RPG Alpha Release

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

This is as good a time as any. The RPG module is in official Alpha. You can make characters, walk around, and pick up & drop objects now. The rest is window dressing... ;) I've attached a screenshot here.

You can make a character at DrupalRPG.org. If you do, some caveats: [EDIT] set the 'PC' attribute to your user uid on the character creation page[/EDIT]; make sure to set a location to one of the two rooms currently available; when you walk around, the messages don't work entirely. If you take something, make sure you leave things on the floor for other people to take.

There's only a few rooms right now, and a few objects. Things will probably get cluttered very quickly as people make characters and objects, so I'll probably have to do some housecleaning soon.

I'm officially supporting updates to the db now. So it should be safe to install on your own test servers now. I'll make sure to write update scripts as needed; there's already a couple in there. If you have installed an older version, the update might not work. In that case, you'd need to wipe out the rpg tables and start over. (Ask me if you need help with that.)

Next on my plate is adding some jquery to keep the screen from getting too cluttered; continue working on skills so we can have some snowball fights; vamping up the character creation process; integrate RPG with nodes so we can use views if desired; add graphical support; work more on the admin screens. Roughly in that order.

Enjoy!
