GenTickerShield

public GenTickerShield()

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 StdElecItem

Returns:

the name of this class

fieldOnStr

protected java.lang.String fieldOnStr(MOB viewerM)

fieldDeadStr

protected java.lang.String fieldDeadStr(MOB viewerM)

getTechType

public Technical.TechType getTechType()

Description copied from interface: Technical

Returns the tech type enum for this technical object, which describes more about its functionality, and is in fact a kind of class proxy. I hope this doesn't bog things down too much.

Specified by:

getTechType in interface Technical

Overrides:

getTechType in class StdElecItem

Returns:

the tech type eum

See Also:

Technical.TechType

setOwner

public void setOwner(ItemPossessor owner)

Description copied from interface: Item

Sets the Room or MOB representing where this item is located. Containers are handled by another pointer, container(), so those two methods be used together to determine where a given item is. This method is called by the addItem method on mobs and the addItem interface on Rooms. Alone, this method is insufficient to properly determine an items location, so one of the two above should be called instead.

Specified by:

setOwner in interface Item

Overrides:

setOwner in class StdItem

Parameters:

owner - the mob or room where the item is located

See Also:

ItemCollection.addItem(Item)

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 StdItem

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 myHost,
                         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 StdItem

Parameters:

myHost - 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()

getSizingDeviation

public Armor.SizeDeviation getSizingDeviation(MOB mob)

Description copied from interface: Armor

Returns a coded description of how well this item fits on the given mob. See the SizeDeviation object for more information on the responses.

Specified by:

getSizingDeviation in interface Armor

Parameters:

mob - the mob to compare the fittability of this armor to

Returns:

a coded description of how well this item fits

See Also:

Armor.SizeDeviation

executeMsg

public void executeMsg(Environmental host,
                       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 StdItem

Parameters:

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

msg - the CMMsg that needs to be executed

See Also:

CMMsg

getClothingLayer

public short getClothingLayer()

Description copied from interface: Armor

Returns the layer at which this item is worn. 0 is the baseline layer, while larger than 0 is things like coats and shawls, where less than 0 are things like underwear and hose.

Specified by:

public short getLayerAttributes()

Description copied from interface: Armor

Returns the bitmask for the several layer attribute flags. See the flags for more information on what they do.

Specified by:

getLayerAttributes in interface Armor

canWear

public boolean canWear(MOB mob,
                       long where)

Description copied from interface: Wearable

Returns whether it is practical for the given mob to wear this Item on the given worn location as given by the wornCode. The method checks for existing limbs and wear locations, and for items already being worn by the mob, and finally determines if the worn location given by the wornCode is among the available slots.

Specified by:

canWear in interface Wearable

Overrides:

canWear in class StdItem

Parameters:

mob - the player or mob being evaluated

where - the worn location to check and see if this Item can be worn there.

Returns:

whether this item can be worn by the given player at the given wornCode

See Also:

Item

isGeneric

public boolean isGeneric()

Description copied from interface: Environmental

Whether the fields of this item are set in code, or set by builders. Generic means that they are set by builders, in which case XML is returned by the text() method containing all of the values for all the fields.

Specified by:

isGeneric in interface Environmental

Overrides:

isGeneric in class StdItem

Returns:

whether this item is modifiable by builders

See Also:

Environmental.text()

text

public java.lang.String text()

Description copied from interface: Environmental

For objects which have false for their isGeneric method, this is used to set any internally coded strings to change the nature or behavior of the object. For objects which have true for their isGeneric method, this is used to set and parse the XML which will be used to fill out the fields in this object. Since Ability objects are never Generic, this will always be where parameters are read from an Ability instance.

Specified by:

text in interface Environmental

Overrides:

text in class StdItem

Returns:

either an open internal text string, or XML

readableText

public java.lang.String readableText()

Description copied from interface: Readable
