Class SimulationClient
In: daimoku-server/simulationclient.rb
Parent: Object

The SimulationClient handles the login of the Player and also creates the various Objects that the Player uses for IO, for the Simulation to use for output to the Player, and for the CharacterProxy object which serves as the proxy to the Simulation.

Public Class methods

peer_connections()

Other parts of the system will need access to the peer simulation clients to send output to the clients via their sockets

Public Instance methods

build_character_object()

Builds the Character object, used inside the Matrix as to manipulate and query the database.

build_matrix_io_object()

Builds the IO Object to handle messages from the Matrix to the Player

build_player_io_object(character_proxy)

Builds the Player‘s IO object. The Player needs an IO object because Kernel.puts is not available while inside the Matrix

down()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going down

drop(name)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for dropping an object

east()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going east

emote(text)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for emoting to the room

examine(name)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for eating an object

exits()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for listing exits

inventory()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for cataloging inventory

io()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for getting the IO object name

login?(socket)

Login the Player and create the game Objects. The game Objects are needed to provide Player IO, to provide a way for the Matrix to send output to the Player, and for the CharacterProxy to interface to the Matrix.

look()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for looking around

north()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going north

punch(name)

Called by the Agent IRB

query(client)

The login process. Returns nil if the login fails.

randid()

Creates a random alphanumeric string. Uses as part of the session id of the Player.

randid_lc()

Creates a random alphanumeric string. Uses as a local variable

randnum()

Creates a random alphanumeric number. Used as part of the naming of the player‘s IO object

say(text)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for speaking to the room

say_code(code)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for sharing code

south()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going south

system_cleanup()

Called by the CharacterProxy, as part of clean up when a Player is reaped.

take(name)

Called by the SimulationIRB, for taking an object

teleport(room_uniqueid)

Called by the Agent IRB

try(verb, text)

Try to trampoline to items within the room

up()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going up

west()

Called by the SimulationIRB, for going west
