Simple custom skill - Cooking example

[kor]

Hello.

I would like to share my point of view for creating custom skill without touching server engine code. First, here is how it look like in game:



and the code:
1. OTClient
Comparing main...feature/cooking · rookgaard/otclient (https://github.com/rookgaard/otclient/compare/main...feature/cooking)
2. Datapack

Comparing master...feature/cooking · rookgaard/forgottenserver

A free and open-source MMORPG server emulator written in C++ - Comparing master...feature/cooking · rookgaard/forgottenserver

github.com

To increase cooking value you have to call Cooking.add(player, X) in any place of your code.

Enjoy!

FYI you can move skills opcode into Lua module in v8 and add new skills there. No need to add some hacky extended opcodes or something.

add new skills there

It requires client source edit to read additional skill bytes?

No... If it required any client source edits I would have mentioned that.

Well, I'm not familiar with otcv8 so I proposed my hacky solution.
