution of the meaning of the message. Every game event goes through these methods.

Specified by:

executeMsg in interface MsgListener

Overrides:

executeMsg in class StdBehavior

Parameters:

affecting - either the initiator of the event, or the host of this object

msg - the CMMsg that needs to be executed

See Also:

CMMsg
