Hi everyone!

I'm new to OT and I'm trying to host a server everything works very well! ; )

I have two questions please help me out:

1. I'm collaborating with a fellow who has played this game for more than a decade and there is a minor thing that is referred to as "emoteSpells" which should be a setting in the config.lua file if I'm not mistaking. This setting would prevent spam in the chat window ingame, and would make spell cast "keywords" orange. I tryed adding this "emoteSpells=true" to my config.lua with no luck. However I found that this solution was way back in the day, years before, I thought there might be another solution for the almost-latest-version (9.86).

2. Setting up the OT database is easy but I'm not sure what values to insert. For example I'm not sure what the TYPE column should contain for players or accounts in order to make valid GM. Is there any simple documentation that lists there enumerations so I don't have to try all of them? I did not find that in the documentation files or in the sources. Note that this is not only the case for GM this is just an example, anything like this should be interesting. I understand the concept of manipulating the all config files on server side.

That is all thank you in advance.
 
Thanks a lot for the attention! Actually I think I've tried emoteSpells = "yes" I just typed it wrong in the question because I'M a programmer and there is not "yes" only "true".. : D Anyway sorry about that I believe I have tried it with no luck, pretty disappointing I'll give another shot anyway this evening. Thanks a lot for the tutorial link, the table columns explained wil surely help a lot!
 
So i figured.. : ( So I have to alter the source and compile myself?

- - - Updated - - -

I need further help I am afraid. The description of these tables are pretty much useless I'm afraid no offense to anyone, but if a column contains account types for example, I'd like know what types are there what values can be inserted in the table.

Anyway for now all I need is a valid GM account including everything 1 GROUP record with all viable values, 1 ACCOUNT record with the group and 1 PLAYER record with the group and record. Please help, all I need is a valid GM, with valid flags, all permissions will do fine. : )
