Creation/New Player Development Guide

From Graal Bible

Welcome to the New Player Development Guide!

This guide is meant to assist new players of Graal in finding a fun development project to help with. Playing Graal is fun, but when you created part of the world it is much more rewarding. The goal of this guide is to help new and existing players enter the world of developing their own content on Graal.

The Basics

Graal is made up of three main development communities:

The script makers

The level makers

The graphic makers

A playerworld project generally consists of at least a few people from each category. Some highly skilled people will help on several projects.

Scripting

Skyld, part of the Global Scripting Team has written a decent introduction to scripting found at GScript for Dummies.

GScript is a function based language which has many pre-defined functions triggered by game events, such as a player touching an NPC or chatting a word/phrase. Users may also create their own functions, which allows extremely flexible creation using GScript.

Notes

Very small start, not even a complete outline yet.

Players: If you seek what this guide may some day hold, check Creation as a good starting point.
