I know the standard NWN crafting isn't the best out there, but it isn't awful for basic items. I tried playing with UO and CNR, and I found them both unsuitable for my purposes. There has been several ones out there, but like Shadoow said a lot of them have some issues. But you can always make materials non-skill based and restrict their occurence on hostile areas. I think gather is a part of the CNR, its a repeatable skill that allows to get mushrooms. Still you end up this overabundance soon or later which is why I decided to go player skill based craft system where players will do items only when they need to opposed to creating 100 bronze longswords to be able to craft silver ones.Īs for you question about gathering system.
To eliminate this, having 3step craft procedure where each step can destroy material and give rank is of course slightly better option as you get less final items thus the impact on economy is lower. Players are creating too much items to get rank higher, items that nobody wants, items that there is not enough need. While ATS (and UO) is simpler, one placeable that checks all materials, and just execute one procedure and you get final item.įirst method is more real, but its so much labour intensive to add new items and takes so long to do for players (which can be viewed both as advantage and disadvantage though).Īnother thing related to this is that these crafting system often ends up with broken ekonomy. Each procedure can fail, each procedure can raise craft skill. Each will create a subproduct till you get the final item. I mean that to craft an item you need to use 3 different placeables. I might share mine though, but its unfinished and it relies on character skill not imaginary repeating skill like all other crafting system works on. Im sure you can see other crafting systems on various PW but they are private and they wont share it. But the time essentially mean that you either start crafting and go afk or log off and when you get back it will be done. Basically you can craft any magic item you find, to do that, you need to make a recipe from it via spell (thus only spellcasters can craft which is my main concern on this craft) and then you can craft unlimited number of copies, it only takes time and gold. Honorable mention: PRC craft - this is a bit different style, I was using PRC and I tried it but its too simple to do and too beneficial for player. I dont recall crafting procedures nor scripting behind though. It might be much more efficient but graphically its not pretty and in my opinion its not worth it. While this method is original and avoid the conversation issues which can happen with lags, its not very usr friendly and it looks quite bad in the end. Ultima Online craft system - cant recommend, it uses different method of product selection via inventory of the placeable. This did not suited me, but might suit you. There is too many crafts some are less useful, there is too many placeables and too many operating procedures to do to craft a single thing. Other than that its easy to work with and fairly reliable and user friendly.ĬNR - well executed, using standard methods, but a bit too fussy.
Ambrosia Tradeskill System ATS - this one is very old, relatively simple, using standard methods (conversation) but very poorly executed, those who has it said the scripting behind is a mess, thousands of scripts, hard to modify anything, hard to work with it on a advanced level where you would want to change the system not items/materials.
