This page is for the developers to discuss, debate, and collaborate on the in-process dynamic task system. To start I'll outline that various sections that I think we will need to interact with and then list the expected interactions there of.
Contents |
Incarnos
- ability to store gathered tasks
- ability to show and retrieve information on stored tasks via show?
Autonomon
- ability to know it's a task granter
- ability to poll for available, and suitable, tasks
- ability to respond to queries for available tasks
- ability to describe available tasks to incarnoi
- ability to evaluate progress of an incarnoi's relevant task
- ability to complete and reward an incarnoi who completes a relevant task
Task Daemon
- broker for task type definitions
- stores all tasks? ever? (database interaction?) at minimum, provides ability to specify an incarnos/autonomon/unique-tag and find out what active tasks in the MUD it is involved with and what roles it has in them
