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 StdCharClass

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()

endCharacter

public void endCharacter(MOB mob)

Description copied from interface: CharClass

Called when a class is no longer the current dominant class of a player or mob, usually during class training.

Specified by:

endCharacter in interface CharClass

Overrides:

endCharacter in class StdCharClass

Parameters:

mob - the mob whose career to end or put aside

executeMsg

public void executeMsg(Environmental myHost,
                       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 Thief

Parameters:

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

msg - the CMMsg that needs to be executed

See Also:

CMMsg

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 StdCharClass

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

Tickable, ServiceEngine, TickableGroup

affectCharStats

public void affectCharStats(MOB affected,
                            CharStats affectableStats)

Description copied from interface: StatsAffecting

This method is called by the recoverCharStats() method on other MOB objects. It is used to transform the MOB baseCharStats() object into a finished charStats() object, both of which are objects implementing the CharStats interface. See those methods for more information.

Specified by:

affectCharStats in interface StatsAffecting

Overrides:

affectCharStats in class StdCharClass

Parameters:

affected - the host of the CharStats object being affected

affectableStats - the particular CharStats object being affected
