Sharing a book

[Sirius]

Ok, last time I went on DI was long ago, so correct me if I'm wrong, but I remember a problem...

When you want to invite someone in one of your Age, you can use the KI invite, but you can't use the "share book" icon on a book, nor on a Bahro Stone.

What's is wrong, exactly ? On my offline version I brought back this function, it seems to work, but I can't test it in multiplayer mode and I prefer not to hack DI python files...

Some "Share this book" icons do appear and work, like the Bahro stone from Teledahn for Gahreesen. Together with kaelis, I went through all the bahro stones and individually tested whether sharing would work or not: As it seems, the prp file needs some special preparations for this - a region that says in which area you are allowed to walk while selecting someone to share the book with, and maybe some dedicated trigger/behaviour mod for the sharee. So, I ended up with only some 5 or so stones actually working, unfortunately. Sharing the Relto book is disabled because it crashes everyone who is in the age at the time of the share.

I prefer not to hack DI python files...

I appreciate that

Ah ok, thanks. Do you mean only Bahro Stones, or also Linking Books ? If it is only Bahro stones, leaving the Book share and not the Stone share should be possible ? Or is there a share region problem as well ? Maybe a hack of the xLinkingBookGUIPopup could solve that.

I prefer the offline version for hacking anyway.

The other explorers will thank you for that, as it generally keeps the server more stable if the clients are more uniform

The same issue applies to linking books, and they went through the same procedure. Unfortunately the xLinkingBookGUIPopup is such a mess that I just do not know what exactly is necessary in the prp, or whether it could be hacked. I bet it could be done, somehow, like almost anything
